Dolla Holla Trader, After running the UK intraday sessions at the end of 2025, one thing has become very clear: Intraday trading works — but it’s demanding. It requires screen time, constant decision-making, and high mental energy. For many traders, that’s fine in short bursts. But it’s not always the most sustainable model  over months and years. That’s why, for Q1 2026, I’m opening USD Edge . Join Here USD Edge is a 10-week FX swing trading group mentorship  designed to hel

As 2025 comes to a close, many traders look ahead with good intentions. Very few stop to properly review how they’ve been operating — and even fewer put support in place to ensure 2026 unfolds differently. This short series was written to address that gap. Not with hype. Not with predictions. But with standards. Below are the four parts of the Sharpen Your Edge for 2026  series, designed to help you reflect properly and decide how you want to approach the year ahead. Part 1 –

Over the last few days, I’ve covered three things that quietly shape a trader’s results far more than most people realise: Whether they formally review a year, or just remember it The cost of drifting forward without understanding what actually happened Why hope and intention aren’t enough to form a real plan The final question is a practical one: Once you’ve reviewed and planned properly — how do you actually support progress? Because insight without support rarely lasts. Wh

If you’ve read the first two pieces, you’ll already know where this is heading. Review matters. Skipping it leads to drift. Drift quietly repeats years. The next question is the one most traders avoid: Do you actually have a plan for how you’re going to operate in 2026? Not a vague intention. Not a resolution. A plan. What Most Traders Mean by “A Plan” When traders say they have a plan for the new year, it usually sounds like this: “I’ll be more disciplined.” “I’ll trade les

In the first piece, I asked a simple question: Have you actually reviewed your trading year — or have you just remembered it? Today, I want to go one step further, because there’s a cost to skipping that review. And it’s rarely obvious at the time. Most traders think the damage comes from bad trades. In reality, it comes from unexamined behaviour . Drift Is Expensive — But Subtle When traders don’t formally review a year, nothing dramatic usually happens straight away. There

“Every trader knows Double Tops and Bottoms — but few trade them the same way.” In this Bonus Session of the TOGS Trading Podcast , Paul Wallace and Ian McFadden take on one of the oldest and most recognisable reversal setups in trading — the Double Top and Double Bottom . You’ll see how two experienced traders approach the same pattern completely differently  — from how they spot early formation, to confirmation, timing, and trade management once price turns. It’s an eye-ope
