When the Best Trade Is No Trade

✔️ The telltale signs of when you SHOULDN'T trade...

✔️ Tips for avoiding overtrading and protecting your capital...

✔️ Plus, how an "Honest Crook" banked $647,00 in the last 12 months...

It's 9:30 a.m. Eastern. The market's open. You're at your desk, you've got your trading plan ... Ready, set, trade!


Wait, not so fast...


Being prepared is a good start. But smart trading isn't about entering positions left and right as soon as the market opens. 


Trading isn't something you do just because you can. You need to wait for the right opportunities. Some days, there simply aren't any good trades out there. 


There's a time to trade ... and there are plenty of times not to trade. 


You've always got to keep an eye on the market conditions and what the chart's telling you. When a black swan event happens, it might not be the best time to jump in.


The ideal way to trade? Have a plan ready, and only trade if it matches your trade thesis.

Options trading guru, Mark Croock took what he learned about penny stocks from Tim Sykes and used it in the "options" market.


He trades big companies like Tesla, Beyond Meat, Zoom, Apple, and Hertz for pennies on the dollar.


And he's made over $650k doing it.

When Not to Trade


The trades you don't make are just as important as the trades you do make.

 

By being selective, you can better ensure that you're focusing on the best setups — the ones with the most potential. 


This requires a mindset shift. Instead of focusing so much on growing your capital, you've gotta focus first on protecting your existing capital. You don't need to trade every day!


My friend and fellow millionaire trader* Tim Sykes has a saying: "Trade like a sniper."


Snipers can spend days waiting for the perfect shot. They'll stalk their target — they won't shoot unless the conditions are ideal. A sniper waits for the right moment to strike. They're patient.


That's the way you should trade. Think of the stocks on your focus list as your prey. Stalk them — wait for the market, the chart patterns, the risk, and the reward to all line up perfectly. Trade when the moment's right. 


If the moment isn't right? Don't strike. You might just dodge a bullet!  


Self-sufficient traders know that the best trades come from the best setups. Amazing setups don't present themselves every day.

Knowing When to Trade


When should you trade? 


Only when the stock falls into the criteria you set forth in your trading plan.


When the stars align, you want to be ready. But when it doesn't happen, you've gotta let it go.

 

Trading is a process. It's not about the individual results from any one trade. Instead, it's the culmination of many trades and always following a set of rules.


A well-crafted trading plan built on rules makes your life a lot easier. If the price point and conditions for entry are met, you enter the trade. If not, you don't. 


Always be prepared for the trade ... but also be prepared to make a quick exit if the trade moves against you. Once again, stick to the plan! If your thesis isn't working out, it's time to get out.

Building a Trading Plan


Trading is about making a plan ... then executing based on that plan. 

 

I teach my students the rules I've used to build trading plans. This is a process I've developed and refined over the past two decades. It's a great starting point — after all, it's part of the methodology that's made me millions.* 


Wanna know some basics? Let's go over an example of a trading plan. Note that this is just an example — the idea is to show you the components of a trading plan so you can get a better idea of how to build your own.  


If you're interested in learning directly from me, consider signing up for my profit lock system.


Sample Trading Plan

  1. Catalyst: Stock in a hot sector like electric vehicles with a new contract.

  2. Crossover: The 8-day simple moving average (SMA) crosses through the 20-day SMA

  3. Stop: 20-day SMA

  4. Profit target: 52-week high

  5. Risk/reward: The minimum risk to reward is 1:3

In this example, the first thing you're looking for is a catalyst, then the moving average crossover. Once the stock meets these basic parameters, that's when you're ready to look for an entry.


You should only enter the trade when you have the proper risk to reward — in this case, 1:3. The stop is the 20-day SMA and your profit target is the 52-week high. That means if you're $1 above the 20-day SMA, you need to be at least $3 below the 52-week high.


Once you've built the plan, your job is straightforward — follow the plan. Trade when things go according to plan. If not, don't trade. Simple as that.

Be Calculated...


New traders think that trading is about having good instincts or being able to predict the future.


Good news — that's not what trading is about. Trading is about making a plan and sticking to that plan. It's pretty simple.


If the parameters aren't met, your job is to do nothing. Don't try to force a trade for the sake of making a trade. Save your cash and wait for a better opportunity. 

 

Overtrading usually just leads to losses — don't do it! Stick to your plan and wait for the best setups.


Yes, that might mean you're not gonna be trading every day. That's perfectly fine. Slow but steady wins the race.


Have restraint,


Paul Scolardi
