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 of probabilities as a way to assist you in changing your mindset from focusing on the outcome of a trade...

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 conditions. In this webinar, Jarad will focus in on these fundamentals of risk management....

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 5%, QQQ is down 10%, small caps are down 15%, but ARKK is down more than 50% as the heady...

Rule 2: Day trading is not easy. It is a serious business, and you should treat it as such.

We have also recorded another episode of AfterHours with...

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 news and bounced back, with all sectors gaining over 1% as of the time of writing this newsletter. In the chatroom, many...

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 emotions can sabotage your trading process, even if you are the most technically skilled trader. This webinar will explore how...

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, because they are borrowing money themselves and lending it to their borrowers, making money from the interest rate spread. Now, in...

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 he will explain the reasons behind him taking those exact entries on a certain types of stocks....

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 bulls are experiencing weakness. I am already anticipating how this week will end. Some market internals are signaling a reversal, but...
