Hello everyone!
I am an advanced trader, with many years of experience (about 15 years - 10 living exclusively from this)
I am going to give you some tips that you must know:
There are going to be many people who tell you that trade is easy, that with only crossiing a line with another one you will win a lot of money.... and that´s not true. No, Sir, reality is far away from that. Many people who start arrive here with the hope that someone "gives them" a free method, they watch youtube videos thinking that this will give them the "strategy" and in a few days they realize that it does not work for them - they lose money - and then They go looking for a new one ... and so on. YES, IT´S TRUE YOU EARN IN TRADING, A LOT. BUT THINK: for a few to win (10% + any BROKER) many others must lose (90% people). YOU MUST HAVE A MONEY MANAGMENT FORMULA ( you can email me) People study so many years to live on this, not because they are dumb, but to know what they do, when, and have absolute effectiveness. It´s very easy to get lost here: do not disperse, jumping from one to another strategy WILL NEVER give you money, it will only waste your time and make you nervous when trading. PEOPLE WHO CHANGE THEIR METHOD CONSTANTLY : LOOOOSE ALWAYS. If you have the knowledge to develop it, take your time and do it. Always try it first on DEMO for at least 2 weeks! If not: search to buy a solid strategy (no you tube videos pleassse ! Avoid losing money! ) This is like any business, it requires some capital to start (capital = money in the broker + solid made /purchased strategy) If you are lost: I RECOMMEND YOU NOT TO WASTE TIME IN YOUTUBE, JOIN PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCE AND IF YOU ARE GOING TO BUY A METHOD ... PLEASE !!!! DO NOT BUY 10 BAD AND CHEAP METHODS, SAVE MONEY AND BUY ONLY 1 BUT EXCLUSIVE AND MUST ALLWAYS HAVE SUPPORT !!!!! Do not buy Signals! They never keep up with constant profits! One week will win and the next will lose. Nothing that does not depend absolutely on you will give you the money you are looking for. And if you do not have a strategy (made or purchased) do not even try PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE: DO NOT USE REAL MONEY! AT LEAST 2 WEEK DEMO FREE HELP HERE!!!!! IF YOU FOLLOW MY ADVICE YOU WILL BE PART OF THAT 10% WINNER, email me.
Have a nice trading day

Hi folks,
I will be posting my stock setups that I will be taking from 1:30p to 4p EST M-F. My trading is heavily influenced by Thalestrader, who has left a treasure trove of knowledge here at TL. My stock setups will target gapped stocks (S&P 500 constituents priced over $20) that consolidate and continue in the direction of the gap in the afternoon. Entries will include 123s and pullbacks to the 5 min 21 EMA. Please note I am currently on demo mode.
I believe the keys to success in trading are really just a few simple things:
Embracing the probabilistic mindset, which includes taking every valid setup regardless of how I feel about the outcome and not changing strategy based on recent results. Cutting losers quick and letting winners run. Unconditional self love and acceptance. This is probably the most important thing and the ONLY secret there is. By being ok with making mistakes, being wrong, taking losers, giving self money, one can finally learn to trade without fear. This is probably where most people take the most time to learn (10 years for me). Here we go. Blue line denotes entry, red line are my stops adjusted to as close to real time as possible.
Today: -41c, +13c, +0
Best,
J

Date: 4th February 2025. The British Pound Remains Resilient Amid USD Strength! This week, the Great British Pound is one of the best-performing currencies against the US Dollar. The US Dollar saw strong gains during Monday’s Asian session but was unable to maintain momentum due to Trump pausing tariffs on Canada and Mexico for 30 days. Why is the GBP performing better than the Euro and other currencies? Why Is The British Pound Holding Strong Against The Dollar? The British Pound is strengthening due to President Trump's favourable stance toward the UK. Economists advise the UK is still at risk of tariffs in the next 4-years, but are not likely to be imminent. President Trump has announced tariffs on China, Mexico and Canada. Tariffs on Mexico and Canada have been postponed but stated Tariffs on the EU are almost certain. Therefore, the GBP has benefited from being left out of President Trump’s blacklist for now. Therefore, the GBP’s bearish price movement is weaker than that seen amongst other currency pairs. The GBP index this week is trading 0.22% lower but is still performing better than other currencies. The worst-performing currency of the past week is the Euro and the JPY is the best-performing along with the GBP. Economists advise the GBP may be able to benefit from global tariffs being put on partners as long as the US does not impose tariffs on the UK. In addition to this, the price movement of the Pound will also depend on monetary policy. The Bank of England's meeting is scheduled for Thursday at 14:00 (GMT+2). The regulator is expected to lower the interest rate by 25 basis points to 4.50%. This decision is driven by inflation concerns linked to the US Republican administration's trade policies. As a result, the GBP is also gaining support from the BoE, which remains cautious about reducing rates too quickly. In December, consumer prices rose 2.5% year-on-year, below analysts' expectations, nearing the 2.0% target. Meanwhile, the services CPI dropped sharply from 5.0% to 4.4%. However, rising energy costs could drive inflation higher. Additionally, UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves' decision to raise employers' National Insurance contributions, along with minimum wage indexation, has increased labour costs. This could, in turn, impact household spending. Why Did the US Dollar Lose Momentum? The gains seen during Monday’s Asian Session were in response to tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China. However, tariffs on Mexico and Canada have been put on hold as both nations have said they are willing to provide 10,000 soldiers at their borders to stop drug trafficking and immigration. As the pause was announced, the US Dollar started to retreat as traders took advantage of the higher price to cash in their profits. Experts now point out that the tariff increases will impact half of all imports. Reducing reliance on external suppliers would require doubling domestic production, an unfeasible goal in the short term, potentially leading to a significant rise in consumer prices. As a result, Federal Reserve officials may be compelled to maintain the current policy for an extended period. Depending on inflation, the Fed may even consider tightening the policy if inflation rises. Against this backdrop, analysts have lowered their expectations for two interest rate cuts this year to 54.0%, according to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) FedWatch Tool. President Trump acknowledged the potential negative effects of his actions but expressed confidence that no drastic consequences would occur. GBPUSD - Forecasts and Technical Analysis! The fundamental outlook for the UK is not likely to change this week, but for the US Dollar, the latest developments will likely change on a daily basis. Particularly, investors will be focusing on further comments on Tariffs, earnings data and this week’s employment data. If earnings data from Alphabet and Amazon are weaker than expectations and trigger a lower risk appetite, the US Dollar as a safe haven asset may increase in value. Investors will also monitor this week’s JOLTS Job Openings, ADP Employment Change, Salary Growth and NFP Employment Change. If the employment data again reads higher than the current expectations, the Federal Reserve will likely be less tempted to cut interest rates any time soon. Consequently, the GBPUSD may fall as the BoE simultaneously cuts interest rates for the first time in 2025. If the price falls below 1.23777, the exchange rate will form a breakout and drop below most moving averages on the 2-hour chart. In addition to this, with a bearish momentum of 0.32%, the decline is also likely to bring the RSI below the 50.00 level. If this materialises, the price may witness a bearish signal pointing towards further declines. Key Takeaways: The US Dollar loses momentum after Trump puts tariffs on Canada and Mexico on hold. Tariffs in the UK are not likely in the near future but remain at risk for the next 4-years. The EU is likely to see tariffs imposed upon them. The Bank of England is likely to cut 0.25% basis points on Thursday. Analysts have lowered their expectations for two interest rate cuts this year to 54.0%. If the GBPUSD drops below 1.23777, it will trigger a breakout and prompt a bearish signal. Always trade with strict risk management.
