When I started trading, I thought I didn’t need a plan. I’d jump into trades, figuring I’d make it work as I went along. For a while, I got lucky. But soon, luck ran out. The Day I Realized I Needed a Plan It hit me after a week of back-to-back losses. Every win I’d made was wiped out, and I didn’t understand why. I wasn’t following any rules—I was just hoping each trade would work out. And when it didn’t, I felt completely lost. What Trading Without a Plan Did to Me -My results were inconsistent: Some days were great, but most weren’t. -I had no risk management: I’d risk too much on one trade and too little on another. -I felt out of control: Without a plan, I was relying on gut feelings, and they failed me. How I Fixed It I decided to start over. I created a simple plan, back-tested it, and promised to stick to it. I set rules for how much I’d risk and reminded myself that small, consistent wins would add up over time. What I Learned -A plan gives you control and consistency. -Risk management is key—it protects your account when trades don’t go your way. -Trading without a plan isn’t trading. It’s gambling. If you’re struggling with inconsistency or a lack of direction, send me a DM—I’ve been there and can help. I also have a webinar this Sunday to help you build a strategy and stay consistent.

The US economy in December added the most jobs since March and the unemployment rate unexpectedly fell, capping a surprisingly strong year and supporting the case for a pause in Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts. Nonfarm payrolls increased 256,000, exceeding all but one forecast of economists. The unemployment rate fell to 4.1%, while average hourly earnings rose 0.3% from November. YIELDS are rising, and traders are fully pricing in the first rate cut in October. The 10-year yield may aim for the 5% level, similar to the March 2023 movement. However, let's not forget that at that time the interest rate was 5.5%, and there were no expectations for combating 9% inflation. Currently, inflation is even below 3%, and concerns that the US will impose new sanctions or that tax cuts will create a new wave of inflation are purely speculative fears, not facts, which have created an emotional backdrop in the markets. On the contrary, 10, 20, and 30-year bonds are becoming even more attractive for investors. And don't forget, pre-election promises often do not turn into reality.
The Dow is down over 600 points, the Nasdaq has dropped more than 300, and the SOX is off by 135. Yet, TSM is just one day off its all-time highs and positive on the day. Someone big is stepping in to scoop up shares here, and I’m buying right alongside them. When a stock shows strength like this in the face of a market sell-off, it’s a signal worth paying attention to. What’s your take? Let’s talk in the comments!
Copper is showing signs of exhaustion after recent bullish momentum, prompting a short setup on the 15-minute timeframe.

AMC stock has captivated the market with its dramatic price movements and retail-driven interest. Earlier, we projected a bottom at $4, predicting a robust rise to $18 and potentially $40. While AMC reached $5.50, this was later identified as an X-wave within a complex WXYXZ corrective pattern based on Elliott Wave Theory. Our renewed analysis now suggests that AMC may form a definitive bottom around $3.70. This correction phase has been a challenging journey, but it aligns with a textbook double-three pattern, signaling the groundwork for an explosive rally. From $3.70, we foresee AMC embarking on a significant upward trajectory, with an initial target of $18, followed by a climb to $40. The potential for even greater heights remains firmly on the table, especially as investor sentiment and technical indicators align. Why This Could Be the Turning Point The significance of the $3.70 level cannot be overstated—it represents the culmination of an exhaustive corrective phase. This area serves as a psychological and technical pivot, where the bullish scenario becomes increasingly viable. Key market dynamics, including trading volume, correlation with meme stocks, and broader market sentiment, support the case for a strong upward move. As AMC approaches this critical juncture, we remain optimistic about its ability to break free from the prolonged corrective pattern. Investors should keep a close eye on this stock, as the potential for significant gains looms large.
Last trade recap- Last trade was a dime trade. We smoked tp so super happy about that but lets move on I still learned from it. Todays trade I'm bullish on BTC to hit recent high on the 4hr and here's why. recently we swept 4hr lows with no displacement which is good for bullish. on the 15m we see a bearish fair value gap that get disrespected. The only thing bothering me is there is a 5m fair bearish fair value gap but i entered off a 15m bullish fair value gap so I think Ill be ok. I My final tp is a 15:1 rr ratio trade which would be my biggest trade ever taken. But because its such a a stretch. I have partial takes profits up there as well. Let me know what you guys think?
