Don’t Mistake a Pause for the End of the Trend

A market that had been climbing steadily suddenly starts moving sideways. Maybe it gives back a little ground. The candles become choppier, and before long it’s tempting to think, “Well, I guess that’s the end of that trend.” Sometimes that’s true. But many times, a healthy trend is simply taking a breather before it continues.

Making Forecasts at Ticker Request Live

One of the projects I’ve been working on recently is reviewing forecasts from earlier Ticker Request Live broadcasts. It started because I’m reteaching and updating some of my forecasting material, but as I went back through those sessions, something else caught my attention. I realized just how many live forecasts had been made over the

What’s Really Driving Your Trading?

I’m 3 months into my braces journey, 17 months go to. While they are doing their job of fixing my teeth alignment to prevent jaw injuries like the one I had back in January, that just addresses the bones. There’s a whole other side – the muscles – which requires physical therapy to address. I

Dinner Decisions and Your Trading

One of the unexpected banes of adulthood is figuring out what’s for dinner. Every. Single. day. I’ve attempted to plan things out before, but I think I finally cracked the code in a way that’s actually going to work. As I was putting it together, I realized the same idea applies really well to trading.

Where Does Your Trading Time Really Go?

I don’t know about you, but when summer rolls around, there’s this air of relaxation that bubbles up, even when there’s still plenty to do. Work, jobs, businesses, household matters…they’re all still there. But it’s kind of a nice relief from the stress of the “academic” year. When it comes to our life and our

Just Because You Drew a Trendline Doesn’t Mean It Still Matters

One of the first things traders learn in technical analysis is how to draw a trendline. That’s a valuable skill, but there’s another lesson that doesn’t get nearly as much attention: knowing when a trendline has stopped being useful. I see charts all the time that are filled with trendlines drawn weeks or even months

Earnings Season Is Coming: Here’s How I Prepare

Now that it’s a new Quarter 3 in 2026, earnings season is about to get underway with the banks. And there’s a lot in the mix – a new Fed chair who seems committed to limited forward guidance. Interesting mixes of jobs and inflation data. And a little company called SpaceX that had the biggest

Zones of Caring in Your Trading

“So what do you think of the new placemats?” My husband replied, “Hima, I’m happy if they make you happy, but they’re really not in my zones of caring.” He’s had this philosophy of “zones of caring” for quite a while, and the more I thought about it, the more I realized it ties into

Renovating Your Trading Plan: When to Pause and Why It Pays Off

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, summer really ramps up around July 4th weekend. 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: the weather’s

Start with the Lemonade Stand in Your Trading

With America’s 250th birthday coming up, I’ve been thinking about something that ties both into trading and what I love about this country. And it starts with kids looking to make summertime cash. The Simple Start Do these kids go knocking on the door of Tropicana or Minute Maid looking for a job in the

Overbought Doesn’t Always Mean Time to Sell

One of the most common mistakes I see traders make is assuming an overbought reading automatically means it’s time to sell. It seems logical at first. If a momentum indicator says a market is overbought, surely the price action has gone too far up and needs to come back down. But markets don’t always work

How to Find High-Probability Trade Setups

We all want cleaner trades, more confidence, and less noise. But the truth is, those setups don’t just appear out of nowhere. They’re identified— by building a workflow into your analysis and learning how to layer your trading tools. Let me walk you through how I approach it, and how you can start finding high-probability
