@SJosephBurns Risk 1% of account per unit(N)
A “unit” = position sized so a 1N move = 1% loss?

@AsymTrading Agreed he is one of the greatest of our time , Richard Dennis must be close back in the 80s started with very little and amassed a fortune with a very mechanical system

@NoLimitGains The 'bankers Fakeout?' = mass liquidity sweep from smart money before sending the price further north after taking out all the weak retail stops ,just makes me even more bullish on these commods 🤑

William O'Neil's studies show finding winning stocks is easier when you filter by group strength first.

[Mark Minervini @markminervini]

The only data the market truly embraces as bullish is benign data—not too hot, not too cold. Historically, bull markets sustain themselves during moderate, stable economic periods—what we call a Goldilocks Economy.

Strong data → signals no rate cuts.
Weak data → revives recession fears.
Mild, steady data → the “just right” scenario that keeps the market climbing.

In short, the best data for the market is the kind that doesn’t move the needle too far in either direction. https://t.co/JXzFFTmMtn

@PatrickWalker56 Hi Pat can you please define 'leader' is it based on market cap, performance something else?

[Ameet Rai @AmeetRai]

Compounding doesn’t come from catching the exact top or bottom of a move.

That’s not the game.

It comes from consistent inputs. Clear buy rules. Clear sell rules. And a repeatable process that allows you to capture the middle 70–80% of a trend over and over again.

The top will always feel bad, because you give something back.

But what matters more is that your Equity Curve (EC) makes a higher low than the last Market Cycle. That you preserve capital when the trend ends. And that you don’t try to be perfect.

Most traders I see are obsessed with picking the perfect day to enter or exit. The truth is…that last 5-10% always messes with your head.

It's noisy. It's emotional.
It never feels good.

So build for the middle. Focus on the meat of the move.
That's where the money is.

That’s what compounds!

People are buying this stock blindly off influencers recomendations

This will not age well.

The Market Cycle count is now at +44 days, marking the longest rally since July 2024. The S&P 500 and the $QQQ are closing at all-time highs, fully recovering from the earlier tariff-induced correction. Once again, the recovery was V-shaped, just like most sharp reversals in strong bull phases.

For the past few weeks, a lot of traders have been calling for a pullback or some form of consolidation. But the market has continued to grind higher, ignoring those expectations. No pullback, no meaningful rest — just a steady rally. That tells you everything you need to know.

Historically, when a cycle this strong finally slows down, it tends to happen in one of two ways. First, a news-driven event that triggers a sudden shift in sentiment. Second, a parabolic blow-off in a popular, news-sensitive sector — that kind of euphoria distorts risk-reward and usually leads to some kind of reset. But we haven’t seen either of those yet.

This rally has room. We’ve had market cycles last 55 to 65 days before, and this one looks like one of the strongest since mid-2024. So instead of anticipating the end or getting paranoid about what could go wrong, focus on what’s actually happening — and what price is telling you.

We’re still seeing rising 10-day, 21-day, and 50-day moving averages. They’re acting as support. Leaders are holding up. The trend is intact. The last 44 days have been some of the best since 2020, and the broader market has been cooperative for nearly two years now.

Keep it simple. Follow your system. Monitor your own positions. Don’t trade off opinions — especially from people who aren’t trading your account.

Price is the only opinion that matters, and right now, price is heading higher.

Stay process-driven. Stay focused. Let price lead.

You are your own worst enemy. You waste precious time dreaming of the future instead of engaging in the present. Since nothing seems urgent to you, you are only half involved in what you do. The only way to change is through action and outside pressure.
