@Glitch_Trades Thanks glitch, you're my inspiration of my life, I still continue working hard as I seen you as my only hope for retailers like me,

My goal is to drop so much free alpha here that a few of you will take the torch from me as I take my leave from FinX forever. Consume all the knowledge and learn everything while you can. You’ve got a big journey ahead.

Bruh now we got Goldman Stanley reading my DD posts as well. W. T. F. $META

@Glitch_Trades There's much more to learn from ya, especially the risk management

Anyone interested in another Substack post regarding how I structure my positions to ensure I can endure drawdown on swings while staying green as many days as possible? E.G. in order to hit absolute banger swings, there will be days they draw down. Sometimes HEAVY. You need to maintain conviction in your thesis despite this. I have a tip top secret in how I manage to endure drawdown on my swings and let them play out to my hypothesis and still end most days green. If interested, I can fire up the good 'ol pen again, just let me know.

One life tip — If you’re all time red in your portfolio, and you’re in the mindset of looking to ‘make it back’, just stop. If you’re trying to make something back, you’ll be in a constant state of psychological weakness and revenge trading. Trading is literally a lifelong skill. If you get real good, your family, kids, and future generation could be set up forever. People spend $100K + on University to get a job that will get displaced by AI. Consider your losses in the market the cost of TUITION. The cost to learn and play the game. And give yourself a clean, fresh, slate to start off from. Trust me when I say this is an absolute must. The more you try to make your losses back, the deeper your hole will become.

Guys and gals. By the time I am done writing this post, my prior DD post will have gotten 1,000 likes. Thank you all for your service, but I need to post a PSA and disclaimer as I am seeing very self-destructive behavior from everyone on sizing and risk management. I TAKE A LOT OF LOSSES. MY WIN RATE IS AROUND 85% ON A GOOD MONTH AND COULD GO DOWN TO 45% ON A BAD MONTH. THE WAY I MAKE MONEY IS VIA SNIPING MASSIVE RISK TO REWARD TRADES. $NOW WENT 1,000%+ $QCOM WENT 2,000%+ $SNOW WENT 1,000%+ $MSFT WENT 700%+ You add all those up, and you have the ability to take full losses on around 40+ TRADES and STILL be break-even. This is why the risk to reward RATIO is the most important part of trading. With that said, you would need to be able to roll the dice enough times for the risk/reward ratio and win rate % to play out and run its course. If you are OVERSIZING, and NOT LEAVING enough bullets in the chamber to spread out your trades and diversify, you are suffocating yourself, and you WILL BLOW UP. Don't be retarded, I am warning you. All you need to do is size consistently, manage risk properly, and follow our lead, and you will be able to feed your family for a lifetime. Don't let greed, and degenerate behavior destroy your future opportunities.

One of the best trader in the market and he's sharing valueble knowledge and information for free to everybody that follows him. I havent got capital to pledge him yet, im still need many time to learn from him but he's absolutely a nut on x , Thanks @Glitch_Trades !

Haven’t seen a single bearish post tonight. Do we know what that means?

@Glitch_Trades Glitch, how do you identify a bull to bear market trade swift ?

The next generation of profitable traders won't have an edge because they found the right stock to trade. They'll have an edge because they entered before everyone else, and that's a terrifying reality for 99% of traders. Here's why in the 🧵👇:

15/ The answer isn't that I'm predicting price. The answer is that I'm trying to identify where capital is positioning BEFORE the rotation becomes obvious. Over time and with experience, what you'll notice is that these rotations HAVE NOT CHANGED in the past DECADE.... When $AMD, $NVDA, $MU, $AMAT rips, $QCOM and $DELL follows. $NOW rips, $CRM follows. $TEAM, $WDAY, etc. are also in this same bucket. When $SPOT rips, $SHOP and $LULU follows. When $SNOW rips, $PLTR and $IBM follows. You only LEARN these rotations through experience and time in the market, and I am GIVING IT TO YOU now. As a trader, it will be your GOAL to understand and identify how these rotations across sectors, but also names within sectors are sequenced. Then you will not only be able to front run retail, but you will also be able to front run the whales. This is what I mean when I say you need to be playing Chess, not Checkers. I just gave you a hint of how I play Chess, I can't reveal the EXACT sequencing as that is pretty much my entire edge, but learn these rotations, and you'll feed your family for a lifetime.

@Glitch_Trades wise words

If you are truly bullish, why not buy a pullback? If you are truly bearish, why not short into a pump? Make it make sense. The reason why most traders fail is because they buy the pump if they're bullish and they short the dump if they're bearish. Don't be the exit liquidity.

For those asking which expiration to choose. This depends on your level of aggression and when you expect the move to play out. There is no clear answer. I’m personally an aggressive trader and I take closer expirations right before when I believe a big move is expected to happen. The risk is that you have less time for your trade to play out and any gap down could kill your contract leaving it no time to recover. Longer dated contracts will be more expensive and gamma effect will be less impactful on the contract premium, therefore lower % return, BUT you buy the peace of mind and time. Even if a ticker shows major VEX 6+ months out, the move can play out much sooner, or it could take the full 6 months, or not even hit the target at 6 months. Take the above variables, and find the style that suits you best. Don’t try to trade EXACTLY like someone else. Everyone has different personalities, different risk profiles, different emotional triggers and you need to build and craft the strategy that works best for you and keeps your emotional triggers in check. That’s the beauty of trading.

@Glitch_Trades Looking forward to it! Talon is killing

Who's ready for the next Talon Substack? @GlitchSPX" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@GlitchSPX? Finally seeing some new tickers pop up on it.

PLEASE listen to me. The markets REACHED my target. We are now at a crucial level where markets are EXHAUSTED. 1. This is NOT the time to LUMP SUM big into stocks already stretched very far. You can KEEP your winners, but trim 20% profits. 2. Look for BOTTOMING stocks for rotation. These will go down still, but down LESS. 3. A healthy -5% dip is COMING SOON. Be prepared for -20% - 50% drawdowns on VOLATILE stocks 4. BALANCE with strong defensive compounders so you can survive!!! You NEED to stay safe. Please I beg you.

Found this trick. 🙇‍♂️ Buy calls that Trump owns, wait for ER Close it next day for 1000% BANGER! 🚀🚀📈📈📈💥💥💥 $DELL

7 years of trading options. Lost over $30,000. Blown accounts I can't even count. There was a point I seriously considered quitting forever. I was making less than $ 30k at my 9-5. Struggling financially. Struggling mentally. Trading was supposed to be the way out. Instead it became the thing that was destroying me. I remember one point, it was 2am. I was staring at my brokerage screen after blowing $500 on a revenge trade. Kept refreshing hoping the number would change. It never did. Too embarrassed to tell anyone. Dodging family questions. Starting to wonder if maybe I just wasn't smart enough. Maybe these traders on social media had something I didn't. I tried everything. Every YouTube strategy. Every Discord. Spent thousands on courses. Scalping. Swing trading. Signals. Indicators. All of it. Every time - further in the hole. Then one January morning. Down $4,000 year to date. Sat on the edge of my bed, head in my hands. Told myself I was done. And then I realized something. I had been treating trading like gambling. Forcing trades. Oversizing. Chasing. Revenge trading. I scrapped everything. Started over with tiny positions and a checklist . One rule: if a trade doesn't meet every condition, I don't take it. Doesn't matter how good it looks. The edge was being boringly selective, not finding a better setup. That's when everything changed. 7 years later. I'm consistently profitable. I still have a full-time job (a better one now). The centerpiece of that checklist is something most retail traders have never heard of. It's called GEX - Gamma Exposure. Every time you buy an options contract, someone has to be on the other side of that trade. That someone is almost always a market maker - firms like Citadel, SIG, Wolverine. They don't want directional risk. They just want to collect the spread. So the moment they sell you that contract, they immediately go into the market and hedge their position by buying or selling the underlying shares. That hedging is not optional. They have to do it. Continuously. All day long. As price moves. At certain price levels there is a massive concentration of forced buying or forced selling from those dealers. Price reacts to those levels because dealers are mechanically obligated to transact there. That's a GEX level. Not a line you drew on a chart. Not a pattern you spotted. A level backed by real institutional positioning data. I pull the GEX map every single morning using @ITMatrixHQ before I open a single chart. It shows me exactly where the major levels are, what kind of environment I'm trading in, and where the clean air is between levels. So instead of guessing where price might react - I know where it has to. Because it almost always behaves the exact same way! But GEX is only one piece of it. The checklist has four components total. And all four have to be green before I place a single trade. Miss one - I wait. That's what makes it an A+ setup. I used it to turn $1,000 into $21,000, and I consistently collect around 5k every month from trading alone! If all this sounds complicated, watch the video below. The checklist is FREE btw - I recently turned it into a web app find it in the comments below ↓
