Dear Traders, Happy inflation report day! At 8:30am ET, the CPI numbers came out and they were 9.2% more than anticipated, like 0.2%. Reaction was quick in the premarket, with a sharp drop of over 2%, but as I write these words, the recovery seems to be equally quick at the Open, with all the […]

In the second workshop of this two-part series, CrĂ©de will talk to our volunteer traders to assess the impact that the mental edge strategy has had on their trading performance. We will discuss traders’ experiences with implementing the technique and forensically evaluate what aspects of their trading have improved and what still needs some work. […]

One of the most common strategies that tempts traders is Breakouts. However, trading Breakouts is not as easy as it might sound. For example, one cannot take a 1-minute ORBU (Opening Range Breakout Up) only because a candle is making a new 1-minute high. The same is true for other time frames. In this webinar, […]

Dear Traders, The chaos around tech earnings surprised everyone. Brian was in the office yesterday and he said that in the last 30 years he has been trading, he has not seen such earnings volatility. This morning, SNAP and F were very nice to Brian and I, and we made some great trades on them. […]

Dear Traders, What a January! I never thought I would miss 2021, but I certainly did – until last week that is. Friday, before the Close, we experienced a big rally with all indexes closing green for the week (except for the growth sector represented by IWM). Today, the market tested the low of the […]

Dear Traders, We had some amazing trades today in the chatroom including a short on TSLA and a reversal on AMD. Please watch the recap that Brian and I posted here.

In part 2 of this multi-part webinar, Kyle will be reviewing additional advanced Hotkeys (for DAS) which have been proven to be very beneficial in assisting a trader with their risk management. But there’s more to this webinar than just that. In all honesty, the advanced Hotkeys being discussed this evening can only really be […]

Without risk management, you are susceptible not only to losses in the markets but also to inconsistent returns over time. If you understand the core principles of risk, as well as how to manage a trade once the risk is defined, you will be able to make consistent money in the markets, no matter the […]

Markets change character over time, but people do not. And we are certainly creatures of habit. The S&P and QQQ have more than doubled from the March 2020 bottom and for only one month have closed below the previous month’s low. Naturally, we all get accustomed to trading long. As of mid-January, SPY is down […]
