They Call You Dumb Money

Let’s Prove Them Wrong. 💪🏻🥊

The term “dumb money” was coined by institutional investors—hedge funds, banks, and big players in finance. It’s their way of dismissing retail traders like us as impulsive, uninformed, and doomed to fail.

On the other hand, there’s “smart money”—the insiders and institutions shaping the market with their resources and connections. They profit by staying one step ahead of the crowd.

But here’s the truth: being called “dumb money” doesn’t mean you have to lose. It means you need to trade smarter. I believe there’s a third category: Wise Money—and hopefully, that’s what my followers are or will become.

Wise Money Outplays Smart Money

1. Follow the Smart Money’s Footprints

Use Volume Price Analysis to track accumulation or distribution phases and avoid falling into traps.

2. Patience Over Impulse

Wise traders wait for clarity, skipping volatile phases and avoiding forced trades.

3. Thrive in Any Market

Ride the bulls with clear exits. In bear markets, find undervalued assets or short setups. Every phase offers opportunity.

4. Control Emotions

Fear and greed don’t drive wise money. Stick to the plan, accept losses, and remember—cash is a position too.

5. Step Back When Needed

Sometimes, the smartest move is doing nothing. Wise money knows when to sit out and let the market settle.

Play the Long Game

Smart money has the resources, but wise money wins by observing, adapting, and staying disciplined. By letting their moves guide us, we turn their strength into our advantage.

They call us dumb money, but as we grow and refine our craft, we’ll prove them wrong. We don’t just survive the bulls and bears—we ride them.
