Market Psychology and Trading Philosophy
  • 📈 Buying Lojack stock at 14 years old and making $5,000 gave me my “needle in the arm moment” and hooked me on the stock market.
  • 📚 “My goals are to help people make money, to educate them, and to help them avoid losing money.”
  • 💰 Make the trade your own, don’t do it because I say it’s a good idea, make it because you agree with it, or you don’t agree with it.
  • 📈 The market rallies before the Federal Reserve starts cutting rates because the market is always trading on forward expectations.
  • 📈 Discovering one’s own strategy, system, and time frame that fits into their lifestyle is crucial for successful trading.
