[The truth about support and resistance nobody tells you]
If you read most trading textbooks, they’ll tell you that the more times support and resistance are tested, the stronger they become.
But that’s not true, because the more times support and resistance are tested within a short period, the weaker they become.
Here’s why…
Support exists because there’s potential buying pressure around a certain price level.
(This buying pressure could be institutional orders, retail orders, smart money, etc.)
So what happens when the price re-tests support multiple times?
Well, these orders start to fill up.
Eventually, when all these orders are filled up, there’s no one left to buy and that’s when support breaks.
This means the more times support and resistance is tested (especially within a short period), the weaker it becomes.
Why a short period?
Because it’s unlikely new orders will be “replenished” so quickly.
And that’s why the more times support and resistance are tested within a short period, the weaker they become.
When it comes to stock trading, you want to buy stocks that are in an uptrend (just like how you want to chase the hottest chick in school). Why?
Because these are the proven stocks that are likely to continue higher. It could be due to positive sentiments, a well-run company, earnings, etc.
And the good news is, the US stock market is in an uptrend now.
But there are thousands of stocks, how do you know which to buy? When should you enter a trade? And what if the stock goes against you?
Well, in this upcoming webinar, I’ll share with you a simple stock trading system that has generated 3225% over the last 22 years. And yes, you’ll learn when exactly to buy & sell a stock—even if you have no experience.

[If you want a consistent income, don’t be a trader]
Here’s the deal:
Many traders get into trading because they want to generate another source of income.
That’s because they want to quit their 9 to 6 job and have the freedom to do the things you love.
Now, if that sounds like you then here’s a warning to you…
Trading is one of the worst ways to earn a regular source of income.
Why?
Because the markets are always changing!
A trading strategy that makes money this week might go into a drawdown the next.
Now, it doesn’t mean you can’t trade the strategy anymore but, it’ll take time for market conditions to revert to your favour—and it could take a few weeks or months.
This means you shouldn’t expect to make profits every single day, week or month.
You only take what the markets give, and nothing more.
It's easier to make $1k from your job than trading.
But it’s easier to make $1m from trading than your job.
That's the power of compounding.
[The ONE thing you must have in trading that nobody tells you]
This is one of the biggest trading myths which have fooled most traders…
“If you have a winning trading strategy, you can use it to make millions of dollars from the markets.”
That’s B.S.
I’ll explain…
Yes, you can have a winning strategy but, it doesn’t mean you can make millions of dollars.
Why?
Because the size of your account matters!
Let me give you an example…
Let’s say you have a trading strategy that makes 20% a year.
On a $1,000 account, that’s $200/year.
On a $10,000 account, that’s $2,000/year.
On a $1m account, that’s $200,000/year.
As you can see, your trading strategy is one part of the equation, the other equally important aspect is the size of your account.
And this is the same reason why hedge funds raise millions, if not billions of dollars—they need money to make money in trading.
There comes a point in trading where too much information hurts.
You must put what you know into practice, a plan, something concrete you can test, verify, and validate.
If you're not getting the results you want, take a step back and work with what you have—not add more.

[The hidden cost of copy trading that nobody tells you]
Copy trading is a business.
So, if you’re not being charged any upfront fee, then you’re paying more for the spread and overnight fees.
I’ll explain…
For most Forex brokers, the spread on EUR/USD is 1 pip. But on a copy trading platform, you might pay 2 to 3 pips more.
But don’t take my words for it because you can compare the spreads of a normal Forex broker with a copy trading platform and you’ll see the difference.
So, what’s the implication?
Two things.
#1: If you’re a trader being copied, then bear in mind your trading strategy won’t work as well because you’re paying more in spread (compared to a typical Forex broker).
#2: If you’re copying another trader, then it’s best to follow traders who trade infrequently so the spread doesn’t eat up a huge chunk of your profits.
Now, the spread isn’t your only cost because you still have to consider overnight fees (if you’re holding positions for longer than a day).
This fee is calculated by taking Libor + X%.
(Libor stands for inter-bank offered rate. It’s an interest rate that banks charge to other banks for borrowing the money.)
So, what is X?
Well, this is the mark up that’s determined by the copy trading platform and you’ll need to check with them for the exact amount.
The good news is, you don’t have to worry about calculating all these because the platform will likely do it for you—so do check it out before placing a trade.
Now, there are probably other fees to consider but the spread and overnight fees make up the chunk of it.
I wasted years trying to find a perfect trading system.
Then I realized it didn't exist.
Instead, it's about knowing your goals as a trader and then adopting the right system that fits with it.

Many traders think you need to take high risk for high returns.
Wrong!
You should risk small, let your edge play out, add capital, and compound your gains over time—that's how you make it BIG.
[Pullback stock trading tips]
When it comes to stock trading, it’s possible to have hundreds of stocks forming a pullback trading setup at the same time.
So the question is:
How do you know which stocks to buy and which to avoid?
Well, the secret is to focus on stocks which have increased the most in price over the last 12 months.
Why?
Because these are stocks likely to outperform the market (and it’s been proven in theory as well according to the paper Returns to Buying Winners and Selling Losers by Jegadeesh and Titman).
So, how do you apply this to your trading?
1. Rank stocks according to their rate of change (ROC) over the last 50-weeks—from the highest to the lowest
2. Look for a pullback trading setup on stocks with the highest ROC value. If there isn’t, then move to the next stock (with a lower ROC value)
3. The top 5 stocks with a valid pullback trading setup are the ones to focus on
Pro Tip:
You can use a platform like Thinkorswim to help you rank the stocks, and it’s free.
The government don't owe you anything.
The world don't owe you anything.
The rich don't owe you anything.
Nobody is here to save you.
The good news?
You don't need anybody because you already have all the resources at your disposal—the internet.
You can acquire almost anything skills you want if you put your mind to it
So go for it.
[My trading journey]
Here’s my learning curve as a trader:
I started with indicators, then price action trading.
And for a few years, I thought that’s all I needed because after all, the price is king and that’s all I needed to be a profitable trader.
But that hurts my growth because I tuned everything else out (and limited myself only to price action trading).
When I realized my folly, I quickly went back to being a student of the markets.
So I asked myself:
“What are other winning traders doing to profit from the markets?”
That’s when I got exposed to trend following, systems trading, mean reversion trading, etc.
The outcome?
Today, I trade multiple trading strategies across different markets—which results in a smoother equity curve of my portfolio.
So the lesson is this:
You might be a profitable trader but, it doesn’t mean your learning curve is over because you’re always a student of the market.
When you have some trading profits, don't upgrade your lifestyle too quickly.
Because when the losses come, they will be a liability to your finances, mindset, and performance.
