The Trading Desk

Macro is the edge.

Rates, liquidity, and the overnight tape decide the day. I read the board before the bell, and I'm building the playbook to teach how.

How I read the board.

The same operating system every session. Repeatable, written down, and the core of what the playbook will teach.

01

Macro read

Rates, bonds, liquidity, and the overnight session, before anyone's awake. What is actually driving risk today, not what the headlines say.

02

Levels & gamma

Where price reacts, and where the dealers are forced to hedge. The map of support, resistance, and the gamma flips that bend the tape.

03

The plan

Bias, triggers, and invalidation, written down before the bell. A long case, a short case, and the line that says I was wrong.

04

Execution & review

Trade the plan, not the feeling. Then grade every session against it, so the process compounds instead of the mistakes.
