Hi Folks hope you are all doing well and having fun investing. If you think your ThinkorSwim charts are pretty ugly and not very clean looking, I agree. I came across a great video that guides you step-by-step how to set your charts up in ToS and make them clean and easy to read. This video is not another way to invest or a different investing strategy to our Rule #1 trading, it's simply a way to set up ToS and make your charting easier to see. It was helpful to me, hopefully you will find it useful as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyjRhCfhbT8

Two out of our three indicators (Moving Average and MACD) on the monthly $DJI have already turned red. The third (Stochastic) is rapidly trending in the same direction. We normally monitor these "Three Arrows" at month-end reveals where institutional "big money" is positioning. While a triple-red signal doesn't mean there's a market crash ahead, it's a defensive cue. You may consider to move your holdings—like those in your 401k, IRA, or Superannuation tied to broad indices like $SPX or $QQQ—into cash temporarily. And wait for the three Arrows to turn green before re-entering, which might give you bit peace of mind. This has nothing to do with our investment or option trading on individual companies, as we know how much they worth. Not financial advice.

Our Session 4 will start at 4:30 pm Sydney time this Sunday, Feb 22nd. On this Sunday: - We’ll begin with a review of all the Rule One option strategies we've learned so far. I’ve put them into a comparison chart for easier consumption. - Then, we'll move into the concept of standard credit spread options, but we will use them in a different way for much higher potential returns, which is called ROCS. This is one of my most lucrative strategies—it could be a very sharp weapon. - After that, we will briefly talk about some basics of charting - technical analysis part 1. - Toward the end, let's look at a few current investing/trading ideas (not financial advice) Make sure to review the previous sessions beforehand and bring your questions with you. See you there! Wendy

If you truly want to make serious money in the stock market over the long run — and if you really understand the big picture and believe in value investing methodology — then you must keep a beginner’s, empty-cup mindset. When learning anything, you need to unlearn your old habits and mindset first. Study the framework carefully, understand it deeply, and execute it exactly as designed. Don’t mix in random methods from other people along the way. There are plenty of YouTube channels teaching options, and every stock platform has opinions about what a company is “worth.” What you really don’t know is their time horizon, their thinking framework, their actual goals or if they are proven successful — are they looking at the next 10 days, 3 months, or 10 years? With different lenses and timelines, the conclusions can be completely different. And most of them are traders, not investors. If you keep absorbing scattered opinions from everywhere, you end up with a confused strategy and inconsistent actions. The usual result is either losing money — or making far less than you could have. Slow down. Ground yourself. Fully understand one coherent system, and then follow it with discipline. Your first six months are not about rushing to make big money. They are about building your system, your discipline, your mindset and your conviction. If you start off casually and loosely, you will drift off track very quickly.
