The Margin Called
Laugh, Trade, Profit.
Date: December 18, 2024
Hey Trader,
Rodney B here! Quick update – no signal today. That’s right. We’re sitting on our hands, sipping coffee, and watching the markets like hawks. Why? Because sometimes waiting is the best trade.
Let’s recap:
Yesterday’s EURUSD SELL: Picture-Perfect Profit 🎯
Yesterday’s EURUSD SELL was an absolute beauty. The trade melted straight to our take profit like butter on a hot pan. We closed out a sweet 1.89 R/R win this morning for 40 pips profit.
✅ Small Risk, Big Reward.
✅ Perfect Entry, Stress-Free Trade.
And then? We hit the brakes. Why? Because today’s FOMC meeting and Fed decision could set off fireworks. Volatility like that can shake the market harder than a toddler hopped up on sugar.
If you’ve been wondering why we don’t throw signals just to look busy—this is why. Patience pays.
Savvy Investors Know Where to Get Their News—Do You?
Here’s the truth: there is no magic formula when it comes to building wealth.
Much of the mainstream financial media is designed to drive traffic, not good decision-making. Whether it’s disingenuous headlines or relentless scare tactics used to generate clicks, modern business news was not built to serve individual investors.
Luckily, we have The Daily Upside. Created by Wall Street insiders and bankers, this fresh, insightful newsletter delivers valuable insights that go beyond the headlines.

The Power of Patience – Why No Trade Is a Trade
Let me tell you a secret.
Sometimes the hardest thing for traders is doing nothing. You open your platform, you see the charts, and you think, “Surely I can find something!”
I’ve been there. Back in the day, I would force trades just because I couldn’t sit still. The result? I gave back profits I didn’t need to lose.
But here’s the truth:
The market doesn’t care how many trades you take.
The best setups come to those who wait.
Preserving capital is just as important as making profits.
Today, I chose to step back, keep yesterday’s win locked in, and let the Fed news play out. Trading isn’t about being busy—it’s about being right.
Why We Waited for the Fed News
Tonight’s Federal Reserve interest rate decision is the main event. It’s the Super Bowl of economic news, and it’s got the USD pairs ready to rumble.
Here’s what you need to know:
High Volatility Alert 🚨: The Fed will announce its outlook for 2025—rate hikes, inflation, and economic growth.
USD Impact: A hawkish Fed (talking rate hikes) could send USD higher. A dovish Fed (softening on hikes) could send it crashing.
Why does it matter? Trading before big news is like running through a minefield blindfolded. Professional traders wait for clarity—and so do we.

Today’s Financial News – Why It Matters
1. All Eyes on the Fed 🏦
The Federal Reserve’s big announcement is tonight. Traders expect clues on whether rates will stay high or finally drop in 2025.
Why it matters: Expect fireworks on USD pairs. EURUSD, USDJPY, and XAUUSD (Gold) are all in the spotlight.
2. Oil Prices Drop as OPEC Cuts Lose Steam 🛢️
Crude oil fell another 2% as markets doubt whether OPEC’s production cuts will balance global demand.
Why it matters: Falling oil often means risk-off sentiment, which can strengthen USD and impact pairs like USD/CAD.
3. Bitcoin Holds Firm at $105K 🚀
Crypto traders are celebrating as BTC consolidates above $105K. This resilience signals bullish momentum for risk assets.
Why it matters: Bitcoin’s stability could spill over into riskier forex trades, encouraging more aggressive buying in pairs like AUD/USD and GBP/USD.
Final Thought – Learn to Love the Pause
Trading isn’t about “doing more.” It’s about doing what’s right. Today, the right move was sitting back and locking in yesterday’s profits.
