What if you could make money when a stock goes down? That’s exactly where this class goes today.


We’re breaking down short selling, Stage 4 breakdowns, short squeezes, trading risk, and the psychology that can make or break your results. And trust me, this is where trading starts getting real.


You’ll see why trying to predict the market can get you into trouble, why waiting for the right setup matters, and why managing your losses is more important than being right every time.


Here’s what we cover:


✅ How short selling actually works

✅ Why short squeezes can become extremely dangerous

✅ Why Stage 4 is the key setup for short trades

✅ How to use stops without moving them the wrong way

✅ Why losses can cluster, even with a real edge

✅ How hindsight and confirmation bias can wreck your decisions


One of the biggest lessons? Don’t short a stock just because you think it has gone too far. Short the decline, not your opinion.


We also dive into the midterm quiz and the mindset behind becoming a better trader. The goal isn’t to predict every move. It’s to build a process you can actually follow.
