Hey Trader,
Secure Your Foundation in Faith
In the fast-paced world of trading, the importance of a solid foundation cannot be overstated.
Just as you seek to build a strong portfolio, remember the eternal foundation that offers true security:
As you navigate the markets, keep your faith at the center.
It is your greatest asset, providing peace and assurance regardless of market conditions. Let this truth guide your actions and decisions, knowing that your faith secures your ultimate future.
Wishing you strength and clarity in all your trades!
Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

Shorting @ Higher Timeframe KEY Level Into Prior Consolidation
Trading is more than just a way to make money—it's a pathway to freedom.
For many, including myself, the allure of trading lies in the ability to break free from the conventional nine-to-five grind, whether that’s working a desk job or managing a small business.
Trading offers the potential to unchain ourselves from the constraints of traditional work and to truly live life on our own terms.
The Motivation Behind Trading
As a trader, my motivation has always been driven by a desire to create a lifestyle that allows me to spend more time doing what I love with the people I care about most.
The ability to plan my day around my trading schedule, where I can finish my work by midday and have the rest of the day free, is what drives me.
Whether it’s playing golf, riding my motorcycle, or simply enjoying a leisurely walk, trading has given me the freedom to choose how I spend my time.
But it’s not just about the freedom.
The key to success in trading—and in life—is having a purpose that goes beyond just making money.
When your purpose is rooted in something meaningful, the money seems to come more naturally.
For me, it’s about helping others achieve the same freedom I’ve found through trading.
The Importance of Process Over Profits
One of the most important lessons I’ve learned in my trading journey is the value of focusing on the process rather than the profits.
If you prioritize profits over process, you’re likely to become part of the high percentage of traders who fail. But when you focus on refining your process, the profits will follow.
This approach is not just about making money—it’s about building a sustainable trading strategy that allows you to thrive in the long term.
By dedicating yourself to a solid trading process, you increase your chances of success and avoid the pitfalls that many traders fall into.
Why I Share My Journey
I could easily step away from the trading community once my trades are done for the day, but I choose to dedicate my time to helping others.
I believe that everyone deserves the freedom that comes with successful trading, and I’m committed to sharing my knowledge and experiences to help others achieve their goals.
Whether it’s through LIVE Futures Market Sessions where we analyze the S&P 500, Nasdaq, Crude Oil, and Gold markets, or through detailed blog posts and video content, my goal is to provide value to traders at all levels.
I want to show that trading isn’t just about making quick profits—it’s about building a life that is meaningful and fulfilling.
A Morning Trade Breakdown
Let me walk you through a trade I made this morning to illustrate how I approach the markets. This trade was in the crude oil market, which I focus on for myself exclusively.
However, in our live sessions, we cover multiple sectors because not every sector presents opportunities every day.
A key level at $73 was acting as resistance, and I took a short position when the price tested this level and failed to break through.
My profit target was set at a level of consolidation below the resistance, and the trade played out as expected, with the price moving in my favor and even giving me a better fill than anticipated.
This trade is a perfect example of how understanding key levels and market structure can lead to profitable opportunities.
Scaling Your Trading Strategy
For newer traders, it’s important to start small and gradually scale up as you gain confidence and experience.
This might mean starting with micro contracts and paper trading until you’ve proven your strategy is consistently profitable.
As you build your skill and confidence, you can increase your position size and take on more significant trades.
Remember, everyone’s trading journey is different. Some traders prefer to focus on a single market, while others diversify across multiple sectors.
The Path to Freedom
But to achieve this freedom, you must focus on the process, stay true to your purpose, and continually work on improving your strategy.
By doing so, you can create a life that is not only financially rewarding but also meaningful and fulfilling.
If you’re ready to take your trading to the next level, I encourage you to join me on this journey. Together, we can achieve the freedom and success that trading has to offer.
Stay informed, stay focused and stay disciplined ! ! !
