I was teaching a trader boot camp recently when a trader asked how I would have traded tlle prior day. I responded that the prior session was one of the easiest days to trade. The market gapped up at tlle open and trended higher tllroughout the session, making it easy to buy and hold tllroughout tlle day, or buy tlle pull-backs along tlle way. He wasn't so impressed with my answer. "That's easy to say now, since you have hindsight, " he fired back. The response I gave him is the same that I will share with you right now. Every market day is unique, but it is a clone of a prior day in history. Technical analysis works because trader psychology, and human psychology for that matter, never changes. It has been the same since the first exchange opened its doors. However, most novice traders, and even experienced traders, do not make the correlation that every market day is a version of one tllat occurred in the past. As a matter of fact, many traders do not make this discovery for quite some time into their trading careers. But once they do, they begin to understand the market on an entirely different level, which allows tllem to anticipate market movement. Think about the first time you heard a new song. You like tlle beat and you relate to the lyrics, but they are completely new to you. However, once you've heard this song five or SL,{ times, or even one hundred times, every lyric, beat, and drum solo has become engrained in your brain. You can anticipate the chorus and tlle upcoming instrumental solo. You can even identify the song by hearing a two-second snippet. Trading is no different. Once you've mastered the types of trading days that occur in the market, you will be able to anticipate reversals, breakouts, and even stalled markets with a high level of accuracy and authority. Trading is a game oj repetitions. Traders that can consistently trade the best repetitions are those that have mastered the markets. Some highly successful traders will exclusively trade one or two setups, but they will continuously pound tllese setups with big volume and make a killing in the market. Trading doesn't have to be difficult. Like most tllings in life, trading can be as easy or as difficult as you make it. It can be as stressful or stress free as you make
