 So in this video, I'll be showing you what's my pre-market routine. I love you guys. I've been asking what I do in the morning to really set up for success. And it might not be what you expect. So as usual, all the best tools will be linked in the description. Don't forget to check that out. Let's get right in. There's a few obvious things in my pre-market routine, like getting up. It's pretty obvious taking a shower before trading and getting dressed. If I don't take a shower, I always feel in a lazy state like a Sunday morning. The next thing after getting dressed is going to be a nice full coffee. I do that while I get to my computer. And this is going to be about 6 30 a.m. So I do trade a lot the pre-market now. I don't trade that much during the regular trading hours. So because my trading is going to be, you know, between 6 and 9 30, a lot of the time, I'm not going to be able to really go outside or have a workout or like stretch because unfortunately I do want to sleep in. And if I want to get my eight hours, I need to be in bed by 10 all the time. It's quite hard, you know, have a girlfriend, but when you're on vacation, like in Argentina, it's two hours later. So that means when the market opens at 9 30, it's going to be 11 30 a.m. over here. And that's nice. Coming back to my routine, I start to look at what happened the day before. And I started to game plan or think about ideas for the day, but I trade very differently than most traders. So most traders do trade technical pattern. So they wait for a start to move up. They wait for like a nice wedge and then they try to buy the breakout when it breaks. I don't do that or at least don't do it often. What I really do is look for a start to have fresh news. And for me, a fresh news is this news that came out in like the past 30 seconds. And I try to be one of the first one on that news. So a lot of what I do is about speed and less about pattern recognition. The pattern recognition part is going just to come in handy after I'm already in a trade because I do still know how to trade patterns because I did that for the past four years. So this is going to be where I mess up the whole counter. And I also have my second coffee at about 6 50. I'll normally get my second cup to make sure that I'm really sharp during the trading morning. And being sharp implies being back at my desk by 6 50 because all these companies are going to start releasing their press release by 7 a.m. at least most companies. So from about 7 a.m. to 8 30 a.m. This is where I'm going to be the most active. But there's a tricky part about this. When I used to trade patterns, I was able to really create a game plan. And you know, write down ideas of what I was looking for. But when you trade news, you don't get this luxury. You have to be really sharp about what type of news and also the expectation of move that you should be seeing from this type of news and you have to process this within a really short time frame because your edge is going to be speed versus the pattern recognition. So you can't write down anything. Everything has to be in your head. And this is where you can get a really good advantage, depending on your mental ability. When it comes to that type of news, I really look for news that made a stock move a lot. How do you know that you look for a stock that historically made a big move in the pre-market early after hour? I look at the news and I create filter for similar news. And then I just wait for these news to come up like anything in trading. Some days are going to have so many news. Some days are just having almost no news. And this is where patient comes handy. That's nothing new in trading. No matter what strategy you're trading, it's something you're going to have to deal with. So at this point, it should be about 845. And for me, this is where it really slows down and it's a good time to take a break. When you're on vacation, this is going to be the perfect time to enjoy the sun and not be stuck in the cold-ass winter in Montreal. Unfortunately, I have to be back at my desk around 9.15. So between 9.15 and 9.30, this is where I create my regular trading plan. And then I'll put really what's the hottest stock with the hottest news if there's a pattern that happened later. But for the most part, I'll just be tracking stock that come out with news during the day. But this is not really something that happened often, or at least the big moves don't happen every day. What's going to create a big move is an ultra positive catalyst or ultra negative catalyst. Everything that's in between is just irrelevant. And most of the filter I build out is just about taking off all the fluff in these news. So for the next two and a half hours, what I'll do is just focus on these news feed and also keep an eye on the one stock that might offer a really big move. Also, because I trade news, I don't get the luxury of taking a long break because you never know when the news is going to come out. This is why I only take a lunch break between 12 and about 12.30. During that break, what I'll do is cook myself something light because I don't want to be too stuff and fall asleep. A lot of time I wish I could just take a nap, but it's not that time yet. So back on the screen around 12.30. And this is where I'm going to be sitting again for the next three and a half hours. The first thing I do when I get back to my desk is just chat with friends, chat with the boys, catch up on what they traded on the day, how's everyone doing. And also what they're watching for the afternoon because the best counter is often just the ice. The rest of the day between 2 and 4 p.m. is going to get back to really active trading for most trader and not many people are going to be willing to talk or just, you know, listen to your bad joke. And it's also the time to really focus on trading because this is what I'm here for. So at about 3.30, this is where my day is going to end, unless there's a crazy stock going around or it is earning season. But right now I'm on vacation and I'm trading on my portable setup that you can get all the details right here.
