Trading is two jobs. Most traders only have tools for one. Here is the thinking, tactics, and philosophy behind the second.
In early April, my trading account was around $350. Over the last few weeks, I have been practicing The Strat, and I found my way to Jim Bradley. I had a solid start last week, and I have decided to…

Poor grammar, admittedly. But trading fastly can make the difference between winning and losing. Mark Melnick called a trade in FSLY this morning, and I joined him. It was a vicious pop…
