A Guide to Preparing For The Week.
Video.
This question came up 3 times the last few article of the weeks and I emailed back replies but for the sake of not having to answer it again and to give insight there is a video I made.
In short it comes down to:
Preparation - analyzing the market and ideas the week ahead and sometimes months ahead to prepare for catalyst/triggers.
I had been waiting all year to get long and it was June and September that those trades were put on. Yet, there’s this obsession with retail morning trading routines that are goofy, to say the least. I mean, some of the stuff I had to see on YouTube is just weird and in what world that translates to P&L is beyond me!
I get that when you’re new or learning that there’s a feel/need to do something all the time - it’s not like that. You can make it efficient and if you want to do this year after year then you need to get EFFICIENT.
I use that report you see us put out religiously.
This week was an idea that had a target of $250. I was long that from last week and covered it into that area today.
I didn’t wake up and scan stocks or wonder where I was out, that was all done over the weekend.

Preparation is what you can control - it takes 1-2 hours max on the weekend IF (and listen to me) you know what YOU ARE RESEARCHING and not just endlessly scrolling the inter webs for ideas.
