Stocks with breaking news priced at $200 or more will not attract enough retail trader demand to generate high trading volume.
"A stock that has breaking news but is $200 just won't have the demand that'll come in to create the high volume. It just won't happen."
Incorrect
Selling pressure will typically occur on recent IPOs after their 90-day or six-month lockout period for insiders expires.
"But then once that it's usually either 90 days or a six-month period comes up, then you'll see selling."
Correct
Increasing the quality threshold of stocks traded and reducing low-quality stock trades will lead to higher accuracy, improved profit/loss ratio, better consistency (more green days/weeks), increased self-confidence, higher risk tolerance, and ultimately more profit.
"And we'll eliminate them, a lot of them, by reducing uh by by improving your increasing your quality threshold and reducing the number of lowquality stocks you're trading. So now with higher accuracy and a better profit loss ratio, you're going to have improved consistency, which means more green days and more green weeks. And what does that create? That creates a track record of profitability, which creates higher self-confidence, which means you feel confident taking more risk, which means you're going to make more money."

Low-priced stocks frequently demonstrate predictable price action around half-dollar and whole-dollar levels, often pulling back at these points before attempting to break through them.
"These stocks trade with respect to the half dollars and whole dollars. So boom, right into the half dollar or a whole dollar pulling back and then we look for the break through that level. This is predictable."
Correct
Trading setups with a negative MACD and high-volume selling will not be profitable.
"MACD is negative right down there. This setup's not going to work. So, I already know it's not going to work because I see the position of the MACD higher volume selling right here. This is not going to work."
Pending
Implementing the Icebreaker strategy (starting with quarter size) will result in daily losses on 'cold days' being reduced to 25% of what they would be with full position size.
"So on the cold days, I start with quarter size. I never hit the thousand goal, so I never size up. I don't expose myself to high risk, and so I lose money, but only at the rate of 25% of full size. So suddenly, my red days are now one quarter in size."
Pending
A trader consistently maintaining 70% accuracy and a 2:1 profit/loss ratio can always recover to a green (profitable) day by taking at least 10 trades, assuming a sufficient number of high-quality setups are available.
"If I can always maintain 70% accuracy with a 2:1 profit loss ratio, as long as I can take 10 more trades every day, I could always recover to being green unless I run out of a quality setups to trade."
Pending
An identical positive news headline that would cause a stock to surge 300% in a 'hot market' will result in minimal price movement for the same stock in a 'cold market'.
"the same exact headline that would have sent a stock up 300% in a hot market, in a cold market, the stock barely moves. It's it's really amazing how that can happen."
Correct
Beginner traders are likely to learn the lesson of adapting to market conditions the hard way, by incurring more losses than desired during cold markets before realizing they should have stopped trading sooner.
"It's a really important lesson to learn and something that you'll probably learn a little bit the hard way by losing more than you you'd like to during a cold market and realizing I should have just stopped sooner."
Correct
The speaker predicts he will pay zero income tax on his $5 million trading profits for the year.
"I'm up over $5 million on the year. And you might think, Ross, your tax bill is going to be unreal. I will pay zero income tax on those gains."
Pending
Failing to account for wash sales will result in an increased taxable gain beyond the actual net profit realized from trading.
"And so the result is that it'll increase your taxable gain beyond the amount that you actually made."
Correct
Without mark-to-market accounting, traders will only be able to deduct $3,000 in capital losses per year against income and may end up owing more tax than their actual net profit.
"But if you didn't do marktomarket accounting, then you'd only be able to write off the $3,000 and you'd have to carry it forward for years and years to write it off. It would mean you would owe more tax than you actually made in in in net profit."
Correct
Starting with a $5,000 Roth IRA and consistently adding $2,500 a month from trading profits, then reinvesting excess profit in a 60% stock/40% bond portfolio, will result in $1.5 million over 20 years.
"If you started trading right now in a $5,000 um Roth IRA and you were able to grow the account by $2,500 a month just over the course of 20 years um if you were consistently adding to that account the 2500 a month through trading profits and then you were reinvesting the excess profit in uh in 50 in 60% bonds and 40 sorry 60% stock and 40% bonds over the course of 20 years you'd have 1.5 million"
