Hello Traders,

Many of you have joined as new subscribers, so doing some house keeping. Everyone must understand that Trading process is not a get quick rich scheme. There is a steep learning process involved.

If you have less than five years of time period for learning, you are in for a rude shock. Let me be very clear and upfront to you. Trading is NOT for you. A casino may be a better place for you.

If you come to trading with excitements or emotions; chances are Trading will ruin your day.

In this post, I am once again going through the basics of preparation work required for Day trading and how to use the information posted by me in Substack Chat. Please take as much time as you need to understand the basics, because I am not going to respond to simple questions via DMs.

Below message was sent earlier in Chat and sending it again here…

For All Free Subscribers:

I am planning to end Free Subscription tier for vikopine.substack.com as I keep getting too many queries from them which causes deviation of my focus towards trading. If you are still a Free Subscriber, Please upgrade to Paid Subscription by this Sunday, 1/5

Here is helpful link from Substack on how to upgrade from Free to Paid subscription https://support.substack.com/hc/en-us/articles/6051838054932-How-do-I-upgrade-from-being-a-free-subscriber-to-a-paid-subscriber

Beyond this Sunday, free subscribers will not get any messages or updates. Let’s have undivided focus on Trading and have a profitable 2025. Not even one subscriber should be unprofitable. That’s the goal. Thanks for your support.

From Monday, 1/6 the Subscription plans are going back to pre-holiday levels and will look like below:

My posts have proven to be immensely valuable and being read across USA and in 51 countries.

I also don’t keep it free because free is not considered valuable. At any price, the value is huge. I can charge much higher prices but I don’t have to because I make money from my own trading using the same strategy I share with all paid subscribers. If you want to pay higher prices, go to various X furus. There are plenty.

The Live Day Trading, where I post the setup and my plays in Substack Chat, is another value being delivered to paid subscribers. Only SPY 0.00%↑ QQQ 0.00%↑ options and Futures are traded live. Nothing else. Only 1 or 2 trades are taken.

Few of my very strategic posts on Trading are listed below for easy reference.

You can reach me on Substack, X, StockTwits for any valid question, you may have.

I am sending this post on Saturday (instead of Sunday) so that you can spend more time to review it. Each and every word requires your attention.
