How Many Squeeze Dots Is Enough? I Tested 822,381 Trades
How many squeeze dots should you wait for before you take the trade? I ran every squeeze across 615 stocks and 22 years of data, and simulated entering at every dot depth, dot 1, dot 2, dot 3, all the way to 20. That is over 800,000 entries. On its own the dot count looks like pure noise, the win rate barely moves. But split it by one thing you already have on your chart, whether the moving averages are stacked, and the answer completely flips.

Philip Morris (PM): 3 Reasons This Squeeze Is On My Radar
A new squeeze idea on Philip Morris (PM). I just closed a squeeze in the Trade Desk, and while hunting for the next one, PM stood out on the daily. In this walkthrough I go through the three reasons it caught my eye: the squeeze itself, the upcoming earnings, and the trend. We start on the Squeeze Board with 65 active squeezes, filter to the multi-timeframe list, and see why PM's daily signal has backtested better than the 130-minute. Then we pull up the pre-earnings tendency into the July 22 report, and finish on the trend: the market pulse turning green, the pullback, the levels, and where a break could carry toward the $198.82 extension.

S&P 500 Hits the Golden Ratio (Here's What Comes Next)
The S&P 500 hit the Golden Ratio at $740.21. The strength that carried us in is fading, but buyers are still hanging around. In this video we zoom out on SPY, QQQ, and DIA, lay out the key Fibonacci levels, rank the three majors, then use that bias to read the intraday Volatility Box setups. QQQ is the strongest.

Phase Transitions— Physics of Trading 5/5 (Free Course)
In the final episode, I break down phase transitions in relation to physics. Markets do not move through one continuous state. They cycle through four discrete stages, and the transition between them is sharp, not gradual. Richard Wyckoff identified the cycle in the 1920s studying institutional accumulation and distribution. Stan Weinstein formalized stage analysis in 1988. Landau gave us the modern theory of phase transitions in 1937. The pattern is universal because the physics is universal. This wraps the five-part framework: motion, energy, oscillation, temperature, and phase.

Temperature — Physics of Trading 4/5 (Free Course)
In Episode 4, I break down volatility in relation to physics. Volatility in markets is mathematically the same statistic as temperature in physics, and the equation that prices nearly every option you trade is the heat equation in disguise. Bachelier wrote it down for stock prices in 1900. Einstein used it to prove atoms exist in 1905. Black-Scholes-Merton added the no-arbitrage argument in 1973 and won a Nobel.

Oscillation — Physics of Trading 3/5 (Free Course)
In Episode 3, I break down oscillation as a physics concept and connect it directly to trading indicators like RSI and Bollinger Bands. We’ll cover pendulums, Hooke’s Law, equilibrium, amplitude, period, damping, and how those same principles appear in market structure and range behavior. I’ll also explain why fixed RSI thresholds fail when market regimes shift, and walk through real chart examples using XLP, Lowe’s, and YUM Brands.
