    Why I Never Chase Extended Moves

    ByPiratos April 28, 2026April 28, 2026

    A stock breaks out. It surges 15%, 20%, 30% above its moving averages. The chart looks perfect — if you squint. Social media lights up with screenshots and hindsight entries. The temptation is real. I skip every one of those. My system filters out extended entries before I ever see them. A stock that has…

    What Ruin Risk Means and Why It Matters

    ByPiratos April 23, 2026April 23, 2026

    Ruin risk is the probability that a trading account hits zero. Not drawdown. Not a bad month. Zero. Game over. Most traders focus on win rate. Win rate feels good. It flatters the ego. But a 70% win rate with oversized positions and no stop discipline can still blow up an account. One bad stretch,…

    Why Volume Confirmation Matters on Breakouts

    ByPiratos April 22, 2026April 22, 2026

    A stock breaking out of a base with no volume is a whisper in a crowded room. Easy to miss. Easy to fake. Volume turns that whisper into a shout. When price moves through resistance on heavy volume, real buyers showed up. Institutions do not tip-toe into positions. They buy in size, and that size…

    What “Trade Like a Pirate” Actually Means

    ByPiratos April 21, 2026April 21, 2026

    People hear the pirate branding and expect swagger. Swords on charts. A catchphrase in every sentence. That misses the point. Pirates operated on clear rules. Share the loot by a formula. Vote the captain out if he made bad calls. Know the risk before boarding the ship. No one sailed blind and hoped for the…

    Why I Paper Trade Before Going Live

    ByPiratos April 16, 2026April 16, 2026

    I spent twenty years making decisions with real money on the line in poker. The stakes were concrete. The feedback was instant. You know within seconds whether a call was right or wrong. So when I started swing trading, skipping paper trading felt like the natural move. I already knew how to manage risk. I…

    Building a Trading System as an IT Guy

    ByPiratos April 14, 2026April 14, 2026

    Building a Trading System as an IT Guy I build systems for a living. Most of my day is spent on uptime, redundancy, and logical flows. When I started trading, I looked for the same things. I did not want a gut feeling or a ‘hunch’ based on a Twitter thread. I wanted a set…
