Quote of the day:
On the road to greatness, the reward is the journey.
If you want to become a champion, embrace process and commit to unconditional persistence.
I don't know what the market does today or tomorrow. I've never known.
What works is tracking relative strength, positioning bit by bit, then adding size when conviction is there. It's never that I know what happens next. That's not even part of the equation when I'm reading market action. It comes through systems, process, and progressive exposure.
Interpret, don't predict. Take it day by day.
Nobody knows what happens in the markets. But we can place probabilities and size accordingly based on what we see and the information we gather. There's never certainty of A or B. There are probabilities of A and B. So don't get into the game of thinking you have to know what happens with absolute conviction in order to make money.
Most of the traders I've met over the years just take it day by day, week by week, month by month, and let their systems drive the outcome instead of pretending to know.
@AmilcarCollante Buena observacion camarada, a precios de hoy, ese ITCRM a que nivel nominal de dolar nos llevaria? Obviamente encima del techo de la banda, pero zona 1800 por ej?
The constant urge to call a top every other day usually comes from following too many voices, not a lack of skill.
Use this platform as a source of knowledge, not a checklist to follow blindly.
Take what makes sense, leave what doesn’t.
Build a system that’s time-tested and personal to you.
Because when someone with influence says something that contradicts your process — your rules are what will protect you. Not someone else’s opinion. Not a headline. Not a tweet.
You can’t trade off someone else’s conviction. You can’t consistently win following someone else’s edge.
This game is about ownership.
Every trade — win or lose — should be yours. Backed by your own logic.
The second you start outsourcing decision-making — “I sold because X said this” or “I shorted all time highs because my mentor seemed convincing” — you’re already behind.
Leaders don’t follow. Leaders lead even if it’s just themselves. This is trading. You’re either a sheep or a lion.
Traders who find consistent success aren’t just lucky or always right.
They’ve built a solid foundation through repetition — executing their edge over and over again.
Strong habits.
Clear routines.
That’s what allows them to show up and perform.
Last night, @OliverKell_ shared this with me — felt like the need of the hour.
In a world full of noise, it’s a solid reminder: cut the distractions, focus up, and lock in.
