Hey Trader,
Finding True Success in Trading
I hope this message finds you well. As we navigate the complexities of the trading world, it's essential to remember the values that guide us, both in life and in our trading journey.
Proverbs 21:3 reminds us, "To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice."
This powerful verse serves as a poignant reminder that integrity and righteousness should be at the core of all our endeavors.
In trading, it's easy to get caught up in the pursuit of profits and the stress of market fluctuations.
However, true success comes from making ethical decisions, treating others fairly, and maintaining a principled approach, even when it's challenging.
Let this verse inspire you to align your trading strategies with what is right and just.
By doing so, not only will you find greater fulfillment in your trading activities, but you'll also build a reputation of trust and respect within the trading community.
Wishing you wisdom and success in all your trades!
Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will
Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

Live Trading: A Real-Time Analysis of a Crude Oil Trade
Greetings, fellow traders! Anthony Speciale here, and I hope you're having a wonderful day. Today, I’m excited to walk you through an actual trade, complete with live analysis.
This isn't hindsight analysis or cherry-picking; this is genuine, real-time market analysis, conducted live in front of traders using real money.
The goal is to showcase the credibility and effectiveness of live analysis, which sets successful traders apart.
The Importance of Live Market Analysis
Many so-called "gurus" on the internet claim they can predict market movements, but their marketing analyses are often done in hindsight.
By sharing live market analyses, I aim to prove that identifying trades as they happen is crucial for credibility and success in trading.
Analyzing the Crude Oil Trade
Let's dive into a specific trade on light sweet crude oil.
This is the exact screen I trade on, and I'll guide you through my thought process and the tools I used to pinpoint high-probability, low-risk entry points.
The Setup: Identifying Market Conditions
On the top left of the screen, you’ll see a 4-hour chart, which is my primary tool for analysis.
Crude oil had been on a significant uptrend, breaking recent highs from May 20th and continuing to push higher.
However, by early morning, between 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM, the price action entered a consolidative state.
This period of stagnation was a key indicator that a correction might be imminent.
The Prediction: Anticipating a Correction
Given the aggressive uptrend, I anticipated a potential correction.
Markets that rise rapidly often experience sharp corrections. I advised my audience that we were likely to see a breather or pullback soon.
This prediction proved accurate as the price action eventually broke out of the consolidation zone.
The Trade: Entering Based on Volume Analysis
Once we broke below the consolidation area, the market confirmed a correction.
Specifically, I noted that if we could stay below the 80.20 level, the price had a strong chance of retesting and breaking past prior lows.
Execution: Capturing the Move
Here’s how the trade unfolded:
Initial Short Entry: At the 80.20 level, capturing a move that provided over 100 ticks of profit.
Secondary Entry: For those who missed the initial entry, a second opportunity arose when the price retraced to the prior low on high buying volume, which then turned into resistance. This provided another chance to enter short, yielding around 75 ticks.
The Key: Understanding Volume and Price Action
Identifying these trading opportunities relies heavily on understanding the relationship between volume and price action.
