Live Trade Conference This Week! Thumbnail

Everyone always asks how I trade +100% stock spikes for a profit …

Like the 460%* spike from Quantum Biopharma Ltd. (NASDAQ: QNTM) last week after it announced the success of its Unbuzzd trial on February 4. And the news on February 6 that its licensee, Celly Nutrition Corporation (the company behind Unbuzzd) is exploring an initial public offering (IPO) due to its success.

I traded the spike twice.

Take a look at the chart below:

Here are my trade notes from QNTM:

I’ve been trading for over two decades.

And I use the same trading patterns over-and-over again.

It’s not just me … I have millionaire students that use the same patterns too.

Jack Kellogg is a shining example of the possibilities of a small account equipped with my trade patterns.

He started in 2017 with $7,500. And in 2025 he has recorded profits of $15.6 million (including losses).

Look at his profit chart below:

Here’s a trade that he made recently from the QNTM spike:

No … Jack and I aren’t special. We’re not geniuses. We weren’t born with millions of dollars.

We learned a specific process for profits and we clawed our way to millions of dollars in trading profits.

You could do this. But there are two important factors that could stand in your way:

  • Are you studying the right information?
  • Do you have enough discipline?

That’s it.

I can help you with the first bullet point. I’ve taught my trading process to over 30 millionaire students and many more profitable students …

A Disciplined Path To Profits

Everyone wants to know how my millionaire students and I stay profitable.

More Breaking News

And that’s what I try to teach you in my YouTube videos, these blogs, and my constant updates on X.

But the best way to learn is through LIVE instruction.

  • Students can watch the market in real time to see these plays set up.
  • They can ask questions to clarify parts of our patterns and trade processes.
  • Students get a sense of the mindset that a trader needs without the hindsight bias of reviewing past trades.

And this week, there’s a huge opportunity to learn my trading process live.

I’m holding a trade conference with some of my most successful millionaire students on February 12 and 13.

You’ll get to see the trading process I teach that’s created multiple millionaire traders!

Every nugget of information in the stock market acts as a puzzle piece. And traders need to learn enough about these setups so that they can complete the puzzle and gain independence as traders.

You can watch YouTube video after YouTube video … And read blog post after blog post …

Or you can join the LIVE conference this week and accelerate your learning curve!

Time is your greatest adversary right now. Especially during this 2025 market!

Every day that passes, you’re missing out on huge stock spikes. Like last Friday’s 180%* spike on Garden Stage Limited (NASDAQ: GISW).

Or the 130%* spike from Conduit Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CDT) the same day …

There are profit opportunities all over the place right now.

Stay up to date this week and keep track of the biggest runners every day.

I’ll see you on Wednesday for the trading conference and we’ll cover the hottest setups LIVE.

Cheers.

The available research on day trading suggests that most active traders lose money. Fees and overtrading are major contributors to these losses.

A 2000 study called “Trading is Hazardous to Your Wealth: The Common Stock Investment Performance of Individual Investors” evaluated 66,465 U.S. households that held stocks from 1991 to 1996. The households that traded most averaged an 11.4% annual return during a period where the overall market gained 17.9%. These lower returns were attributed to overconfidence.

A 2014 paper (revised 2019) titled “Learning Fast or Slow?” analyzed the complete transaction history of the Taiwan Stock Exchange between 1992 and 2006. It looked at the ongoing performance of day traders in this sample, and found that 97% of day traders can expect to lose money from trading, and more than 90% of all day trading volume can be traced to investors who predictably lose money. Additionally, it tied the behavior of gamblers and drivers who get more speeding tickets to overtrading, and cited studies showing that legalized gambling has an inverse effect on trading volume.

A 2019 research study (revised 2020) called “Day Trading for a Living?” observed 19,646 Brazilian futures contract traders who started day trading from 2013 to 2015, and recorded two years of their trading activity. The study authors found that 97% of traders with more than 300 days actively trading lost money, and only 1.1% earned more than the Brazilian minimum wage ($16 USD per day). They hypothesized that the greater returns shown in previous studies did not differentiate between frequent day traders and those who traded rarely, and that more frequent trading activity decreases the chance of profitability.

These studies show the wide variance of the available data on day trading profitability. One thing that seems clear from the research is that most day traders lose money .
