Hey hey, what’s up my friend! Ever had someone ask, "How are you?" and your brain crashed like Windows 95? Same here. I used to give answers like… “Great.” “Fine.” “Not bad.” And then, crickets. The conversation dies faster than a crypto crash. So, here’s something I learned that solves this problem. (I can’t remember who I learned it from because of my goldfish memory.) Here’s how it works… You want to give multiple answers on topics you are interested in talking about. This gives the person options to choose what to expand on. So if someone were to ask me, how are you? I would say… “I’ve been busy with the kids. It’s the school holidays and I’m trying to teach them how to sell stuff so I can retire 20 years earlier. The markets have been volatile since Trump took office and hopefully, things settle down in the coming weeks or I’ll have more sleepless nights. Also, been hitting the gym regularly as I just started on this new workout program.” Do you see what I did there? I just laid out 3 different conversation paths the person can choose from (parenting, financial markets, and fitness). The best part? I chose these topics! Now, back to trading… Understanding whether a market is ranging or trending can make or break your trading strategy. These two conditions have different behaviours, and if you’re taking the wrong approach in the wrong environment, even a good setup can quickly fall apart. In this guide, you’ll discover how to spot the difference between range-bound and trending markets—and how to trade each one effectively. Don't focus on trading psychology. Work on finding an edge. Once you have it, your psychology takes care of itself. And if you struggle to find an edge, then grab a copy of Trading Systems That Work. You’ll learn 3 proven trading systems that give you an edge in the markets (and it’s backed by data). Why do you lose money with technical analysis Technical analysis consists of tools like chart patterns, volume, indicators, price action, etc. But why do some traders find success with it while the majority fail? I’ll explain why and how you can avoid it. And don’t forget… “No matter how confident you are, you must always respect risk. Or else, you’re just one trade from losing it all.” Cheers, Rayner “how-are-you” Teo |
