I can’t believe this video is free. Unreal information that took him slot of time and experience. Good for him. He must have just made and can make so much money he passes it on for free. What a great guy and guy video. Download this and review it over and over and over. Hope you all keep a ton and your dreams come true! 🎉

Lance is very wise. Giving away knowledge it took him years to learn is understanding that Heaven rewards service like this with far more returns than just charging for it.

[@icedsolid]

As an active trader, it's worth pointing out that knowing the trend and knowing the timeframe of the trend are equally important. You can be trading on shorter timeframes 'counter-trend' to the primary trend on a larger timeframe, because the shorter term trend is different across the timeframes; As Lance mentioned, the trend can be strengthened by seeking confluences of matching trends on different timeframes where they are all in the same direction and this is not to be underestimated. I'm pointing this out because it's easy to start trading counter-trend on a shorter timeframe, then attempting to let the loss run to come good (negative cognitive bias) when in fact, you are now following the longer term trend which was never in your favour. Making these decisions on the fly without some kind of system or automation for each aspect of the trade makes things very complicated and prone to failure.

[@skyshark1954]

Great motivational start. Seeing those trophies 🏆

[@JavierPerez-em8cv]

Lance is incredible!! I have learned so much thanks to him!! Thank you for bringing him. I am truly amazed by the trade on WKHS, and I would like to ask him about the process of trading this breaking news. It seems like he takes the trade right from the beginning, in the first or second candle. How does he filter through so many news that come in for all the stocks in the market at every moment, read and interpret how bad it could be, and make the decision to take the trade so quickly? Were you already monitoring this stock for some reason (perhaps the significant drop it had that morning), and were you only paying attention to the news about this particular stock? Do you use any type of software that filters and classifies the type of news you want to find? Or is it purely a skill developed over time? Thank you again, Richard, for bringing Lance to this incredible interview!

[@KT-zx9jr]

Amazing content ! Loved the advanced trader idea of predicitibility in capitulation price action : if a stock has demonstrated a smooth uptrend, then when the trend reverses, the initial phases of the downtrend most likely to be smooth and orderly.

[@leer.watson4673]

As much as I want to learn from people like this, it’s so hard not to be jealous of the success at such a young age. At 41, I feel like it’s too late to learn and maybe I should just stick to the 9 to 5 that I hate.

[@TraderLion]

It’s never too late!!

[@bdml77]

In reality, a lot of it does come down to luck and timing. The covid market minted many millionaires simply because it was a time when everything was pumping and breaking out to extreme highs. That's why more people than ever want to be traders, but you have to keep in mind that a lot of newer millionaire traders really did just get lucky. Not talking about longtime veterans like David Ryan etc

[@jawadkhudadad2482]

Thanks Richard, Lance is a beast

[@TraderLion]

He is!

[@abhishekartwani741]

Mostly when I enter a buy trade... I feel if I keep a small stop loss, it will be hit in volatility (I am talking abt index), so I kind of loose confidence and hence take small but give large, since by the time I realise I am wrong it is too late. Any solution for it ? (Apart from entering in the form of spreads)

Given reduced inflation signals and as the Federal Reserve has halted rate hikes, what are the best additions for a $500K portfolio to enhance the overall performance of my portfolio next year

[@AUstinnesc]

Look for stocks that have paid steady, increasing dividends for years (or decades), and have not cut their dividends even during recessions. Alternatively speaking to a certified market strategist can help with pointers on equities to acquire

[@sheltonPston]

True, some folks employ hedging strategies or devote a portion of their portfolio to defensive assets that perform well during market downturns and such pointers are provided by engaging the services of market experts just like i did in 2019, amid rona-outbreak, and as of today, i can boost of a 45% enhancement on my $1m portfolio after acquiring assets recommended by my advisor.

Please how do I find and contact this financial counselor ?

[@ronborkowski1721]

Wow just happened on this video one of the best I have seen from Lance on his style. I have been leaning toward this style myself. I see so many traders buying toppy stocks. When you think about it his style is actually more conservative as long as you wait for confirmation.

He sure is

[@animalrave7167]

For any doubters of Lance all I can say is that there are no wanna-be guru's that go into that depth of analysis on their trades and setups and systems. He clearly knows what he's doing. I actually took a course from SMB several years ago. They are a legit prop firm. It helped me big time. That tsla countertrend trade at 46:29. 1)There was a huge gap to fill and realistically if it even just did a 25% fill. 2)Yeah the trend could have kept going down for tsla but the overall market sentiment at that time was still mostly bullish 3)when you get a stock of tsla's visibility and fan-boy status your far more likely to see dip buyers. 4)Also hitting a previous support zone. It isn't just one of those but the confluence of all those things together makes a better case.

[@supersatisfying359]

Great video. But I have one question; which no one seems to ask. What is he actually trading? Just Stocks or options?

[@sergiocay2k]

[@adriatic123]

The trend is the friend sure no big news here, but some big problems prevent traders from winning. 1) it's easy to spot trends backward, but you never know if the new move will become a new trend or if is it the start of the reversal. 2) Forex markets are so choppy and trend-less nowadays that having a good trend is so rare. Even though stock trends are rare, especially clear stock trends like AVGO and nVidia are very rare (less than 1%), all talk about trends as lifesavers. Life is not that easy. Btw this fine gentleman said don't go against the trend, and that's exactly what he did with SOS at 34:15 and especially SI at 35:08, this was very risky, almost like catching a falling knife. Because strong downward momentum was present and probability was on the downside, no chance to tell whether would be the reversal or the false upwards breakout
