90% of traders dont fail because they're stupid. No, 90% of traders fail because they size up so fast relative to their knowledge and dispensable income, that they blow up before they have a chance to make all the mistakes necessary to become a profitable consistent trader.

Ive obsessed over this stock shit for years, and all those years of research, tracking, observing and trading have shown me that there are 5 undeniable and timeless truths about traders (smart money vs dumb money).
Here are the top 5 facts, use those to sharpen your trading:

Dont quit. Trading is 1 of the few exceptions to the sunk cost fallacy. if u already poured a ton of $ & time into this journey, then u may be closer to the finish line than u think. just identify what u're doing wrong (99% of the time it's probably dumb impulsive shit) & fix it.

Preventing people from buying (thus eliminating the demand side of the equation), yet allowing sell orders to still go through means the Firms started shorting the FUCK out of $GME $AMC ahead of the news, knowing there will be less demand to squeeze them out. That’s fucking DIRTY

Here's another reason why every trader should at LEAST understand how options work:
The most powerful people in the stock market (billionaires & >100M millionaires etc) are option sellers. They write calls & puts weekly/monthly & collect free premium. it's like dividends to them

🎯The most ACCURATE trade setups (high win rate) must be entered a little "too late" and exited a little "too early".
💵The most PROFITABLE trade setups (high reward to risk ratio) must be entered a little "too early" and exited a little "too late"

It takes time to develop an edge.
it takes time to master entries.
it takes time to master exits.
it takes time to find the strategy that matches your personality.
It takes time to undo your bad habits.
And most importantly, it takes time to master your cunty emotions.

That's why i'll never stop shoving risk management down ur throats. the "I blew up" cemetery is filled with far too many traders who would've been phenomenal at this game, but simply got ahead of themselves & blew up far before they reached their full potential.

I'll save u years of data tracking and experience. the best long setups are simply bear traps. Largecaps or lowfloats, doesnt matter. Look up my "you gon learn today" setup if u need a visual. I stop out (if short) & go balls deep long each time I see it.

Whenever someone is trigger shy and afraid to take GOOD setups, it's usually because
1) they're using too much size
2) they want to be right EVERY time
Trading is not about being right on EVERY trade. it's about taking several trades & letting the winners make up for the losers

The 1st step to improve your trading is to stop lying to yourself. You don't suck at trading because of bears/pumpers/ marketmakers etc. You stuck at trading because of:
Shit psychology /mindset
Shit setups (stock selection)
Shit exits
Shit sizing
Shit entries

The power of quality over quantity never fails to amaze me. As some of u kno, ive been working on a little experiment lately (less time in front of screens, more time with family/friends, working out, hobbies etc). I 100% believed that my profits decrease during this experiment

Each time a stock makes a big move on "unexpected" news, i always check option activity to see if someone knew ahead of time (illegal inside trading). And hello footprints.. We're just gonna assume this guy who bought $TWTR calls 10% out of the money was just "lucky" right lol

Unless u're a scalper, taking profits too early is 1 of the MOST underrated reasons why traders fail. Broker reports have confirmed this. Traders dont have issues finding winning trades.. they have issues staying in the trade long enough for the risk/reward to make fucking sense

🔥Ambition - " i fucking WANT this... BAD"
🙋♂️Humility -"i dont know everything.. so i'll continue to learn daily"

It's like going to a 4 year college and spending all your tuition money on year 1.
Like Michael Jordan said "i never lost a game, i just ran out of time".
In the same way most traders who fail didnt really "fail". they just ran out of money.

One of the most common questions I get is "I feel like they're coming for my stops".
Sounds like a conspiracy theory, but fun fact, it's not.
The market is DESIGNED to stop people out. You will always struggle with entries, exits and risk management until u understand this.

I have to constantly remind folks that with a good RR, 50% winrate is more than enough
-40 trades a month (2x/day)
-50% winrate
-not counting fees
Risking $100/trade= $2K/month
risking $500/trade= $10K/month
risking $1K/trade=$20K/ month.
It's all about R/R

Sustainable Trading in a nutshell:
STOP looking for strategies that work ALL the time. They dont exist. in fact there's only 1 and it's called inside trading, and it's fucking illegal.
Instead focus on strategies that work MOST of the time, and simply trade em with a decent RR.

Most ppl enter the trade first then place their stop a certain amount away from their entry. "i'll enter here and just risk X cents". That's wrong. Your stop loss should ALWAYS be protected by a key supply (if short) or demand (if long) area. That's the whole point of a stop loss

How do I avoid getting wicked out? The number of times I set my stop and it gets taken is very depressing.

⌚ 2- Doomed to fail
Dumb money are only patient when they're losing. In short, they take profits on winners WAY too fast, but hold on to losers WAY too long. small winners, HUGE losers.
Smart money spend little time on losing trades but milk the FUCK out of winning trades.

Then,once u FINALLY beat all those steps, welcome to breakeven land. yes, u did all that just to STOP losing money. So pls stop giving ppl the illusion that they're gonna enter this dojo, learn a few tricks & boom it's lambo time. This journey will drain the fuck outta u. trustme

So if u're trading a stock that has options, STUDY its option chain. See where most of retail is positioned, & know that the smart money is literally on the opposite side. By expiration, they get the last laugh 90% of the time. This is a FAT edge once u get this

I wish I could retweet this 100 times. People look at me crazy when I tell them that. EXITS are the holy grail of trading. Entries are crucial, BUT are of SECOND importance to exits. A GOOD exit can bail u out of a bad entry. but a bad exit can NEVER bail u out of a good entry.
Exits are everything in trading.
Once you enter, why is meaningless.

The reason many struggle with cutting losses is b/c they put FAR too much emphasis on INDIVIDUAL trades. Listen bro, ONE chest workout is not gonna get u swole, & ONE trade is not going to make u Jesse Livermore. Think longterm. It's just another trade. Move on.

if u're a beginner your only concern should be identifying what YOUR A+ setups are.

Honestly 1 of the reasons I want to spend less time in front of screens is simple. There is NO END to this game. Uwill NEVER be satisfied no matter how much 💵u make. And the more 💵u make, the LESS that 💵means to u, so u endup increasing size endlessly just to get the same rush

Traders have a hard time taking losses b/c they've been brainwashed into thinking that losses & red days are bad. That's like tellin a Poker player that folding is bad. A well executed stopout is NOT a loss. It is preservation of mental and $$ capital

5 Build a trading checklist using the best of those factors

Yup. just master 1 setup at a time. Else you'll hop from strategy to strategy, setup to setup, indicator to indicator, just to come back full circle and realize you're trash at all. Laser vision is key. Most of y'all dont "suck" at trading. you're just all over the goddamn place
@team3dstocks
I'm starting to be able to tell if a setup isn't quite right just by glancing, but I still don't know why until I draw all over it.
Improvement is slow and frustrating but noticing it feels good. :) I get the "just trade 1 setup" advice now.

Even 6 months salary is not enough. People severely underestimate how long it can take to even breakeven, let alone reach profitability. They also overestimate how fast they'll be able to learn to control their impulses & fix their discipline issues. This journey can take years

Impulsive trades are the silent account killers. I remember 1 day, years ago, I organized all my trades on excel & did a running total of all my losses from impulsive trades alone. The number nearly gave me AIDS. u'd be surprised at how much money traders lose to impulsive trades

What beginners and the uninitiated focus on:
-entries
-indicators
-PNL
what veterans and those who've been fondled by the market's unforgiving nature focus on:
-exits
-risk management
-psychology & emotion management
The boring stuff, is where success lies.

The hardest part about trading isn’t the “ACTUAL Trading” itself, it’s the mastery of emotions and shedding of bad habits which takes time and repetition.

Dumb money are (contrary to popular belief) knowledgeable enough to make money, they just dont have the discipline to STICK to what they KNOW works.

I have too many tweets on this. AVOID large losses at all costs. Large losses dont just set u back financially, they set u back MENTALLY. one single large loss not only erases days of hardwork, but it also fucks up ur psyche so much that it ALSO hurts your FUTURE trades.

The same qualities that helped u in other competitive areas of ur life (sports, gaming), will wreck u in trading. Pride, toughness, stubbornness, aggression. In sports, they are an asset. In trading, a liability. U must learn to put on a different persona when u sit at that desk.

The simplest strategy in the world, is simply trading against trapped traders and bagholders. Period.
Short pops when bulls are trapped (break of trend/support with massive volume), or buy dips when bears are fucked (break of key resistance with massive vol).

Again, basic amygdala shit.
when u're up a TINY bit, it says "take profits now or u'll lose it all".
when u're down it says "cancel that stop loss, move it a bit lower/higher. the stock might reverse"
The result: small wins, large losses.
Learn to tell it to shut the fuck up

When I say "let ur winners run", it doesnt mean short & close ur eyes like a fucking dumb ass. It simply means let the stock pay u UNTIL u see at LEAST 2-3 exit signals (trendbreak, L2/Tape soaking near key support etc).

📊5- Indicators & timeframes
Dumb 💵 use small timeframes & endless indicators
Smart 💵 use large timeframes & few indicators (the big picture)
Dumb 💵 focus on price 1st. Smart 💵 focus on volume & liquidity 1st, price 2nd. b/c they know that price cannot move without volume

1st u'll fail bc u have no clue wtf u're doing. Then u'll fail b/c u'll find a full of shit guru. then u'll fail b/c u dont have a proven strategy. then u'll fail b/c u keep fuckin up ur entries. then u'll fail b/c u keep fucking up ur exits. then u'll fail bc ur a stubborn prick

$SNES 92% ADF score, so great potential fader.
Not a vwap boulevard setup so remember the top 3 rules:
1 wait for pm shorts to get squeezed out
2 wait for pm bulls to load up long (intraday bagholders)
3 drop Mjolnir 🔨 on high volume trendbreak & set ur stops

The smart money, those who consistently profit off the 90%, have SPECIFIC, DEFINED strategies. That means they trade the SAME way EVERY time. What this means 4 u, is that if u study ENOUGH moves, u WILL find their footprints. The only price u have to pay, is a few sleepless night

It blows my mind how lucky some of u new traders are. GOOD Info was NOT this easy to come by years ago when I started. My learning curve wouldve been a lot less brutal & I wouldve spent a lot less time hopping from DM to DM & sucking endless dick if it was. Take advantage of this

The most destructive state a trader can ever be in is what i call the "fuck it" state. that's when u are so fed up, so frustrated, so drained, that u just say "fuck it" to all ur rules & just start doing stubborn shit. im sure many can relate. avoid that state at all costs.

The ultimate goal of a trader is to hunt & capture big moves.
Over 90% of big moves are preceded by:
1) Big Consolidation (leads to big breakouts)
2) Big Overextension (leads to big reversals)
Use this to narrow down ur focus & finetune ur setups.

Another reminder for beginners on how important risk/reward is when growing your small account.
-50% win rate (coin flip)
-on a $2,000 account
-risking $100 max loss (1R) to make $200 (2:1 RR)
-Averaging 2 Option trades per day
And ur account doubles to ~$4,000 in just a month

because this industry is full of scumbag gurus who dont know SHIT about trading but fleece beginners left & right by seducing them with pussy PNLs that only look impressive to rookies & with carefully selected charts full of arrows on pussy size that only impress the uninitiated.

You are not alone. You are describing 99% of traders I ever met, myself included a few years ago. I sincerely thought I was missing chromosomes at one point. I knew what to do, and what not to do, but kept breaking rules anyway. What helped me change my cuntish ways (apart from..

anyway this thread is too long but u can tell how much this shit pisses me off. I see it year after year & it never seems to end. STOP falling for the flashy BS. the ONLY thing u should focus on as a trader is MINIMIZING damage 1st, maximizing profit 2nd. PERIOD

So they manipulate the stock NOT in the direction THEY want, but in the direction where retail will lose the most 💵by expiration. they make their plan based on YOUR positioning. Once u get this, SO much will start to make sense. Retail is playing checkers. They're playing chess.

In terms of efficiency, it is my personal opinion that EVERYONE should LEARN how to trade. Everyone. No other skill (once mastered) can return as much capital, in as little time, and with as much freedom (no boss) & comfort (pajamas) than trading. But dont trade to be wealthy,

Discipline tips:
sleep 8hr/d
dont trade fasted
exercise daily
stop eating like shit
plan ur stops/targets (exits) BEFORE ur entries
hide ur PNL
Staring at PNL & seeing a number u DONT want to see is literally the fastest way to summon Full Retard mode.

This is the volume analysis thread I was referring to weeks ago. It is very long, but should answer 90% of the questions about Volume Analysis, the ADF volume forecast, and why supply/demand imbalance is ALL your thesis should revolve around, long or short.
#BearTipOfTheDay
Taking a quick break from charting/data tracking to answer some questions.
Last time i did a poll, the top vote was for Volume analysis & how i use it in my trading. This is impossible to answer in a few tweets, bc volume is SO crucial to my trading, but ill try 2 keep it short

Lick my nuts. We warn newbies year after year to stop chasing pumps/alerts, to stop chasing overextended trash at HOD, to stop blindly shorting shit with zero rules etc, and when they ignore the advice and get sodomized we're supposed to feel bad for them? kick rocks

You knew this was coming
$GME calls went BERSERK (especially the $45 & $54 calls)
The $54C went from $0.01 to $21.55 (+215,400%)
To put that in perspective:
a $1.00 bet wouldve turned into $2,155
$10 into $21,550
$100 into $215,500
$1000 into $2,155,000

I dont wanna sound repetitive..
i dont wanna sound cliched..
But seriously guys..
this..
is..
the absolute, best job in the whole fucking world!!
Sometimes I even wonder "how the fuck is trading legal???"
u ever sat back on ur trading chair, paused, and wondered how lucky we are to be able to do this shit? thousands of years ago we had to hunt dangerous mammoths and shit for a living. now we just gotta sit and wait for the proper dumbass to give us half his trading account at 930

That's why ppl oversize. They focus on "how much can I make if im right" instead of "how much can I lose without going on fucking tilt & ruining my week if im wrong".
Never size based on maximum gain. size up so that the loss, if wrong, wont derail u mentally

@team3dstocks
The "too much size" advice goes over a lot of heads. It's so instinctive to think "if this is about to go from $4 to $9, why wouldn't I want to buy as much of it as possible?"
Goes hand in hand with "have to make up for that big loser yesterday. This will get it all back"
