Yes, please go more into the details about strategy development, particularly hypotheses and reverse engineering. It would be awesome to see more examples.
YES! please make a in depth series, it’s hard to isolate certain variables for trading setups there is so much to analyze but what actually matters is what’s most important. Thank you guys
I am thankful for y’all for making this video! This is single-handedly one of the most helpful videos I have ever watched in regards to where I am at on my journey right now. My hand still hurts from all the notes I just wrote. I have been asking myself ever since your original tweet, “how can I really develop an edge” and I would be even more grateful for this to be made into a multi-part series. Once you take an honest look at yourself and open your mind, this kind of information is gold!
Hey thank you so much everyone at SMB and Lance for taking the time to go over some core concepts that will develop great habits, with all the fluff out there its great to be able to come back to this channel to enjoy some hard introspective input on the subject ... I would absolutely love to come back to a video with a complete deep dive surrounding edge and strategy building, this is already a great template that will help me allocate my time efficiently.
I'm a month late but your wisdom is so greatly appreciated by so many people Lance that a 102, 103, 104, ect..on this topic would be nothing but more if your amazing work. Thank you and SMB for all you do!!!
I would absolutely love more detailed videos diving deeper into strategy development. Also I'd like to thank you Lance, Bella, and everyone at SMB for making such helpful videos and showing us what it really takes to become profitable.
Lance, just AWESOME! I’m understanding options trading thanks to you, SMB other resources but looking for strategies with edge is what I need. In all my education over 8 different careers, I need to 1. Know where we need to go (big picture), 2. All the ways to get there (setups), 3. How to avoid dying when it begins to go South. I’ve learned in my life sucking at school that girls start with 2 then go to 1. And, so they do better in school cuz most early teachers were girls. Bring it in Brother!
I would love to see a continuation into this topic ! I am already practicing some of the methods Lance described but I would like to GET BETTER, learn new things and bits by bits improve my ressearch on how to develop+Increase my edge !
Yes, I would appreciate it very much! Especially the hypothesis method would help me the most personally to find a stock in play, where the technicals finally play out. Being on my own with commonly available sources I relied very much on technicals. I see potential technical edge with a good hit rate but can´t really match it to the fundamental environment. Too often I found myself in trades, which showed clear rule complying technicals in foresight, but in result sideways or failing movement. The analysis of fundamental/news based catalysts always kind of intimidated me, because I´m not a financial expert and because of that in some news I can´t really process if there is a positive or negative reaction to anticipate in all of these types of news or numbers. Thank you for all your content and especially this one, because it added further clearity on what I was doing in my personal process.
This kind of content really resonates with because I’m just starting out and developing an edge is the single factor you could work to improve your chances in succeeding as a trader. Would love to see similar content delving further on the topic.
6 star video, Lance and Bella. Thank you. This perspective aligns highly with my worldview, and I gained some valuable insights. The superabundance of junk food finance content in the world is very confusing to me. It seems to me that beginners need principles and not news. Associates need case logic and practice. Potential leaders need refinement. I think it could be useful to preface this for your audience in almost every video. Say who the video is for upfront. Elite traders need to optimize their sleep. Pre-beginners need to understand principles of valuation - and maybe how to sell options at low risk before they try to trade the news and discover unpublished edges. Almost no one is preaching principles of expected value and how to understand catalysts for mean reversion on CZcams. It seems to me that the only evergreen strategy is principled valuation, and all other trading patterns attenuate their edge over time. Even discovered patterns like gun sale report trade volumes can be described in the context of principled demand prediction as a subset of value theory. I think it should be taught that diversification across tested trading patterns with edge is the way to avoid outsized losses when edges attenuate... and that principled valuation and understanding of the sources and profiles of support and resistance is the source and method for naming new trading patterns with an edge.
This is really valuable content, creating systems for analyzing and dissecting events and testing hypotheses. Thanks for doing this and would love to see more!
You know when you feel the content is boring, it means you are at right place and you are actually taking trading as business not like playing in casino. FURU's just show you nothing. This is what it takes to actually becomes an profitable trader. Thanks for sharing these quality educational videos and even showing us that we are competing with Pro-Athletes of this game. I feel this game is difficult because first I have to work on myself to find working strategy then second to compete with all different types of player. In other sports, we have fixed number of players in a team and the opponent teams is also at same level. But in trading, all level of players are playing at same time. If I want to do good in trading I have to work. Can't complain. Thanks again for the education. I learn so much from your videos.
Lance what a fantastic video! I would very much like to see multiple videos based on Developing Winning Trading Strategies.... can't wait to see, watch part 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 etc.... lets rock this!
Great video, what you said at the start makes so much sense. Definitely notice this within my trades, mistaken a few lucky trades for edge, journaling has helped recognise them though
Very great. Would love to see more, especially on back testing. Your video with the "easiest trades" was excellent also. That gave us a solid step in the right direction if we were willing to put in the work to study and research.
Great stuff Lance. Its so true you cant just have TA edge you must have some FA edge to go along with it. I cant tell you how much this has helped in my trading!
Yes, this was a great video, loved the examples of the methods, strategy development is key, please continue series. Three key areas I find utmost important: edge/strategy, psychology, and risk mgmt
I think this is very true. I've noticed on the SMB videos how clean the charts are - they're choosing strongly trending stocks and selecting intelligent entry and exit points. I find myself thinking "of course it's an easy trade if the chart is trending that cleanly," then I realize that's a huge part of their edge - selecting the right stocks to begin with.
I mean how can you create a better educational video than this? Obviously we have to be at a decent level to even comprehend the ideas here, but Lance, Steve, Mike, with volatility lowering here -I understand it's of the utmost importance to figure out edge. Was thinking about slim pickings earlier this week, but just representative of this new environment. Appreciate as always.
Yes, do this series please! Thank you for this video. I've been doing what you're saying in this video for a year now and I am still missing something. I have a feeling that I am to slow to utilize an idea. Whenever I find a trade 2-3 weeks later market is changing and the probability is collapsing significantly. Also big thanks for your content and what your doing for the trading community.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone at SMB capital. Lance, this is a very important topic to learn for me and I beilieve for everyone in the trading community. Please make this a multi part series. Thank you.
Great video. I'd love to hear more on this topic. Also would like to hear your thoughts on how to determine if a strategy doesn't have edge before you waste time or money on it. Thank you!
Fooled by randomness is a must read. Right up there with Rem. Of a Stock Operator, and those books by Bella! 😀 great video Lance and SMB, your content is always just so applicable…
thank you Lance & SMB Capital for this. this single video lead through a breakthrough on my plateau in trading. truly valuable. can't thank you all enough. and I hope there are still more examples and the details on this, Lance. :)
Thanks a lot! It would be very helpful to hear you on categorizing principles. I really want to know how to define finite number of parameters for certain type of trades and not go for too many or too few.
Thank you Lance, this was an amazing eye opening video. A Developing Trading Strategies 201 video will be immensel helpful. Thank you for putting in the ime to help us improve and move to the next level.
I'd suggest exploring how betting strategies can constitute the sole edge of a system and how they improve the setups that already have edge. Thanks for the quality content!
Continue the good work: I like that you managed to distill the work of development of strategies with edge with four distinct categories: observation, hypothesis, reverse engineering and mimicking.
SMB's Trading Workshop: bit.ly/3V0WOV5
Lance on Twitter: twitter.com/TheOneLanceB
Yes. Teach us an edge that we can mimic.
Dude, give us some strategies that have Edge!

I rarely comment on youtube videos, this is absolutely a topic worthy of making it into a multi-part series. Thanks Lance!

Of course start with multi-part series please. It was so helpful to start with. Thanks Lance and to the SMB team
This is priceless, everything else is noise. This is how you learn how to trade for real. Most valuable video from Lance and SMB so far for me
