So many people are CRUSHING the markets right now and making lots of money! At the same time, far more traders are gripped with fear and struggling just to break even….The difference? Confidence and consistency.

As you know, you build both when you understand the best times of the day to trade and how to avoid the common mistakes and “hidden” pitfalls that prevent consistent profits.

Members of my service as well as long time readers know that I do a lot of analysis based on the past. I am constantly looking at long term historical price charts and data. As a trader, I am always looking for an edge.

Over the weekend I had an interesting conversation with a local trader. We typically meet a few times a year to share our market outlooks, new trading tools and techniques, and usually finish our session off in a debate about the US market manipulation and how to trade around it.
