Squeezing Profits
Catch Volatility Breakouts Before They Happen
Markets alternate between quiet stretches and sharp ones. The Squeeze is built to show you when a market has gone quiet, and when that quiet ends.
The traders who profit from the Squeeze aren't the ones who catch every move. They're the ones who show up with a plan.
The Squeeze combines Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels into a single signal. It flags when price compresses into an unusually tight range and fires when that compression releases. This book explains how each piece works, then shows how to trade it on daily, weekly, and intraday charts across stocks, indices, crypto, and commodities, with specific rules for entries, exits, and stop placement.
Across five parts and twenty chapters, it moves from the foundations of volatility to advanced patterns, risk management, and the psychology of executing under pressure. Seven annotated case studies, in Tesla, Nvidia, the S&P 500, Bitcoin, Apple, Amazon, and crude oil, each walk through the setup, the entry, the exit, and the lesson.
It is not a book about finding perfect trades. It is about a repeatable process: spot the coil, wait for confirmation, filter hard, and execute with discipline, so that a breakout that fails costs little and the edge has room to build over many trades.
