Adapting to differences in price action. High probability or coin flip? by John Grady

Here’s the recording from Wednesday’s webinar from John Gradry. It’s a great presentation and very much along the lines of the discussions we recently had in our recent break out sessions on assessing your strategy. That whatever you do – the market will make it not work if you don’t stay flexible. If you are playing every day the same way or expecting profits to be a steady curve, this is really worth a watch.

In this presentation, John discussed anticipating movement based on the speed of transactions.
– Understanding the “domino effect”
– All days are not the same
– The importance of waiting for your spot
– Increasing size during ideal conditions
– Long term thinking & the bottom line

Great Q&A at the end too – enjoy the video.
