Where’s Your Time Really Going?

I’ve always been curious about where my time goes. Back in 2017, I started using a physical daily journal — and it was eye-opening. Tracking my time like that helped me in so many areas of life, from trading to personal development. I still use that paper journal, but over the years, I’ve added digital

What If You Miss the Move? Handling FOMO in Real Time

Like most Tuesdays, I kicked off our Futures Trading Lab session with our S&P Edge Pro research service members. The 60-minute chart hadn’t reacted much to the latest CPI inflation data. But the hour ending at 9:00 a.m. Eastern posted what I call an “Outside Bar” (per my Gann Candlesticks Trading System)— a signal that

Not Every Trade Has to Make the Highlight Reel

Yesterday I caught some of the Wimbledon Men’s Final.I grew up playing tennis — and while I’m not a superfan these days, I do appreciate the kind of talent it takes to play at the Grand Slam level. When I tuned in, Alcaraz had just won a point against Sinner in the third set. And

Rooted or Ruined: How Strong Is Your Trading Foundation?

The wild weather here in Texas hasn’t let up. We’ve still been getting hit with rain and crazy high winds. Finally, we had a clear, sunny day. But it came with a surprise. My husband and I walked outside and saw that a tree just beyond our backyard had fallen over. Thankfully, it collapsed away

When the Clouds Don’t Lift: A Staycation, a Storm, and a Shift in Perspective

The rain didn’t just cancel our plans—it reframed everything. July 4th, 2025 was supposed to kick off The Great Reddy Staycation.My husband took extra time off and I cleared my schedule.We were finally going to explore the vibrant city we’ve called home for the past four years – Ausin, TX. It wasn’t a money thing.

Squeeze It ‘Til It’s Gone — In Trading Too

The other day, I came across one of those oddly satisfying TikTok videos — and it completely shifted how I think about managing my trades. I’m not someone who’s endlessly scrolling, but I do enjoy a good life hack now and then. And this one? It involved a massage gun and a bunch of nearly-empty

Renovating Your Trading Plan: Why Pausing Now Pays Later

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, summer really settles in between Memorial Day and July 4th. And if you’ve been out and about, you may have noticed something around your neighborhood… The season of renovation projects. Even though fall might be more ideal, the peak months for home renovation are May through July. It makes sense:

Why Quiet Markets Are a Gift to the Smart Trader

So when it comes to trading, we think of ourselves as active traders. We’re not just buying and holding shares for 20 years.We’re getting in there — taking advantage of price fluctuations in stocks, options, futures — trying to buy low and sell high. Whether you’re scalping, day trading, swing trading, or position trading, it’s

I Almost Got Arrested: Here’s How It Affects Your Trading

One thing I’ve learned as a New Yorker living in the South:The signal indicator is not everybody’s favorite vehicle feature. I don’t know what it is, but I’ve mostly gotten used to how rarely other drivers on the road use it. Still, what happened the other day reminded me why this tiny car feature —

Waiting Is Part of the Trading

Why this overlooked skill might be the difference between blowing or growing your account As we’ve been sharing, doors to our brand-new First 40 Trading Club open next week. A little secret? I’ve actually been quietly building and beta testing this membership with 50+ of our own Tribe members since early June. We’ve had Q&A

How to Track Your Trades (So You Actually Learn From Them)

In our last post, we walked through the three phases of testing a trading plan — from kick-the-tires to measured mode to review. Now comes the part that truly separates dabblers from developing traders: How you track your trades determines how quickly you establish your winning approach.. This step is often skipped. Or done halfway.

How to Test and Prove Your Trading Plan (Without Blowing Up Your Account)

Most traders want confidence in their trading — but few understand how to earn it. They’ll run a handful of trades, tweak their rules after every loss, and hope things “just start working.” But without a real testing process, it’s all guesswork. If you want to trust your trading plan, you have to test it
