Navigating the Fed as a Trader: News and Indicators

In my last post, I shared how the Fed is very data oriented. The challenge is that the data they rely on is always backward-looking — usually a month old by the time it’s in their hands. That makes it almost impossible to know exactly how the economy is moving day to day. Or is

Navigating the Fed as a Trader: Fed Actions vs. Fed Speak

In the first post of this series, What Every Trader Needs to Know About the Fed, I walked through the basics of the Fed — what it is, how interest rates work, and why the dollar matters. Now let’s look at what the Fed actually does. The Fed has two main ways of influencing markets:

Navigating the Fed as a Trader: What Every Trader Needs to Know About the Fed

The next Fed meeting is right around the corner — Wednesday, September 17th. And it’s shaping up to be a bigger one than usual. It’s pretty well baked in that the Fed will cut rates after keeping them elevated so long to battle inflation. But the latest jobs data for August, showing a slightly cooling

Forecasting in Volatile Markets

I get a lot of questions about whether my forecasting techniques can work in volatile markets — especially when news seems to throw everything off balance. The short answer: yes, forecasting applies in every kind of market environment. Whether the market is slow and quiet (rare these days) or racing up and down with choppy

Magnets on Your Chart: Seeing Market Turning Points Before They Happen

When you look at a price chart of a security trading at new all-time highs — it can feel like you’re staring into outer space. Like there’s this endless vacuum where price can float in any direction at any pace. But that’s not actually the case. If you bring in a little bit of simple

Three Ways to Time the Market

I still remember when I first started watching my dad trade. I was completely mesmerized by those flashing green and red candles on the screen. Price action was something else. If only he could see the speed of today’s markets. Back in the 90s, it was steadier. You could actually follow along as each move

Forecasting, Football, and the Flow of Markets

Burnt orange as far as the eye can see. That’s what it looks like right now here in Austin, Texas. We’re about to kick off the college football season with a massive game between the University of Texas Longhorns and the Ohio State Buckeyes. My husband has been talking about this game for weeks. I’ve

The Final Two Archetypes That Changed My Trading

In my last post, I shared the first two of Tony Robbins’ “Four Archetypes” — the Warrior and the Magician — and how I began using them before every trading session. Here are the final two, where the exercise surprised me most — and where it shifted my trading in ways I didn’t expect. Archetype

The First Two Archetypes That Shape My Trading Mindset

In my latest posts, I shared how we can control more than we think — and why investing in mindset pays off before you even place a trade. Now I want to take you inside the exercise Tony Robbins shared at his virtual event this past spring. At first, it felt like a little “bonus

Investing in Your Mindset Pays Off

In my latest post, I shared how, as a teenager, I used a Tony Robbins exercise to “reprogram” myself from loving chocolate to being disgusted by it — and how decades later, I’ve returned to his teachings in a whole new way. Here’s why investing in your mindset matters so much. It’s not about investing

You Can Control More Than You Think

These days, I lift weights and watch what I eat. I’m probably in one of the better shapes of my life. But when I was a teenager, I wasn’t so tuned in to my lifestyle choices. Like a good oldest child of immigrant parents, I was focused on academics. I was heavier back then, and

Details Lead to Dollars in Trading

“Good morning Hima. Your timer is set for 5 minutes.” That’s the first voice I hear most mornings, from Alexa on my Amazon device. That’s her responding after I’ve asked to set a timer while I prepare breakfast — specifically, my one cup of tea. Growing up in an Indian household, tea is no small
