Helping you grow your trading income
๐Ÿ“ˆ26 yr Trader & Wall Street Analyst
๐Ÿ‘17,000 students boosted thru my Trifecta system
๐Ÿ’ฒHow I trade every day ๐Ÿ‘‡

Most traders journal the wrong thing. Here's what Most traders journal the wrong thing. Here's what to write instead ๐Ÿ‘‡

A journal full of "in my plan: yes" teaches you nothing new. The answers that make you better are the ones that explain the trade.

Three moments, one short line each:

1. Entry: what did you see that made you put the order on? Write it right after the order goes in, or once it fills.
2. Managing: when you move a stop or add or take size, jot why in a few words while it's fresh.
3. Exit: why here and not somewhere else? Did price hit your level, did time run out, did the setup stop working?

Then, after the trade is closed, read the three lines back as one story. That's where you see the mechanics: what actually moved the trade and what you reacted to.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't write a novel mid-trade. Notes, not paragraphs
โœ— Don't fill it in from memory at the end of the day
โœ— Don't stop at "did it follow my rules?" A rule-following loss and a rule-following win can have very different reasons behind them

"I trade fast charts, I don't have time."
I trade 3 minute and 15 second charts and I still journal. A few words per action is enough, and the review happens after the trade, not during it.

Want a plan worth journaling against? That's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

The trade usually isn't the problem. Your free han The trade usually isn't the problem. Your free hand is ๐Ÿ‘‡

A lot of early exits don't come from new information. They come from waiting. Price goes sideways, a candle takes forever to close, and your hand starts looking for something to do.

So give it a job before the trade starts:

1. Set your stop and your target when you enter, then set an alert so the platform watches price for you.
2. Put paper and a pen (or a coloring book and colored pencils) next to your keyboard, not behind it.
3. While you wait for the alert or the candle to close, your hand stays on the paper and off the mouse.
4. When the alert fires, check it against your plan. Then decide.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't stare at every tick "just in case"
โœ— Don't nudge your stop further away because the trade is close to it
โœ— Don't take profit early just to make the waiting stop

"Isn't doodling a distraction?"
Not from your plan. Your eyes still check the alerts and the candles. The only thing it takes away is the click you were about to make without a reason.

Let the trade ride the way your plan says, and you get a pretty picture out of it too.

Want a plan you trust enough to leave alone? That's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

Most traders have a strategy. Very few have a cons Most traders have a strategy. Very few have a constitution ๐Ÿ‘‡

A strategy tells you when to get in. A constitution tells you who you are as a trader when the trade goes against you.

Write yours on one page before your next trade:

1. Your guiding principles. Two or three lines you trade by no matter what the market is doing.
2. What you absolutely will not do. The mistakes that cost you the most, written as hard nos.
3. What you will strive to do. The habits you want to see in your journal every week.
4. Your amendments. If the market goes sideways or gets choppy, what changes? Write it down now, while you're calm, not in the middle of a trade.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't keep your rules only in your head
โœ— Don't rewrite a rule in the middle of a trade
โœ— Don't call breaking your plan "being flexible"

"Won't a rulebook make me rigid?"
No. Flexibility is part of the plan. If market conditions change, you already decided how you'll adjust. Changing it on a whim is not flexibility. That's trading without a plan.

Nobody wants to run a government without a plan. Don't run your trading account without one either.

Want help writing yours? That's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

Most traders plan their entries. Almost nobody pla Most traders plan their entries. Almost nobody plans their days off ๐Ÿ‘‡

Here's a simple way to set up your month:

1. Open an economic calendar and filter it to high impact only.
2. Find the FOMC dates for the year. There are 8, and the announcement lands at 2 p.m. on a Wednesday.
3. Mark the first Friday of every month for the unemployment data.
4. Block those times in your own calendar like appointments.
5. Decide in advance what you'll do in that block: watch, study, journal or take the day off.

Then the hard part is already done. When the market starts throwing high kicks, you aren't deciding on the fly. You already decided on a calm day.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't find out about the announcement after you're already in a trade
โœ— Don't size up because "it's moving, so there must be money in it"
โœ— Don't treat every red folder event the same, check which ones move the markets you actually trade

"But that's when the big moves happen."
Sure, and if you're a trading ninja, be my guest. Fast markets reward a tested plan and punish guessing. If your plan hasn't been tested in that kind of volatility yet, watching it is part of your homework, not a missed trade.

And if you like long weekends, the first Friday of the month is a pretty good one to take.

Want a trading plan that tells you which days to trade and which days to sit out? That's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

You're already more consistent than you think ๐Ÿ‘‡ P You're already more consistent than you think ๐Ÿ‘‡

Pick one thing you never skip.
Brushing your teeth. Checking the mail after lunch. Coffee before email.

Now ask three questions about it:
1. What happens right before it? (the trigger)
2. Where does it happen? (the place)
3. How long does it take? (usually less than you'd guess)

That's the recipe. You didn't build that habit with willpower. You built it by tying it to something that already happens every day.

Now copy it into your trading:
Same trigger, same place, same short block of time.
After lunch, chart review at the same desk.
Before you open your trading platform, the same 3-item checklist.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't try to fix your whole trading routine in one week
โœ— Don't copy someone else's schedule that doesn't fit your life
โœ— Don't start with the hard habits, start with the good ones you already have

"But I'm just not a consistent person."
You are. You do dozens of things on autopilot every day. Find them, reverse engineer them, and bring them into your trading one by one.

Want help building that into a trading plan you can actually test? That's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

Same two letters, completely different questions ๐Ÿ‘‡ Same two letters, completely different questions ๐Ÿ‘‡

RS (relative strength) asks: is this stock beating its group?
Plot it under the chart against the index it lives in. A tech stock against the NASDAQ, for example.
If the RS line is climbing, the stock is outperforming, even on a day when both are red.

RSI (relative strength index) asks: is this stock strong compared to its own recent past?
No index, no other stocks. Just its own history, scored from 0 to 100.

How to use them together:
RS helps you pick what to trade.
RSI helps you time when to trade it.

Why 14?
The standard RSI setting is 14 days, half of a 28-day lunar cycle.
I keep it at 14, whether you use the RSI the standard way or my way with the RSI power zones.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't treat RS and RSI as the same indicator
โœ— Don't compare a tech stock's RS to an index it doesn't belong to
โœ— Don't keep changing the RSI length every time a trade goes against you

"Isn't a shorter setting faster?"
Faster, yes. Also noisier. Keep the setting steady so the signals you test mean the same thing every time.

Want to build RS and RSI into a plan you can actually test? That's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

How to set up your 3 trading blocks this Sunday ๐Ÿ‘‡ How to set up your 3 trading blocks this Sunday ๐Ÿ‘‡

Block 1: your live trading workflow.
Put prep, trading and review at the same times on the same days.
If review only happens "when you get to it," it doesn't happen.

Block 2: your education.
You don't need another course. Open the one you already paid for.
Go through the instruction manual. Go through the quick start guide. Read the e-book.
One block on the calendar, one tool at a time.

Block 3: your admin.
Pick a day to look at your account: once a week or twice a month, whatever fits your trading style.
Growing? Decide what moves. Not growing? Decide what changes.

When to plan it:
Ideally on Sunday for the whole week.
At the very least, the night before for the next day.
You'll get more done without feeling like you're cramming a million things in.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't wait until the market opens to decide when you'll trade
โœ— Don't buy something new before you've used what you already have
โœ— Don't let money decisions happen in the middle of a trade

"But my schedule changes every week."
That's exactly why you plan it on Sunday. The blocks can move. They just can't disappear.

If you want help turning this into a plan you can actually test, that's what my First 40 Trading Club is for, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.

The order I read every chart in ๐Ÿ‘‡ Price first. Al The order I read every chart in ๐Ÿ‘‡

Price first. Always.
Before any indicator, ask one question: what is price actually doing right now?
Higher highs and higher lows, lower highs and lower lows, or going sideways?

Then time.
Look along the bottom of the chart, not just up and down.
How long did the last swing take? Is a turn coming due, or is it still early?

Then momentum.
The RSI is built from past price, so it should agree with what price is doing.
When price pushes to a new high and the RSI doesn't, pay attention. That's where it can lead price at a turn.

When all three line up, you have a trade worth looking at.
When momentum argues with price, price wins.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't take a signal from an indicator that price isn't confirming
โœ— Don't ignore how long a move has already run
โœ— Don't pile on more indicators to fix a chart you can't read

"But I invest on fundamentals."
Fundamentals can tell you what to look at. Price tells you when the market agrees. Earnings get adjusted. The candle that already printed doesn't.

The number most traders never write down ๐Ÿ‘‡ You ca The number most traders never write down ๐Ÿ‘‡

You can't fix what you don't track.
Start a simple log. One line per trade is enough.

What to record every time:
โ€ข Date, market, long or short
โ€ข Entry, stop and exit
โ€ข Win or loss, and the size of it
โ€ข One sentence on why you took it

After 20 trades, add it up:
Win rate = wins รท total trades
Average win = total won รท number of wins
Average loss = total lost รท number of losses

Then put them together.
If you win 4 out of 10, but your average win is 3x your average loss, the account still grows.
If you win 7 out of 10, but one loss wipes out four wins, it doesn't.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't judge a plan on your last 3 trades
โœ— Don't chase a higher win rate by cutting winners early
โœ— Don't skip logging the losing days. Those are the ones that teach you the most.

Here's why so many traders decide it's useless ๐Ÿ‘‡ Here's why so many traders decide it's useless ๐Ÿ‘‡

The classic way to read the RSI:
Above 70 = overbought. Below 30 = oversold.

That works best in a sideways range. Price bounces between the same highs and lows, and the RSI bounces right along with it.

In a strong trend, that rule falls apart:
In an uptrend, the RSI can sit "overbought" for weeks while price keeps climbing.
In a downtrend, it can sit "oversold" while price keeps falling.

That's usually when people call it useless. The tool didn't break. The market changed.

What to do instead:
1. Decide first: is this a bull market, a bear market or a range?
2. Then read the RSI for that market, not with one fixed rule.
3. Test it on your own charts before you trust it with money.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't short every "overbought" reading in an uptrend.
โœ— Don't buy every "oversold" reading in a downtrend.
โœ— Don't throw out a tool before you know what it was designed for.

The math behind the ducks is the part most traders The math behind the ducks is the part most traders skip ๐Ÿ‘‡

Before you click buy, mark two prices on your chart:

1. Where you're wrong (your stop). That distance is 1 duck of risk.
2. Where you take profit. That distance should be at least 2 ducks.

If the target isn't at least twice as far away as the stop, skip the trade. There's always another one.

Why 1:2 works:
At 1:1 you have to win more than half your trades just to break even.
At 1:2 your break-even win rate drops to about 33%, before fees.
So a string of losses doesn't bury you, and a couple of wins can pull you back ahead.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't move your stop further away so the ratio looks better.
โœ— Don't cut a winner at 1 duck because you got nervous.
โœ— Don't pick your ratio after you're already in the trade.

"Can I go for 1:3 or 1:4?"
Absolutely. Points or dollars, whatever your chart uses. Just start with 1:2 as your bare minimum and test from there.

The one question that does the sorting for you ๐Ÿ‘‡ The one question that does the sorting for you ๐Ÿ‘‡

Once a month, sit down with your credit card bill. Not the total. Every single line.

How I'd run it:

1. Go through the entire statement, every transaction.
2. Pull out anything trading related. It's easy to miss when it sits between personal and business charges.
3. For each club, research letter, tool or membership, ask one question: would I buy this again?
4. Yes? Keep it.
5. No, or you had to think about it? Take action from there.

I try to do this every week. Honestly, that gets a little hairy. Once a month is the minimum.

What NOT to do:
โœ— Don't glance at the total and move on.
โœ— Don't keep something just because it feels nice to be part of it.
โœ— Don't wait for a rough month to start looking.

"But what if I need it later?"
Then ask the question again later. If you're not using it now, it's not doing you any good now.

Whatever you free up can go back into your trading account, toward your next trade.

I can show you how to work this into a trading plan in my First 40 Trading Club, where I show you how to build, test and adapt a trading plan in 40 trades or less.
