Most people think the moves at the close are random. They aren’t, and I’ve got seven minutes of tape that proves it. Two weeks ago, with about ten minutes left in the day, Mark called out a put for a nickel. Then something hit the tape that we hadn’t seen in forever, and those puts went from 10 points out of the money to at the money before I could get my own order in. People in the room were calling out fills faster than I could read them. 260%. 400%. One guy got in at a dime and out at 58, that’s 480%, in about the time it takes to make a sandwich. I clipped the whole thing. What Mark saw, what he said, what the number was, and the exact second it hit. Watch it here Then do this. The last hour is where I make my best

Mark hates trading Apple. If you’ve ever heard him talk about it, you know I’m not exaggerating. So today I’m on with him going through charts, and he says, out loud, that he’s getting a signal to buy Apple. And I’m like, you? Apple? And he’s like, I know, I know, but it’s there.

It’s not a strategy, it’s not a setup, and you won’t find it on a chart. Once you see it, you’ll start catching yourself breaking

Mark asked me on air yesterday what levels I'm watching. Everybody asks that. What's your number, where's support, what's the line. And I get it, because a number feels like a plan. But I don't really look at levels, and I told him that on live TV. I look at where we are in the chart. Not what price we're at, where we are. That's the difference between a trader who panics every time the market dips and a trader who knows which dips matter. There's one question I ask about any chart before I decide whether to worry, and it isn't a price. It's the reason I didn't panic on Monday and the reason I'm not chasing this week, and once you have it, you stop freaking out on the days you shouldn't and start paying attention on the days you should. Here's the question. Where is price sitting
