A very shitty week in small caps for me. Thankfully, I’ve cut size so much that I’m still up a decent amount YTD. What’s most concerning is that the broader market was weak, and that’s usually when I do well. Clearly there are other factors at play now. I have a theory. On top of the usual Chinese and domestic riggers, we’re also seeing a real scalping renaissance. Some htb brokers seem to have figured out that by offering near-zero commissions to hyperactive traders, they can still make plenty overall without relying on PFOF. Now every dip gets bought by both short scalpers covering and long scalpers chasing. Nothing fades anymore.

Reviewing a month where opportunity and preparation met. Took 1000 trades for 100k then less than 200 for 624k month. Preparation, discipline, patience all meet the right market. youtu.be/GKYZSdBneVk?si…
