No matter how technical of a trader you are, never ignore the fundamental narrative. It’s your true edge in the market.

The fundamental narrative guides you to trade in the direction of smart money and institutional order flow, aligning your technicals with the real forces driving price.

If you want to become a better trader, become dumber

Most failing traders are failing because they’re trying too hard to be smart

They over-complicate the process and try to find the ‘secret formula’ to profitability when it doesn’t exist

Meanwhile the dumber guys just find a strategy that works, backtest it and then just follow a simple trading system no matter what

THOSE are the guys that make money trading

Stop trying to be so smart

Dumb it down and watch the results you get

Global Market Summary

• Global Equities: September was a rewarding month for global equity investors with solid gains. However, the year-to-date narrative shows Asia Pacific and European equities ceding leadership to the US in recent months.

• Europe: The Euro Stoxx 50 rose, supported by technology stocks and expectations for lower US borrowing costs. The European Central Bank (ECB) held its policy rates steady at 2%, with little expectation for further cuts this year as euro-area inflation is at the 2% target.

• Bonds/Fixed Income: Bond markets saw a rally with the 10-year Treasury yield falling from 4.23% to 4.16%, driven by the weak US labor market data, which reinforces the case for monetary easing.

• Oil: West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil dropped over 7% after OPEC+ signaled a plan to boost production in November.

Sometimes, the best move is to disappear for a while and build in silence.
