One bad trade can hurt. Revenge trading can end your career. In today's episode, we tackle a powerful viewer question about revenge trading—why it happens, how it sneaks into even experienced traders' decision-making, and why it's one of the fastest ways to blow up an account. I'll share personal experiences from my own trading journey and walk through a real trade sequence that completely destroyed a trader's account, step by step. This isn't about shaming mistakes—it's about understanding the psychology behind them and building rules that stop emotion from hijacking your process. We'll also zoom out and assess the current market landscape, highlighting where real trading opportunities exist and where traders are most likely to get themselves into trouble. If you've ever felt the urge to "get it back," this episode is for you. Listen now:

Things escalated fast. After yesterday's discussion, the crypto market didn't just weaken—it collapsed. In today's episode, we revisit the crypto narrative in light of a massive, broad-based selloff across digital assets and ask the question everyone wants answered: How much lower can this go? I'll break down what changed, what didn't, and how professionals frame downside risk when panic starts to creep in. I'll also give honest updates on my own positions, which took a real beating over the last few days—what I adjusted, what I held, and what I learned in real time. We'll wrap up with a look at earnings from Amazon, and why their results matter for tech sentiment and the broader market right now. This is not theory. This is trading in the middle of a storm. Listen now:

The tone in crypto has shifted—and viewers are feeling it. In today's episode, we address the growing concern around digital assets and the question I'm getting asked most right now: Is this crypto selloff just a pause… or something more serious? I'll answer a few key viewer questions about the current crypto market mood, what weakness really means at this stage of the cycle, and how to think about risk when sentiment turns sour. Then we'll zoom out to the broader markets, breaking down earnings from Alphabet and how they fit into the wider market weakness showing up across equities.

No hindsight gymnastics. Just real execution, real emotion, and real consequences. That experience leads to a critical question every trader eventually faces: What should you do when you mess up a trade? Panic? Freeze? Double down? Or step back and fix the process? I'll walk you through how I think about trade mistakes, how professionals manage damage control, and how to turn a bad decision into a long-term edge instead of a confidence killer.

The numbers are in—and on the surface, they look great. In today's episode, we break down the latest macroeconomic data that's painting a surprisingly rosy picture for the financial markets. Strong growth signals, cooling pressures, and data that seems to support risk-on behavior… but is it really that simple? The big question: Does this wave of positive data influence policy at the upcoming meeting of the Federal Reserve? We'll dig into how the Fed interprets macro data, what actually matters versus what just makes headlines, and whether this "data delight" gives policymakers cover to pause, cut, or stay cautious. If you trade macro, rates, or equities, this episode helps you separate optimism from reality. Listen now:

This week was packed with market-moving headlines—and plenty of uncertainty.

We'll also dig into Donald Trump's renewed tariff threats, how markets are pricing in trade risk, and why these policy signals matter more than most headlines suggest. On top of that, we'll look ahead to upcoming interest-rate decisions from the Federal Reserve, and how traders should be preparing as macro pressure builds.

If you care about macro trends, intermarket analysis, and staying ahead of the curve, this is a must-listen episode. Listen now:

The latest GDP report is in—and on the surface, it looks impressive. Strong consumer spending, rising corporate profits, and headlines that suggest the economy is firing on all cylinders.

What happens when the stock market never really sleeps? In today's episode, we break down the latest proposal to move U.S. equity markets to 23 hours of trading per day.
