Hey Trader,


Finding Strength in Truth and Righteousness


In the dynamic world of trading, where uncertainty and rapid changes are the norm, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.


But remember, true strength comes from recognizing and embracing truth and righteousness.


As you navigate the complexities of the market, take inspiration from these powerful words: "When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment." - John 16:8


Just as this verse reminds us of the ultimate clarity and justice that will prevail, let it inspire you to make decisions rooted in integrity and informed judgment.


Trust in the process and stay committed to your principles.


The markets may be unpredictable, but your foundation in truth and righteousness will guide you towards wise and profitable decisions.


Stay focused, stay strong, and let your faith in righteousness lead the way!


Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will 

Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

Anthony Speciale



Risk Management Is Your Greatest Edge In The Market


My goal is to provide you with a clear understanding of my market approach, analysis, expectations, and thought processes. If you’re looking to learn or trade alongside someone, it’s crucial to understand their methodology. This way, you can decide if it aligns with your own trading style, saving both of us time and effort.


Trading is a business of probability.


Successful traders don’t blindly buy or sell based on indicators or software signals. Instead, they develop a deep understanding of market dynamics—volume, price action, and order flow—creating a robust trade plan with a well-defined risk management system. This approach has been proven over time to yield profitable results.


Let's dive into my charts . . .


Chart Analysis

As you can see, my setup is quite simple, focusing on volume and price action. My primary chart is a 5-minute chart of light sweet crude oil, supplemented by a 3-minute and a 1-minute chart to analyze intra-candle movements from higher time frames.


I start with a weekly and daily chart, applying my analysis to a 4-hour chart in the top left corner. I also keep an eye on the dollar index, as it can influence crude oil and other indices inversely.



Not every market presents opportunities daily, so focusing on multiple markets is essential. This year, I’ve increased my trade exposure and risk, concentrating solely on crude oil, which has proven effective. For new traders, I recommend focusing on one or two markets to apply your edge and fine-tune your strategies.


On Friday, I encountered a scenario where my initial expectations didn't play out. I anticipated a price revisit to the double bottom, targeting resting liquidity below.


However, the market had different plans. Understanding why these scenarios unfold differently is crucial for adapting your strategy.


Here’s a breakdown of the session:


  1. Initial Setup: We identified a double bottom, with the initial low at 5:40 AM and the second low at 7:40 AM. The market retraced higher aggressively from this point, presenting a buying opportunity around 8:35 AM.

  2. Trade Execution: As the market tumbled, I anticipated a flush into the lows, but the market found support and reversed. I shorted at 78.92, expecting the VWAP to hold. Despite initial profit taking, I was stopped out at break-even.

  3. Managing Risk and Taking Profit: When the market presented opportunities to take profits, I did so, ensuring I protected my capital. This approach allowed me to remain profitable despite the market not fulfilling my expectations.

  4. Market Behavior and Adaptation: The market exhibited indecision and choppiness, making it crucial to adapt. Recognizing areas of potential resistance and support enabled me to make informed decisions.

  5. Final Thoughts: Trading is about managing risk and being prepared to take profits when the market offers them. It’s not always about being right but about making the best decisions with the information available.


To succeed in trading, you need to invest time—at least 10,000 hours of live market experience. This dedication is essential to becoming a consistently disciplined and profitable trader. If you’re serious about mastering the markets and willing to endure the ups and downs, trading can be a rewarding business.

U.S. Government Required Disclaimer Stock, Futures, Forex & Options trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk and it is not appropriate for everyone. You must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to speculate in the Stocks, Futures, Forex, and Options markets. Don’t trade with money you can’t afford to lose. This is neither a solicitation nor an offer to Buy/Sell any securities. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown on this website. The past performance of any trading system or methodology is not necessarily indicative of future results.

 

CFTC RULE 4.41 Hypothetical or simulated performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

IMPORTANT NOTICE! No representation is being made that the use of this strategy or any system or trading methodology will generate profits. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. There is substantial risk of loss associated with trading securities and options on equities. Only risk capital should be used to trade. Trading securities is not suitable for everyone. Disclaimer: Futures, Options, and Currency trading all have large potential rewards, but they also have large potential risk.

Cryptocurrency Trading Cryptocurrencies on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for everyone. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before getting involved in Cryptocurrency trading you should carefully consider your personal venture objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial deposit and therefore you should not place funds that you cannot afford to lose.

You should fully understand the risks associated with trading futures, options, ETF’s and retail off-exchange foreign currency transactions (“Forex”) before making any trades.

Hypothetical Results Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations - unless noted otherwise that an image or any material discloses live money was used, results displayed or openly discussed are to be assumed simulated for educational purposes only. No live money brokerage accounts will be traded or displayed by request or otherwise.  Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs, in general, are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
