NASDAQ shorts played to perfection. HOW DO YOU BUY YOUR TIME BACK?!?!?! Welp I’m happy you asked 😬….. My work day is simple. Sit at my laptop at 9:15am From 9:15am to 9:25am, I have a pretty strong bias and understanding of what I am looking for in preparation to trade on the day. My bias could change, it all depends on the markets. The rest is waiting for the market to come to me so that I can trade what I see, not what I want. In the waiting game you have to be patient. The goal here is to get the best risk to reward, avoid as much drawdown as possible, keep calm and stay flexible in your expectations. Today’s trade setup developed and by 10:30am, I had an entry signal. From entry to target the market dropped 110 pts, hit my target on the nose and by 10:50am, workday is Done! 🥶 This is the power of trading and having this skillset. Imagine going to work at 9:15am and being done by 10:50am. 😌 How much more productive with your time, could you be? I always risk a 1:2 risk to reward so for every $1, I am looking to make $2. Use your imagination and substitute the number you would risk on a trade, and I am sure, your mind will began turning. I will do you one better. imagine if all you risked was $500 to make $1000. And out of 5 trading days, you only traded 3 of those days and were able to make $3000. In total you only worked 3-4hrs in the week to make $3k. Congratulations, you’ve just bought your time back. Here’s 3 steps to becoming a profitable trader. 1. GET A MENTOR 2. GET A MENTOR 3. GET A MENTOR It’s that simple 😬😬😬. You need someone who has a proven system that works, who can teach you the psychology behind the markets. Without this, it’s a long hill to climb. By yourself you can go far, but together we can go farther.

Reading is fundamental, but what if you have no clue of what you’re reading? 🤨 Sooooo Nasdaq presented some choppy price action this morning. Within our trade models that we love to trade. We got a beautiful buy signal in confluence with overall price action. I know this is Chinese to some but stay with me, I’ll explain 😌😬… A trade model is equivalent to a play within a teams playbook, you understand the overall strategy, based on the flow of the game, a play develops that you’ve been practicing over and over and so, you run the play. Easy right? Well one of our trade setups developed but…. The play wasn’t successful, doesn’t mean we were completely wrong, maybe the market just wasn’t ready yet. That’s where risk management comes in. So an initial loss was taken (pic #1 & 2)..But because we have the skill to read the charts and we aren’t stuck to just one side of the market. After the loss was taken the markets then read something different. Same trade model within the playbook, but reversed (pic #3 & 4) This allowed us to confidently take the opposite side of the market. Some days these things will happen, and some days you have to just be ok with being wrong. 😑 But this is why reading the charts is key to success as a trader, also risk management. Without both, you end up married to a losing trade and there’s nothing worst than a married partner who is giving you a headache 🤕 and causing you financial distress. I think we all can agree 👍 So Nasdaq was a little emotional this morning. Nothing a little understanding couldn’t fix and because of which, No loss was taken and in fact, we walked away in profit, peaceful and back to being a happy family. 😬 I love you Nasdaq, you’re my baby on some days! 🤪 3 KEYS TO READING A CHART! 1. Understand Candlestick Anatomy (they tell the story of price) 2. Understand Market structure (they are the candles that creat the trends in which you are looking to take advantage of) 3. GET A MENTOR 🥶 (you can’t learn to read if a teacher hasn’t taught you)

Today we were eyeing ATH’s also known as All Time High’s on Nasty Nas, let’s just say, this play was nastyyyyyyyyy. Risked 32 pts to make 219 pts is insane but just grateful for the W. If you want to learn how I took this trade setup. Contact me and I’ll show you how. 😬
