Scalping, Day Trading & Futures
Trading CME futures is approached here without pretense or easy promises. Scalping, day trading, the order book, market structure, and Stoic psychology: the goal is to build a discipline that lasts, session after session.
This central section gathers all dimensions of my active trading journey since 1994. From daily market session analysis before the US open to commented replays in Inside the Trade, alongside technical analysis (classical and Smart Money Concepts) and intellectual self-defense against cognitive biases.
I share my trading method, refined over more than three decades on US indices (Nasdaq, S&P 500, Dow Jones, Russell 2000), crude oil, and gold: an exacting craft where risk management and mental mastery matter far more than finding a miracle indicator.

One of the most important rules in trading is knowing how to control your losses and to keep pace with events. This is what generally makes the difference between a losing trader and a winning trader in the short, medium and especially long term. Cut your trading losses or you are doomed On my site's […]
I have applied this rule for a few years, and coincidence or not, I have become a winning trader by applying it. I am not sure that this rule could apply to everyone. In my opinion this depends on each individual's personality and psychology. In my case, it has enabled me not to be easily […]
Trading is the most difficult and exhausting activity that I have ever practised. I have "been around the block"; I have been an IT engineer, an adult educator, a University professor, passing through less intellectual jobs such as farm labourer, market tradesman and I could go on. None of my previous experiences prepared me for the […]

Of course, we will always be at the mercy of financial market quotes completely stopping, an internal problem for the broker ... but that leaves traders completely powerless.
