Stop gambling and start strategizing by moving from the twitch reactions of day trading to the logic of technical analysis.

In this episode, we dive into the Bison Blueprint with Josh Fuhr to understand why 88 percent of professional experts fail to beat the market and how regular investors can find an edge. We discuss the transition from high-stress day trading to position trading, the importance of identifying support and resistance levels on a real stock chart, and why following insider buying is more effective than following the news cycle.
