After that, it's leverage. The issue for me as a long-time trader, is people these days don't seem to have time, patience or the ability to absorb information. They read an article or watch a few seconds of a stream and assume they know! I am not just talking crypto, I mean in general. The attention span of a fish. I read a pretty decent article by this...
As a trader now of over 23 years, I have read a few hundred trading books in that time. It is always really interesting to have other people's perspective, strategies, hint, tips and tools. However, the main issue is not knowing if you are likely to get value from the book you purchase as it is also very subjective. You either have issues such as the book is too...
When you first start trading, everything seems like a good idea! You want to take every trade, use every indicator, watch every video and stream! Be like every influencer! You get this feeling that you found something new, that you are the chosen one. Unfortunately, it's for this same reason - 90% of new retail traders lose 90% of their money in the first 90...
This is a lot different to our normal video but I really wanted to show the @TradingView community how you can use AI to build indicators in @PineCoders I thought it would be easier to do as a video idea than a stream.

The major issue with 99% of retail, is that they seek tops and bottoms. They watch a video or read a post and DIVE not knowing, or understanding some simple logic. To be a successful trader you need a level head. As soon as you realise profits are made in a range and not by trying to time market tops and bottoms, there more you succeed. There are thousands of...
In August last year, I published an educational post around Fibonacci. There's also thousands of articles and books available on the topic. But how does it fit with being emotional? Often people talk about Algos, smart money concepts and a load of other terms. All trying to make sense of the market, Fibonacci isn't magical or mystical. It's a set of simple...
I have been a trader for a very long time, so listen as I spit some facts. News is worse than a distraction, it ACTIVELY inhibits you from making good decisions. You have TradingView at your fingertips and it contains all the information you need, in a package so advanced it's frightening. STICK TO PRICE ACTION! I will say this again at the end. I am 100%...
I've written several articles around various educational topics here on @TradingView all of which have their individual application and use case. This latest post will go into how you can identify key value areas, or what I like to call "Auction areas". In essence these are areas or zones where Dumb money becomes active, often at highs or lows & usually in the...
Not often do you get an opportunity to show a real world example of a text book move - live. Here's a simple educational post showing the two major types of breaks of the trend. This is the current price level as of the 24th of Jan 2022. You can see this as a corrective break - the main reason for this, is that the chart is only the 1 hour, whereas if you...
Over the last couple of months, I have posted several educational articles. This one is to show how some of the tools widely used in trading can actually fit together. I wrote a post a while ago about Dow Theory and how it fits into most modern technical analysis. Click on each link to get the in depth content from the posts When looking at a trend, cycle or...
