10 Trading Tips for any strategy. (Thread)
Becoming a great trader is a process of self-discovery. It is very important to understand this from the get-go and start by finding a proven style, or methodology that jives with who you are.
Did you know 3 out of every 4 stocks follow the direction of the general market? Anytime you are trading against the trend you are putting the odds heavily against yourself.
Next time you take a loss, try not to take it too personally. Sometimes you can do everything perfectly and you are still going to take a loss. That’s part of being a consistently successful trader.
By maintaining a trading journal and doing post-analysis, you can answer extremely important questions like…
What is working? What am I doing right?
What is not working? What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?
The fact is, the only thing you need is price and volume. Remember, it’s not the actual news that is important. It’s the reaction to the news that matters. Hence the phrase, “price is news.”
The key is to focus on a small area of market knowledge and make it a never-ending journey to learn everything you possibly can related to that one specific area of the market. Everything else is irrelevant!
When you keep your focus small, on what matters, and you do it very well – that is when you will find success in your trading and be able to make those decisions much more quickly because you are able to instantly decipher what the charts are telling you.
You need to have a list of rules that you agree are non-negotiable – especially as a new trader. However, too many rules will cause you to hesitate when it is time to act. Don't be too rigid in your approach or you will miss amazing opportunities!

How to time the market (thread)
There is the old saying that “Time in the market beats timing the market” The chart below from Dr. Wish’s @WishingWealth presentation at the @TraderLion_ conference shows that to be false.

The green line is unattainable realistically, however, missing volatile times during corrections yields better performance than buy and hold and we can aim for the green line.
Investors usually only show the gray and red results.

There are many strategies for investing/trading in the stock market operating within different timeframes and with different objectives.
That is of course what creates a market and opportunity. Timing the market may not be what works for you or what fits your goals/lifestyle.
However, everyone involved in the market is here to make money over time and corrections can cause huge drawdowns in the high alpha names negating incredible performance during strong market uptrends.
