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, The market certainly sold off at the Open today but it has reversed significantly by the time I am writing this newsletter at 11am ET. Market volatility has been so high lately that it is challenging to write some commentary with any sort of confidence during market hours! Brian and I each had […]
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. TSLA has reported some very interesting earnings, and although they had record profits, the overall fear of supply chain issues has taken them down […]
Dear Traders, Today, the market gapped down again and traded lower. Yesterday, it went down as low as 5% for QQQ, while reversing and closing almost green for all indexes. What a volatile time we are trading in! Brian and I traded a nice reversal around 10:15am ET on QQQ and IWM. You can watch […]
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 […]
When you enter a position, it is influenced by a number of random variables, all of which will have an effect on the outcome of your trade. Unlike the majority of professions, trading does not allow you to control or even influence the outcome of a trade. In this webinar, Mike will introduce the concept […]
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 […]
Rule 2: Day trading is not easy. It is a serious business, and you should treat it as such. Google, Microsoft, Ford, and just about any other successful organization has a business plan as a roadmap toward success. In this webinar, Mike will cover creating, implementing, and adjusting the components of a trading business plan […]
Dear Traders, I hope everyone began the day – and the week – nice in this volatile market! Brian and I were able to make some great reversals on Indexes. Brian took TNA for the reversal of IWM and I took SPXL and TQQQ for the reversal of SPY and QQQ. For the latter, an […]
Dear Traders, The global bond market sell off paused yesterday as it seems not all central banks are keen to increase interest rates. The Bank of Japan Governor stated that “Raising rates is unthinkable.” Similarly, the European Central Bank President said they have “…every reason not to react as quickly…” The market quite liked this […]
Do you know exactly what you need to do to make profitable trades, but find yourself repeatedly getting in your own way? Do you become overactive in the market, revenge trade, ignore limits, or hesitate to take on risk because you are afraid to make a mistake? These are all ways that your mind and […]
Dear Traders, Interest rates are rising, and that impacts the profit margins of banks. The lower liquidity means money is not as cheap as it used to be, and investors try to avoid high value companies (which often are focused on technology and represented in QQQ). As rates go up, banks’ profit margins go down, […]
In this workshop Aiman discusses his rules for trading various ABCD pattern setups which occur during anytime of the day, whether it’s the first five minutes or somewhere later in the afternoon when the market is looking choppy or out of volume. Furthermore, this workshop will go through examples of trades taken by Aiman and […]
Dear Traders, I hope everyone had a great long weekend! We are launching into the earnings season with some big volatility this week. The market sold off heavily as interest rates and the yield on 10-year Treasury bonds (the benchmark for the risk-free rate) rose to around 1.82%. The bears are having fun while the […]
Dear Traders, I was recently asked by a website to comment on the issue of when it is best to trade stocks and when it is best to trade index funds. In short, my response was that for day traders, it is better to focus on index funds and leveraged ETFs when the overall market […]
In this webinar, Peter will discuss the realities of day trading as well as walk you through a 1-year plan that incorporates all of the various steps you can take to successfully set yourself up for a career in day trading.
Today started very slow, but in the end it turned out to be a very volatile day. As I write this, the market has bounced back from its early morning losses and Brian and I (and hopefully you) were able to make some nice trades. Thanks to Jarad, I traded LCID and NVDA while Brian […]
Dear Traders, What a crazy day to start the week! Ardi, Brian, and I discussed in our weekend AfterHours with Traders that increasing interest rates this year will both strengthen the USD and put selling pressure on high-risk assets such as crypto and overvalued technology stocks (that are mostly represented in the QQQ index). Ardi […]
Dear Traders, If you were not live in the chatroom this morning, here is a link to the recap that Brian and I posted earlier today. You’ll see how we traded a bounce on QQQ and BABA. In addition, Aiman and Simon have uploaded their weekly REPLAY video that can be seen here. If you […]
