The trader’s glossary

A calm place to look up the words that shape a market conversation—from the basics of orders and liquidity to the chart and risk concepts that come next.

Weekly Journal Tip

Review one recent SPY or QQQ session.

Before looking at the chart, write what you remember noticing and what you were unsure about. Then compare your notes with the price action, record one fact you missed, and finish with a question to investigate next week. This is a study exercise, not a trading instruction.
