Hello everyone! The year 2025 has finally begun. Thank you in advance for your continued support this year.
Please check last week's results! We were able to start 2025 with a fantastic beginning in the first week. The weekly return rate recorded an astonishing +201.79%. As seen in the graph, we achieved a stable increase, with particularly significant success in trading from the end of the year to the beginning of the year.
Compared to other major indices (S&P 500, Nikkei 225, NASDAQ Index), the performance is overwhelmingly strong, and we expect this to be the momentum for the whole year of 2025.
This year, I hope to seize more trading opportunities and accumulate profits. I also encourage everyone to make 2025 a profitable year!
Continue to carefully assess the market and trade strategically. Let's make it a wonderful year together!
Wishing you good trades!

Three years ago, I read Al Brooks' book. At that time, I had just started trading and had high expectations for this book, but honestly, I only understood about 50% of it. The candlestick chart, trend lines, breakout, and pullback analysis written in the book were very difficult for me, and there were many parts that I could not grasp no matter how many times I read them.
However, starting from last week, I began to read this book again. Over the past 3 years, I have gained practical trading experience and gradually become more accustomed to the market movements. And this time, as I reopened the pages, the parts I couldn't understand before remarkably made sense naturally. Especially, the detailed movements in price action and the explanation of market psychology were very insightful and convincing.
This book thoroughly explains about price action. Al Brooks carefully analyzes each candlestick for both trend continuation and reversal, and teaches how to decipher the 'language' of the market. What used to feel ambiguous about chart movements can now be logically understood, thanks to his approach of 'following each candlestick.'

When day trading, there is something important to keep in mind.
When you think 'this will go up' and decide to buy, there are always people who think 'no, it will go down' and decide to sell at the opposite side. That person may have similar knowledge and experience as you, or perhaps they are even better traders. In other words, no matter how confident you are, you need to be aware that the probability of success in trading is always around 50%.
That's why, in order to succeed as a day trader, it is important to not get too excited or upset about the results, calmly manage risks, and accumulate profits in the long run. It is more important to minimize losses and increase overall wins rather than winning each individual trade.
The market often exhibits unpredictable movements, which is a natural aspect of trading. Maintain a calm, non-overconfident, humble attitude, and strive to trade without being swayed by emotions. Above all, abide by your own rules and focus on what you can control. This is the best way to survive as a day trader.

After finishing today's trade, I realize once again that trading should be enjoyable. If every day is painful and full of stress, honestly, I don't think there is a need to continue. There are various jobs in the world, and there is no need to push yourself into a corner.

While living in asia, trading american stocks on a day trade basis, you will be surprised by how well they match.
During the day, focus on your main job, and trade when the market opens at night. Starting trading in a relaxed state after finishing work is very efficient.
Achieving a balance between work and investment, thanks to asia's time zone. There may be no more ideal environment than this.

This week, there were no particularly notable trades, but I was able to steadily increase my funds. The market was calm, with no major fluctuations, but I have been gradually accumulating profits by seizing small opportunities.
The new ski season will start soon, so I bought new goggles. I'm looking forward to the snow falling in Japan soon. I want to enjoy great skiing this season.

In this market, the return rate was +108.74% in one week, showing a significant performance. This result significantly exceeds the growth rates of indices such as S&P 500, nasdaq, and Nikkei 225 during the same period. For those who are looking to increase funds in a short period of time, day trading is a very effective method.
When the market is trending upwards, price movements become active, presenting an excellent opportunity for day traders. In such situations, even without a large amount of capital, it is possible to achieve high returns in a short period. Of course, there are risks involved, but by strategically holding positions and timing entries and exits effectively, you can aim for stable profits.
It is important to have your own trading strategy while aligning with the overall market trend. Especially in a bullish market, there is a chance to aim for returns greater than the indices by trading boldly. If you want to efficiently increase your funds, please consider day trading.

Even in american presidential elections, Mr. Trump's victory can be seen as a result of changing the course with his own beliefs, rather than just going with the flow of the times. Similarly, Mr. Elon Mask is creating a new era by sticking to his vision without being swayed by the times.
In trading as well, success comes from not simply following the market trends, but actively identifying opportunities on your own and taking proactive actions.

Lately, I often get asked by friends, 'How do you choose stocks for trading?' What I specifically emphasize is the volume, but not just the volume, the relative volume.
Relative volume is a very important indicator in day trading. It helps to easily identify attention-grabbing stocks with higher trading volumes than usual. These stocks tend to have larger price fluctuations, increasing the chances of making short-term profits.
In fact, today's trading has been particularly successful, as I achieved a record 73% profit for a single day since I started operating as a day trader! Thanks to paying attention to the relative volume, I was able to enter at the right timing. I hope this method can be helpful for all of you.
