Some weeks, the best trade you’ll ever take… is no trade at all. When the Federal Funds Rate decision rolls around, the entire market is buzzing with anticipation. Price action gets funky, volatility spikes out of nowhere, and every candle feels like it’s trying to bait you into making a move. But here’s the truth: this isn’t the week to prove you’re a hero. It’s the week to prove you’ve got patience. 👉 The buildup to FOMC is full of noise. 👉 The decision itself brings whipsaw chaos. 👉 The aftermath is where clarity and opportunity finally return. Smart traders know this. They wait. They protect their capital while others chase ghosts. They let the gamblers fight in the mud while they stay clean, calm, and ready. Remember, trading isn’t about being the most active, it’s about being the most selective. The sidelines aren’t a place of fear. They’re a place of strength. By sitting out the storm, you keep your focus, your capital, and your confidence intact for the moments that truly matter. 🚀 Patience is what separates professionals from amateurs. Let the storm pass. When the dust settles, you’ll still be standing, ready to strike when the odds are back in your favor. — Coach Stephen

I passed 5 combines today. The information available in this group is invaluable. I hope everyone takes the time to apply what they’re learning and continue to ask questions. 💎

I’ve spent years building businesses and investing across different spaces. Now I’m leaning into trading, not just for returns, but for the challenge, the strategy, and the community. I’ve got capital to work with, but I’m here to learn from people who’ve sharpened their edge and built systems that actually perform. Looking forward to connecting, sharing, and growing together. Let’s make it count.
