We’re STILL seeing giant Supernovas.
The moves are just insane.
On Monday, Zhengye Biotechnology Holding Limited (NASDAQ: ZYBT) did the seemingly impossible, going from $1 to the $11s…
On Tuesday, China Pharma Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: CPHI) went big and loose…
CPHI squeezed from $1 to $19+ before dropping back down to the $6s. Then, in after-hours trading it spiked again to the $16s before dropping back to the $8s.
The company’s toxic offering yesterday dropped it all the way back to the $1s.
I’m proud of so many students taking $1, $2, and even $3 per share on these.*
But I’m also concerned because some of them get SO angry when they sell too soon.
With that in mind, let’s put things into perspective (and see why I want to pull my hair out)…

Your Job Is To Grow Your Two Accounts
It makes me crazy.
Even when I repeat myself over and over and over again…
Some people come to trading thinking it’s a “get-rich-quick” scheme.
It’s not (and never will be).
Do some traders make a great living? Yes.
Do some traders make what might be considered a decent yearly salary in a week? Yes.
But the reality is…
90% of Traders Lose
I don’t say this to discourage you.
In fact, I want you to be encouraged because the losers have ZERO discipline or risk management.
Recognize that while $ZCMD $ADVB are fun to trade due to their volatility and liquidity, they're also risky with these potential halts and fast swipes both up and down so I prefer smoother charts like $KSCP $OTLY which are far less exciting but also less risky…which do you… pic.twitter.com/hLaXjManED

If you can learn to identify patterns, learn to take singles, and avoid big losses…
You can be well on your way to growing both of your accounts. But you have to do it in the right order…
Account 1: Your Knowledge Account
Start by learning how real traders do it. Learn to recognize the patterns as they happen.
Don’t fall for the scammers or anyone who tries to tell you it’s easy.
For example, yesterday, Zhongchao Inc. (NASDAQ: ZCMD) spiked from the $1s to the $11s.
But look closely at that chart. See all the gaps? Those are volatility halts.
You do NOT want to get caught in those, because you have ZERO idea whether it is going to skip up or down out of a halt. You don’t even know when the halt is coming.
Here’s something to add to your knowledge account…
You should NEVER try to take the whole move. If you think that’s the answer, then it’s time for a reality check.
None of my 50+ millionaire students take the whole move on ANY trade. And they ALL grew their knowledge account first.
You can grow your knowledge account by joining us tomorrow and Saturday (July 24th and 25th) for…
The Millionaire Formula Conference
It’s free (and is a perfect way to learn, review, or refine).
It really doesn’t matter where you are on your journey, you MUST continue to gain knowledge.
Only THEN can you grow…
Account 2: Your Trading Account
Your trading account is almost a “lagging indicator” of how much knowledge and experience you’ve gained (seriously).
It BLOWS MY MIND when people get a piece of a +1,000% runner and then get angry because they only made $1 per share.
Your trading account grows OVER TIME.
It takes repetition, discipline, and the decision you make today to study hard.
Millionaire Moves
Let’s keep putting things into perspective.
Jack Kellogg is one of my most successful students.
He’s now made $26M+ from trading.*
But do you know how long it took Jack to even break $100K?
Based on Jack’s PnL chart above, it took roughly seven months.
But did you know Jack lost his first year? He almost quit, tried something else to make money and then FINALLY crossed $100K in profits more than a year into his journey.
Let me make one thing clear: Jack is exceptional in that he stuck with it and built his knowledge account.
Only THEN did he start to slowly grow his trading account.
On My Radar
I’ve been in Hawaii for a few days now. It is beautiful…
11pm study check, who’s still up studying, reviewing your charts/scans or making your watchlist for tomorrow?! I’m hiking here in #hawaii but soon I’m done and I’m gonna pass out as tomorrow is gonna be another crazy trading day!!! WHO WANTS IT BAD ENOUGH?? pic.twitter.com/Ju3k5LmmPj

But the time zone is atrocious for waking up extra early, so I’m mostly focused on regular and after-hours trading for now.
Here’s the Key To Growing Your Two Accounts
There is no replacement for time, effort, and experience.
If you really want to break free…
You MUST learn everything you can about the right way to trade.
These big runners are incredible.
But they’re also very choppy (and scary if you’re not prepared).
THIS is the answer…
Study HARD!
Have a great day and I’l be back with you tomorrow.
Cheers,
