Hello Fellow Trader,

I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to share some powerful insights about a concept that could dramatically improve your trading results.

The Myth of Market Uncertainty

We've all heard about the “uncertainty” of the markets. While there is indeed some uncertainty, the markets are far from random. If they were truly random, charts would look like scatterplots with dots everywhere. Instead, markets move with patterns and structure.

Why? Because markets are driven by people and computer programs—both following thinking patterns and logical progressions. This underlying order gives us our edge as traders.

Finding Windows of Predictability

Almost all trading strategies have been developed by observing repeated patterns in the markets:

• Head and shoulders patterns
• Candlestick formations
• Support and resistance levels
• And many more

These represent small windows of predictability we can capitalize on. Once initiated, patterns tend to play out unless disrupted by something else.

The Real Problem: You Might Be Adding Variables

Here's where things get interesting. While the market has its own variability, many traders unknowingly introduce additional variables into their trading process.

Remember this wisdom from W. Edwards Deming, the father of modern quality assurance: “If you can't define what you're doing as a process, you don't know what you're doing.”

This applies perfectly to trading.

The Path to Consistency

The secret to consistent profits is actually quite simple: reduce variables on your side of the equation.

The fewer variables in your trading process, the more consistent your results will be. When you're inconsistent in your approach—changing strategies frequently, moving stops emotionally, or entering trades without clear criteria—you're working against yourself.

In my years of quality assurance work before becoming a trader, I learned that consistency comes from eliminating variables and possible causes of inconsistency.

Your Trading Process Matters

You need more than just a strategy. You need a well-defined process for:

• Finding potential trades
• Determining market direction
• Establishing clear entry criteria
• Setting precise exit points
• Placing logical stop losses

By minimizing the variables in your approach, you create the conditions for predictable profits—even in a market with its own inherent variability.
