What do a currency trader with market monitors in his bathroom, an investor who crossed continents on a motorcycle, a pioneer of computerized trading, and a teenager placing trades through his father have in common?

They each found their own way to approach the financial markets.

In Episode 7 of Long Game Trading, William Truitt explores the people and stories that make trading such an absorbing pursuit.

Meet Bill Lipschutz, whose fascination with currencies led to a career at Salomon Brothers. Follow Jim Rogers, who travelled the world and learned the value of waiting for the right opportunity. Discover how Ed Seykota brought computers into trading long before they became commonplace, and how Richard Dennis built a fortune in the futures markets before teaching his Turtle Traders.

There's also Jack Schwager, whose Market Wizards books opened a window into the minds and lives of traders who approached the markets in their own ways.

But this episode isn't just about markets or money.

William reflects on his father, Brian Truitt, whose enthusiasm for aviation, electronics, music, and discovery filled their family home with energy and helped shape his son's curiosity about the world.

It's a story about people who follow their interests, challenge conventions, and find satisfaction in discovering what they're capable of.

Because trading isn't just about making money.

It's an art.

Can artificial intelligence really analyze stock charts and help traders make better-informed decisions?

In this episode of Long Game Trading, William Truitt puts Bullynx, an AI-powered stock chart analysis platform, to the test.

Using Tesla (TSLA) as a real-world example, William explores how Bullynx interprets technical indicators, identifies potential entry and exit points, evaluates risk, and develops bullish and bearish trading scenarios.

But the most interesting part of the experiment comes when William challenges Lynx, the platform's conversational AI assistant, about a questionable stop-loss recommendation. Can the AI explain its reasoning and reconsider its conclusions?

You'll also discover where Bullynx could be useful for swing traders, how it might reduce research time, what could be improved, and whether its pricing makes sense for someone who already has an established trading strategy.

This isn't a promotional walkthrough. It's an independent, hands-on review from a trader who's spent years experimenting with trading software and looking for practical ways to simplify the process.

What if the best swing trading strategy isn't about making more trades, finding the perfect indicator, or spending every waking hour watching charts?

In this episode of Long Game Trading, William Truitt shares his favourite approach to swing trading: a simple, patient strategy built around finding established price patterns, waiting for the right opportunity, and letting the market do most of the work.

After years of experimenting with different trading styles, tools, and strategies, William explains why he's become more interested in doing less, not more.

We'll explore what he looks for in a stock, why he doesn't try to predict the exact bottom, how he approaches entries and exits, and why sitting in cash can sometimes be the smartest trade of all.

It's an approach designed for traders who want to make money without turning trading into another full-time job.

Because being greedy about your returns and lazy about your workload might not be such a bad combination after all.

Finding promising swing trading opportunities shouldn't mean spending hours searching through thousands of stock charts.

In this episode of Long Game Trading, host William Truitt explores four popular stock screening tools: Finviz, TradingView, Yahoo Finance, and Interactive Brokers.

Which free tools are actually worth using? What are their limitations? And can you build an effective swing trading watchlist without paying for expensive software subscriptions?

We'll explore practical ways to filter stocks by price, trading volume, market capitalization, moving averages, and recent performance. You'll also learn why a stock screener is only a starting point, not a shortcut to profitable trading.

Whether you're just getting started with swing trading or looking to simplify your existing research routine, this episode focuses on finding useful tools, avoiding unnecessary expenses, and spending less time in front of your trading screens.

Because the goal isn't to collect more trading software. It's to make better-informed decisions while keeping control of your time.

In Episode 2 of Long Game Trading, host William Truitt explores swing trading—the middle ground between fast-paced day trading and long-term investing—and asks whether it offers a more practical way to trade without sacrificing your freedom.

Discover how swing traders identify potential opportunities using market trends, support and resistance, moving averages, trading volume, and stock screeners. We'll also examine the risks that deserve serious attention, including overnight price gaps, failed breakouts, position sizing, and the psychological challenges of managing real money.

You'll learn how a structured trading routine can help you research opportunities, establish entry and exit plans, manage risk, and evaluate your results without becoming a slave to the opening bell.

But this episode goes beyond charts and trading strategies. It asks a bigger question:

If you're trading to achieve financial freedom, what happens when trading starts consuming the very freedom you're pursuing?

Swing trading may offer greater flexibility, but successful trading isn't simply about making money. It's also about protecting your capital, managing your time, and maintaining a healthy perspective on what really matters.

No hype. No promises of easy money. Just a thoughtful exploration of trading, discipline, risk, and the value of your freedom.

Why do so many people get into trading? For many, the answer is freedom. Financial independence, control over their time, and the possibility of escaping the traditional nine-to-five.

But what happens when the pursuit of that freedom becomes another full-time job?

In this first episode of Long Game Trading, William Truitt explores the Catch-22 of trading: the countless hours spent studying markets, learning strategies, watching charts, and managing trades can consume the very freedom traders originally hoped to achieve.

We explore different trading styles, the hidden cost of time, the relationship between capital and returns, and how technology, screening tools, and smarter systems might help us find a better balance.

Trading isn't just about making money. It's also about what that money costs us in time, energy, and opportunity.
