Forget religion for a second.
Our entire universe started from the Big Bang.
That is the ultimate catalyst in the universe that sparked the creation of EVERYTHING.
Stocks need a catalyst too whether earnings reports, news, partnerships, industry regulation changes, FDA approvals etc.
Trade BIG BANG stocks.
I am faster than you because I operate on principles.
While you waste time with useless details, I am already moving forward.
I fail and try again. This is my data.
Principle: TRY AS FAST AS POSSIBLE
While you read about antioxidants and amino acids, I eat meat and vegetables.
While you study glycemic index and insulin resistance, I eat once a day.
While you read about eccentric and concentric exercises and count your little reps, I train every single day to failure.
While you stare at Bitcoin charts like a slave, I buy the dip.
Etc.
When you operate on principles, you can smoke cigars, drink from plastic bottles, and eat McDonald’s without a single fuck given.
You also save endless TIME.
You don’t need to understand the engineering of a car to drive it fast.
Life is exactly the same.
Stop being a slave to information.
Operate on basic principles with ruthless tenacity.
This is how you win.

"You only need one bull market to get rich, and change your financial future. You only need one. Learn the setups, learn how stocks move, learn what moves stocks, and memorize the patterns."

The greatest piece of wisdom for me and the simplest, yet hardest to fully follow is:
Identify your circle of control. Focus on what you can control, what is up to you and what you can change. Forget the rest.

Your goal is to trade your largest when you're trading your best and trade smallest when you're trading your worst."

Macro (bond yields, credit spreads, liquidity) and valuations are for context in my system.
I use charts, price/vol action and moving averages for timing.

We are living in a world of chaos.
Layoffs.
AI.
Uncertainty.
Industries changing overnight.
You can’t control the economy.
You can’t control companies.
You can’t control the future.
But you can control one thing.
Your skills.
In times like this, the safest investment is not a job title or a promise. It’s what you know how to do. Skills give you options. Skills give you confidence. Skills give you leverage.
That’s why I always say this.
In a world of chaos, build yourself skills.
Everything else is temporary.
Everyone keeps asking, “What happens to day trading with algos and AI?”
Here’s my honest answer, trading has always been against algorithms. Wall Street was algorithmic long before ChatGPT.
Day trading is a pattern recognition game.
Just like a video game, you are playing against machines designed to beat you. Your job is simple, recognize the pattern, press the right key, at the right time.
That’s it.
AI and algos do not kill traders. They add liquidity, speed, and volatility, which is exactly where opportunity lives.
The edge humans have is adaptation.
Markets change, we change. Pandemic trading did not exist, we adapted and built new strategies that worked.
Our brain is the most powerful cognitive system ever created. If the market evolves, we evolve faster.
That’s why I’m not afraid of AI algo trading. I’m excited for it.
And we prove it every single day, live, with price action, market structure, and tools built for pattern recognition.
Day trading is not dying. It’s evolving, and the best traders evolve with it.
Day trading isn't luck.
For me, an engineer turned full-time trader, it was a system built from near-total loss.
After a layoff, I lost $30k in the market. Fast.
I realized: the market transfers money from the emotional to the disciplined.
I rebuilt by treating it like engineering:
Profit = Discipline × Risk Management × Action
Success comes from the daily grind, not a single win.
Start small. Stay disciplined. Let your process work.
Trading is a high-income career that rewards consistency, discipline and perseverance.
A BBT member Peter R. emailed me to share that he is close to having his first 5-figure month, after 2 years of trading.
While most traders gave up in their first 3 months and started blaming the gurus, the strategies, and the markets.
I trade the same strategy, Opening Range Breakout, every single day for 10+ years. I have experienced massive losses, I have learned to accept a red day, and I have gotten used to 5-figure daily profits.
But I haven’t changed my trade book. I’ve only refined it over time, and I can tell you that there’s no short cut.
- Learn a strategy or trade book THOROUGHLY.
- Know all the rules that you must follow in your trade book.
- Do your premarket prep every morning. No premarket planning = no trades allowed.
- Find yourself at least one mentor that you can speak to and at least one accountability partner.
When your process works and makes you a profitable trader, repeat the same process everyday.

Life only has 3 categories. Cause and effect. Purpose and intent. Action and reaction. When you master all three realms you begin Tateism
- Emory Andrew Tate Jr
Once you catch a higher time frame swing perfectly as a scalper, there is no reason to keep that lower time frame positions as short as usual (on your average RR size)
means, to have a dynamic point of view and therefore a Dynamic Style, spotting, bending and creating new possible ways to trade. which can better your overall performance if done correctly.
the trade yesterday night started as a joke, wanted to try something new entering more but smaller positions etc, expected nothing. Was just to experiment and learn.
during the day I observed that I catched a perfect swing, instead of closing the trade for a 10 - 50% gain, I let them run and kept stacking positions in each pullback and breakout. Ending in a 900X a fucking 90.000% gain trade.
Turned out to be the biggest setup in my 3 years of trading. Incredible wow.
Right timing, right trading style and right level of emotional detachment.
The floating profits were insane and it was mentally very tough to let them run
🏆🏆
how does the deadly 7 sins connect to trading?
Lemme explain...
The first is pride.
You think you are so much better than everyone else
Humble yourself or the markets will..
The second is greed.
You're ungrateful and always want more
dont let numbers control you, take your profits and be happy.
The third is lust.
You always look at people in the wrong way.
Your mind has to be sharp like a fresh blade
Gooning or living in lust weakens the mind,
hit the gym and practise semen retention.
Number four is envy.
feeling upset or jealous when someone has something you want.
Be proud for them clap and celebrate other peoples W's one day it's your turn.
number five gluttony.
taking more than you need, especially with food, drinking or smoking and not caring for your body.
Knowing your limits knowing when to stop is very important.
six is wrath.
letting your anger take over and hurting yourself or others with words or actions.
Control your emotions.
took an L?
that's okay that doesn't mean you bad at it. what you do after taking L's is what really matters.
that's why so many people call it a gamble because they can't control their emotions.
The last one is sloth.
being lazy with your responsibilities and not giving time to God or important things.
Being lazy has killed so many peoples dreams even tho they had potential but they were to lazy to take the action.
if you pray to god, patiently waiting for your turn while doing the work and believing in yourself one day it will all pay off.
Success starts with mindset.
But which mindset shapes success?
Think about how you approach challenges.
What lens do you look through?
• Scarcity
• Abundance
• Growth
Each one drives very different choices.
And those choices create very different outcomes.
I promise y’all everyone who is hustling, once you understand there is barely anyone who can help you to get successful.
success is a personality trait.
It’s hardwork combined with most importantly smart work.
On the web all you read is hardwork here hardwork there, do you not see that rarely someone gets successful?
It’s because most people ignore smartwork.
What do I mean with smartwork?
Clarity of mind, to know why you should do XYZ instead of ABC.
To start reflecting, analyzing your mental errors, your bad habits, bad mental habits, reaction and initiation.
There are way more “unseen” things you have to master before things manifest into the physical world we all can see.
Stay focused, think more and act more process oriented.
