Have you ever gotten lost?
Not just a little bit lost, but truly lost?
That happened to a family in Massachusetts a few years ago. They ventured into a corn maze just before dusk. They wandered for hours, as the maze twisted and turned.
As darkness engulfed them, despair took over, and they called 911.
Help arrived quickly, and guess what?
They were only 25 feet from the exit – they almost made it out on their own, but they lost faith, right at the brink of success.
That story got me thinking about trading.
Navigating the trading “maze” can feel like you’re stuck in a loop of false starts and stops. Each wrong turn can eat into your confidence—and you never really know how close you are to success.
But what if there was an actual map to guide you?
To help you navigate the monstrous market maze with more confidence. No more random lefts, rights or U-turns. Just moving with purpose and direction.
My Hedge Fund team and I attempted that in the Index markets a while ago.
We wanted to fully understand the twists and turns of the Indices, so we could build better strategies. We collected thousands of data points for deep analysis. We even built a new modeling tool called The Index Mastery Wizard to analyze the data visually.
And what we found was a-maze-ing, for example…
- we found specific times in the index markets to avoid and which are the most profitable,
- we uncovered an index market with bearish tendencies which is great for building short strategies (usually difficult to do in the index markets),
- we discovered a bunch of other profitable tendencies in the index markets we’ve never seen discussed before,
- plus, we now have a proven process for other markets, you just need the data.
It’s like having a GPS in the maze of the markets.
No more hesitating at every turn, wondering if it’s the right path. We now have a guide to follow.
So, if you’re struggling to build strategies in a specific market, or you just want to build better strategies, try creating a “map” to better understand the characteristics of that market.
You may uncover shortcuts to turn those market twists into profits.
