I was supposed to process the video from our live class last week on Thursday or Friday but as always, life in Rio de Janeiro gets in the way. I wanted to share today’s live class specifically because it was a very uneventful. By uneventful I mean, there were not hundreds of opportunities that netted 1 billion points for us. I actually prefer to teach on these kinds of days because it forces everyone to focus on discipline rather than making money. […]
I would like to formally introduce Paul to you, he has a unique story and came to me with the same story that most of us go through in the industry. I spent a lot of time and money and I am getting zero results. Sadly, I have even been through it, which is one of the reasons why I started this site I wanted to share his story because he was very hesitant to start with me. He did what any […]
Just finished up a great live class today and realized just how hard it is to try and day trade and teach at the same time. Its a very careful balance and one of the ways that I devised my currently risk management structure when I day trade eminis on my own. One of the themes from today was identifying momentum and learning when to be aggressive. It is that whole idea of using a Congressive day trading system where you adapt to the momentum of […]
Today was one of those days that was exceptional for trading, not only because we could have made done well, but also because there were very important lessons which each and every single movement. There were so many opportunities to be able to take a graceful exit and learning the art of being able to exit a trade early is one of the things that is vital to trading. I have been gone from the United States for so long and have […]
I would like to let everyone know that this is a TradeStation Chart and not a NinjaTrader chart to actually show the live market for today. If you don’t know, NinjaTrader has a replay feature which allows you replay the data.. there is not replay feature in Tradestation… I was requested to post this so feel free to verify the data and time of the post 🙂 7.17am CST – In trade looking for more upside due to strength And The Exit….

I wanted to post this video earlier but I was ravaging through the country of Peru. There is only one more country left to travel to in South America which is Ecuador. I remember meeting Mahad like it was yesterday, it was my very first night in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, and I wanted to party like it was 1999. He showed me around the city and introduced me to some Ethiopian customs like chewing chat (click here if you […]
Today was another phenomenal day in the market for us and I wanted to try something a little different for the last few days by sharing student charts. I just ended the class blitz where I hosted a serious of classes for everyone in the training program and it couldn’t have ended on a better note. Tomorrow is contract rollover day which means that the contracts change. If you want a better understanding of that means check out the day trading eminis where […]
Welcome to the first official recap of June! Today I want to try something a little bit different and share the results of the live class that we had on June 5th. I also plan on sharing the results from our June 6th class. I do things a little differently when it comes to training because I have had the unfortunate circumstance of being sold into the industry and I have also had the fortunate opportunity of being inside the industry. Since […]
My emini day trading and traveling around the world has brought me to the last country I am going to live in South America, Brazil. There is more than one goal at hand when I arrived in Brazil, it’s not only to experience the culture & people (ahem women) but also to see the possibility of opening a day trading center here. The middle class in Brazil is exploding and the Brazilian market will soon be as big as the current market […]
I have been day trading eminis for almost 10 years now and with the recent questions I have been getting I wonder if people really know my actual age or when I actually started day trading. I have seen an enormous shift in this industry with one day trading company spawning various methods and strategies, both good and bad. I started day trading at what would be considered the dawn of a new age when it comes to day trading eminis, click here to learn about […]
