Market mania is back. This is when day traders get paid.

Dear Traders,

We have entered a market mania phase, similar to 2021. The rental car company Avis Budget ($CAR) reached $765 per share today. Six weeks ago, it was a small-cap stock that nobody talks about, trading around $85 per share. Our community doesn’t trade penny stalks or low floats. But this kind of move doesn’t happen in a “normal” market.

Experienced traders know this. If you’ve been around long enough, you’ve seen this movie before. In 2021, we watched GameStop rewrite the rules for what a stock could do intraday. It wasn’t about fundamentals. It was a move driven by crowd psychology, positioning, and momentum.

History doesn’t repeat perfectly, but it rhymes. And for day traders, this is the best kind of environment to participate in. Because volatility creates opportunity. But you need to have a real edge and real discipline.

Today, my main trades are PLTR and UNH breakouts, using Market Atlas to assist my edge. My edge of breakout trading is getting stronger because I’m reading liquidity better.

Market Atlas is our liquidity visualization tool. It helps you see where the market is likely to move next, because price tends to move toward liquidity based on market auction theory. When you can see the order flow clearly, you stop trading blind.

We saw a significant liquidity level at $150 (huge ask-side orders stacking there) when we entered PLTR, and price got pulled toward this level.
Today was a $44,000 trading day for me. I recorded the recap during the live trading session so you can see exactly how it played out in real time. You can see price move toward the liquidity zones and how I managed the trades as the session unfolded.

Watch the recap and study my live trades.

I want to introduce our senior trader at Peak Capital Trading and the trading bootcamp’s Director of Specialized Strategy Aiman Almansoori.
Aiman is a medical doctor turned full-time equities trader. He’s one of our earliest Bear Bull Traders members who has been trading with me for almost nine years now.

More importantly, he has an excellent track record mentoring developing traders inside Peak Capital. On X and Peak Capital Trading’s website, you can see many excellent reviews left by traders who worked with him. He’s not just a good trader but also a great teacher. He’s very methodical, structured, and serious about risk management and execution.

And that’s exactly what the bootcamp wants to achieve.

This is a structured environment where you build your TradeBook, train the right habits, and develop consistency with dedicated mentors who trade with you closely for 13 weeks.

Most traders don’t fail because they don’t work hard. They fail because they don’t have structure and guidance from real experienced mentors.

They trade alone. They don’t get feedback. They don’t have accountability. And years pass. No consistency.

Bootcamp compresses time. It gives you a 13-week path with daily structure, private mentorship, and a small group of traders who are all serious and all accountable to each other.

Right now, we have a special deal that includes:

  • Peak Capital Trading Bootcamp 2026
  • 1-Year BBT Elite Access
  • 1x $50K Das Trader Funded Account

Remember, the market always rewards those who are prepared, not those who are lucky. Feel free to reply to this email if you have any questions.

See you in our live trading session,

Andrew
