Behind the Scenes: A Pro Trader’s Day-to-Day

José Ricaurte | July 19, 2021

Tons of people make a healthy full-time income — think six-figures — trading every day. That’s obvious.

But when you haven’t made all that much yourself, those peoples’ lives seem like a dream. You know those people exist, but that kind of lifestyle doesn’t seem like a reality to you.

It was the same way for me.

When I just started trading, I made some money, sure.

But earning a huge full-time income sounded unrealistic…

Even though I surrounded myself with people who did it.

So today, I wanted to make the trading lifestyle a little less of an abstract dream…

By bringing you behind the scenes of what I do every day.

 

A Brief Breakdown of My Average Day

I won’t get into my personal life, but rest assured, I live a relatively normal life. 

Anyways, I wake up before the European markets open. I want to be ready for anything, but I also have several things to do before the markets are open.

(Also, some context: I live in Europe, which makes waking up at this time easier).

First thing in the morning, I peek at the futures market a bit to see what’s going on. I don’t spend too much time here, but I keep my eye on a lot of things.

After checking out futures, I hop on calls with other professional traders around the world. 

See, you have to surround yourself with other high-performing peers in your field to continue climbing that ladder. Staying in touch with these traders lets me:

  • Talk shop
  • Share ideas (which ultimately helps me better understand my own trading strategy)
  • Learn from other traders
  • Just chat it up with some industry peers

I talked more about this in another post the other week.

Anyways, after saying goodbye to these other traders, I head over to the US markets and check out the premarket activity. I’ll review yesterday’s trades — or if it’s Monday, last week’s trades.

Oh, and if it’s earnings season: I’m looking at earnings at this time, too. Earnings are an exciting time because they create volatility. Volatility creates profit opportunities.

Once the US markets open, it’s simply a matter of monitoring and making trades. Not much else…

Well, except for one thing:

I closely watch the 1st hour and last half hour of the market.

Why?

Consider this: most average traders pay the most attention to the markets during the middle of the day. They’re tired in the morning and need that cup o’ Joe before looking at charts and reading news.

By the late afternoon, they’re tired again. They’ve been at it for nearly 8 hours. They’ve made their trades and are ready to relax and think about other things.

The big boys know this. 

And so they often make their biggest moves in the first hour and last half hour of the day. Fewer traders are paying attention, so institutions can take massive actions with minimal risk of being spotted.

I’ve even seen big-time disruptions in the last 5ish minutes before market close!

But what they don’t know is that I’m watching them like a hawk.

See, my Statistical Disruptive Flow system looks for large market disruptions (hence the name) just like these. Keeping an eye helps me provide the maximum possible value to my Profit Flow Group members…

And make myself some great money in the process.

Naturally, these two times of day can provide some excellent profit opportunities for PFG and me.

Anyways, I’m pretty tired once the US markets close. I’ve been up working for something like 10 hours at this point, so it’s relaxation time for me.

But speaking of Statistical Disruptive Flow and PFG…

As a PFG member, you could reap the rewards of my 10+ hour days without any hard work on your part. I do the analysis and send you an alert on trades with excellent potential…

You just follow my instructions.

These disruptions don’t just happen at the start and end of the days, either. They could form at any time.

So if you want to be ready to take advantage of these opportunities...

When you visit that link above, you’ll get a special training video where I explain my 3 Statistical Disruptive Flow criteria for screening trades, and you’ll see some of the amazing results it brought in the past.

It’s earned up to 900% returns in a single session. And recently, my members booked 100% and 400% gains on a couple of great trades.

So I hope to see you inside!

Yours for trading success,

All the best,

Earlier this week, I published a meaty blog post about the newest “precious metal” — lithium — and why I think it’s going to smash gold as an inflation hedge. In short: the EV revolution’s creating MASSIVE and growing lithium demand… Yet the supply might not meet that demand. There’s so much to unpack in […]

Hi there! Coach JR here with another coaching video. This time, we’re talking Tesla and a KEY price level it refuses to fall below. Since late October, Tesla’s closed above $1,000 every single trading day. Every. Single. Trading. Day. Makes sense — $1,000 is a huge level psychologically. Nice round 4-digit number. And with that […]

Gold. Everyone’s favorite hedge against doomsday. Pandemic? Gold goes up. Massive inflation? People run to gold. Geopolitical tensions? There’s gold, waiting for peoples’ money. Here’s the thing, though: We just had (and still have) a pandemic and massive inflation. Meanwhile, Russian troops are massing along the Ukraine border, and China’s getting aggressive about Taiwan. Yet… […]
