Nearly 3 decades later, my Weekend Trader strategy is still going strong. But I’ve noticed something interesting the past few Fridays… Maybe it’s because I’m so focused on after-hours trading right now. Or maybe it’s the biggest theme in the market for the past year.
I’ve been trading now for 28 years and teaching for 20. That’s crazy. In that time, I’ve watched thousands of traders try to make millions and fail. I’ve also helped more than 50 people become millionaires from scratch. What did I learn in all this time?
Whewwwwwwww! 3-day weekends are always nice for traders to rest and reset. But there’s a reason I REALLY needed the extra day off this time. I’d even go so far as to say it couldn’t have happened at a better time. Because I’m trying to get accustomed to this… Welcome to 16-hour trading days!
Learning how to start commodity trading is a smart move for any trader who wants to better understand how supply, demand and global market trends impact price action across sectors. Even if you’re focused on stocks like I am, building your trading knowledge account by understanding how commodities influence broader moves in the market can give you a sharper edge.
While Wall Street takes a breather for Labor Day, the real action begins tomorrow morning. Shortened trading weeks are different. With fewer sessions, momentum often packs into tighter windows — and that can send volatility through the roof starting Tuesday.
