Classic Trend Following Overnight Trade

Chart is a classic example of change in trend, famously espoused by the Master of the Wall Street, Trader Vic (Victor Sperandeo).

Yearend trading thoughts

Cannot trade the market every day, only fools do

Trading is within you, not on following others

Books/seminars helps trading but cannot help making actual good trades to make money - only 'you' can do it

Trading can do and learn in a day, but making money consistently takes years to learn

Success in trading is easy to proliferate in social media, 'profitable' traders are in the background

Traders that cannot make money proliferates in the social media selling playbooks, live trading subscription, discords, affiliates, and the likes

In trading the enemy is yourself, not Mr Market

Trading is all about reading the minds of the market, it's not about vwap/rsi/ema's/sr levels/macd/profiles/structures/whatever there in the technicals 

Trading is easy but making money is like picking a needle from a haystack

Easy to lose money in trading, it's like pouring water on sand

It is impossible to buy at the bottom and sell at the top

When you learn trading for years and still cannot make money, you will wander and search it's all about psychology - then you will discover later it's not

Sync and dance yourself how Mr Market 'dances', since he dances obnoxiously

Trading will make your head spin that you will look at yourself in the mirror how terrible you are

Trading is not about how old you are, how young you are - it's about how you understand and do it the way you understand and execute to make it work 

There is no other opportunity in the whole planet that you can make money in the market (at your own pace and time) without dealing to anyone - only trading can offer that

You only deal with 'yourself' - if you know yourself😊

If you hate dealing with 'crazy' people - trading is there for you

That's why I love doing trades!

trade IN- BETWEEN works!

Today's market was a bit brutal early before the open, was down -$2kplus, but through 'observed' expert witness about the market behavior for quite a while, persisted through the open and was able to recover.

Trade -IN-BETWEEN' works!

Observed also that 'W' pattern on smaller time frame - sign of a bullish/Santa rally pattern!

trading IN-BETWEEN

As market observer and experienced lots of unimaginable trading setup failures and positive outcomes, one thing that stand the test of times is that market timing coupled with patience watching the market price levels and executing a trade IN-BETWEEN is the best trade setup to make a good outcome like the chart below...

What Is a Small Edge?

 A small edge is any measurable statistical tilt in your favor. 

 • A 52% win rate with a 1.5:1 reward/risk ratio.

 • A pattern that yields +0.2% on average after a certain setup. 

 • A volatility filter that reduces drawdowns by 8%. 

 That doesn’t sound like much. But apply that edge over thousands of trades, and now you’re looking at a serious return. 

 The market is a game of inches—not miles. And those inches are hidden in the cracks most traders ignore. 

 The tragedy is that most people sabotage themselves because they want to feel smart, not be profitable. 

 They dismiss a +0.2% signal because it doesn’t make them feel like a genius. Or they can’t sit through a drawdown on a system that’s right 55% of the time.
