Foundations

How markets move, how to read a chart, and how not to lose money while you learn. Everything here applies whether you trade shares, options or futures.

  1. · Before You Start How to use this book — and why the order of the modules matters.
  2. · The Basics, Before Module One The vocabulary and plumbing the rest of this book assumes you already have.
  3. 01 Mindset First: Psychology & Discipline Every other module in this book assumes you can already do this one. Most traders skip it. We won’t let you.
  4. 02 Risk Management The only module in this book that can single-handedly end your account if you skip it.
  5. 03 Market Structure & Trend Before you ask “should I buy this,” ask “what is this stock actually doing.”
  6. 04 The EMA Stack Three moving averages, one read on trend health.
  7. 05 Candlestick Fundamentals Every chart is a story told one candle at a time. Learn the alphabet before you read the sentence.
  8. 06 Volume Profile Where has the market already spent the most time transacting — and why does it matter now.
  9. 07 Volume & Price Analysis Volume is the fuel. Price is just where the fuel takes it.
  10. 08 Support & Resistance The two lines every trader draws first — and the most misused tool in trading.
  11. 09 Supply & Demand Zones Wider than a line, and built on unfinished business left behind by the last big move.
  12. 10 Bearish Chart Patterns Every tool in this book needs to work in both directions — down included.
  13. 11 Bullish Chart Patterns Six repeatable shapes price leaves behind before it continues or reverses higher.
  14. 12 Breakouts Volatility expansion is where the fastest, most profitable trades live — and where fakeouts punish the impatient.
  15. · Finding Candidates Five TradingView screeners that turn 5,000 tickers into a list you can actually work
  16. 13 Building Your Watchlist Strong names in strong sectors beat a perfect pattern on a weak stock, every time.

Options

From what a call is to which contract to buy. Nine modules, built for someone who has never placed an options trade.

  1. Options 01 Options 101 Calls, puts, strikes and expiration — the whole vocabulary in one module
  2. Options 02 Reading an Option Chain The screen where you actually pick a contract
  3. Options 03 What You're Actually Paying For Intrinsic and extrinsic value — the two halves of every premium
  4. Options 04 The Greeks Delta, gamma, theta and vega — four numbers that describe how a contract behaves
  5. Options 05 Implied Volatility & IV Crush Why your call lost money on a green day
  6. Options 06 Choosing the Right Contract You think it's going up. Which call do you buy?
  7. Options 07 Position Sizing for Options Where the risk rules from Module Two change shape
  8. Options 08 Managing an Options Trade The part with a clock running
  9. Options 09 One Complete Trade Idea to journal entry, every module in sequence

Advanced

Two modules that need everything above them first — what the options market expects, and what dealer positioning does to price.

  1. Advanced 01 The Expected Move What the options market thinks is going to happen
  2. Advanced 02 Gamma Exposure & Dealer Positioning Why price keeps stalling at the same round numbers — and who is forced to trade there.
  3. · Where to Go From Here The framework is the easy part. Repetition is the job.
