In this week's episode of the podcast, Austin Silver sits with Michael Patak, the CEO of ‪@TopstepOfficial‬ ! MP shares a ton of great stories from his days in the pits, how and why founded Topstep, and his biggest tips for becoming a consistently profitable futures trader! Being able to hear his experiences as a trader and as the CEO really helped shed light on all the exciting things to come from Topstep.

Michael began trading at 18, and within a few years, lost $90k. After college, Michael went to work at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). As a new trader, he was forced to trade in a simulated environment with strict guidelines. He began to thrive and became the youngest trader to reach the “Top Step” of the trading pit reserved only for the best traders. He knew his trading path could help others, and set out to create a safer way to become a successful trader. That’s when the vision was born, and Michael got to work bringing Topstep to life as the first and #1 prop firm in the industry!
