2019 is now fully underway, and I hope you’re making the most of it while staying committed to those New Year’s trading resolutions you set back on January 1st. Before we dive too deep into the year, I want to make sure you didn’t miss some of our top posts from 2018.
Last year was incredible for me both professionally and personally. Every year, as I reflect on the trading ideas and strategies swirling in my mind, writing about them helps me grow as a trader. My goal is to share that knowledge with you as much as possible.
To help you catch up on the highlights from 2018 here at Learn To Trade The Market, I’m excited to present 12 standout posts from last year that you may have missed:

“1.Stop Chasing Money: The Key to Big Trading Wins”

The first post on our list was an article I wrote to show traders that fixating too much on the “money” and the “profits” is often the main reason many fail to succeed.
Instead, the focus should be on the process itself—the details of trading—and learning to genuinely enjoy that part. When you cultivate a love for discipline, patience, tracking your performance, and following a trading plan, the money naturally begins to follow.

2.”Three Essential Trading Strategies I Could Never Leave Behind”

This lesson was designed to show which trading strategies I would choose if I could only pick a few. In reality, you don’t need a long list—just a small set of strategies to enter the market at high-probability points.
The article had two main goals: to share some of my favorite price action trading strategies and to highlight that a trading strategy is more than just a “signal bar.” Elements like money management and trading timeframes are just as crucial as the entry signal—they’re all integral parts of your overall trading strategy.

3.“Watch Out for the Hidden Dangers in Trading”

This post was written to alert traders to the “snowball effect” of trading mistakes—or the Pandora’s box—that can easily be triggered in the trading world.
Once a trader starts trading too frequently, risking too much, or making other common errors, it often sets off a chain reaction that can quickly undo their progress and even wipe out their account. In this lesson, I share practical tips and strategies to help you avoid this major trading pitfall.
“4.Could Taking Only 4 Trades a Month Boost Your Results?”

In this lesson, I explore—and demonstrate with real examples—the power of a low-frequency trading approach.
The main reason most retail traders lose money is simple: they trade too much. Here, I show how taking just four trades a month can generate impressive returns, even if only half of them are winners—that’s just two winning trades! Chances are, many of you are trading far more than that each month and still aren’t seeing consistent profits. It’s time to ditch the stress and overthinking—follow the strategy outlined in this article to fast-track your trading success.

5.“If I Could Go Back: What I’d Teach Myself About Trading”

This lesson takes an in-depth look at some of the most valuable insights I’ve gained over 18 years of trading. By reading this post carefully, you can absorb years of hard-earned trading knowledge—lessons that cost me a great deal of time and money to learn.
Posts like this one help you drastically shorten your learning curve by condensing years of trial and error into a single, educational lesson.
“6.How Price Action Reveals Where the Money Flows”

In one of my most detailed posts on the power of price action, I explain how the charts tell a story—one you can learn to read with proper training and practice. This lesson teaches you to identify which price bars are meaningful and which can be ignored, as well as how to interpret their signals. With a solid foundation in price action trading, you’ll gain the skills to read the market like a pro.
“7.10,000 Times Practiced: How One Strategy Transforms Your Trading”

Bruce Lee once said, “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”
For traders, the lesson is clear: you become far more effective in the markets by mastering a few key skills rather than spreading yourself too thin. Most traders try to learn everything—indicators, gurus, forums, and strategies—and end up overwhelmed and lost in a sea of information. This article breaks down why that approach is counterproductive and why focusing on one strategy at a time is the smartest path to success.
8.Unlocking Price Action: 6 Tailed-Bar Candlestick Strategies”

The tails on candlestick bars—also called “shadows” or “wicks”—are incredibly important. I dedicated an entire lesson to them, which you can check out via the link below. But not all tailed bars are created equal. This lesson teaches you how to distinguish between them and how to trade them effectively.

“9.Mastering the Mental Game: Developing a Winning Trader’s Mindset”

A significant part of my professional trading course focuses on trader psychology, mindset, and self-discipline, because developing a winning mindset is one of the most crucial elements of successful trading—some would even argue it’s the single most important factor. This lesson will guide you on how to cultivate a mindset that consistently supports trading success:
“10.Confirm Daily Chart Signals with 1- and 4-Hour Time Frames”

If you’ve been following my blog, you know I’m a strong advocate for trading the daily chart, and I’ve written several articles on the topic. That said, I also use the 1-hour and 4-hour time frames, as I teach in my trading course. In this lesson, I provide a detailed look at how I incorporate these shorter time frames to confirm daily chart signals:
“11.Insider Methods: Trading Like a Hedge Fund Manager”

Some of you might disagree, but in all my years in business and financial markets, I’ve found this to hold true: to succeed, you often have to “fake it until you make it.” It may sound cliché, but it works. Here’s why: to achieve success in any field, you first have to truly believe you can, then follow that belief with unwavering commitment. This means creating a clear plan of action and executing it consistently, day by day.
A goal like “becoming a profitable trader” is meaningless without breaking it into concrete, actionable steps. Success is built from this process. It all starts by acting as if you’ve already achieved your goal and fully believing that you will—behave with the certainty that your success is inevitable.
“12.18 Years of Trading Wisdom: Top 10 Lessons Learned”

This post delivers exactly what the title promises: a list of the 10 most important lessons I’ve learned over 18 years in the markets. As I mentioned earlier, you have one of the best educational resources right in front of you—my insights. Whether you take my course or explore the free lessons, my goal is to share what I’ve learned so you can avoid losing the same time and money I did.
