There was a USTA 4.5 tennis player I met at the Minervini Gala who lives in Puerto Rico. I'm sorry I forgot your name and don't think I got your contact info. If you see this send me a DM so we can set up a hit sometime.

Trading the System, Not the Noise If you’re glued to every word from a foreign minister or the latest Trump tweet, minute by minute, your position sizing is likely the problem. You're trading with more size than your nerves can handle, and the market's natural volatility is going to exploit that. I stopped chasing the news cycle a long time ago. Here is the reality of a systematic approach: - Do your homework: Do the deep market research upfront. - Set the trade: Buy the setup and hard-code your stops. - Trust the probabilities: Let the trade play out. If a random headline triggers your stop, that’s not a failure — it’s just the cost of doing business. In a long series of trades, one headline won't break you if you’ve systemized your execution. The "Golden Nugget" Trap Most traders are consumed by the "need to know." They’re hunting for a secret detail or a bit of macro insight they think will give them an edge that price won't. It’s a cycle that eats your life. Eventually, every successful trader goes through the same journey: moving from heavy tracking to a mindset of "it is what it is." You do the preparation, you manage the risk, and you let the situation take care of itself rather than "monitoring the situation". At the end of the day, price is the only truth. Let it do the work.

Ariel Hernandez started trading in May 2020 without knowing absolutely nothing about it. Eighteen months later, he managed to turn $100,000 into over $3 million, and then got kicked out by his broker for being too good at extracting liquidity from them. After that, Ariel rebuilt from scratch, went through the brutal 2022 bear market as a long-only trader who didn't know how to short, took a huge drawdown on a single oversized uranium position, and came out the other side as one of the most consistently sharp momentum traders posting publicly on X today. If you follow him, you already know. The pre-market and post-market lives have been part of my daily routine for months now as his ability to synthesize themes, identify group strength in real time, and walk through charts with encyclopedic fluency is genuinely unlike anything else available for free on this platform. And if you somehow still don't know him for the trading, you almost certainly know him for the daily memes. This interview with @RichardMoglen on the @TraderLion podcast is the most complete breakdown of his process I've seen in one place - the philosophy, the setups, the entries, the sell rules, and the mistakes he paid real tuition to learn. I took more notes on this one than almost anything I've watched this year. Here's what stayed with me most. 1. Group strength is the real edge: everything else is secondary. Half of a stock's price appreciation is directly correlated to the group it lives in. A mediocre setup in the best group will outperform a perfect setup in a lagging group almost every single time, because institutions move sectors together. The energy names in January 2022, the semiconductors in 2023, the cybersecurity names in the most recent cycle - every time, the charts looked identical across the entire group. That's accumulation happening in real time and the practical implication is straightforward: focus on stocks in the top groups, look for multiple names within that group setting up with similar patterns, and treat the group strength as the primary filter before any individual setup analysis begins. When one name looks great in isolation, that's interesting. When five names in the same group all look identical and are all acting well simultaneously, that's a signal worth betting on. 2. When the market is going down, don't trade relative strength. Just track it. This is one of the cleanest tactical rules in the entire interview. Ariel's process is explicit: when the market is pulling back, he identifies the names holding up best and simply watches them. He doesn't buy them yet, he only tracks them. Then, the moment the market confirms a push higher, those names are his first targets because they've already demonstrated the behavior that makes a follow-through worth trusting. The beach ball analogy captures it perfectly: the strongest stocks are the ones being held underwater by the market, and the second the pressure comes off, they're the first to breach the surface. $NFLX, $CRWD, $PLTR, $HOOD every one of them reclaimed their March/25 lows almost immediately while the broader market was still imploding. That behavior during weakness is the signal, and you only see it if you're watching the price action closely instead of trading. 3. Being early is being wrong, and oversizing a conviction trade is the fastest way to blow up a great thesis. The $CCJ trade is the most honest and painful moment in the entire interview. Ariel had a legitimate thesis on uranium: nuclear energy as the backbone of an electric future, Cameco as the largest publicly traded producer, and he was eventually right about it. The stock did exactly what he thought it would. But he went in massively oversized, without a clean technical setup, below key moving averages, and got hit by a gap down offering that wiped out 15% of his portfolio in a single session. The lesson he took from it is precise: when you're early, you're wrong. The chart tells you when the time is right, and the time is right when the stock is above the 50-day, building tight technical structure, with the group acting in unison. Remember: a correct thesis executed improperly is still a loss. And a loss that size requires months of excellent trading just to break even, which means months of progress converted into recovery instead of compounding. 4. The high volume close is one of the cleanest and most underutilized setups in momentum trading. Ariel walks through this in detail across multiple trades and the elegance of it is hard to overstate. When a stock gaps up on earnings and closes on massive volume near the highs of the day, that closing price becomes the line in the sand. The next morning, the setup is simple: good above that level, bad below. You don't buy it unless it's moving through that level with follow-through. If it gaps down slightly and reclaims it with a ramp, that's even better as you're buying off support with confirmation. If it can't breach the level at all, you do nothing. The beauty is that the rule eliminates all ambiguity. There's no judgment call about whether the setup is working. Either the stock is above the close or it isn't, and either it's moving through with power or it isn't. For a trader who knows he's prone to clicking the button too much, a setup this binary is exactly the kind of governor that keeps the process clean. 5. Your best trades work right away: use that information aggressively. Ariel's average holding duration for a winner is eight days. For a loser, however, it's less than 24 hours. That asymmetry is the result of a consistently applied rule: if a stock isn't showing strength from the entry almost immediately, something is off. The best horses don't return to the starting gate. When a stock breaks out over prior day high with volume and immediately pushes away from the average, that's the trade working. When it struggles to hold the level, churns, or fades on you in the first session, that's information - and the correct response is to cut it quickly, preserve the capital, and move to the next setup. The trades that require patience and conviction to hold through pain are almost always the ones that drain the account slowly. On the other hand, the ones that work immediately are the ones worth building size into and staying patient with. 6. Trim into strength continuously, and cut your weeds to water your flowers. Ariel is explicit that he never lets himself get stubborn about a position when a cleaner opportunity appears elsewhere. As the portfolio fills up and better setups emerge, the slowest and most extended names get trimmed to free up capital for the younger, faster, growthier ones. His rule for trimming extended positions is mechanical: once a stock gets beyond a certain multiple of its average true range above the 50-day moving average, he starts peeling off in increments regardless of how much he likes the name. He also describes the flip side of this clearly through the $CRWD example, where he added shares into a squat, watched the stock frustrate him for weeks while other names ran, and eventually exited a position he had managed well initially by overriding his own sell rules. Cut the weeds, water the flowers. The capital sitting in a lagging position that's just chopping is capital that could be deployed in the name that's actually moving. That reallocation discipline, applied consistently, is what keeps the portfolio positioned in the right names at the right time across every market cycle. These were just some of the notes I took from the interview. If you don't follow Ariel on X already, do it now @RealSimpleAriel. I can guarantee you that pre and post-market lives alone are worth showing up for every single day. youtube.com/watch?v=Nq-p7B…

"Yesterday we talked about the mindset of a consistent winner and the rules you have to follow to be successful. There's nothing complicated about those rules. Cut losses quickly, let winners run, add to winners not losers, trade in line with the market, don't over concentrate, pre-define your risk and so on and so forth. It's one thing to know the rules, it's another thing entirely to follow them, religiously, on every trade. The interesting thing about trading is you can follow the rules perfectly 99x in a row and have huge success, but on the 100th trade if you violate 1 or more rules with a big position you can unravel all your previous success in virtually no time at all. 99 good decisions wiped out with one really bad one. No different from a recovering alcoholic having one drink after 20 years of sobriety and starting all over again." - Charles Harris "Trader's Journey Part 1"

Trump going from Venezuela to Iran is basically like me trading. Venezuela? Perfect setup, worked but I sized too small. Next trade? I am euphoric, I go 10x size on a shitty setup: Iran. It goes wrong. But I am trapped, keep adding size and blame the market for being wrong.
