How I Turned a Losing Streak Into My Best Week of the Year

Hello traders,

Let me be real with you. A few months ago, I had three losing days back-to-back. Nothing catastrophic, but enough to sting. You know that feeling when the market just seems to be a step ahead of you? That was me.

Now, here’s where most traders blow up: they chase it.
They double size, they force trades, they try to “win it back.” I’ve been there before, and it never ends well. This time, I did something different.

I went small. Tiny size. So small it almost felt silly. One contract on ES. My only job wasn’t to make money, it was to get back in sync with the market. To see the flow again. To rebuild trust with myself.

And guess what?
By day four, I started stringing together wins. Nothing flashy, but consistent. By the end of the week, not only had I recovered the losses, I finished positive, because I gave myself the space to reset instead of blowing myself up.

Inside my mentorship exclusive program, I break down trades and I explain the technicals behind them so that you fully understand what the markets are doing.
We trade live together, you see exactly what I’m looking at, and more importantly, you learn how to think like a professional. No gimmicks. Just process, execution, and continuous improvement.

Here’s the point: losses aren’t the enemy. Losing focus is.

This bounce looks clean, but underneath, it’s all positioning, not conviction. This is how I trade when sentiment runs hot but structure hasn’t confirmed the story.

Every trader goes through streaks where the market humbles them. 


What separates the pros from the amateurs is how you respond.

Next time you hit that rough patch, don’t fight the market. Scale down.
Focus on execution.
Trust will come back, and so will your edge.

If you’re ready to take the step and trade live with me, registration is open now for a limited number of people. 

See you in the next one.

When Central Banks Signal Stability

Hello traders, Last week, the ECB held rates steady at 2%. On the surface, that looks like a non-event. No fireworks, no shock. But in this market, “steady” is anything but boring. Stability from a central bank in 2025 is not passive, it’s a signal. Traders were leaning hard on the idea that cuts might …
