Leaving corporate world and Covid disruption “forced” me to burn the bridges. Living my passion for swing trading. Learn, suffer, enjoy, suffer, learn again.

Bill Ackman on getting through a stressful & negative period in your life…
I come back to this video so often. Any time I am in a bad spot. Worth the 2 minutes for sure.
Ray Dalio turned a startup in his apartment into a $150 Billion empire.
Most people spend a lifetime trying to understand the market.
Dalio just condensed 75 years of investing wisdom into 39 minutes.

Episodic Pivots and SIP's really is all you need to make it in trading.
Since cutting out everything else, my results have skyrocketed, mental capital have been preserved and account churn is at a minimum.
My only regret is that I didn't focus solely on this from the beginning. I believe this setup is the fastes and easiest way to become profitable for new traders. You can always expand with additional setups later on if you like.
And the best part, it's repeatable, quantifiable and the setups literary come to you in one single morning scan.
Thanks @PradeepBonde and @Qullamaggie for the introduction to this money maker!
Market Wizard Linda Raschke's 12 Technical Trading Rules:
1. Buy the first pullback after a new high. Sell the first rally after a new low.
2. Afternoon strength or weakness should have follow through the next day.
3. The best trading reversals occur in the morning, not the afternoon.
4. The larger the market gaps, the greater the odds of continuation and a trend.
5. The way the market trades around the previous day’s high or low is a good indicator of the market’s technical strength or weakness.
6. The previous day’s high and low are two very important “pivot” points, for this was the definitive point where buyers or sellers came in the day before. Look for the market to either test and reverse off these points, or push through and show signs of continuation.
7. The last hour often tells the truth about how strong a trend truly is. “Smart” money shows their hand in the last hour, continuing to mark positions in their favor. As long as a market is having consecutive strong closes, look for up-trend to continue. The up trend is most likely to end when there is a morning rally first, followed by a weak close.
8. High volume on the close implies continuity the next morning in the direction of the last half-hour. In a strongly trending market, look for resumption of the trend in the last hour.
9. The first hour’s range establishes the framework for the rest of the trading day.
10. A greater percentage of the day’s range occurs in the first hour then was the case in the past, and thus it has become increasingly important to trade aggressively if there are early signs of a strong trend for the day.
11. There are four basic principles of price behavior which have held up over time. Confidence that a type of price action is a true principle is what allows a trader to develop a systematic approach.
The following four principles can be modeled and quantified and hold true for all time frames, all markets. The majority of patterns or systems that have a demonstrable edge are based on one of these four enduring principles of price behavior.
Charles Dow was one of the first to touch on them in his writings. Principle
One: A Trend Has a Higher Probability of Continuation than Reversal Principle
Two: Momentum Precedes Price Principle
Three: Trends End in a Climax Principle
Four: The Market Alternates between Range Expansion and Range Contraction!
12. In the world of money, which is a world shaped by human behavior, nobody has the foggiest notion of what will happen in the future. Mark that word – Nobody!
Thus the successful trader does not base moves on what supposedly will happen but reacts instead to what does happen.
The market keeps surprising on the upside. I’m leaning on a 1990s bull market playbook to stay in sync.
Tomorrow (Monday) at 5pm I’m hosting a live Zoom — sharing my views, walking through leading stocks, and answering questions. Hope you can make it.

@Trader_mcaruso Agree. My concern is that ppi under an increasing tariffs scenario anticipates cpi. Pressure en costs are set by higher costs of imported goods. That could means lower margins (if companies absorb increase) or lower revenues. Will see
