PB Trading: The Dynamic Duo (Blake & Patrick)

PB Trading was founded in March 2023 by Blake and Patrick with a clear mission: help traders master the markets and, more importantly, master themselves. The partnership combines complementary skills and personalities to create a well-rounded educational platform.

The PB Trading Mission:

"Master the markets. Master yourself."

Education + Entertainment: Make learning engaging through humor and personality
Community-First: Build supportive environment where traders help each other grow
NQ Futures Focus: Specialize in one high-liquidity market to develop deep expertise
Live Trading Transparency: Show real trades in real-time, not just cherry-picked winners
Accessible to All: Welcome beginners while providing advanced strategies for experienced traders
Psychology & Technical: Balance mental game with technical analysis skills

Blake & Patrick: The Partnership

The Blake and Patrick partnership creates a dynamic teaching environment where different styles and perspectives complement each other. While both are NQ futures specialists, they each bring unique strengths to the community:

Different Trading Styles: Members can learn from multiple approaches to the same market
Complementary Teaching: One might excel at technical breakdowns while the other focuses on psychology
Consistent Coverage: Daily live sessions ensure community always has active leadership
Diverse Perspectives: Two successful traders proving there's no single "right way" to trade

NQ Futures: The Market of Choice

PB Trading specializes in NQ futures—the E-mini NASDAQ-100 futures contract. This focus allows Blake and Patrick to develop deep expertise in one market rather than spreading thin across multiple instruments.

            Why NQ Futures?
            High Liquidity: NQ has the 5th highest trading volume globally and 2nd among stock index futures (after ES), ensuring tight spreads and easy entry/exit
Excellent Volatility: Tech-heavy NASDAQ provides consistent intraday movement for day trading opportunities
Leverage Efficiency: Futures contracts offer leverage, allowing smaller accounts to participate in large-cap tech movement
Extended Hours: Nearly 24-hour trading allows flexibility for different schedules and global events
Micro Contracts (MNQ): Smaller contract size makes NQ accessible to beginners with limited capital
Predictable Patterns: As a widely-traded instrument, NQ develops reliable technical patterns that repeat

        

The Daily NQ Trading Schedule

PB Trading's live trading sessions align with the most active NQ trading hours:

📅 PB Trading Weekly Schedule:

Monday - Friday, 9:30am EST: Live NQ futures trading sessions with Blake and Patrick
Daily (After Market): Trade recaps analyzing what worked, what didn't, and lessons learned
Sunday, 5:00pm EST: Weekly educational session, market outlook for upcoming week, and community Q&A
Ongoing: 1,600+ member community discussing strategies, sharing ideas, and supporting growth

The 9:30am EST start aligns perfectly with market open—when volatility and volume spike, creating the best intraday trading opportunities for NQ futures.

Education Meets Entertainment: The Blake Formula

What sets PB Blake apart from traditional trading educators is his innovative approach to blending education with entertainment. While many educators create dry lectures or dense technical content, Blake has cracked the code on making trading education viral and engaging.

🎭 The Entertainment-Education Blend:

Comedy Skits: Viral TikTok videos like "What Your Chart Colors Say About You" make trading relatable and shareable
Personality-Driven: Blake's authentic personality shines through, making him relatable rather than an unapproachable "guru"
Meme Culture: Leveraging trading memes and inside jokes that resonate with the community
Short-Form Content: TikTok and Instagram-friendly quick tips and insights for attention-span-challenged generation
Behind-the-Scenes: Showing the real, unfiltered trading journey—not just highlight reels
Community Engagement: Responding to comments, creating requested content, and involving community in content creation

Viral TikTok Success

Blake's TikTok presence (@pbblakeofficial) has become a significant part of PB Trading's brand. His comedy skits about trading have gone viral, introducing thousands to trading concepts in digestible, entertaining formats:

"What Your Chart Colors Say About You": Comedy series poking fun at different trader personalities based on their chart aesthetics
Trading Stereotype Skits: Relatable humor about prop firm traders, funded traders, and different trading styles
Day-in-the-Life: Showing what actual day trading looks like, demystifying the process
Quick Educational Tips: 30-60 second technical analysis lessons that pack value into short format

This approach does something critical: it makes trading accessible to people who might be intimidated by traditional finance education. By leading with humor and personality, Blake lowers the barrier to entry and creates interest that eventually converts to serious education.

The Educational Foundation: 300+ Hours of Content

Behind the entertaining exterior lies a robust educational platform with over 300 hours of content. PB Trading doesn't sacrifice substance for style—they deliver both.

Comprehensive Curriculum Covers:

NQ Futures Fundamentals: Understanding the NASDAQ-100 futures contract, margin requirements, tick values, and contract specifications
Technical Analysis: Chart patterns, support/resistance, trendlines, indicators, and multi-timeframe analysis specific to NQ
Trading Psychology: Managing emotions, dealing with losses, developing discipline, and building sustainable trading habits
Risk Management: Position sizing, stop loss placement, risk-reward ratios, and capital preservation
Strategy Development: Building and testing trading strategies, backtesting, forward testing, and optimization
Execution Skills: Order types, entry timing, scaling in/out, and managing open positions
Market Structure: Understanding institutional order flow, market makers, and how NQ moves
Prop Firm Trading: How to pass prop firm challenges and scale funded accounts

Daily Trade Recaps: Learning from Reality

One of the most valuable educational components is the daily trade recaps. After each trading session, Blake and Patrick break down:

What trades were taken and why: Explaining the setup, entry criteria, and thought process
What went right: Analyzing successful trades to reinforce good habits
What went wrong: Honest discussion of mistakes and how to avoid them
Market conditions: How that day's volatility, news, and structure affected trading
Lessons learned: Actionable takeaways members can apply to their own trading

This transparent approach to wins AND losses creates realistic expectations and teaches members that even professional traders have losing trades—it's about overall profitability and process, not perfection.

The Community: 1,600+ Active Traders

At the heart of PB Trading is a thriving community of 1,600+ active traders who support each other's growth, share strategies, and hold each other accountable.

            What Makes the PB Trading Community Special:
            Beginner-Friendly: Experienced members help newcomers, creating supportive rather than competitive environment
Advanced Strategies: While welcoming beginners, community also supports advanced traders with sophisticated discussions

Free vs. Premium Membership

PB Trading offers both free and premium membership tiers on the Whop platform:

Free Tier: Access to basic community, some educational resources, and occasional live sessions—great for testing fit before committing
Premium "1% Mentorship": Full access to live daily trading sessions, 300+ hours of education, all trade recaps, weekly Q&A, and priority support from Blake and Patrick

The free tier allows potential members to experience the community culture and teaching style before investing, reducing risk and building trust.

Trading Philosophy: Mastering Self Before Mastering Markets

The PB Trading motto—"Master the markets. Master yourself."—places equal emphasis on external skill (technical analysis, execution) and internal development (psychology, discipline, emotional control).

The Psychology-First Mindset

Blake and Patrick emphasize that most trading failures stem from psychology, not strategy. Their teaching addresses:

Emotional Regulation: Managing the fear and greed that derail traders
Discipline Development: Executing your plan even when emotions scream otherwise
Patience Cultivation: Waiting for high-probability setups rather than forcing trades
Loss Processing: Healthy ways to handle inevitable losing trades without spiraling
Win Management: Avoiding overconfidence after winning streaks that leads to reckless trading
Identity Beyond Trading: Not tying self-worth to P&L, maintaining healthy perspective

Live Trading: Transparency in Action

The cornerstone of PB Trading's credibility is daily live trading sessions where Blake and Patrick execute real trades with real money in real-time. No cherry-picking winners, no post-hoc explanations—just transparent trading.

            What Happens in Live Trading Sessions:
            Pre-Market Analysis: Review overnight action, key levels, economic calendar, and potential scenarios
Market Open Commentary: Real-time discussion of price action, volume, and developing opportunities
Live Trade Execution: Actual entries with explanation of why, where stop loss is, and target
Trade Management: Showing how to manage positions—when to hold, when to scale out, when to exit
Q&A During Session: Members can ask questions about what they're seeing
Session Recap: Summary of what happened, lessons learned, and key takeaways

        

This transparency builds trust. Members see that Blake and Patrick take losing trades too, manage risk properly, and don't hit home runs every day—they're profitable through consistency and discipline, not magic.

Content Strategy: Multi-Platform Presence

PB Blake has built presence across multiple platforms, meeting traders where they are:

TikTok (@pbblakeofficial): Short-form comedy and educational content, viral marketing, community building
Instagram (@officialpbtrading): Daily market updates, trade highlights, motivational content
YouTube: Full trade recaps, longer educational content, strategy breakdowns
Whop: Primary platform for community, courses, and live sessions

This multi-platform strategy creates a funnel: casual viewers discover Blake through entertaining TikTok content, follow on Instagram for daily insights, watch YouTube for deeper education, and eventually join the paid community for comprehensive mentorship.

Prop Firm Trading: Funded Account Strategies

PB Trading places emphasis on prop firm trading—helping traders get funded through firms like Apex, TopStepTrader, Earn2Trade, and others. This makes sense for their NQ-focused approach, as futures prop firms are abundant and accessible.

The Prop Firm Pathway

Blake and Patrick teach members how to:

Pass Evaluations: Conservative strategies optimized for prop firm rules (profit targets, daily loss limits, consistency requirements)
Manage Funded Accounts: Trading live capital with discipline, avoiding common funded trader mistakes
Scale Accounts: Leveraging scaling plans to grow from $50K to $150K+ funded accounts
Withdraw Profits: Hitting payout thresholds and building sustainable income from prop trading

This prop firm focus is strategic: it allows traders with smaller personal capital to trade larger positions, accelerating learning and income potential.
