Hey trader, Wednesday morning, I took a textbook Bollinger Band breakout on the euro.  Every rule was followed…Every box was checked.  I lost $100 in under fifteen minutes. The euro spiked 20 pips and gave back all 20 within minutes. Gold did the same thing. So did the Nasdaq. So did the S&P 500. Four

When is a chart pattern NOT a chart pattern?  When it hasn’t been CONFIRMED! Far too many of us jump the gun, letting FOMO drive our decisions. The scary part is you probably do this without realizing it. That’s what I am to correct today. I want you to trade signals, not possibilities. During today’s

Hey trader, One of my favorite books of all time is The Count of Monte Cristo. I love the story so much that I even enjoy the 2002 film adaptation. I’ll be honest, though. The movie loses a bit of its magic for me because of what it cuts out. The changes Hollywood made trimmed

Hey trader,  There are two types of entry signals:  One fires when price hits a level. The other fires when price accelerates through a level with volume behind it.

Hey trader,  Most futures traders cap themselves at one position at a time. That feels safe… …but it also means watching profitable setups fire in other markets while you sit waiting for a single target. During my 10% Club session this morning, I ran four called trades across gold, the euro, and crude oil in

Hey Trader,  Gas prices are up 53% since January. The latest inflation report says prices are down. CPI data were wrong before the ink dried. That disconnect is already costing traders and consumers real money.  Yet, it’s an opportunity for traders to make money. Below is the actual inflation math the CPI is missing, followed

Hey trader,  I filled up my truck last week and noticed the price had jumped again. Most people see that higher number and feel defeated. They grumble, they pay, they drive away. I looked at the same number and saw a trade signal. On Thursday, crude oil broke through the $78 level I had been

Most traders pick a timeframe they like and apply it to everything they trade.  They scalp ETFs on a five-minute chart… …They hold futures positions for weeks using monthly levels…They wonder why the signals keep failing… The signals are not failing. The timeframe is wrong for the instrument. And today, I’m going to show you

Hello trader,  As many of you know, I like to bake.  I make multiple types of artisan breads, basic sandwich breads, and rolls.  It’s a fun hobby that our family and friends benefit from, since we can’t possibly eat everything we make.  Having been a baker for decades, you might think I have the process
