Good morning, say it with me "First Friday of Q4. I start this quarter the way I want to end it. Clean execution. Proper sizing. No shortcuts. The way I trade to start this quarter sets the tone for the next three months." Finish strong.

Good morning fam Q4 begins. The final push. If your year has been strong, protect it. If it's been rough, there's still time. But the approach doesn't change either way: disciplined, selective, process-driven. The outcome follows the behavior. Good luck.

End of Q3 Personally, the price action this month especially the last couple weeks has been the most challenging for me in recent memory. If you are finding it challenging, I can promise you are certainly not alone. The market goes in waves. Whether it’s sectors/groups/themes or style of trading, usually throughout the course of any year you experience periods where trading feels easy/effortless and others where it’s hard to make a dollar. Sept certainly felt like the latter to me. How am I adjusting?.. Being more selective in trading as well as sizing down a lot until I find more traction. When you have traded for a few years and you’re still alive, you learn to trust your instincts For me, I place more importance to how I’m doing and the traction I’m getting from the market than where the market is or or what sector is breaking out or how others may be doing. At the end of the day you have to back yourself, especially when conditions are challenging for you For those who are finding it difficult, let me remind you.. “that too shall pass”. Easy times give way to hard times, hard times give way to easy times. Keep at it, the goal is to stay in the game. I shared a similar message with the community earlier today as well. Onward to Q4!

Good morning Last day of Q3. End of quarter flows can sometimes create random and volatile moves. If the tape is moving for no obvious reason, it might be rebalancing. Sometimes the best trade on these days is no trade. Stay sharp.

Good morning, say it with me "I will not force a result to make my week look a certain way. My process continues regardless of what date the calendar shows. I trade through time boundaries. I don't trade for them."

Hard day, could have done a couple things a bit differently but mostly due to a tricky environment at the moment On the defensive the rest of the week, let’s see when this market provides a clear direction

Amazon dot com’s stock price has now fallen 95% from its high on December 19, 1999. In just 21 months, this once-promising tech darling has fallen in the dustbin with all the other tech bubble busts.

Good morning Last week of Q3. The focus is to finish strong but if you had a tough quarter, now is not the time to be a hero and try to make it back in the final few days. Relax and slowly prepare yourself for the next quarter. Let's have a sharp week.

Copper names $SCCO $FCX continue to look interesting and on the verge of a higher timeframe breakout FCX backtesting the recent highs and holding Watching these 2 for a swing trade into Q4

$BE very nice undercut and reclaim of the bottom of the recent base (265) this past week Bounced perfectly off the 20d SMA on the gap down on Thu, reclaimed 265 into the close, and broke out to new highs on Friday If we see continuation we should see 310-320 on this soon

One of the most intellectually rewarding phases of the market are the “turning points” These are points that rhyme with the past market conditions I’ve traded and where I can measure my own growth - not just by my P&L, but by how my decisions, reactions, and emotional control compare to prior cycles. These moments tend to put most participants offsides, and that’s exactly why they’re so revealing If you study your emotions, your actions, and the instincts that flare up during these shifts, you start to recognize patterns.. subtle signals you completely missed in earlier years. Think of it as technical analysis of your own mind. There are patterns. You respond in a certain way in a certain tape And so with enough cycles, you realize that the real separation between traders isn’t created during strong, obvious trends. Anyone can participate in momentum. The real difference shows up at the inflection points - when the trend is ending, when conditions are dynamic, when uncertainty is highest, and when clarity is nowhere to be found The beauty of being a longterm student of the markets is that these moments repeat over and over in some shape or form. You begin to recognize echoes of past cycles, almost like familiar emotional fingerprints. And because turning points don’t happen often, each one becomes a yardstick - an honest piece of feedback from the market to you, about how far you’ve come and how much further you can go There is no end to learning or improvement. You can always get better. You just need the right reasons to drive you.
