A large percentage decline doesn't automatically mean a bullish trend has failed.

Use four questions:

  • What happened before the pullback?
  • Is higher-timeframe structure still bullish?
  • Where could meaningful support appear?
  • What would tell us the thesis is weakening?

When you first open a chart, where should you actually begin?

  • Why I zoom out before making any decisions
  • How Monthly and Weekly charts provide context
  • The basic role of market structure
  • Why support and resistance create the map
  • When I move down to the Daily and 4-hour charts
  • Why indicators come after the chart itself makes sense

The goal is to make chart analysis feel more structured and less overwhelming.

If you're new to trading, it can feel like you need to learn everything at once.

Day trading. Options. Indicators. Patterns. Breakouts. Risk management.

But before any of that, it helps to decide what kind of trading actually fits your life.

In the first episode of the Start Here season, we cover:

  • Why I prefer swing and momentum trading for beginners
  • Why trading does not have to mean watching charts all day
  • How higher timeframes can simplify the process
  • Why trading is about probabilities rather than perfect predictions
  • The basic Analyze → Plan → Execute → Manage framework
  • Why doing nothing can sometimes be the correct trading decision
  • What we'll build throughout the rest of the Start Here season

What to Do After You Enter a Trade - Season 5 Recap21 sept. 202600:10:34

Momentum Trading Alliance is now open.

Getting into a trade is only the beginning.

Once you own the position, a new set of decisions starts:

Do you hold? Add? Reduce? Exit?

And how do you know whether the chart has actually changed—or you're simply reacting emotionally to normal volatility?

In the final episode of Season 5, we bring together the major lessons from the season and build a simple process for managing a trade after the entry.


In this episode, we cover:

  •  Why your Trading Avatar should determine how you manage the position 
  •  Why the controlling timeframe matters more than short-term noise 
  •  The four decisions after an entry: Hold, Add, Reduce, Exit
  •  Why your first entry doesn't need to be perfect
  •  How position size can affect your ability to remain objective 
  •  Why being red or green isn't a trading signal
  •  How to determine whether the original thesis has actually been invalidated 
  •  Why a winning trade can still involve a bad process—and a losing trade can still involve a good one 
  •  A simple step-by-step process for deciding what to do as the chart develops 


One of the biggest mistakes traders can make is changing the plan based on how the position makes them feel.

A short-term pullback doesn't automatically mean a higher-timeframe thesis has failed.

And a profitable position doesn't automatically mean it's time to sell.

The goal is to return to the plan, evaluate the evidence, and make a decision that matches the type of trade you intended to take.


A Simple Post-Entry Process

After entering a trade:

  1.  Identify your Trading Avatar
  2.  Return to the controlling timeframe
  3.  Ask whether your original thesis still exists 
  4.  Determine where price is relative to support and resistance
  5.  Decide whether to Hold, Add, Reduce, or Exit
  6.  Ask whether you're responding to new information or emotion


You can't remove uncertainty from trading.

The goal is to have a process for responding to it.

Momentum Trading Alliance Applications Are Open

If you've listened through Season 5 and understand many of these ideas but still feel like you need help applying them to your own charts and building a complete process, that's exactly what we work on inside Momentum Trading Alliance.

Applications for the next MTA cohort are currently open and close later this week.

If you're curious about MTA but aren't sure whether you're ready or whether it's the right fit, that's what the strategy call is for.

We can talk about where you are now, what you've been struggling with, and what you're trying to accomplish with your trading.

👉 Book a Strategy Call: https://calendly.com/tylerstokes-com/strategy-call

Key Takeaway

Entering the trade gives you a position. How you manage it determines whether you're actually following a strategy.

Know what type of trader owns the position, know which timeframe controls it, control your size, define what would invalidate the thesis, and have a reason behind every decision to Hold, Add, Reduce, or Exit.

A good entry matters, but getting into the trade is only the beginning.

Once you own the position, the chart keeps developing, and you still need a process for deciding what comes next.

In this episode, we look at the decisions that happen after the entry and how having a structured plan can make trade management clearer.


We cover:

  •  Why buying near support instead of chasing resistance can improve the starting point of a trade 
  •  How your Trading Avatar helps define the type of trade you're taking 
  •  The four decisions that come after an entry: Hold, Add, Reduce, Exit
  •  Why position size, timeframe, and invalidation should be planned before emotions take over 
  •  Common execution traps that can pull you away from your original plan 
  •  Why hindsight makes trading education look easier than real-time decision-making 
  •  How the new Momentum Trading Lab will help us practice decisions while charts are still developing 


I also explain more about Momentum Trading Alliance (MTA), why I created the mentorship, and who it may be a good fit for.

MTA is designed for traders who want a more structured swing and momentum trading process—not an alert service telling you what stock to buy.

The goal is to help you build a process you can eventually apply independently.

Momentum Trading Alliance Applications Are Open

Applications are currently open for the next MTA cohort.

If you'd like to see whether the mentorship could be a good fit for where you are with your trading, you can book a strategy call using the link below.

👉 Book a Strategy Call: https://calendly.com/tylerstokes-com/strategy-call


We'll talk about where you are right now, what you're struggling with, what you'd like to improve, and whether MTA makes sense for you.


Key Takeaway

The entry gets you into the trade. The process tells you what to do next.

A complete trading plan goes beyond finding a good entry. It also helps you decide when to hold, add, reduce, or exit as the chart develops.

Making money on a trade doesn’t automatically mean you made a good decision. And losing money doesn’t automatically mean you made a bad one.

Trading is based on probabilities, which means a strong setup can fail and a poor decision can still get rewarded.

In this episode, we look at why it’s important to separate process from outcome when reviewing your trades.

  •  A complete beginner-friendly trading course 
  •  Weekly live Q&A calls 
  •  Lessons on market structure, support and resistance, confluence, Trading Avatars, execution, and more 

👉 https://skool.com/trading



We cover:

  •  The four combinations of good/bad process and good/bad outcomes
  •  Why profitable trades can sometimes reinforce dangerous habits 
  •  How a losing trade can still be an example of excellent execution 
  •  Why chasing resistance, oversizing, or ignoring invalidation isn't justified just because the trade worked 
  •  How your Trading Avatar helps define what good execution actually looks like 
  •  Why luck and skill can look very similar over a small number of trades 
  •  A simple framework for reviewing your trades without letting hindsight take over 

One of the most useful questions to ask after a trade is:

Would I repeat this process under the same conditions, without knowing what happened next?

The goal isn't to stop caring about results. Results matter.

But one profitable or losing trade shouldn't be the full judgment of the decision.

Over time, the objective is to build a process that deserves to be repeated.


Key Takeaway

A winning trade can still be a bad trade, and a losing trade can still be a good trade.

Review both the outcome and the quality of your execution. Over a large enough sample of trades, improving the decisions you can control is what matters most.

Why High Conviction Can Be Dangerous24 août 202600:11:26

Conviction is an important part of trading.

It helps you take action, stay patient during normal volatility, and stick with a valid thesis when the chart is behaving as expected.

But conviction becomes dangerous when it starts replacing your rules.


📈 Join the FREE Stock Trading for Beginners Community

Inside the community you'll find:

  •  A complete beginner-friendly trading course 
  •  Weekly live Q&A sessions 
  •  Lessons on market structure, support and resistance, confluence, Trading Avatars, and execution 

👉 https://skool.com/trading


In this episode, we explore the difference between healthy conviction and certainty, why high conviction often leads traders to oversize positions, chase poor entries, ignore invalidation, and become emotionally attached to a trade.

You'll learn how to stay confident in your analysis while still respecting risk management and allowing the chart—not your emotions—to guide your decisions. 

In this episode, we cover:

  •  Why conviction is not the same as certainty 
  •  How conviction can distort position sizing 
  •  Why a great company can still be a poor trade at the wrong price 
  •  How conviction influences Trading Avatar behaviors 
  •  The danger of confirmation bias 
  •  Why traders often move their invalidation after entering 
  •  Looking at portfolio risk instead of individual positions 
  •  Building conviction from evidence instead of emotion 
  •  A practical high-conviction checklist to review before increasing a position 

The goal isn't to trade with less confidence.

It's to build disciplined confidence—confidence that's supported by market structure, support and resistance, confluence, and clear risk management. 


Key Takeaway

High conviction should support your process—not replace it.

A strong thesis can justify taking a trade.

It should never justify:

  •  Ignoring support and resistance 
  •  Oversizing a position 
  •  Moving your invalidation 
  •  Averaging down emotionally 
  •  Holding simply because you believe the story 

Remember:

Your Trading Avatar gives you the plan.

Your execution determines whether you actually follow it.

Most traders think the hard decisions happen after they enter a trade.

But in reality, the quality of those decisions is usually determined before they ever press the buy button.

In this episode, we explore why clear trading rules are one of the most overlooked parts of successful trading—and how defining your plan before entering can help you avoid emotional decision-making later.

You'll learn how to build rules that match your Trading Avatar, define your controlling timeframe, manage positions consistently, and evaluate your execution without letting profits and losses distort your thinking.

In this episode, we cover:

  •  Why most trading rules are too vague 
  •  How your Trading Avatar shapes every trading decision 
  •  Choosing the correct controlling timeframe 
  •  What should be true before you buy 
  •  Planning how you'll hold, add, reduce, or exit 
  •  Why you shouldn't rewrite your rules mid-trade 
  •  Separating process from outcome 
  •  How to build a simple, repeatable trading plan 

The goal isn't to predict every move.

It's to create a process that's clear enough to follow—even when emotions are trying to pull you away from it.

Key Takeaway

The best time to make important trading decisions is before you're emotionally invested in the trade.

Define your:

  •  Trading Avatar 
  •  Controlling timeframe 
  •  Entry requirements 
  •  Position size 
  •  Rules for adding 
  •  Profit-taking plan 
  •  Invalidation level 

Then let your plan guide your execution—not your emotions.

Your execution determines whether you actually follow it.

Many traders spend a lot of time looking for the perfect entry.

But one decision that can quietly make every later decision more difficult is going all in too early.

In this episode, we explore why committing your full intended position on the first entry can increase emotional pressure, reduce flexibility, and make it harder to follow your trading plan.

You'll learn why a controlled starter position can help you stay objective, preserve capital, and give the chart time to develop before committing more.

In this episode, we cover:

  •  Why traders feel the need to go all in 
  •  How position size changes your emotions 
  •  Why oversized positions lead to poor execution 
  •  The hidden cost of losing flexibility 
  •  How going all in can trigger common execution mistakes 
  •  Why your first entry doesn't need to be perfect 
  •  The opportunity cost of tying up too much capital 
  •  A simple framework for choosing a better starter position 

The goal isn't to avoid conviction.

It's to size your position in a way that allows you to follow your plan, even when the market becomes uncertain.

Key Takeaway

Your first entry should create opportunity, not pressure.

A controlled starter position gives you room to:

  •  Stay objective during normal volatility 
  •  Add only if your plan allows 
  •  Preserve capital for future opportunities 
  •  Make decisions based on the chart instead of your emotions 

Remember:

Your Trading Avatar gives you the plan.

Your execution determines whether you actually follow it.

In this episode, I talk about why trading can feel clear when you are watching lessons, but much harder when you open your own charts.

That is normal.

Watching someone label structure, mark support and resistance, or explain BOS and CHOCH is very different from doing it yourself.

The fastest way to improve is to start getting reps:

  •  mark up charts 
  •  make mistakes 
  •  paper trade 
  •  notice your emotions 
  •  ask better questions 
  •  get feedback

One of the hardest questions every trader faces is:

"Has my trading thesis actually changed?"

A stock pulls back after you buy...

Is it just normal volatility?

Or is it a sign that the trade is no longer valid?

In this episode, we build a practical framework for answering that question objectively. You'll learn how to separate chart-based evidence from emotion so you can make better decisions about when to hold, add, reduce, or exit a position.

What You'll Learn:

What a Trading Thesis Actually Is

Learn why every trade should begin with a clearly defined thesis—and why knowing what would invalidate it is just as important as knowing why you entered.


Why Your Trading Avatar Matters

Discover why different Trading Avatars manage the exact same chart differently, and why your controlling timeframe should determine your decisions.


The Strongest Signs of Invalidation

We cover the key pieces of evidence that may signal your thesis has genuinely changed, including:

  •  Meaningful support failures 
  •  Changes in market structure 
  •  Failed breakouts and backtests 
  •  Broader market and sector weakness 


Normal Volatility vs a Broken Trade

Not every pullback means it's time to sell.

Learn how to distinguish normal market movement from genuine invalidation so you don't exit healthy trades too early.


A Practical Thesis Review Checklist

A simple process you can use whenever a trade becomes uncomfortable to help you stay focused on the chart—not your emotions.


Free Trading Avatar Execution Checklist

Key Takeaway

Your profit and loss tell you how the position is performing.

The chart tells you whether the reason for owning it still exists.

Your Trading Avatar gives you the plan.

Your execution determines whether you actually follow it.

Most traders put a huge amount of pressure on their first entry.

They feel like they need to buy the exact bottom, and if the stock pulls back after they buy, they assume they made a mistake.

But what if your first entry is simply the beginning of the trade?

In this episode, we explore why successful trade management doesn't end when you click the buy button. We discuss how to think about your first entry, when it makes sense to hold, add, reduce, or exit, and why managing a position often matters just as much as finding the original setup.

What You'll Learn:

Why Your First Entry Doesn't Need to Be Perfect

Learn why trying to predict the exact bottom often creates unnecessary pressure—and why it's better to think of your first entry as the start of a position management process.


Planned Scaling vs Emotional Averaging Down

Discover the difference between adding because your trading plan tells you to... and adding simply because the position is red.


The Four Decisions Every Trader Faces

After entering a trade, you always have four choices:

  •  Hold 
  •  Add 
  •  Reduce 
  •  Exit 

Learn when each one makes sense based on your Trading Avatar and the current chart.


Why Position Size Matters

See how starting with a controlled position can reduce emotional decision-making and give you more flexibility as the trade develops.


A Simple Framework for Managing Every Trade

A practical five-step process you can use after entering a position to help you make decisions based on your plan—not your emotions.


Free Trading Avatar Execution Checklist

Key Takeaway

Your first entry is not the entire trade.

It's simply the beginning of the position.

The chart will continue to develop—and your job is to respond to it with a plan, not with emotion.

Your Trading Avatar gives you the plan.

Your execution determines whether you actually follow it.

In this episode, we continue our Trading Avatar series by looking at one of the most common execution mistakes traders make:

Selling their winners too early.

Taking profits isn't automatically the wrong decision.

In fact, depending on your strategy and Trading Avatar, it may be exactly the right thing to do.

The problem is when you sell because you're afraid of giving back unrealized gains, not because your chart or trading plan tells you it's time.

In this episode, we explore why profitable trades can be just as emotional as losing ones, how different Trading Avatars should manage winning positions, and how to decide whether to take profits, take partial profits, or simply let the trend continue.

Making money often creates a different kind of pressure.

Learn why unrealized gains can lead traders to abandon their original plan.


Why Selling Too Early Can Hurt Long-Term Results

Discover why a few exceptional winners can drive a large portion of your overall returns—and why constantly taking small profits can quietly limit your performance.


How Your Trading Avatar Should Manage Winners

We compare how:

  •  Active Traders 
  •  Swing Traders 
  •  Momentum Traders 
  •  Long-Term Accumulators 

should think about taking profits and managing winning positions.


Partial Profits vs Letting the Trend Continue

Learn when taking partial profits makes sense—and how to avoid becoming a Raider by reacting emotionally to a green position.

Welcome to the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

Most traders think they have an entry problem.

They spend months learning support and resistance, market structure, indicators, and finding the "perfect" setup.

But what if the biggest mistakes happen after you buy?

In this episode, we explore one of the most overlooked skills in trading: execution.

Using ideas inspired by The Art of Execution, we look at the behaviours that cause traders to abandon their plan—and how the Trading Avatar Framework can help you stay consistent once emotions take over.

What You'll Learn:

Why Execution Matters More Than Most Traders Realize

Finding a good entry is only part of the process.

Many traders lose consistency because they change their plan once real money is on the line.

The Five Execution Behaviours

We break down five common trader behaviours inspired by The Art of Execution:

  • The Rabbit
  • The Assassin
  • The Hunter
  • The Raider
  • The Connoisseur

And more importantly, when each behaviour is helping you—and when it becomes a trap.


How the Trading Avatar Framework Changes Decision Making

Learn how defining your Trading Avatar before entering a position can remove emotional decision-making and create more consistent execution.

The Questions Every Trader Should Ask

Discover practical questions to ask before:

  • Holding a losing trade
  • Adding to a position
  • Taking profits
  • Staying in a winning trade


Free Trading Avatar Execution Checklist

I also mention a free Trading Avatar Execution Checklist during this episode.

Why Technical Analysis Feels So Confusing at First12 mai 202600:09:57

Welcome to the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we break down why technical analysis feels so confusing at first — and how to simplify it.

A lot of beginner traders feel overwhelmed when they first start learning charts.

  • Too many indicators.
  • Too many strategies.
  • Too many opinions.

And the more they try to learn, the more confusing it can feel.

But a big reason for that is because most people approach technical analysis the wrong way.

They look for certainty.

When in reality, trading is about probabilities.

This episode walks through a much simpler way to think about technical analysis so charts start to feel more clear, more structured, and a lot less overwhelming.


What We Cover:

Why Technical Analysis Feels Overwhelming

Most beginners try to learn everything at once:

  • Indicators
  • Patterns
  • Strategies
  • Signals
  • Predictions

But more information does not always create more clarity.

A lot of the confusion comes from trying to find certainty in a market that is built on probabilities.


The Shift From Certainty → Probability

Technical analysis is not about knowing exactly what will happen next.

It’s about identifying higher-probability areas on the chart.

Support: Areas where buyers are more likely to step in.

Resistance: Areas where sellers are more likely to step in.

Once you start thinking in probabilities instead of predictions, charts become much easier to understand.


Why Structure Comes Before Tools

Before adding indicators, you first need to understand the structure of the chart itself.

Ask:

  • Is the chart bullish?
  • Bearish?
  • Ranging?
  • Making higher highs and higher lows?
  • Making lower highs and lower lows?

Without structure, indicators usually create more confusion instead of more clarity.


Why Support & Resistance Simplifies Everything

Support and resistance gives you the “map” of the chart.

Instead of trying to predict every move, you start identifying:

  • Better locations
  • Worse locations
  • Higher-probability areas
  • Calmer entries

This is the core idea behind the framework:

Only buy support. Be cautious at resistance.


How To Actually Use Technical Indicators

Most beginners add too many indicators too quickly.

But indicators should support the chart — not replace basic chart reading.

The better approach:

  • Read structure first
  • Identify support/resistance
  • Then layer tools for confirmation

Examples include:

  • Moving averages
  • Fibonacci retracements
  • Ichimoku Cloud
  • Gann Squares

This is where confluence comes from:

Multiple tools lining up in the same area.


Why Experience Matters So Much

Some parts of chart reading cannot just be memorized.

They need to be experienced.

The more charts you watch:

  • The more obvious support becomes
  • The more obvious resistance becomes
  • The more you recognize bullish vs bearish structure
  • The more confidence you build

This is why repetition and consistency matter so much in technical analysis.


Takeaway

Technical analysis becomes much simpler when you:

  • Stop looking for certainty
  • Think in probabilities
  • Learn structure before indicators
  • Focus on support and resistance
  • Use fewer tools more effectively
  • Spend time watching real charts

That’s when charts stop feeling random…

And start feeling structured and practical instead.

Welcome to the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we break down one of the most commonly used concepts in trading — but also one of the most misunderstood.

A lot of traders can draw support and resistance on a chart…

But far fewer actually understand why price reacts at those levels.

  • Why does price bounce at support?
  • Why does it get rejected at resistance?
  • And why do these same zones keep showing up over and over again?

Once you understand what’s happening behind the scenes, support and resistance stops feeling random — and starts becoming one of the most powerful tools in your trading.

Support and resistance is not just about drawing lines…

It’s about understanding behavior, order flow, and probability.

This episode breaks down what’s actually happening behind those levels — and how to start using them in a more structured way.


What We Cover:


Why Markets Remember Key Prices

Charts aren’t random. When price reacts strongly at a level, traders remember it. Previous highs, lows, and key zones often act as future support or resistance.


Why Support & Resistance Are Zones (Not Lines)

Price rarely reacts at one exact number. These levels are areas where buying or selling pressure tends to show up — not perfect lines.


What’s Actually Happening Behind the Scenes

Support and resistance work because orders cluster in these areas.

At resistance:

  • Traders take profits
  • New sellers enter
  • Short sellers may step in

At support:

  • Buyers step in
  • Traders look for entries
  • Short sellers cover positions

This clustering of orders is what causes price to react.


The Role of Trader Psychology

Support and resistance also work because traders believe they work.

When enough people watch the same levels, their actions reinforce the reaction. This creates a self-fulfilling effect in the market.


Why Institutions Use These Levels Too

These zones aren’t just for retail traders.

Institutions look for liquidity — and support/resistance levels are where large amounts of orders tend to sit. That’s why reactions can be stronger in these areas.


The Core Rule: Only Buy Support

If you buy at resistance, you are often entering where others are selling.

If you buy at support, you are entering where buyers are more likely to step in.

It doesn’t guarantee a winning trade — but it puts probability in your favor.


A Simple Entry Framework

Before entering a trade, ask:

  • Is price near support or resistance?
  • Is the overall structure bullish?
  • Is there confluence (multiple signals lining up)?

If not, it’s usually better to wait.


Takeaway

Support and resistance works because:

  • Markets remember important prices
  • Orders cluster in key areas
  • Trader behavior reinforces reactions
  • Institutions use these zones too

When you understand this, you stop guessing…

And start making more structured, higher-probability decisions.

Welcome to season 4, episode 16 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we do something a little different.

Instead of breaking down charts or strategies, we walk through the story behind Momentum Trading Alliance — and how I went from feeling overwhelmed and confused… to building a simple, low-stress, rules-based framework for trading.

Because what most beginners don’t realize is this:

You don’t need more indicators, more strategies, or more information.

You need a better process.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to actually buy a stock — this episode will likely resonate with you.

Most beginner traders struggle not because they aren’t learning...

But because they don’t have a clear, repeatable framework to apply what they’ve learned.

This episode breaks down the key turning points that led to building a simpler, more structured approach to trading.


What We Cover:


Why More Information Actually Makes Trading Harder

Most beginners think they need more indicators and strategies. In reality, too much information creates confusion and makes it harder to make clear decisions on a chart.


Why Most Trading Styles Don’t Fit Real Life

Many traders are drawn to fast-paced, high-stress trading styles that don’t match their schedule or personality. This often leads to burnout, inconsistency, and emotional decisions.


The Shift From “What to Buy” to “Where to Buy”

One of the biggest breakthroughs is realizing that success in trading comes down to location on the chart — not just the stock itself. Buying at support vs resistance changes everything.


Why Most Losses Come From Bad Entries

Losses are often caused by poor location, emotional decisions, and lack of structure — not because the trader picked a bad stock or needed more tools.


The Core Rule: Buy Support, Not Resistance

The foundation of the Momentum Trading Alliance framework is simple:

  • Focus on support zones
  • Avoid resistance
  • Use confluence
  • Respect structure
  • Be patient


How a Strategy Becomes Actually Useful

A strategy only works if it’s simple enough to follow, flexible enough to fit different lifestyles, and clear enough to apply consistently.


Why Confidence Comes From Clarity

The real test of any framework is whether other traders can learn it, apply it, and feel more confident making decisions on real charts.


The Bigger Mission Behind Momentum Trading Alliance

Trading doesn’t need to be stressful, chaotic, or a full-time job.

With the right process, it can be a calm, structured way to manage part of your portfolio and make better long-term decisions.


Takeaway

Most beginner traders go through the same journey:

  • They start overwhelmed
  • They chase complexity
  • They try strategies that don’t fit their life
  • They struggle with entries and emotions

But the breakthrough comes when you simplify.

A clear framework built around:

  • Support
  • Structure
  • Confluence
  • And patience

…is what turns trading from stressful and confusing into something calm, repeatable, and manageable.

Welcome to season 4, episode 15 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we break down one of the biggest mistakes beginner traders make — buying stocks at the worst possible time.

What’s interesting is… it doesn’t feel like a mistake when you’re doing it.

It feels like momentum is strong. It feels like you’re about to catch a big move. It feels like if you don’t get in now, you’ll miss out.

But more often than not, that’s exactly where the pullback starts.

This episode is especially important right now, because many traders bought into strength in late 2025… while today, in April 2026, many of those same stocks are sitting in support zones and starting to stabilize.

This is where the shift happens.

We don’t want to get bullish at resistance.

We want to get bullish at support.

Most losses don’t come from picking the wrong stock.

They come from entering at the wrong place on the chart.

This episode breaks down why traders chase price, how resistance and support actually work, and how to approach the current market with a calmer, more structured mindset.


What We Cover:


Why Traders Keep Buying the Top

When stocks move quickly, emotion takes over. Urgency, excitement, and fear of missing out lead traders to enter too late — often right into resistance zones where pullbacks are likely.


What Resistance Actually Means

Resistance is where selling pressure increases. Earlier buyers take profits, new sellers step in, and price often pauses or reverses. Buying here increases risk and lowers your probability of success.


Why Support Is the Better Entry Zone

Support is where buyers are more likely to step in. When price pulls back into support, the risk-to-reward improves and the probability of continuation increases.


Why the Current Market Is Different

In late 2025, many stocks were extended and trading near resistance. Today, many of those same stocks have pulled back into support, are consolidating, and may be starting to stabilize.

This creates a completely different environment for entries.


Change of Character and Early Trend Shifts

A change of character is often the first sign that a downtrend may be weakening. When combined with support and confirmation, it can signal that the market is transitioning into a new uptrend phase.


Why Backtests Matter More Than Breakouts

Strong moves often happen after a breakout, not during it. Waiting for a pullback into support (a backtest) can lead to calmer, lower-risk entries instead of chasing momentum.


A Simple Entry Framework

Before entering a trade, ask:

  • Is the overall structure bullish?
  • Is price near support?
  •  s there confluence?
  • Are we seeing a potential change of character?

If not, it may be better to wait.


Takeaway

Most beginners buy at the wrong time for three simple reasons:

  • They chase price after a big move
  • They don’t recognize resistance
  • They enter without a clear framework

But in the current market, the opportunity is shifting.

Many stocks that were overextended have now pulled back into support.

Instead of chasing strength, the focus should be on:

  • Support zones
  • Structure
  • Confluence
  • And early signs of trend change

This is what makes trading more calm, more repeatable, and much less emotional.

Has the Market Bottomed? (BOS vs CHOCH Explained)13 avr. 202600:11:46

Welcome to season 4, episode 14 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we break down two core concepts in technical analysis — Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH).

These are simple ideas, but they play a major role in helping you understand whether a trend is continuing or starting to reverse.

Given the current market conditions, this is especially important. We’ve been in a downtrend for months, and many traders are now asking: have we bottomed, or is there more downside?

Understanding these concepts can help you read charts with more clarity and confidence.

One of the biggest challenges for beginner traders is not knowing how to read market structure.

They see price moving, but they don’t have a clear framework to understand what the chart is actually telling them.

This episode simplifies that process by focusing on how trends form, how they continue, and how they potentially change.


What We Cover:


Market Structure Basics

Every chart is built on four simple ideas:

  • Higher Highs (HH)
  • Higher Lows (HL)
  • Lower Highs (LH)
  • Lower Lows (LL)

An uptrend is a series of higher highs and higher lows.

A downtrend is a series of lower highs and lower lows.

Once you understand this, everything else becomes easier.


What a Break of Structure (BOS) Means

A Break of Structure happens when price breaks a previous level in the direction of the trend.

In an uptrend, this means breaking above a previous high.

In a downtrend, it means breaking below a previous low.

This signals continuation — the trend is still intact and momentum is still strong.


What a Change of Character (CHOCH) Signals

A Change of Character is the first sign that a trend might be weakening.

It happens when price breaks structure in the opposite direction of the current trend.

For example, in a downtrend, if price breaks above a lower high, that’s a CHOCH.

It doesn’t guarantee a reversal, but it’s an early warning that something may be changing.


How BOS and CHOCH Work Together

The real value comes from combining these two concepts.

A typical reversal may look like this:

  • A stock is in a downtrend
  • Price breaks above a lower high (CHOCH)
  • Price pulls back and forms a higher low
  • Price breaks higher again (BOS)

This sequence provides stronger confirmation that the trend is shifting from bearish to bullish.


Why This Matters Right Now

With the market recently holding support, many charts are starting to show early signs of potential trend changes.

Seeing a CHOCH followed by a BOS can help build confidence that a bottom may be forming.

This allows for more structured and less emotional entries.

Welcome to season 4, episode 13 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we talk about one of the biggest reasons beginner traders lose money — and surprisingly, it’s not always because the stock itself was a bad investment.

Most losses happen because traders enter at the wrong place on the chart.

They buy after the move has already happened, often near resistance, instead of waiting for a lower-risk entry near support.

This episode breaks down why that happens, what support and resistance actually mean, and how a more patient, structured approach can improve your entries.


What We Cover:


Why Beginners Buy at the Wrong Time

Many traders buy after a stock has already run up. Momentum looks strong, people are talking about it, and fear of missing out kicks in. The result is often buying near resistance — just before a pullback.


What Resistance Actually Is

A resistance zone is an area where sellers tend to step in. Earlier buyers may take profits, short sellers may enter, and price often pauses or retraces. If you don’t know how to read charts, it’s easy to buy right into that zone.


Why Support Is Different

Support is an area where buyers have stepped in before and are more likely to step in again. When price pulls back into support, the probability of stabilization and continuation is much higher.


Why the Best Trades Often Happen After Pullbacks

With this strategy, the higher-probability entries usually happen after a stock retraces into support — not after a breakout has already run. If you miss the breakout, patience is often the better decision.


The Role of Confluence

Support is rarely just one exact price. It’s usually a zone where multiple signals line up, such as previous resistance flipping to support, moving averages, Fibonacci levels, the Ichimoku Cloud, or Gann levels. When several tools align, probability increases.


A Simple Entry Checklist

Before entering a trade, ask:

  • Is the overall market structure bullish?
  • Is price near support?
  • Is there confluence suggesting buyers will step in?

If not, it may be better to move on and wait for a better setup.


Takeaway

Most beginners buy at the wrong time for three simple reasons:

  • They chase price after a big move
  • They don’t recognize resistance zones
  • They enter without a clear framework


When you start focusing on bullish structure, support zones, and confluence, trading becomes more systematic, less emotional, and much easier to manage.

Welcome to season 4, episode 12 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we answer a question that’s been coming up frequently inside the group:

Should I be using a stop-loss?


Join the Free Trading Community

Join our free trading community (full course + weekly live Q&A):

👉 https://skool.com/trading

Inside the community you’ll find the full Momentum Trading Strategy course, plus weekly live Q&A sessions.



The honest answer inside the Momentum Trading Alliance framework is: it depends.

Not on the strategy — but on how you are executing the strategy.

This is where the Trading Avatar system becomes critical.


What We Cover:

Stop-Losses Are a Tool — Not a Rule

Stop-losses aren’t right or wrong. They’re simply a risk management tool. The real question is whether that tool fits your trading identity.


Avatar 1: The Active Trader

For active traders, stop-losses are often appropriate and recommended.

This avatar:

  • Trades more frequently
  • Manages lower timeframes
  • Takes profits sooner
  • Prefers tighter risk control


In this context, stop-losses:

  • Define risk before entry
  • Prevent short-term trades from becoming long-term holds
  • Enforce discipline
  • Limit emotional “hope holding”

Stops should always be structure-based — not emotional.


Avatars 2 & 3: Swing & Momentum Traders

For higher timeframe traders, stop-losses are not the primary risk management tool.

These avatars:

  • Trade bullish weekly structure
  • Enter at support with confluence
  • Expect normal pullbacks
  • Use small, incremental position sizing


Tight stops often work against this approach. In bullish markets, price frequently dips into support before continuing higher. A tight stop can remove you from a valid trend.

Instead, risk is managed through:

  • Proper position sizing
  • Structure-based invalidation
  • Patience
  • Consistency

Exits happen when structure breaks — not simply because price moves temporarily against you.


The Real Issue: Mixing Styles

Problems arise when traders mix avatars.

Entering like a momentum trader but exiting like an active trader creates inconsistency and stress. Risk management must match execution style.

Both approaches work. What matters is alignment.


Takeaway

If you’re confused about stop-losses, it’s likely not a strategy issue — it’s an identity issue.

Once you define your trading avatar, risk management decisions become clearer and emotions decrease.

Scaling In & Out - How Momentum Traders Actually Build Positions27 févr. 202600:09:51

Welcome to season 4, episode 11 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we break down one of the core engines behind the momentum trading strategy: scaling in and scaling out.

This is how positions are built.

This is how volatility is managed.

And this is how emotional mistakes are reduced.

Losses don’t only come from bad analysis — they often come from bad allocation. Buying too much too fast. Selling everything on the first pullback. Going all in emotionally… then all out emotionally.

Scaling fixes that.


What We Cover:

Why Scaling Matters

Markets move in waves — not straight lines. Perfect entries and exits aren’t realistic, and they aren’t necessary. Scaling removes the need to be perfect and keeps you aligned with structure instead of emotion.

Scaling In (Momentum Trader Focus)

For the momentum trader, scaling in means building a position over time — not entering all at once.

  • Start small (often 1–3% initial exposure).
  • Maximum exposure per stock around 10% (adjust to your risk tolerance).
  • Add only at support with bullish structure and confluence.
  • Never add just because price is rising or to “make it back.”


Small entries create flexibility. They make pullbacks tolerable. They allow you to improve risk-to-reward if price rotates lower into valid support.

In strong trends, deeper pullbacks often become opportunities — not automatic exits.


Scaling Up With Momentum

As higher highs form and structure confirms, additional entries can be made at new support zones or breakout backtests. Exposure grows with confirmed structure — not emotion.


Scaling Out (Momentum Approach)

Scaling out is not about selling because you’re green.
 It’s not about reacting to every pullback.

The momentum trader is paid for patience.

Reduce exposure when:

  • Weekly structure shifts bearish
  • Major support breaks and fails to reclaim
  • Key tools flip to resistance
  • Repeated highs fail


If momentum remains intact, you stay.

 If momentum breaks, you protect capital.

More active trading avatars may take profits sooner, but more activity also introduces more decisions — and often more emotional mistakes.


Takeaway

Scaling in and scaling out allows you to manage risk without guessing. It replaces perfection with structure. It keeps allocation aligned with trend and removes the need for emotional timing.

This is how meaningful positions are built calmly over time.

Most beginners don’t struggle because they’re incapable — they struggle because there’s no structure. Entries aren’t defined, exits aren’t planned, and position sizes are inconsistent. That leads to chasing breakouts, buying near resistance, and reacting emotionally mid-trade.


The Core Framework (Simple & Repeatable):

  1. Only Buy at Support — Never at Resistance
    If price is at support within a bullish structure, consider it. If it’s near resistance, wait. This one rule eliminates many bad trades.
  2. Use Confluence to Confirm Support
    Look for multiple tools aligning (moving averages, Fibonacci levels, prior breakout zones, Gann levels). Don’t force setups — let price come to you.
  3. Choose Your Trading Avatar Before Entry
    Decide if the trade is active, swing, or momentum before you enter. Execution depends on identity. Mixing styles mid-trade creates confusion.
  4. Journal Before You Enter
    Write down why you’re entering, where support is, what confirms the trade, and where you’ll exit. If you can’t explain it clearly, skip it.
  5. Strict Position Sizing
    Scale in slowly. Never go too heavy too soon. Manage risk through sizing — not emotion.


The Outcome:

When rules are predefined, decisions become faster and clearer.

  • No debating mid-trade.
  • No emotional exits.
  • No chasing.


Trading becomes structured instead of chaotic — and structured trading feels completely different.

The strategy, at its core, is simple:

  • Buy at support.
  • Use confluence.
  • Know your exit before entry.
  • Manage risk with position sizing.
  • Don’t chase.

That’s it.

Welcome to season 4, episode 9 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, I share a personal experience that ultimately pushed me to start actively managing my own portfolio — and why that decision turned out to be one of the most important shifts in my trading journey.

Several years ago, I placed a significant amount of money into a professionally managed fund. At the time, it felt responsible. But after two years of underperformance — while a separate account I managed myself was doing better — I began asking deeper questions.

Was managing my own money irresponsible… or was managing it without rules the real problem?

In this episode, we break down what I learned about:

  • The true cost of management fees over time
  • Why many active funds underperform basic benchmarks like the S&P 500
  • The difference between volatility and risk
  • Why structure matters more than outsourcing responsibility
  • How trading with rules changes everything

This isn’t about being anti–financial advisor. For many people, advisors are the right move. But if you’re already studying charts, learning technical analysis, and trying to build skill — the conversation becomes different.


The key realization:

Managing your own money isn’t reckless. Managing it without structure is.

We also talk about:

  • Why chasing headlines creates stress
  • The power of buying at support (never at resistance)
  • How journaling removes emotional decisions
  • Why choosing a trading identity (or “trading avatar”) simplifies execution
  • How patience and position sizing reduce panic during pullbacks

Over time, the goal stopped being “learn everything” and became “execute one strategy well.” Watching charts weekly, marking support zones, setting alerts, and following clear rules made trading calmer and more consistent.

When I chose a momentum-style identity and stopped mixing trading styles mid-trade, execution became easier. No more reacting to every candle — just following a plan.

Welcome to season 4, episode 8 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

In this episode, we break down why your trading strategy usually isn’t the real problem—and what actually causes traders to struggle with consistency.

After years of studying trading and running an eight-week mentorship with live chart reviews and implementation calls, the same issues kept showing up again and again. Not confusion about strategy, but emotions, unclear rules, and misaligned trading styles.

We’ll talk about why trading becomes emotional without structure, how rules and journaling reduce stress, why identifying your trading avatar matters, and how risk management, leverage, and patience play a major role in long-term success.


Key Topics:

Why Trading Becomes Emotional
Without predefined rules, traders struggle most at exits. Uncertainty around when to sell, add, or hold creates stress—especially during pullbacks or volatile markets.

Define Entries and Exits Before the Trade
Writing down why you’re entering and when you’ll exit—before placing the trade—dramatically reduces emotional decision-making. A core rule of this strategy: only buy at support, never at resistance.

Trading Avatars and Identity
Knowing whether you’re an active trader, swing trader, or momentum trader determines how you manage profits, volatility, and pullbacks. Aligning exits with your personality removes second-guessing.

The Power of Journaling
A simple journal (stock, support level, confluence, avatar, emotions, exit plan) helps confirm that trades are rule-based—not emotional—and keeps you disciplined during daily price noise.

Risk Management, Leverage, and Options
Overleveraging and misunderstanding margin or options increases stress and risk. Consistent position sizing and avoiding unnecessary leverage helps traders stay calm during normal retracements.

Patience Pays
This strategy rewards patience—waiting for stocks to retrace into support instead of chasing extended moves. Markets never move straight up, and strong support zones offer better risk-to-reward opportunities.

Takeaways

Your strategy isn’t usually the issue—lack of structure is. Define your rules before entering, know your trading avatar, journal every trade, manage risk carefully, and let price come to you. When trading is calm and mechanical, probabilities are allowed to play out.

Welcome to season 4, episode 7 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

After wrapping up eight weeks of live training inside the first Momentum Trading Alliance mentorship, one theme kept coming up—not what strategy to use, but how to trade it. Members weren’t confused about entries; they were unsure about exits, profit-taking, patience, and activity level. That’s where the idea of Trading Avatars was born.

In this episode, we break down how the same momentum strategy can be expressed in different ways depending on your schedule, risk tolerance, and personality—and why clarity around your trading identity is the key to consistency and stress-free execution.


Key Topics:

Why Strategy Isn’t the Problem

Most traders struggle not because they lack a strategy, but because they don’t know how to execute it consistently. Mixing styles—buying like an investor and selling like a day trader—leads to emotional decisions and broken rules.


What Is a Trading Avatar?

A trading avatar is your trading identity. It defines how often you trade, which timeframes matter, how you manage risk, and when you take profits—so decisions are made before the trade, not in the moment.


The Four Trading Avatars Explained

  • The Active Trader: Frequent trades, quicker exits, profits taken at resistance
  • The Swing Trader: Weekly structure, partial profits, balanced activity (best fit for most traders)
  • The Momentum Trader: Fewer trades, bigger moves, holds through pullbacks
  • The Long-Term Investor: Monthly/weekly focus, low stress, long-term positioning


Why Alignment Beats Discipline

Two traders can take the same setup and manage it differently—both correctly. The difference isn’t skill, it’s alignment. Avatars don’t make you trade better; they help you trade consistently.


Takeaways

If trading feels stressful or you’re constantly second-guessing exits, the issue may not be your strategy—it may be that you haven’t chosen the right trading avatar yet. Once your avatar is defined, execution becomes mechanical, emotions fade, and consistency improves.

Welcome to season 4, episode 6 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

When I first started trading, charts felt random and frustrating—until I learned the breakout backtest strategy. It transformed my portfolio, and now beginners in our group are spotting consistent setups in weeks. Building on last episode's "buy at support, sell at resistance" framework, here we discuss the precise entry points for low-risk trades in bullish stocks. Listen for a simple, patient approach that minimizes stress and maximizes wins.

Inside the community you’ll find the full Momentum Trading Strategy course, plus weekly live Q&A sessions.


Key Topics:

Step 1: Spot Proven Winners and Build Your Watchlist

Focus on bullish stocks in uptrends for low-risk trades—nothing rises straight up, so capitalize on natural rhythms. Diversify with speculative trend-changers if your risk tolerance allows, but beginners should stick to strong performers. Use AI like Grok or ChatGPT to generate 30-50 bullish stock ideas (e.g., heading into 2026). Or grab our free list in the Skool group. Confirm uptrends on TradingView's weekly chart: Look for higher highs/lows (market structure) and Ichimoku Cloud (above lines with green future cloud = bullish). Example: Coinbase post-April 2025 shows bullish engulfing candles and volatility but upward trend; avoid pre-2025 bearish phases with lower highs/lows.


Step 2: Wait for the Pullback

Patience is key—don't chase breakouts or buy at resistance, a common beginner mistake leading to panic sells. Overextended stocks reverse sharply; recent October 2025 red days (5-20% drops) follow massive prior gains (50-100%). Identify resistance (prior highs, indicators) and let price come to you. Pullbacks are healthy for momentum—buyers step in at support, positioning you for the next leg up.


Step 3: Enter at Support Zones

When pullbacks hit support with confluence (multiple indicators aligning), that's your low-risk entry. Use Ichimoku Cloud, Fibonacci, Gann Squares, or flipped resistance. Don't fear red days—they're buying opportunities. In volatile markets like November 2025, enter cautiously to avoid deeper retracements. This yields high win rates, low stress, and high rewards as bullish stocks resume uptrends.


Takeaways

Don't chase—build a watchlist, confirm trends, wait for pullbacks, and enter at support for conviction and gains. This strategy boosted my portfolio this year and helps our community trade flexibly without constant monitoring. Start with a few stocks to build skills.

Welcome to season 4, episode 5 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast!

When I first started trading, I felt totally overwhelmed staring at price charts without knowing when to enter. Then I discovered a one-rule strategy that changed everything: only buy at support. After six months of trading real money, my portfolio jumped 144%, and I only spent minimal time scanning charts. In this episode, I break down this simple, stress-free approach that delivers real results—no fancy setups required.

Key Topics:


Building a Watchlist of Bullish Stocks 

I start by explaining how to spot bullish stocks without needing screeners or scanners. Use AI tools like Grok or ChatGPT to generate a list of 30-50 stocks in trending sectors (e.g., Palantir, Tesla, Amazon). Plug them into TradingView, check for higher highs and higher lows on the weekly timeframe, and use the Ichimoku Cloud for a quick bullish/bearish confirmation—above the cloud with a green future cloud means it's a keeper.


Learning from Past Mistakes with Market Structure 

I share my own story with Tesla: It hit an all-time high around $414.50 in late 2021, then shifted to bearish lower highs and lows, dropping to $100 by January 2023. I held through massive unrealized losses because I ignored technicals and focused only on fundamentals. Fast-forward to now in late 2025, and Tesla's showing positive structure, building a base above that old $414.50 resistance—proving why bullish market structure keeps you on the winning side.


Identifying Support Zones for Safe Entries 

Once you've confirmed a bullish trend, I dive into finding support zones where buyers step in and prices are likely to hold. Use historical price data (like old resistance turning into support), plus tools like the Ichimoku Cloud, Fibonacci retracements, and Gann squares. Don't fear pullbacks in bull markets—they're prime buying opportunities for better risk-reward. I emphasize accumulating shares here to keep things low-stress.


Taking Profits at Resistance (or Holding for Momentum) 

Finally, I cover when to sell: at resistance zones identified the same way as support—historical levels and indicators. If you like trading in and out, lock in gains here to avoid mistakes. Personally, I prefer holding through volatility in bullish stocks to ride the momentum, but either way, never buy at resistance.


Takeaways

This boils down to one rule: only buy at support in bullish stocks—it's shockingly simple but tough with emotions in play. I've seen great results personally, and beginners in our group are up and running with positive gains in weeks. Trading doesn't have to be overwhelming; this strategy proves it.

Welcome to season 4, episode 4 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast! 

If trading is so profitable, why doesn't everyone do it? In this episode we talk about the 7 invisible barriers that sabotage beginners—not the markets or smarts, but fixable issues like info overload and mindset traps. I share how to overcome them for stress-free trading.


Join the Free Trading Community

Inside the community you’ll find the full Momentum Trading Strategy course, plus weekly live Q&A sessions.


Key Topics: 

  1. Overwhelm from Information Overload I wasted months on day trading because endless online strategies led to analysis paralysis. The fix: Reflect on your schedule and eliminate mismatched approaches. Align with your lifestyle before diving deep—join a group or mentor for a fitting strategy.
  2. Mindset Over Mechanics Charts matter, but emotions like greed, fear, anger, overconfidence, and poor discipline derail plans. I counter them with disciplined entries, journaling, breaks, rule adherence, and checklists. Master psychology to avoid quitting early.
  3. Craving Quick Wins Over Steady Gains Social media flaunts overnight riches, but real success is patient compounding. I warn against chasing flashiness—if you need fast cash, you'll make bad decisions. Focus on long-term strategies where patience equals profits.
  4. Clash with Daily Routines Day trading didn't fit my 9-5 and family life. I recommend swing or position trading for flexibility—no need to watch markets live. Choose strategies that match your commitments to avoid burnout.
  5. Underestimating Skill-Building Time Mastery isn't just videos; it's hands-on practice charting stocks and spotting patterns. I emphasize deliberate grind—excitement fades, but discipline builds you as a trader. Commit to the work beyond initial hype.
  6. Falling for Flashy Shortcuts Relying on others' picks keeps you dependent. I started with mentors but aimed for independence—learn to fish, build conviction. Avoid unease from copying; use communities to gain skills for solo trading.
  7. Lacking a Good Community Trading alone breeds doubt and early quits. I stress joining accountability groups focused on the same strategy for support, shared charts, and habits. It's key to persistence.


Takeaways

These barriers are fixable with mindset shifts, lifestyle-aligned strategies, and community support. Trading becomes simple once tackled.

Welcome to season 4, episode 3 of the Stock Trading for Beginners Podcast! We're covering a common beginner mistake: thinking you need a ton of cash to start trading stocks profitably.

Key Topics: 

Account Size Is Relative—It Doesn't Determine My Success

I used to think I needed tens of thousands to trade, keeping me in analysis paralysis. Success is about percentages, risk management, and growth. I start with under $1,000 and scale up from savings or side income. I focus on consistent gains—a 10% return is the same skill on any account size. Use brokerages like Robinhood or Fidelity with low minimums and fractional shares for high-priced stocks like Tesla. Our Skool poll shows half beginners started under $1,000, proving it's relative.


Stocks Are Safer Than Options for Beginners

Options tempt small accounts with leverage but are complex and risky due to time decay and volatility. Studies say 70-90% of options traders lose money; events like the October 10th crypto crash show risks. I recommend stocks with momentum—no expirations let me hold through dips. Fractional shares allow 1-3% risk per trade. Avoid options' manipulation and max pain.


Trade to Grow Wealth, Not for Instant Income

Treating trading as a job for bills leads to emotional risks like chasing wins or panic-selling. I focus on long-term compounding with a plan to control emotions. Trade only affordable money, build other income to fund accounts. Even small accounts grow steadily without rushing.


Takeaways

Start small, focus on percentages, add funds over time. Choose stocks over options for safety and ease. Trade for long-term wealth, not quick cash. Join the Skool group at https://www.skool.com/trading for the free course and community.

Key Topics: Five Emotional Traps & Fixes

  1. Greed: Chasing Breakouts
    • Problem: I see a stock soaring (like Tesla at $460 resistance), and FOMO pushes me to buy at the peak, only to face a reversal and loss.
    • Why It Happens: A scarcity mindset, dopamine-driven hype, and anchoring bias (fixating on a stock’s recent surge) cloud my judgment.
    • Fix: I cap my weekly trades, focus on long-term disciplined trading, and avoid chasing quick profits. I stick to charts, not news or social media hype.
  2. Fear: Selling Too Early
    • Problem: I panic-sell at support or cut winners short, like when I sold Tesla at $100 in 2022-23, missing the rebound.
    • Why It Happens: Loss aversion, tying my self-worth to trades, and worrying about looking foolish drive irrational exits.
    • Fix: I journal every trade, noting why I entered or exited. Reflecting on whether decisions were logic-based or fear-driven helps me trust my strategy.
  3. Anger: Revenge Trading
    • Problem: After a loss, I feel cheated and jump into risky trades to “win back” money, often digging a deeper hole.
    • Why It Happens: Entitlement bias makes me think the market owes me, triggering impulsive, fight-or-flight trades.
    • Fix: I take a break—a day or a week—to reset emotionally. Stepping away or going for a walk keeps me rational.
  4. Overconfidence: Ignoring Signals
    • Problem: After a winning streak, I feel like a market genius, ignoring charts or skipping stop-losses, like buying at resistance despite signals.
    • Why It Happens: The illusion of control, confirmation bias, and the Dunning-Kruger effect (overestimating my skills) lead to risky moves.
    • Fix: I stick to my strategy rules, using cues like sticky notes to remind myself to buy only at support and stay disciplined.
  5. Weak Discipline: Abandoning Strategy
    • Problem: I ignore my rules, swayed by impulse, market noise (like X posts), or decision fatigue, leading to inconsistent trading.
    • Why It Happens: Present bias makes me chase instant gratification over long-term goals, especially without clear rules.
    • Fix: I use a pre-trade checklist for entries, exits, and risk management. Following my strategy (shared in the Skool group) keeps me on track.


Takeaways

  • Start Small: I pick one fix, like journaling or a checklist, to tackle emotional traps.
  • Join the Community: I invite you to Skool.com/trading for my free strategy course, rules, and community support.
  • Stay Disciplined: I focus on charts, stick to my strategy, and avoid emotional trading to boost profitability.

In this episode, we talk about the critical topic of trading psychology, exploring a powerful quote from Jared Tendler’s book, The Mental Game of Trading: “The charts are a mirror that reflects your inner self.” We discuss how your emotions, biases, and mental blocks shape your trading decisions and how Tendler’s system can help you turn psychological flaws into strengths.

Key Topics Discussed

  1. Introduction to Trading Psychology
    • Why technical know-how isn’t enough—your mindset can make or break your strategy.
    • The importance of joining our free Skool community (skool.com/trading) to learn and share experiences.
    • Overview of The Mental Game of Trading by Jared Tendler, a top mental performance coach who applies lessons from competitive golf to trading.
  2. The Quote: “The Charts Are a Mirror That Reflects Your Inner Self”
    • Charts provide objective data (prices, volume, trends), but your reactions reveal emotions like fear, greed, or hesitation.
    • How your internal world—biases, past traumas, or impulses—distorts your interpretation of market data.
    • Using charts not just for market analysis but as a tool for self-reflection to turn losses into lessons.
  3. Jared Tendler’s Approach
    • Tendler frames common trading mistakes (chasing, overtrading) as psychological, not technical, issues.
    • Emotions like greed, fear, and anger are root causes of trading errors.
    • Practical tools like journaling, visualization, and mapping emotional patterns to build mental resilience.
    • Treating emotions as data to identify triggers and correct flaws.
  4. Real-World Examples
    • Example 1: A trader hesitates during a breakout pattern due to fear from past losses, missing an opportunity and feeling frustrated (“tilt” in poker terms). Tendler’s system suggests journaling emotions and using pre-trade routines to build confidence.
    • Example 2: An overconfident trader takes an oversized position on a head-and-shoulders pattern, amplifying losses. Reflection reveals a need for validation through wins, not strategy.
  5. Actionable Tips to Apply Tendler’s Philosophy
    • Journal Your Feelings: After each trade, note how the chart made you feel (stressed, excited, etc.) and compare it to the objective data (price, volume).
    • Spot Emotional Triggers: Identify chart patterns (e.g., sudden drops or breakouts) that spark fear, greed, or FOMO (fear of missing out).
    • Stay Calm with Visualization: View charts as neutral tools, like a mirror, to avoid emotional reactions.
    • Maintain Emotional Balance: Avoid overtrading or overconfidence by keeping a steady, patient mindset.

Welcome to season 3, episode 10 of the Day Trading for Beginners Podcast! I'm Tyler Stokes and in this episode, I share my journey of moving away from being an all-in Tesla investor. After achieving over 65% portfolio gains in just a few months of trading real money, I’ve learned valuable lessons about diversification, technical analysis, and avoiding the pitfalls of putting all your eggs in one basket. This episode reveals why I shifted my investment strategy and how technical analysis transformed my approach to trading.

Portfolio updates: Trading Challenge 2025


Key Topics Discussed:

  1. The All-In Tesla Trap
    • Why I was captivated by Tesla’s innovation, leadership, and growth from 2020 onward.
    • The risks of having my entire portfolio in one stock, despite riding Tesla’s surge.
    • The volatility and opportunity costs (e.g., missing Nvidia’s 10x growth from 2022–2025).
  2. Lessons from Market Volatility
    • Tesla’s rollercoaster ride: From $400 to $100 and back, losing 75% at its low.
    • Realizing fundamentals don’t drive short-term stock prices—price charts do.
    • How a basic understanding of market structure in 2022 could have signaled a pivot.
  3. The Power of Technical Analysis
    • Discovering price charts as the real-time story of a stock’s performance.
    • How charts signaled Tesla’s trouble before bad news hit, unlike fundamentals.
    • Using support, resistance, and momentum to time entries and exits.
  4. Why Diversification Wins
    • No single stock stays the best forever—diversification reduces risk and stress.
    • Shifting from dismissing diversification to embracing it as a strategic tool.
    • Building a core portfolio of 5–10 stocks with strong momentum, guided by technical analysis.
  5. Rebalancing My Portfolio
    • Reducing Tesla exposure in tax-efficient accounts (e.g., TFSA, RRSP) to avoid heavy taxes.
    • Selling at resistance zones and buying other stocks at support zones.
    • Maintaining Tesla as my largest position while exploring other high-potential stocks.
  6. Lessons Learned
    • Conviction in one stock has limits—flexibility and informed decisions win.
    • Regularly assess charts, rebalance when needed, and prioritize diversification.
    • The market rewards adaptability, not blind loyalty to a single stock.

Why This Matters

If you’re heavily invested in one stock (Tesla or otherwise), my journey might encourage you to rethink your approach. Studying price charts and embracing diversification can open the door to a more resilient financial future. Technical analysis helped me break free from the all-in mindset, and my trading strategy—outlined in our Skool group—has driven my success in 2025.

How Momentum Trading Works:

1. Spot Opportunities: Find stocks in strong uptrends on daily/weekly charts (higher highs, higher lows). Use TradingView screeners or Grok to build a watchlist of high-potential stocks (e.g., crypto, AI, tech).

2. Buy at Support: Enter at proven support zones where indicators align (Ichimoku Cloud, moving averages, Fibonacci retracements, Gann Squares). Start with 1-3% positions to manage risk—never buy at resistance.

3. Ride and Accumulate: Hold as stocks rise, adding shares at new support zones during pullbacks. Cap exposure at 10% per stock. Ride momentum for weeks/months, avoiding premature sells.

4. Exit Strategically: Sell when momentum fades (broken support, flat trends, lower highs). Take partial profits or exit fully to lock in gains and rotate capital.

Why It Works: This low-stress strategy avoids emotional traps like FOMO or overtrading, focusing on patience and high-probability setups. It’s ideal for beginners with busy schedules, but trading carries risks, and results aren’t guaranteed.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Letting Emotions Take Control: Emotions like fear and greed can lead to poor trades. Stick to a trading plan and journal your feelings to stay disciplined.
  • Chasing Breakouts into Traps: Avoid buying at resistance; wait for pullbacks to support levels instead.
  • Overtrading: Too many trades can drain your account. Focus on quality setups and resist the urge to trade out of boredom.
  • Ignoring Risk Management: Over-leveraging or risking too much per trade can wipe you out. Use 1-3% entries and aim for steady gains.
  • Abandoning Your Strategy: Stick to your plan, even when the market tests you, to avoid emotional trading.
  • Buying High, Selling Low: Resist buying at peaks and selling at dips—use technical analysis to find support and resistance zones.
  • Lack of Patience and Discipline: Treat trading as a long-term game, waiting for high-probability setups rather than forcing trades.

Key Takeaway: Mistakes are part of the learning process—think of losses as tuition for mastering the markets. Awareness and a solid strategy can minimize damage and build confidence.

Hi and welcome back to the Day Trading For Beginners podcast! I’m Tyler Stokes from StokesTrades.com, and this is Season 3, Episode 6. Today, I’m breaking down momentum trading, the strategy I’m using in my real money challenge from last week. I’m a beginner on a journey to become a full-time trader, but with my schedule, day trading’s not something I can actively do at the moment. So I'm gaining experience with this strategy.

What I Covered

  • Momentum Trading Basics: What it is and how it differs from day trading.
  • Why I Chose It: My schedule led me to this slower, less stressful approach.
  • How It Works: Buy at support, ride the trend, hold for bigger moves.
  • Tools I Use: Market structure, moving averages, and more—simple stuff!


Key Takeaways

  • Momentum trading is about catching strong bull trends—higher highs, higher lows—buying at support when buyers are in charge. Think wealth-building, not quick flips! 
  • I stumbled into it because day trading’s fast pace doesn’t fit my life right now (kids, family, etc.). This strategy mixes swing trading vibes—holding days, weeks, or longer. That being said, you CAN trade this strategy on shorter time frames.
  • How I do it: Spot bullish structure, buy low at support zones (using tools like Fibonacci, Ichimoku Cloud), and set limit orders at night—no daily stress!
  • It’s slower than day trading (fast profits, in-and-out) but simpler for beginners IMO. You don’t need to watch every tick—just ride the trend and be patient.
  • Tie-in: My real money challenge (updates in my Skool Group) uses this strategy—see my trades in action!


Why It Matters

Day trading’s the end goal (at least I think it is right now), but momentum trading fits my reality—less time, less pressure, and still profitable if the trend’s right. For beginners, it’s a gentler start: no lightning-fast moves, just spotting trends and holding on. It’s teaching me patience, planning, and market structure—skills I’ll carry to day trading later. Plus, with markets shaky now (tariffs, flash crashes), buying support could pay off big down the road—not financial advice, just my take!


Final Thoughts

I hope this peek into momentum trading helps! It’s not as flashy as day trading (still my goal!), but it’s working for me—slower, calmer, and wealth-focused. Markets are wild right now, but that’s where support zones shine. Join the Skool Group and follow my real trades and see this strategy play out. Thanks for listening—catch you next episode!

What I Covered

  • The Challenge: I’m trading real money with my momentum strategy—fully transparent.
  • Strategy Basics: It’s about buying support, selling resistance.
  • Rules & Goals: Five core rules to keep me disciplined, plus a Tesla benchmark.
  • Why Now: Volatile markets could be my chance—or my downfall.
  • Follow Along: Updates in my Skool group—trades, wins, losses, and lessons.


Key Takeaways

  • I’m kicking off today, April 7, 2025, with a market symmetry strategy (details in my Skoo group). Every trade—entries, exits, wins, losses—goes public there. Total transparency!
  • My five rules: 1) Stick to the strategy, 2) Never chase price, 3) Limit position size, 4) Buy at support, sell at resistance, 5) Stay uncomfortable—buy when it’s tough. More in the group!
  • The fun part: Can I outperform Tesla stock by December 31, 2025? I sold some Tesla shares to fund this (not bearish—just wanted to raise cash!).
  • Why now? Markets are shaky—S&P’s dropping, tariffs are looming, fear’s everywhere. For a momentum trader, these dips might be golden if I time support zones right.
  • Not financial advice! I’m a beginner, not an advisor. This is my journey—watch, learn, but trade your own way.


Why It Matters

This challenge is about discipline—sharing every trade keeps me honest (no FOMO slip-ups!). It’s also about teaching—if you’re new, you might pick up something useful. Markets are wild, but I’m betting on patience and smart moves. I’ll lean on analysts for ideas, but every trade’s my call. Good or bad, you’ll see it all—I’m learning as I go!


Final Thoughts

I’m excited to launch this challenge! Will I beat Tesla? Honestly, I’m not sure—Tesla’s my biggest holding, and I think it’ll soar by year-end (not advice!). But this is about testing my skills, staying disciplined, and sharing the ride. Join me in my Skool group for weekly trade updates and monthly portfolio check-ins, wrapping up December 31st. Thanks for listening—let’s see how this goes!

Hi and welcome back to the Day Trading For Beginners podcast! I’m Tyler Stokes from StokesTrades.com, and today I’m digging into why markets wear you down and breaking down support zones for new traders. I recorded this on Monday, March 24, 2025—a green day after a rough month. In my last episode, I talked about liquidity grabs, predicting March might end with a rebound. Before that, I covered market structure and high-timeframe support. Now, as we head into April, I’m tying it all together—did March’s dip hold as a base? By the time you hear this, we’ll know if the market bounced back. Either way, I’m here to explain why these ups and downs test your patience and how understanding support zones can keep you sane.

What I Covered

  • Why Markets Exhaust You: How constant testing of support zones messes with your head.
  • Support Zones 101: What they are and why they’re key for beginners.
  • Famous Quotes: Wisdom from Warren Buffett and John Maynard Keynes to guide you.
  • Capitulation Explained: What it looks like when traders give up—and why it might signal a bottom.
  • Real Example: My own Tesla capitulation moment in 2023 and what I learned.


Key Takeaways

  • Markets wear you down by repeatedly testing support zones—think of them as invisible floors (e.g., $45 for a stock) where buyers step in, but the price keeps dipping back to test it. It’s like a ball bouncing over and over, asking, “Will this hold?”
  • I love Warren Buffett’s line: “The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient.” If you panic-sell at $45 fearing a drop to $40, patient traders win when it rebounds to $48 or higher.
  • Then there’s John Maynard Keynes’ warning: “The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.” If $45 breaks and drops to $35 for months, you might run out of cash or nerve—especially on margin.
  • Capitulation is when everyone panics and sells (e.g., a break from $45 to $40, then $30). It’s scary, but often marks a bottom—like Tesla’s $101 low in January 2023 after a 65% drop, only to rebound to $173 by month-end. I sold some shares there and learned the hard way!
  • Right now, March 24th feels like a test. If support holds and we’re green into April, it’s a win for patience over panic—maybe even a liquidity grab bottom from last episode.


Why It Matters

Trading’s a mental game as much as a numbers game. Markets test support to shake out the impatient—market makers love this, scooping up cheap shares while we fret. For beginners, knowing this helps you stay calm, spot patterns, and avoid selling low or betting too big. Experience matters—my Tesla flop taught me that technical analysis and patience could’ve saved me. This isn’t tied to one strategy; it’s market wisdom for all traders.

Hi and welcome back to the Day Trading For Beginners podcast! I’m Tyler Stokes from StokesTrades.com, and this is Season 3, Episode 3. Today, I’m talking about liquidity grabs and market makers—two concepts that might sound mysterious but are key to understanding wild price swings. If you’ve ever wondered what a liquidity grab is or who these “market makers” are that people keep talking about, I’ve got you covered.

What I Covered

  • Liquidity Grabs Explained: What they are, why they happen, and how they look on a chart.
  • Market Makers Unmasked: Who these big players are and how they pull the strings.
  • Triggers: How stop-loss orders and leverage liquidations fuel these moves.
  • Real-World Context: Why March 2025’s sell-off might just be a scare tactic by market makers.
  • Beginner Tips: How to spot these patterns and avoid panic-selling or chasing highs.


Key Takeaways

  • I define a liquidity grab as a sharp price detour—dropping below support or spiking past resistance—to scoop up shares or cash, then snap back like nothing happened. Picture a net grabbing what’s available!
  • These moves often tie to stop-loss orders (e.g., a $49.50 stop below $50 support triggers a sell-off) and leverage liquidations (e.g., Bitcoin dropping from $100K to low $70Ks forces margin sales).
  • Market makers are the heavy hitters—like Citadel Securities, big banks (JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs), or exchange specialists—keeping markets flowing with deep pockets and fast tech. They spot order clusters and push prices to trigger them, grabbing shares cheap or selling high.
  • Right now, I see this in action: Bitcoin’s fall to the $70Ks and Tesla’s dip to the low $200s might be market makers scaring retail traders into selling low—only to rebound later.
  • My advice? Don’t panic-sell at support or chase all-time highs—understanding this can turn confusion into opportunity.


Why It Matters

After a year of studying charts, I’ve learned these swings aren’t random. Market makers exploit fear and greed, especially in the short term, to profit or manage inventory. For beginners, grasping this helps you see past the noise—whether it’s a news scare or a sudden drop—and stick to your strategy. Long-term, fundamentals win, but short-term, these players can shake things up!


Final Thoughts

I hope this clears up liquidity grabs and market makers for you! It’s wild to think this month’s sell-off could just be a big wick by April—proof that fear doesn’t always mean a bear market. (Not financial advice—just my take!)

Find My Script Here: https://stokestrades.com/morning-routine-for-traders/


Why a Morning Routine?

The reality is, many of us juggle multiple responsibilities alongside trading, which makes a disciplined start to the day even more valuable. A structured morning routine has transformed my productivity, a practice I honed while running my online business before transitioning to trading.


The Miracle Morning Method

Today, I want to share the Miracle Morning method, which can revolutionize your mornings and can be adapted for trading. The method includes:

  1. Silence (S): Start with meditation or deep breathing to calm the mind and reduce stress, crucial for avoiding emotional trading and just starting your day on the right path.
  2. Affirmations (A): Reinforce your trading goals and mindset with positive affirmations. These help solidify your commitment and focus.
  3. Visualization (V): Picture your trading day unfolding successfully, which can help manifest these outcomes in reality. 
  4. Exercise (E): A brief physical activity can energize you and enhance mental clarity.
  5. Reading (R): Spend a few minutes reading something educational or motivational to expand your trading knowledge.
  6. Scribing (S): Journaling your trading plan and reflections can improve discipline and track progress.


Implementing the Routine

This routine doesn’t need to be lengthy; even a condensed version can significantly impact your trading mindset and effectiveness. Tailor it to fit your lifestyle and see how it transforms your productivity and trading discipline.


Adapting to Realities

Life’s unpredictabilities, like family commitments or unexpected illnesses, can disrupt our routines. It’s crucial to maintain a long-term perspective and adapt. Success in trading, like in any professional field, requires persistence and resilience.


Looking Ahead

Throughout this season, we will explore practical trading applications and share real-money trading experiences, documenting the journey in our community on Skool. Join us there for more detailed discussions and to share your progress.

Thanks for tuning in to the first episode of season three. I'm excited to share more about my trading journey and helpful routines that support trading success. Check out the links below for additional resources, and I look forward to connecting with you in our community and future episodes.

Lessons Learned

The most significant takeaway this year has been the importance of trading psychology. The mental aspect of trading, including dealing with overtrading, FOMO, and maintaining patience, is crucial. Understanding that opportunities in trading are recurrent and that you don't need to rush or force trades was a pivotal lesson. Many successful traders have experienced significant losses early in their careers, underscoring the importance of psychological resilience and the necessity to stick to your strategy meticulously.


Tools and Strategies

In terms of tools, TradingView has been indispensable for chart analysis, and I recommend it to anyone in the trading field. While paper trading, I realized the importance of not overly stressing about having perfect market data since the strategy I employ doesn’t require split-second decisions typical in day trading or scalping.

Regarding trading strategies, while I began with an intent to day trade, the swing and momentum trading strategies aligned better with my personal and professional schedule. This adaptability is crucial as your trading strategy should complement your lifestyle and availability.


Community and Mentorship

Finding a mentor or joining a community that aligns with your trading goals is vital. However, be cautious as the trading education space can be fraught with expensive and unhelpful courses. The community on Skool, although geared towards beginners, is an excellent start for consistent engagement and learning.


Looking Ahead to 2025

As we move into 2025, I plan to start trading with real money, cautiously and transparently. I intend to share my trades within the community, which will not only help others but also enforce discipline in my trading practices. The next season will focus more on specific trading aspects that we didn't get to cover like market structure and understanding market makers’ influence, which are often overlooked but critical for trading success.


Final Thoughts

For beginners, my advice is to start slowly but remain consistent. Paper trade to make your initial mistakes without financial consequence, and immerse yourself in a community or mentorship to enhance your learning curve. Remember, the journey to becoming a successful trader is marathon, not a sprint.

Thank you for joining me this season. I look forward to delving deeper into practical trading strategies and psychological aspects in season three. Don't forget to check out the resources mentioned, and join us at our Skool community for ongoing support and learning.

Here’s to a successful 2025, and I’ll talk to you soon in the next season of the "Day Trading for Beginners" podcast.

Books:

The Obstacle is the Way - Amazon

The Zen Trader - Amazon



Trading Psychology: Our main topic today revolves around two significant concepts in trading psychology that I've encountered through my readings: "The Obstacle Is the Way" by Ryan Holiday, and "The Zen Trader." Both books offer profound insights into facing challenges not just as barriers but as opportunities for growth and mastery.


The Stoic Philosophy in Trading: The idea that "The Obstacle Is the Way," draws from stoic philosophy, suggesting that what we often see as impediments to our success are actually the paths we need to take. Applied to trading, this means transforming trading challenges into opportunities for developing discipline, patience, and strategic mastery.


Zen Approach to Trading: Alongside stoicism, we explore the Zen approach to trading, which emphasizes introspection and the calm acceptance of market conditions. This method helps in managing our responses to market volatility and maintaining discipline in our trading practices.


Practical Trading Examples: In my own trading, I've identified specific obstacles such as impatience and overallocation. By acknowledging these challenges, I've begun to see them as areas for growth. Addressing these issues head-on helps in refining my trading strategies and improving my overall decision-making process.


Introspection and Growth: I emphasize the importance of introspection in trading—understanding one's emotions, triggers, and habits is crucial for long-term success. Journaling trades and reflecting on trading decisions can significantly enhance one’s strategic approach.


Conclusion: As we wrap up this episode, I reiterate that the true path to trading mastery involves understanding and leveraging one's personal trading obstacles. By adopting a Zen-like mindset and embracing stoic principles, traders can navigate the markets more effectively.

Key Trading Rules and Common Mistakes: Trading rules are foundational, yet adhering to them consistently is a struggle many traders face, myself included. Emotional trading, such as reacting impulsively to market changes or doubling down after losses, often leads traders astray. This is why starting with paper trading is vital—it allows you to experience these pressures without the financial fallout.

Essential Trading Rules:

  1. Stick to Your Strategy: Discipline is what separates successful traders from those who fail. It’s about executing your strategy mechanically, without letting emotions get in the way.
  2. Never Chase Prices: Always let the price come to you. Engaging in FOMO leads to entering trades at suboptimal times.
  3. Limit Position Size: Never allocate more than 10% of your portfolio to a single trade. Adjust your investment based on the volatility and your confidence in the trade.
  4. Buy at Support and Sell at Resistance: Avoid trading in uncertain ranges. Clear support and resistance levels offer better probability for successful trades.
  5. Embrace Discomfort: Buying at support levels, especially during dips, can feel counterintuitive and uncomfortable, but it's often where the best opportunities lie.


Implementing Rules and Handling Mistakes: Sticking to these rules is challenging, especially under real market conditions where emotional trading can lead to rash decisions. On Halloween, I was reminded of this when I attempted to buy at what I believed were support levels, only to see the market continue to fall. This experience underscored the importance of not only setting rules but rigidly following them to avoid common pitfalls like overtrading and emotional reactions.


Conclusion: In trading, the technical skills required to analyze the market are crucial, but the ability to maintain a disciplined mindset is equally important. Through paper trading, I've been able to practice and refine my approach without financial risk, preparing me for real-world trading where stakes are higher.

Market Symmetry Strategy: The core of this strategy revolves around market symmetry, recognizing patterns that repeat over time. Key components include:

  • Entry Points: Buy at support levels or after a backtest of a breakout.
  • Trading Philosophy: Focuses on buying during pullbacks to support levels, utilizing patterns to guide trading decisions without emotional interference.


Tools and Indicators: To implement this strategy effectively, I use several technical tools:

  • Ichimoku Clouds: Provides a visual representation of support and resistance.
  • Fibonacci Retracements: Helps identify potential reversal points.
  • Gann Charts: Used to observe market symmetry and predict future price movements.
  • Market Structure Analysis: Understanding overall bullish or bearish trends to make informed trading decisions.


Learning from a Pro: I've been learning this strategy from a professional trader known as The Great Mattsby, whose insights on market symmetry have been invaluable. For those interested, I've included links to his resources and Patreon in this write up.


Practical Application: Practicing this strategy in my paper trading account has been immensely beneficial. It's one thing to study a strategy, but applying it practically offers a whole new level of understanding and skill development.


Next Steps: In the upcoming podcast episodes, I'll share my experiences applying these strategies, focusing on the rules I've followed and the common mistakes encountered during live trading sessions.
