Successful trading isn't about chasing moves—it's about anticipation and precision. Every setup requires meticulous preparation, typically sketched out days before execution. This means deep analysis, scenario planning, respect for market dynamics, and letting price action confirm your thesis.
The real edge? Staying one step ahead. Not in prediction, but in preparation. You study the patterns, identify key levels, anticipate the scenarios. Then you wait. When the market moves, you're already positioned, already informed, already ahead.
That's what separates traders from speculators. It's the difference between reactive and proactive. Between hoping and knowing.

Getting ahead of the game is truly brilliant. That's exactly how I do it. By the time the market moves, I've already won.

A prepared order is a winner; just wait for the market to come to you... This is the difference between top traders and rookies.

That's right, most people are just too greedy. They see the market moving and want to rush in, only to get slapped in the face.

That's right, which is why I'm still broke haha. The preparation wasn't thorough enough.

To be honest, this theory sounds great, but in practice? Most people still get pulled in by their emotions.

That's right, that's the logic. Most people are still chasing highs and selling lows, but I've already planned the scenario.

That's true, but most people still can't resist the urge and have to chase the market trends.

There's nothing wrong with that, but most people still can't control their hands and want to rush in when they see prices going up.
