0 Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify Lack of patience is probably one of the greatest trader-killers out there. If that grabs your attention, it should. In my experience, when a trader starts to develop technical skill and starts to potentially become profitable, it is the lack of patience that ends their career. Lack of patience is related closely to FOMO and they are both concepts that you need to handle if you truly want to be a disciplined trader. Without discipline you will lose. Understand that first you need the technical skill, but oftentimes traders with the technical skill don’t have the discipline to…

Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify Don’t let the title fool you, this has great information. If you are going to learn how to trade, there are many pitfalls. There are enough natural pitfalls out there, like the fact that trading is counter-intuitive. But there are ‘man-made’ pitfalls as well. Most everything you view, read, or hear will be incorrect. Some through ignorance, some through design.

Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify This podcast is short and sweet and to the point. The more complete title should be, “the absolute way you must view the market to make money, which would shock the average person, even the average person in the market”. It will in a sense, summarize some thoughts of prior podcasts, and lead to a conclusion that you must hear, if you really want to understand how to trade/invest properly.

Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify I don’t want to give anything away but some of you who have been listening for a while may be thinking that there is a little sarcasm in the title of this podcast. This is going to cover several important topics including a couple of favorite lessons from a book, those cookie-cutter patterns, the language of charts, and pictures of learning. A good rule to follow is that nothing is as it seems when it comes to trading.

Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify In almost anything you read or listen to about trading, you will likely read or hear that trade management is important. This is not accurate. Trade management is more than important. It is critical and will eventually determine your fate as a trader/investor. Traders that can read charts but cannot put the money in the bank are a dime a dozen. It takes some skill to read a chart, but many traders then get stuck in “breakevensville” for a long, long time. To me, management is way more involved than it is to most. It is not only how…
Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify There is a section called “Look for the Pitfalls That Stop Most” that is toward the end of the free course that I do for everybody called, Introduction to Mastering Technical Analysis. It’s a half-day course that is packed with some great information. I mention that because, as a trader/investor, today’s topic is one of the key pitfalls that often make it difficult for anyone new. Or in many cases, even more experienced traders struggle because of today’s topic. I see it all the time. Today’s podcast is going to cover some of the downfalls of listening to the…
Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify I think this has become one of my favorite small topics to pick on, as I probably mention one or two of these when talking about other topics. I also did an event with a similar title. It’s an important topic because so many people go off looking for some training and there are an awful lot of things you read and see that vary from being at the least, not useful, and at the most, being downright wrong. You may be surprised at some of the “useful” comments and sayings that I feel are just dead wrong. Another…
Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify Is the market a random walk? Well, you have to listen to the podcast to get that answer. The answer may surprise you a little bit, but the answer also has what I consider to be one of the greatest concepts you need to understand to be a successful trader or investor. I’m going to talk about my 97% rule and how I stumbled across it many years ago. We will also discuss the market being a zero-sum game (at any given moment), and how that helps answer the question.

Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify When a trader says that a trade was “risky”, what exactly does that mean? I hate to say it but in the absence of any other information it means that the trader is very novice. Risk can have a lot of meanings, and I want to review each of those as they are critically important to your trading. Maybe it’s just semantics, but saying any trade is risky is very difficult to define. The true definition of a trade being risky, is not anywhere near how most traders would define it. Without understanding all the implications of risk, you…
Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify This particular podcast is actually based on an article that I wrote, well, quite a long time ago. But it was one of those that received many comments for a long time, and I felt it helped a lot of people. It discusses stages most traders go through, and where they often get stuck. Obviously, many of the comments in this podcast are concepts that I say frequently, but a lot comes together in this podcast and this will likely hit home with a lot of newer or struggling traders.

Subscribe: iTunes / Spotify This is a big one to me because it gets at the very heart of what we do as traders/investors and also addresses what is perhaps one of the biggest mistakes made by traders across the board. This has to do with selecting trades on simple ordinary stocks to make money from moves that occur virtually every day. Unfortunately, new traders are drawn into trying to find stocks that make the top gainers or top losers list, or perhaps drawn into trading crypto because of the huge volatility. You do not need big moves to make big money and…
