The objectives and mechanics behind our alerts and signals
While investing over the long term is important, attempting to profit off small moves on short timeframes can inevitably lead to you losing money. If you’re a beginner, you will lose money at first. It’s almost as if the markets make you pay your tuition before they let you reap the profits. And even once you become an experienced trader, not every trade works out – either initially, during the trade, or at the end. Your positions will be negative at some point.
The good news is that...
...the less money you will lose, the more you will profit, and the better trader you become.
The trading strategy I have found and tweaked (and let’s be clear, there are many variations of this, but I have developed a form of it that works for me, and I think it will work for you, too) attempts to control risk and bet on time passing as a primary function, rather than markets moving.
I am a middle-aged man who has spent life in publishing. So how did I get into trading?
Throughout my career, I always made long-term investments. I was not new to buying stocks and mutual funds, and during the financial crisis of 2008, I even successfully traded some of the big bank names that were extremely, hugely volatile at the time.
All along the way, my “side hustle” had been writing. I have written thousands of articles, whitepapers, and content marketing pieces over two decades. That provided a number of things for me, not the least of which was additional income.
However, my wife and I found out we were pregnant again. We were of course very excited, and then a few weeks later, we discovered we were going to have twins! What bundles of joy - and little sacks of cost and expense. I love them dearly, but kids are not cheap and there aren’t many volume discounts on rugrats, either.
For my wife and I to have normal full-time jobs and get full-time childcare at a local daycare center and preschool for our non-school age children was on the order of $1,000 every single week. That is more than my college tuition, room and board cost when I was a student, and these babies hadn’t even been born yet.
I knew I had to do something to augment our income.
That side hustle income from writing – well, guess what the likes of ChatGPT have done to the writing market. It wasn’t the answer to make more money.
Then a friend turned me on to options. Making a long story short, I set out to improve my trading skills, my psychology as a trader, and to learn all I could about how markets and technical analysis worked, how probability and statistics favored certain approaches to risk management and position sizing, and more.
The learning I spent years developing is now available to you as my A Trade or Two service. I’m sharing my method of generating low-risk income out of extremely liquid markets without having to be right all the time.
I don’t have time right now to stare at charts all day, and when I reach financial independence, I don’t want to stare at charts all day, either. That doesn’t mean there are not wonderful opportunities to profit from timely short-duration trades during the cash session that are available to those who are able and willing to continually watch their screens and run scans, but I have found from my trading journey that I quickly grow tired of that, and when I grow tired and fidgety, I make poor trading decisions.
