Even after more than 10 years in refining my trading skill, I firmly believe that I am still in the development stage to reach a higher level. A recent example that highlights the distinction between an exceptional trader like @Qullamaggie and a good trader lies in trade management with CVNA $Carvana Co.(CVNA)$ . The ability to exhibit strong conviction and intuition sets apart a great trader, while a good trader diligently follows their strategy day in and day out. I sniffed a trading opportunity in CVNA as early as April and have repeatedly mentioned it in my daily market diary. Over the past two months, I engaged in five long trades on this stock, resulting in a cumulative loss of -3.5R. On May 30th, I sized up my position but decided to close

From a yearly percentage return perspective 2021 has been a personal best for me. I’ve been actively involved in the markets since late 2009 / early 2010 and since then I’ve been continuously honing and improving upon what defines me as a trader.Previous to joining the Art of Trading I had tried a few other services with not much success. What I was really seeking was a mentor of sorts. Art of Trading ended up being what I was looking for. The reason I wanted to join was because I had already spent so much time on my own looking at one angle of the market that I thought it would be more productive if I was able to mimic the style of someone else and build off of it. My end goal was to be able to take everything I liked about Stewie’s swing trading (Art of Trading), and mesh it into my day

The Nasdaq Composite index$NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ rose 8.1% last week, for its biggest weekly percentage gain since March, while the S&P 500$S&P 500(.SPX)$  rose 5.9% and the Dow$DJIA(DJIA)$  added 4.15%. The main catalyst for the relief rally was the October CPI report, which came in better than expected and much better than feared. But the Fed is unlikely to be swayed by a single inflation print, and past rebounds fueled by Fed-related optimism have crumbled this year after discouraging economic data or pushback from policymakers. Moreover, inverted yield confirms that such a relief rally isn’t sustainable.In the coming week inves
