Momentum Swing Trader | 2023 US Investing Championship - Top Performer I

Answering some of my most asked questions: Do I trade an 8-9 figure account? I do not. As many of you know, I am still 26. I did not come from wealth as well. It took me 5 years of progress, often volatile, to shift into swing trading. I made the final final transition by late…

It's funny that I experience somewhat the same thing whenever I post about potentially shorting overextended stocks... $SMCI months ago,#China names and $TIGR a few weeks ago, $DJT a few days ago. Not exactly "trolling," but lighthearted arguments. History repeats itself. The…

Lots of people trolled me when I bought $PTON Now that its up 100% since I entered 2 weeks ago maybe you want to revisit the thought process I shared here when I bought it.

I’m writing an article about the 'struggles' people face in trading. What are 2-3 personal challenges you think are holding you back? Comment below

I prefer swing trading over position trading because the faster portfolio turnover allows asymmetry to be a regular part of my strategy, rather than an occasional outcome due to the lower frequency of trades. I strongly believe in the power of outlier trades and have built my…

why swing trade and not position trade? apologies if answered before...

$DJT fulfilled my parabolic criteria. I may give it a try today and/or tomorrow (short). I wouldn’t be surprised though, if it shoots up to $70–$80 as we get closer to the 5th of November, before we see any exhaustion.

"How can I achieve consistency in my trading?" This is the question I got from my last free call out of the 50, yesterday. Here is my answer : The term "consistency" has been used so often that, due to overuse, we sometimes forget what it truly means. Consistency is not just…

You get the point. Once you dive deep into your foundation, these findings extend significantly, and the Ratio- Of -Surprise shrinks considerably. The Ratio of Surprise has a correlation with the rise of fight-or-flight behavior which leads to many trading problems.

Regarding expectancy, trading long only breakouts during bad market breadth has been bad for my equity curve. Either stop trading during these periods or switch to shorting.

Thanks for the 15,000 followers, guys! I don't know why you value the "teachings" of a 27 year old trader, but I am grateful! I have a question for you because I've been baffling over this for a while: Right now, I am posting less frequently and commenting on things I think are…

I started reducing my trading struggles when I incorporated an "expectancy" of outcomes into my trading system. "Non-expectancy" is the root of most trading problems, including revenge trading, FOMO, psychological swings, and many more. It’s the same in life. We are most scared…

A couple of nuances regarding Parabolic Shorts: 1. Catching the "top" is one of the hardest things to do in the market, so you must approach this setup carefully. The criteria for this setup should be strict enough for these occurrences to be somewhat "rare." For me, I might…

$🐯🇨🇳 fulfiled my parabolic short criteria. On my focus list today.

For those wondering, I am referring to $TIGR lol

We often say that our trading foundation is structured around the Setups we use. However, it's common for us to experience "style drift" in our early years of trading. Each setup reflects how a trader perceives the market and its mechanisms. If you use a Setup that someone else…

Difference Between Textbook Setup Entries & Dynamic-Theme Setup Entries : When you study dynamic setups which are often ''Theme'' related you will see that sometimes it is hard to enter. Sometimes they give 1 perfect entry or no perfect entry at all. When something falls into…

In the past 3 months, I’ve spoken with nearly 50 people after announcing some free calls. It has been incredibly fulfilling to share my insights and learn about the backstories and journeys of so many traders! One thing I’ve found in common is that many people are so close to…

That is an interesting topic. Here's is my take on this⬇️ Trading psychology is often used as the number one thing to blame for failure in trading, and that distracts people from looking at the elephant in the room, which is investigating deeply how flawless their trading system…

The system vs psychology discussion is so interesting. Some argue that psychology is not important at all and having a system is what is really lacking. Others say having a system isn’t end all be all and psychology plays a big role. What are your thoughts on this?

I've been playing around lately with a model I asked my developer to create, called TACTIV (Tactical Assessment of Conditions and Trading Insights for Viability). It performs extreme stress testing of trading stats through thousands of simulations, using various combinations of…

$LUNR I was really close to selling my position yesterday. I added a bit more today. If this turns out to be my best trade for 2024, just like it was for 2023, I'll upload a video of me doing the 'moonwalk'.

When the market enters a "non-fertile" period, I usually focus on buying Bio-related stocks and, in general, stocks that demonstrate inverse correlation with the indices. $SMMT, $TVTX-2nd day, $TERN. Also tried $PLTR with smaller size. We'll see how these play out.

Feeling incredibly proud of my father, who just had his first painting exhibition in his hometown! He's been painting since he was 16, and seeing his lifelong passion come to life is truly inspiring. 🎨
