Main summary
Key takeaways
Finance-Focused Summary (Markets, Trading Approach, Risk/Methodology)
Trading Style / Performance Claims
- Primary focus: Intraday swing trading
- Holds trades for roughly 15–30 minutes when effectively day trading.
- Also mentions swing trades held about 4–5 days.
- Trading frequency: 3–4 trades per day on average (at most).
- Reported returns (examples)
- Claims around ~$1,500/day (described as “roughly a month’s salary” for some people).
- Provides an example: $60,000 → $360,000 after four days (COVID-era shorting).
Risk / Drawdown Experience
- Large early loss claim: about ~€120,000 lost within ~2 days
- Context: a major trade around end of March 2020.
- Key lesson: one losing trade can cause doubt and lead traders to overhaul a system too quickly.
- Cautionary point: don’t discard a working approach after only “2 losing trades” (as a general warning).
Macro / Event Timing
- Catalyst-based timing: uses major events and perceived “algorithmic” market behavior, including:
- FOMC meetings
- Common intraday pattern claim
- The first ~30 minutes are often a “fake move.”
- The second move is described as the “real move.”
- Claimed occurrence: roughly ~80% of the time
- Includes an explicit caveat: “please don’t believe me, check charts.”
Seasonal / Cyclical Timing
- Palladium and “Celebration”
- Buys palladium in early-to-mid December.
- Mentions “Celebration” in late December (unclear term; likely another seasonal reference to an asset/metal/position).
- Then waits for it to come down.
- Bitcoin seasonalities (context)
- Notes that March and September/October often align with market lows.
- Uses this as a backdrop for risk-on / risk-off expectations.

Methodology / Framework (Explicit Steps)
Indicator-Free Chart Reading
- No indicators: “absolutely nothing”
- Belief: indicators can mislead traders and anchor them to past behavior rather than future price action.
- Top-down structure
- Weekly → Daily, sometimes 4-hour
- Then zooms in to hourly
- Common execution timeframe: 15-minute / 5-minute
- Notes 3-minute / 1-minute can be noisier
Time-of-Day Routine
- Stops trading during the London session
- Starts around: 2:00–2:15pm (his time)
- Active checking
- ~30–60 minutes if a setup appears
- If no setup, continues checking until around 3:30–5:45pm
- Returns later around 7:00pm
- “Practice then execute” near New York open
- Practices 1–a few minutes before the NY open
- Example conversion: 3:30pm his time = 9:30am NY
- Manual execution is implied (no automated execution described)
Trade Management / Discipline
- Against greed
- Criticizes delaying profit-taking and taking losses out of “stingy” behavior.
- Emphasizes use of stop losses (also referenced within seasonal/preset trade planning).
- Emotional focus
- Reinforces continuing a tested strategy even during a losing streak.
Key Recommendations / Cautions (Explicit)
- Not financial advice
- Explicitly says there is “no trading advice” and no buy recommendation (notably regarding Bitcoin).
- Avoid indicator reliance
- Claims indicator clutter causes errors due to anchoring to history.
- Don’t overhaul after 1–2 losses
- Emphasizes emotional management: keep the strategy if it remains valid from prior work.
- Avoid greed
- Repeats that greedy behavior leads to losses; money management matters more.
- Risk framing for beginners
- Discourages “get rich overnight.”
- Encourages living outside trading and expecting losses as part of the process.
Numbers & Forecasts Mentioned (Macro / Market View)
