Side note. Oh, BTW, in case you haven't noticed ... WWIII is setting up. (while we all obsess over quarter point rate cuts)

Truer words have never been spoken. It’s not just about getting “there” (wherever that may be for you) but it’s about staying “there”.
The Hidden Challenge of Trading Success Most new traders actually perform better when they’re coming off failures. No one really talks about this “why,” but it’s at the core of why building a trading career is so hard. Trading isn’t just about making money, it’s about learning

There is so much nonsense on FinX. The truth is 90% of traders fail. Out of the 10% that don’t fail most breakeven. 2-3% of traders will be long term profitable traders. Don’t follow people that sell a dream or a false reality. It is is very difficult but it is possible to be

Words to take to heart
Every day, struggling traders are bombarded with posts showing big profits and it messes with their heads. They likely raise their expectations, start chasing, and end up blowing accounts. I love seeing traders make money and I root for everyone in this business, and I’ve been

Be careful buying dips. If we take out the low of the quarter in ES 5509 or NQ 19139 on the last day of the quarter that will not be good.

Limit the distractions. There are many different interpretations of charts, strategies, and indicators. Information overload is definitely a thing can often be crippling. Find what works for you, develop your plan, and carry on.
The futures markets have never been more accessible or full of opportunity than they are today. With evaluation programs, legitimate prop firms, low margins, and cutting-edge execution tools, the barriers to entry have never been lower. Back in the ‘90s when I started trading,

I’ll never forget my first big trading day, making $100K—it was a milestone moment, and I couldn’t have been more excited. I was around 27 or 28 years old, and the S&P had only a 15-point range. Back then, that was an active day but nothing out of the ordinary. Still, I executed

If you’re a trader who’s having success and making money, you need to keep your head down. Don’t talk about it; keep pressing and saving. This business is different from any other. When you’re doing well, you need to keep pressing and saving because, unfortunately, a drawdown is

“Roaring Kitty Made $300 Million” This type of headline is why traders stay broke. They get FOMO and will try to buy the stock at all time highs. $GME is down 45% from yesterday’s highs. Personally, I much rather stay in my own lane and compound daily. Took 1 stress free

Here we find ourselves… If it doesn’t fit the script just remove it 🤦🏻♀️
Everyone knows CPI coming out Wednesday May 15. What you may not have realized is there was significant increase in coffee prices from March - May, 2024. So instead of reporting it, they remove it from the index. That's one way to do it. Yellen's version of YenTervention is

Don’t trade what the market SHOULD be doing; trade what the market IS doing. Bias will slowly drain your account and keep you consistently on the wrong side of trades.

As posted, everyday brings new headlines for traders to obsess & lots this week with FOMC/banks For day traders, surest way to lose is chasing same transient narrative-of-the-day/sentiment everyone else is. Tune out the news; focus on price, lvls, process. Easier/more lucrative
With all the SVB talk & two way vol likely, key to remember: If market timing was easy as trading headlines or the popular current narrative, everyone would be very wealthy. Opposite usually true For traders, tuning out the crowd & staying glued to price/your setups is skill #1

I never realized just how specific trading is to each individual. It’s important to find what works for you, your schedule, your lifestyle. Instead of strategy hoping find what you like and master that. You’ll drive yourself crazy trying to do it all.

The mentality that it takes to be a successful trader is the most difficult aspect of trading, IMO. The past year has been a rough one for me. I was applying old methods to a new market. Tip toeing back in and the single most important change I needed to make was mindset.
The more I trade, the more I learn that this is a mental game. How to Boost + Protect Your Mental Capital 🪡 A thread:
