☀️ TODAY’S REVIEW:READ BELOW

A Recap of Today’s Price Action & Setups:

OVERVIEW:

TRADE OF THE WEEK: Hold That Runner!

Once again, we had at least one Battle Plan that ran 100+ points. 

This week – it was a short. 

We traded it live on Zoom together with multiple traders capturing 30+ points. 

This could have been a multi-day hold. 

Not every account can hold over night, but if you can… learning to hold a runner with our 3-Contract System can be very very profitable. 

Did I KNOW this would run 250-points?

Heck no. 

I captured 40 points and called it the day. Additionally, I only entered with 1 contract – I treat ALL shorts small and with a scalpers mentality. A short has to behave perfectly for me to ‘stay short’ or add to my winning trade. 

See the image/illustration below.

EXPECTED RANGE:

WOW… 221 Points!!!!

And… expect more WILD out-of-no-where candles. 

Always trade with a stop and embrace the concept that being FLAT is a TRADE. You simply trade your time and watch, learn, and grow as a trader. Nothing wrong with mentally trading wild price action and journaling. Even professional athletes mentally rehearse their part of the symphony, proper blocking techniques, performance aircraft pilots also mentally rehearse – see the video below.

There are some days – it is a dress rehearsal!

This is a VERY cool video I think of often. (Military aviation nut here!)

SECOND LADDERS:

 for those traders who demand that the chart forces them to trade, will wait for a second ladder, and that was an account-saving rule this week. You don’t have to be the first one counter; if you do, you better be very greedy and very quick to get out of the trade and never ever ever make things worse. 

A week like this past week reveals holes in the boat. 

Where are the holes in your boat?

Did you add to a loser?

Did you move your stop loss. Losing more than your original plan?

Did you add to a loser and move your stop loss? A double whammy?

Or… did you stay true to your trade plan?

Your P&L does not determine whether you had a great week… Your adherence to the discipline laid out in your trade plan does!

CAUTION:

A word of caution about abandoning your trade plan… or worse, thinking you need to overhaul it because you didn’t take many trades or didn’t have a monster week. This was a highly unusual week. Step back and see that for yourself. 

One slow week does not make your system broken. One wild week does not make you a genius. The market will humble you fast if you start chasing results instead of trusting process. 

I will remain steadfast and true to my system. And if all I make is 10 points at a time… I’m good with that. Consistency beats heroics every single time.
