ALERT: MARKET IS ABOUT TO GET WORSE (GET READY)
In a Nutshell
Markets are at critical support levels with rising inflation and potential Fed rate hikes ahead, making conditions likely to worsen before improving. Beginners should avoid shorting, using margin/leverage, or overexposing themselves—instead buying small positions in quality companies they can afford to hold through volatility. The speaker bought Google and Amazon at current levels but kept positions light, emphasizing that buying 1 share is better than 10 when risk management skills are limited.

Happy Friday. It's Ricky with TechBot Solutions. The LPP team just wrapped up their live trading session, which happens every day at market open. Markets are overwhelming right now with significant uncertainty. The speaker emphasizes warning beginners that conditions can deteriorate before improving, specifically advising against shorting at oversold levels because beginners typically lack risk management skills.
Experienced traders may short current levels, but beginners should avoid this because markets are structurally more bullish than bearish. When oversold conditions exist, short positions carry elevated risk. The speaker warns that a Trump tweet could trigger a rapid reversal back to previous all-time highs, leaving beginners with unmanaged short positions in a terrible situation.
Simple steps for beginners:
- Find a good quality company you believe in, understand both technically and fundamentally
- Don't use margin or leverage
- Buy with a dollar amount you can afford to lose and tolerate volatility
The speaker has discussed the break of support at QQQ for months. Markets are currently at support levels, with potential for recovery if they break back above 700 by end of day. The speaker bought more Google and Amazon stock for kids' accounts, but kept position sizes light because conditions can worsen before improving. The team wasn't stressed during the live session because they weren't overexposed.
A confirmed attack in the story of news has pushed oil prices higher. Oil is the highest contributor to rising inflation rates. As inflation rises, the Federal Reserve is likely to raise rates in the next meeting. The Fed rate monitor tool shows high probability of rate increases. The current support range has been broken, but it's still early and recovery remains possible.
Beginners should acknowledge their risk management limitations and focus on buying good quality companies over long periods, especially when deals present themselves. The principle: if you can afford 10 shares, buy just 1 share. Being light is better than being sorry. The speaker emphasizes that buying 10 shares or using margin/leverage during 5-15% drops creates emotional exhaustion and forces selling at bottoms.
The speaker doesn't believe in crypto and made a video about BTC. The market experienced the biggest hack of the year at Binance. The speaker believes crypto was funded by Jeffrey Epstein and represents a cult that makes excuses when issues arise. Many crypto traders got liquidated because they used margin or leverage. The advice remains consistent: buy with money you actually have.
MSTR became oversold during the market selloff. BTC has support around 76k, and as long as it holds above that level, recovery is possible. If BTC recovers, MSTR could follow. The speaker respects every trade and trend without letting personal bias cloud judgment.
The speaker holds Amazon and Google positions. Strong conviction in investments means not being offended by criticism or short positions from others. People who get offended by criticism typically don't understand or feel comfortable with their holdings. Current short position is on INTC (overbought reversal), made a few hundred dollars, closed the position as it wasn't progressing as expected.
LPP team members watch live trading and get trade updates. The team is up over $3,000 with the INTC short position still open. If it consolidates back at previous lows, the position could reach approximately 5K profit. Additional trade on SNDK made a few hundred dollars. Current deals include Google and Meta as fair value opportunities.
Key questions for investment decisions:
- Does potential profit outweigh potential loss?
- Are you buying a good quality company that's growing but might be overinvesting in AI?
- Can you stomach the dollar amount you're investing?
Worst case scenarios should be considered before investing, not just best case outcomes. There are many good deals currently, but decisions must be made based on individual risk tolerance.
The LPP sale ends October. Second link in description provides access for $1.30/day with $225 discount. Full price available next month. One-time payment provides lifetime access with members from 2018 still watching live sessions. Live sessions start every morning at market open.
The speaker is excited about current opportunities because good deals are available, not because people are losing money. Position sizing should allow both taking advantage of opportunities and tolerating volatility. The goal is to end the year on a green note.
