What TJR Teaches
His free Boot Camp playlist is the usual starting point, with day-by-day lessons on taking action, candlesticks, discipline, trends, goal setting and break of structure. Recent uploads cover:
- Price action and structure: break of structure, liquidity and fair value gaps (the basics are in our candlestick patterns guide)
- Funded accounts: beginner guides to passing prop firm evaluations (compare our how to pass a prop firm challenge guide)
- Psychology: long-form trading psychology and advice videos (see trading psychology for futures traders)
- Lifestyle vlogs: travel and spending videos with dollar figures in the titles
Liquidity and fair value gaps are also the core vocabulary of ICT-based education such as PB Trading, co-founded by PB Blake, which packages them into a mechanical model for prop firm accounts. Traders who want the volume side of the same levels can compare Andrea Cimi's order-flow and volume profile lessons.
Are TJR's Trading Results Verified?
His video titles make large income claims, such as "5 Tips That Made Me 20 Million At 24" and "How I Made $1,047,984 In 6 Months Of Day Trading". These figures are self-reported. FuturesHive hasn't seen audited or broker-verified statements. TJR LLC's own site carries an income disclaimer saying it makes no promise of future earnings. Disclaimers like this are standard in trading education: Craig Percoco's Inevitrade, another large day-trading YouTube business, states that his results are not typical and that most day traders are not profitable.
If you want a benchmark for verifiable results, compare public competition records like Fabio Valentini's Robbins World Cup placings.
Killtec: The Streetwear Brand
Killtec is a streetwear label led by TJR and creator Cxrson, according to Persius, the agency behind its branding and website. Persius says it designed billboard ads that ran on the Nasdaq and Midtown Financial buildings in Times Square. In a June 2025 post on X, TJR called Killtec his "retirement play" and an "exit play" alongside trading. He said he started it about a year earlier and that its first two drops sold out within hours.
