[Don’t trade based on other people’s opinions]

Today…

There’s a ton of information on Twitter, Facebook, trading forums, etc.

The problem is…

It doesn’t make you a better trade, far from it.

Here’s an example. Imagine…

Someone posts a chart on Tesla and explains why he is bullish on it.

Next, there are 100 thumbs up and a flood of comments agreeing with the analysis.

So you quickly buy the stock of Tesla hoping to make a quick profit out of it.

Now here comes the critical part…

What if the price of Tesla drops 30%?

Do you sell, hold, or buy even more?

You don’t know because you’re trading based on the opinion of someone else.

You might be wondering:

“Well, I’ll just ask the original poster for an update on Tesla.”

Then one of these will likely happen…

—He sold his position for a small profit and you didn’t know about it
—He sold his position for a small loss but you’re still holding the stock
—He doesn’t reply to you

Either way, you’re on the losing end.

Do you see what I mean?

So, never trade based on the opinions of others.

They won’t tell you how long they plan to hold the trade, when to cut loss, or when to take profit.

Instead, you must have your own trading system that tells you when exactly to buy or sell. This way, you’ll never be at the mercy of others again.

[Make it painful to not follow your trading plan]

Here’s the thing:

Just because you have a trading plan doesn’t mean you won’t have itchy fingers.

Because you might lack the discipline to follow your trading plan even though it’s good for you.

(Kind of like how you don’t eat enough vegetables even though you know it’s good for you.)

The solution?

Be accountable to someone. It could be your spouse, a friend, or someone you trust.

Let them know whenever you deviate from your trading plan, you’ll be penalized.

The penalty could be something like:

—$50 donation to your favourite charity
—Wash the toilets for a week
—Do 100 push-ups

You want to make sure the pain of not following your trading plan is greater than following it.

This way, the mind gravitates toward the least amount of pain which is to follow your trading plan.

This means your actions become consistent and you get consistent results.

[It sucks, but just let the price hit your stop loss]

Imagine:

You buy 1 standard lot of GBP/USD at 1.4300 and have a stop loss at 1.4250.

This means if the price drops to 1.4250, you will exit the trade for a loss of $500 (or 50 pips).

Now, this is fine if you allow your stop loss to do its job.

However, you might be thinking…

“I know the market is about to rebound.”

“I’ll look like an idiot if I were to sell right now and only to watch the market reverse higher.”

“Let me hold on to the trade for a while longer and sell at the next rally.”

And what happens next?

The market collapsed another 500 pips.

Eventually, the pain is too much to bear and you forced yourself to exit your position.

And because of your hesitation, a $500 loss amplified into $5,500.

So, the bottom line is this…

Honour your stop loss.

It’s there to protect your trading account even though it’ll make you look like a fool once in a while.

[If you’re a newbie trader, avoid this habit of averaging into losses]

Imagine:

You bought 1 lot of EUR/USD at 1.3000.

Shortly, the price dropped 50 pips and you’re down $500.

Now you’re thinking to yourself…

“I knew it, the market is out to get me again.”

“But wait… if I buy another 1 lot of EUR/USD, then I can quickly get out at breakeven if the price moves up 25 pips.”

“I’m a genius!”

So…

You buy another lot of EUR/USD at 1.2950.

Next thing you know, EUR/USD tanked 100 pips—which puts you at a loss of $3,500.

In other words…

If you had cut your loss from the start, it would have only been a loss of $500.

But because you gave in to your emotions and averaged into your losses, it grew into a $3,500 loss.

So the lesson is this:

If the market proves you wrong, get out of the trade.

Don’t average into your losers because it could snowball into something near impossible to recover from.

[Don’t use a fixed position size, do this instead…]

Most traders are fascinated with technical analysis, candlestick patterns, trading indicators, etc.

When you see “something” nice, you quickly hit the buy button without giving much thought to your position size—which is a big mistake.

Why?

Because without proper position sizing, your wins and losses are erratic.

Here’s an example:

Let’s say you buy 1 standard lot of EUR/USD with a stop loss of 20 pips.

How much could you lose?

Well, it’s a potential loss of $200 (20 x $10/pip).

Now, what if you have 100 pips stop loss?

It’s a potential loss of $1000 (100 x $10/pip).

You might be thinking:

“My stop loss in terms of pips will be the same.”

“This way, I can keep my losses constant on each trade.”

That is possible but…

What if you trade a different timeframe where it doesn’t make sense to use the same number of pips as your stop loss? (E.g. A 20 pips stop loss might work on the 5-minutes timeframe but not on the daily.)

Or what if you trade a different currency pair with a different pip value?

Do you see my point?

So the lesson is this…

The size of your losses should be the same for each trade.

But your position size should be adjusted according to the size of your stop loss.

A tighter stop loss allows you to increase your position size.

A wider stop loss requires a smaller position size.

[Do you really need both Stochastic indicator & RSI?]

Well, they are similar but different.

I’ll explain…

The stochastic indicator and RSI are similar because they are both momentum oscillators.

In other words, they measure momentum in the market and their values range between 0 and 100.

But how are they different?

Well, the calculations that go into the stochastic indicator and the RSI indicator are different.

However, they use the same concept which is to measure momentum.

Thus, you shouldn’t be surprised to see both stochastic indicator and RSI pointing in the same direction (albeit with different values).

So, the bottom line is this…

If you want to use a momentum indicator (like RSI or Stochastic), just pick one will do because they pretty much tell you the same thing.

[A stop loss order will save your trading account, here’s why…]

A stop loss order is a type of order that gets you out of a trade automatically.

It means that you don’t need to stare at your charts the whole day and try to scare your pants off as the price approaches your stop loss order.

Now…

I’m not going to lie to you…

It hurts taking a loss…

Even if it’s just a losing trade.

But how would you feel when your stop loss order got hit, and the price went against you even more?

Except…

You’re not there to take the hit.

You feel relieved, right?

Not only do you free up space on your portfolio early to look for better trading opportunities.

But you also prevented a huge potential loss.

Can you see why this is important?

That’s why you can think of a stop loss order as a “risk police” that prevents you from losing more money or having unexpected losses.

[Don’t demo trade for too long]

So, how long should you demo trade?

One month?

Four months?

One year?

The truth is that it depends…

If you’re a day trader, then you may want to consider demo trading for one month

If you’re a swing trader, however, then you may want to consider demo trading for three months

The concept is that the higher the frequency of your trades are, the less time you should do demo trading, and if the frequency of your trades is lower then it’s the opposite.

Remember…

Your goal in demo trading is not just to test whether your strategy works.

But to see whether or not your trading plan or trading routine is for you so that you can make tweaks along the way.

[You don’t need to monitor your trades the whole day]

You might have heard the saying...

"You need to monitor your trades all the time to be a successful trader."

Nope.

Instead, you need a trading routine that works. One that doesn’t require you to stare at the charts all day.

So here’s a template you can use…

Example 1: You have a full-time job

–Weekends = Identify potential trading setups for the week
–Before work = Identify setups that are triggered and place your orders
–Lunch time = Check your portfolio and see if your trades are executed
–After work = Journal and review your trades

Now, what if you are a day trader?

Example 2: You are a day trader

–Before market hours = Identify potential trading setups for the day
–Market hours = Set alerts when the price comes to your level and trade it according to your plan
–After market hours = Journal and review your trades

Now…

Regardless of the type of trader you are, you must devote time to planning.

Because if you fail to plan, then you plan to fail.

[When it comes to trading indicators, less is more]

Here’s the thing:

Having more indicators on your chart does not increase your chances of a winning trade but only gives you analysis paralysis and not taking the trade.

You’d probably get better results if you only had a handful of indicators on your chart!

That’s why we want to have an indicator that can single-handedly:

–Determine your entries
–Determine how you’ll take profits
–Determine your stop loss

Having fewer indicators keeps your charts clean and helps you make faster decisions which will make your trading process much more efficient.

[How to use trading indicators like a pro]

You don’t want to have multiple indicators from the same category because they are correlated and doesn’t provide any new information.

That’s like trying to get your wife pregnant in one month by “firing” incessantly. It doesn’t work.

And it’s the same for trading.

So, the rule of thumb is this:

Have only one indicator for each purpose.

I’ll explain…

If you want to trail your stop loss, you can use either the Moving Average or Chandelier Exit — but not both.

Or if you want to time your entry, you can use either the RSI indicator or Stochastic, but not two together because they have the same purpose.

[The ONE thing you should never do in trading]

Trading is a mental game.

If you want to excel in this endeavour, your mindset must be at peak performance.

But if you borrow money to trade, you erode whatever edge that you might have.

Here’s why…

Trading with borrowed money = Money you can’t afford to lose.

And when you trade with money you can’t afford to lose, you make poor trading decisions because you have the “I can’t afford to lose” mentality.

So, what do you do?

- You shift your stop loss because you don’t want to take a loss
- You take tiny profits because you’re afraid of watching them turn to losers
- You average into your losers hoping to catch the bounce and recover your losses

Eventually, your poor decisions catch up with you and you lose everything (including the money you borrowed).

Now you’re worst off than before because not only are you broke — you’re also in debt.

Do you want this to happen to you?

Then, don’t borrow money to trade.

Repeat after me…

I’ll never borrow money to trade!

[Why you always get stop hunted and how to avoid it]

Imagine…

You manage a hedge fund and want to buy 1 million shares of ABC stock. You know support is at $100 and ABC is currently trading at $110.

Now if you were to buy ABC stock right now, you’ll likely push the price higher and get filled at an average price of $115 — that’s $5 higher than the current price.

So what do you do?

Since you know $100 is an area of support, chances are, there will be a cluster of stop loss underneath it (from traders who are long ABC stock).

So, if you could push the price lower to trigger these stops, there would be a flood of sell orders hitting the market (as buyers will exit their losing positions).

With the amount of selling pressure coming in, you could buy your 1 million shares of ABC stock from these traders which gives you a better average price.

In other words, if an institution wants to long the markets with minimal slippage, they tend to place a sell order to trigger nearby stop losses. This allows them to buy from traders cutting their losses, which offers them a more favourable entry price.

Go look at your charts and you’ll often see the market taking out the lows of support, only to trade higher subsequently.

Now you’re probably wondering:

“So how do I avoid it?”

Simple.

Set your stop loss a distance away from support to give it some buffer so your stop loss doesn’t get eaten too easily.

Here’s how…
- Identify the lows of support
- Find the current Average True Range (ATR) value and subtract 1 ATR from the lows of support

The idea is to define the current market’s volatility and then subtract it from the lows of support.

This way, you are giving your stop loss a buffer that’s based on the volatility of the markets (and not just some random number).

Pro Tip:
If you want a tighter stop loss, you can reduce your ATR multiple, like having 0.5 ATR instead of 1.

[Support could become resistance, why?]

There are two reasons for this…

Reason #1: Losing traders hoping to get out at breakeven

Support is an area where potential buying pressure could step in and push the price higher.

However, support doesn’t always hold.

When it breaks, those traders who are long will be sitting in the red. The smart traders will cut their losses and move on. But, stubborn traders will hold onto to their losses and hope the price will reverse back to their entry price — so they can get out at breakeven.

So if you think about it, this group of stubborn traders will create selling pressure at their entry price as they exit their positions, and if there’s enough of such traders, support will become resistance.

But that’s not all because…

Reason #2: Textbook setup

Traders familiar with classical technical analysis will look to sell at the previous area of support as that’s what most textbooks teach.

And if you get enough traders “following” the textbook setup, it puts selling pressure on the previous area of support which could now become resistance.

[Why support and resistance are not lines on your chart]

Let me share with you a story…

In my early days of trading, I used to think my support and resistance lines are the best and the market will respect it to the pip.

But it didn’t take me long to realize my support and resistance levels keep getting breached, and I thought it was a breakout.

So I traded the breakout.

The next thing I know, the price quickly made a swift reversal in the opposite direction and I got stopped out.

So, I looked back at my charts and asked myself:

“What the hell went wrong?”

Well, it seems the levels I drew did hold up, albeit not to the exact pip.

And that’s when I had an “Aha!” moment…

I realized support and resistance are not lines, instead, they are areas on my chart. Here’s why…

There are usually two groups of traders in the market:

- FOMO traders
- Cheapo traders


I’ll explain…

Traders with the fear of missing out (FOMO) would enter their trades the moment price comes close to support.

And if there’s enough buying pressure, the market would reverse at that location.

On the other hand, some traders want to get the best possible price (cheapo traders), so they place orders at the lows of support. And if enough traders do it, the market will reverse near the lows of support.

But here’s the thing:

You’ve no idea which group of traders will be in control. Whether it’s FOMO or cheapo traders.

Thus, support and resistance are areas on your chart, not lines.

[The truth about support and resistance nobody tells you]

If you read most trading textbooks, they’ll tell you that the more times support and resistance are tested, the stronger they become.

But that’s not true, because the more times support and resistance are tested within a short period, the weaker they become.

Here’s why…

Support exists because there’s potential buying pressure around a certain price level.

(This buying pressure could be institutional orders, retail orders, smart money, etc.)

So what happens when the price re-tests support multiple times?

Well, these orders start to fill up.

Eventually, when all these orders are filled up, there’s no one left to buy and that’s when support breaks.

This means the more times support and resistance is tested (especially within a short period), the weaker it becomes.

Why a short period?

Because it’s unlikely new orders will be “replenished” so quickly.

And that’s why the more times support and resistance are tested within a short period, the weaker they become.

[The hidden cost of copy trading that nobody tells you]

Copy trading is a business.

So, if you’re not being charged any upfront fee, then you’re paying more for the spread and overnight fees.

I’ll explain…

For most Forex brokers, the spread on EUR/USD is 1 pip. But on a copy trading platform, you might pay 2 to 3 pips more.

But don’t take my words for it because you can compare the spreads of a normal Forex broker with a copy trading platform and you’ll see the difference.

So, what’s the implication?

Two things.

#1: If you’re a trader being copied, then bear in mind your trading strategy won’t work as well because you’re paying more in spread (compared to a typical Forex broker).

#2: If you’re copying another trader, then it’s best to follow traders who trade infrequently so the spread doesn’t eat up a huge chunk of your profits.

Now, the spread isn’t your only cost because you still have to consider overnight fees (if you’re holding positions for longer than a day).

This fee is calculated by taking Libor + X%.

(Libor stands for inter-bank offered rate. It’s an interest rate that banks charge to other banks for borrowing the money.)

So, what is X?

Well, this is the mark up that’s determined by the copy trading platform and you’ll need to check with them for the exact amount.

The good news is, you don’t have to worry about calculating all these because the platform will likely do it for you—so do check it out before placing a trade.

Now, there are probably other fees to consider but the spread and overnight fees make up the chunk of it.

[Pullback stock trading tips]

When it comes to stock trading, it’s possible to have hundreds of stocks forming a pullback trading setup at the same time.

So the question is:

How do you know which stocks to buy and which to avoid?

Well, the secret is to focus on stocks which have increased the most in price over the last 12 months.

Why?

Because these are stocks likely to outperform the market (and it’s been proven in theory as well according to the paper Returns to Buying Winners and Selling Losers by Jegadeesh and Titman).

So, how do you apply this to your trading?

1. Rank stocks according to their rate of change (ROC) over the last 50-weeks—from the highest to the lowest

2. Look for a pullback trading setup on stocks with the highest ROC value. If there isn’t, then move to the next stock (with a lower ROC value)

3. The top 5 stocks with a valid pullback trading setup are the ones to focus on

Pro Tip:
You can use a platform like Thinkorswim to help you rank the stocks, and it’s free.

[Always be a student of the markets]

Here’s my learning curve as a trader:

I started with indicators, then price action trading.

And for a few years, I thought that’s all I needed because after all, the price is king and that’s all I needed to be a profitable trader.

But that hurts my growth because I tuned out everything else (and limited myself only to price action trading).

When I realized my folly, I quickly went back to being a student of the markets.

So I asked myself:

“What are other winning traders doing to profit from the markets?”

That’s when I got exposed to trend following, systems trading, mean reversion trading, etc.

By expanding my knowledge and incorporating different strategies, I was able to find more trading opportunities (most traders are blinded to).

So here's the deal...

You may (or may not) be a profitable trader but, it doesn’t mean your learning curve is over because you’re always a student of the market.

I encourage you to keep learning and exploring new strategies.

Don't limit yourself to just one approach, because there's always more to discover.

Ultimately, the key is to remain open-minded and willing to try new things. It can be scary to step outside your comfort zone, but it's often the only way to achieve true growth and success.

[Follow your trading plan regardless of each trade’s outcome]

When I was a 7-year-old, my teacher would give me a “star sticker” whenever I put in the effort to do my homework, regardless of whether the answer is right or wrong.

In other words, she rewards effort, not the outcome.

If you think about it, this approach is highly suitable for trading.

You should reward yourself whenever you follow your trading plan regardless of whether the trade is a winning or a loser.

So here’s how the star system works…

–Every time you follow your plan, you get 1 star
–Every time you didn’t follow your plan, you get -2 stars
–The goal of the star system is to accumulate 100 stars

As you can see, the focus isn’t to make profits.

Rather, it’s to accumulate as many stars as possible by being consistent with your actions.

Remember, a consistent set of actions lead to a consistent set of results.

[You must trade with an edge (otherwise nothing else matters)]

You might be wondering:

“What is an edge?”

In layman’s terms, an edge is something you do repeatedly that yields a positive result.

For example:

The casino has an edge over the players because with more bets being played, the more the casino earns (in the long-run).

In mathematical terms, an edge is something that gives you a positive expectancy in the long run.

For example:

If every time you toss a coin and it comes up head, you win $2. And if it comes up tail, I lose $1.

In the long run, who will win?

You, of course!

By the way, if you want to learn a new trading system that has an edge in the markets, then check this out.

Now, this is important so I’ll repeat…

You must have an edge in the markets if you want to be a consistently profitable trader.

It doesn’t matter if you have the best trading psychology, risk management, favourable risk-to-reward ratio, etc.

Because without an edge, none of it matters.

Don’t believe me?

Then head down to your nearest casino.

You can bring along the best psychology, apply proper risk management, play games with favourable risk to reward, but in the long-run, you’ll still lose money.

Why?

Because the casino has a mathematical edge over you.

And it’s the same for trading!

IF you want to profit from the financial markets, then you must have an edge!

[Be prepared for a steep learning curve before profitability]

I’m sure you can agree:

Professionals like lawyers, doctors, pilots, etc. spend 5 years (or more) to master their craft.

That’s why in the early years of their career, they typically don’t “see the money” as they are in the learning stage.

But when they get good at it, BOOM, the money starts rolling in—but, it doesn’t happen overnight.

And it’s the same for a professional trader!

You’ll take years to build your foundation, make mistakes, find your edge, and if you survive long enough, you can’t help but get good at it.

So, don’t come into trading thinking you can quit your day job after taking an online course—it doesn’t work that way.

There’s a steep learning curve ahead and you must be prepared for it.

You’ve been warned.

Here’s the thing:

A trading strategy seeks to exploit certain market conditions in order to profit from it.

But as you know, the markets are always changing. One moment it could be trending, the next, it could be ranging.

In other words, you’ll make money when market conditions are favourable to you.

[To be a pro trader, you must be willing to get your hands dirty]

Now:

Just because you came up with a hypothesis to your question, doesn’t mean it’s correct.

That’s why as a professional trader, it’s your job to validate your trading ideas (or hypothesis).

You’ve got to get your hands dirty and do the work like backtesting, forward testing, etc.

For example, you might wonder:

“Is a 10-week breakout better than a 50-week breakout in terms of returns relative to risk?”

Well, to find out you can do a backtest across a universe of stocks using these two parameters, and see which offers a better result.

To make your life easier, here are some tools you can use for backtesting…

Amibroker – A backtesting platform
Norgate Data – Data feed
Upwork – A marketplace to find programmers

Still, most of you won’t do it because it’s easier to solicit an opinion than to actually do the work.

The problem is, you’ll never know if it’s true, or not—that’s why you must be willing to get your hands dirty and do the work!

–What is the best RSI setting?

You’re probably wondering:

“What’s wrong with it?”

Well, it’s a sign you cannot think independently. It shows you want to be spoon-fed so you can skip the “work” and go straight to profits.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way.

Why?

Because in trading, there’s no such thing as “best”.

What’s “best” for me might not be right for you because of our different goals, timeframe, personality, etc.

So…

If you want to succeed in trading (or in business), you must have the ability to think independently.

So instead of asking “what” or “when” questions, learn to ask…

Why.

This means you want to ask questions like:

–Why did he apply this trading strategy only to the stock markets and not FX?
–Why did he use a 200-day moving average as a trend filter?
–Why did he use a 40% trailing stop loss?

Do you see the difference?

[The secret to using multiple timeframes like a pro trader]

I’ll be honest.

I didn’t figure it out on my own.

Instead, I learned it from Adam Grimes and Alexander Elder.

So here’s the “secret”….

When you trade with multiple timeframes, your higher timeframe should be between a factor of 4 to 6 of your entry timeframe.

Confused?

No worries, I’ll explain…

Let’s say for example your trading timeframe is the 1-hour timeframe.

So, which should you reference as your higher timeframe?

1. Take 1-hour multiply by 4, you get a 4-hour timeframe
2. Then, take 1-hour multiply by 6, you get a 6-hour timeframe

This means your higher timeframe can be between 4 and 6-hour

Does it make sense?

Here’s another example:

Let’s say your trading timeframe is the 5-mins timeframe.

Which should you reference as your higher timeframe?

1. Take the 5-mins multiply by 4, you get 20-mins
2. Then, take 5-mins multiply by 6, you get 30-mins

This means your higher timeframe can be between 20 and 30mins

Don't focus on goals like: I want to make $20k a month.

It will NOT improve your results.

Instead, focus on the process like:

I will follow my plan consistently regardless of the outcome.

I will stay out of the market when I don't have a setup.

I will journal my trades.

And etc.

[Avoid this mistake when trading multiple timeframes]

Imagine:

You want to spy on your neighbour for god knows what reason.

Perhaps they are doing illegal activities, you’re a nosy park, whatever.

But there’s a fence built between you and your neighbour so you each have your privacy.

How do you overcome this?

Do you take a trip to space and spy down on your neighbour’s house?

Of course not!

Why?

Because you are “too far” out and the sights (or images) you see will not be relevant to your needs.

You’re probably wondering:

“What has this got to do with trading?”

Well, it’s the same concept.

If you want to glean insights from the higher timeframe, you can’t zoom out too far because the information you’ll get is not relevant to you.

One tip I can give to a fearful trader is to trade smaller.

Keep reducing risk to your comfort level, and slowly work your way up.

Rome wasn't built in a day and it's the same for your trading account.

[You can’t make money every day from trading if you don’t have this one thing…]

Let’s play a game…

– If you toss a coin and it comes up heads, you win $2
– If you toss a coin and it comes up tails, you lose $1
– You can only toss the coin once a day

Now let me ask you…

Do you think you can make money every day from this coin toss?

Of course not.

Because on any day, there’s a 50% chance you either get head or tail—and if it comes up tail, you’ll lose $1.

But what if you can toss the coin 1,000 times per day? How would things change?

Let’s see…

If you toss a coin 1,000 times, you’ll likely get around 500 heads and 500 tails.

(Every time it comes up heads, you win $2. If it’s tails, you lose $1.)

So if you do the math, you’ll end up with a net gain of $500.

Now let me ask you…

If you had this “special” coin and could toss it 1,000 times per day, do you think you can make money every day from tossing this coin?

Yes!

So, what’s the lesson here?

The frequency of your coin toss matters.

You might be wondering:

“What has this got to do with trading?”

Everything!

Because if you want to make money every day from trading, your frequency of trades plays a huge role.

That’s because the more trades you can do within a short period of time, the faster the law of large numbers can work in your favour (think of the coin toss example).

[Have another source of income to tide over the tough times in trading]

Here’s the truth:

No matter how good you are as a trader, you’ll encounter losing streaks, losing weeks, and possibly even losing years.

If you do not prepare for it, you’ll face difficulties putting food on the table, paying your bills, etc.

And in such scenarios, it’s difficult to make good trading decisions because you’re trading with money you can’t afford to lose.

You’ll average into your losses hoping to make it back quickly or widen your stop loss so you don’t lose your money.

So what can you do about it?

Well, that’s where having another source of income helps.

It could be having a job, an online business, affiliate marketing, etc.—the more sources you have, the better.

Here are some ideas you can think about:

– Affiliate marketing (recommend products & services you believe in and get paid for it)

– Coaching program

– Online course

– Earn advertising fees (from YouTube, Google, etc.)

Now, building multiple sources of income is like digging a well.

You want to focus on digging a well till water comes up before you move on and dig another well.

Otherwise, if you dig many wells at once, you’ll end up with no water because you didn’t dig deep enough.

And it’s the same thing for building multiple sources of income.
