7 Japanese Philosophies that will improve your life and TRADING:

It did for me tremendously.
1) Ikigai - This framework inspired me to pass up on Columbia Dental School for money management and finance Image
2) Shikita ga nai Image
3) Wabi-Sabi Image
4) Gaman Image
5) Oubaitori Image
6) Kaizen Image
7) Shu-Ha-Ri ImageImage
My masters include the individuals in the following tweet. I would also include new ones: @dvandenbord @the_optionator @1charts6. Like the concept above “when the student is ready, the teacher will appear”
Finally, I would highly check out the book Ikigai as I attribute my courage to give up on my last 4 years of work in college for another path. Image

@dryan310 is regarded as one of the best stock trader’s of all time, but he does not have a book nor has he taught a course. I have watched all of his @IBDinvestors highlights and videos and created a David Ryan mini course.

5000 followers! Thank you everyone for the support.

I started trading stocks when I was 19 years old.

If I were to start all over again, here are 19 pieces of wisdom I would tell my 19 year old self:
1. ALWAYS think risk-first

If you lose all your chips you can’t bet.

If you can’t bet, you can’t make money.
2. It is a probabilities game

Losses are inevitable.

It is about cutting your losers and holding onto your winners. If you expect to gain more than you lose, the law of large numbers will be in your favor.

You will eventually win and make money.

Everything I look at during my weekend process to gauge a sense of market direction and its breadth: 🔽 🔽🧵

Share🔁
1. @IBDinvestors newspaper Look at the #IBD50, IPOs, Stock Spotlight, General Market Trend and A/D line.

If any news headlines catch my eye related to any of the stocks that I own or am watching, I will read through them.
2. Stage Analysis of Charts of Market Averages.

I personally use @MarketSmith, but any stock chart service will do. I focus on the S&P500, NASDAQ and Russell2000

For more info about Stage Analysis check out @TraderLion_ @StanWeinstein13 partnered masterclass.

Top Lessons of Market Wizard Ed Seykota:

He kept it sweet and simple.
