The best trades come when everything lines up.

It's something I stress inside of TTI daily.

"Why are you buying this?"

It's a question you should ask yourself every single time you hit the buy button.

And if you can't come up with a compelling argument.. don't buy it.

Here's how I justify my buys.

Building The Bigger Picture

We start with a holistic view of the market.

Here's what that looks like:

Using our top down process, we look at the entire picture: indexes, breadth, sentiment, sectors, industries, currencies, bonds, intermarket analysis, etc.

We need to know exactly what's working and what isn't before we decide whether or not we're buying, selling, or doing nothing.

The right strategy for the right market environment. That's the cheat code.

Once we figure out the bigger picture, we turn our focus towards the actual trades we want to put on to make the most amount of money from the bigger picture.

That means owning stocks in sectors and industries that are leading higher.

A great stock in a poor sector will underperform a weak stock in a great sector more often than not.

That's not my opinion -- it's math! And if you don't like it, complain to the financial institutions that are pumping billions into sector and industry ETFs.

Putting It All Together

Take our current trade on Ero Copper (ERO) as an example:

We opened this trade back on November 28th, 2025.

You can read a portion of the trade alert as was sent out to our members here:

The premise was simple:

• The primary trend of the market was higher, so we knew we had to be buyers of stocks
• Commodities were beginning to break out with the Materials sector showing relative strength
• ERO had just broken out of a multi-year base and into an all-time high with high momentum

We built the bigger picture first. Niched down into the right area of the market. And bought one of the leaders.

And today we were able to sell half of ERO at over 100%.

The best part? We have another four months to hold ERO.. just as the Material sector works on breaking out into new all-time highs:

We're expecting to make a lot more money on ERO before this trade is over. And we're actively buying more Materials-related stocks today.

This breakout isn't going to just fizzle out here. It's been consolidating for the last five years. And when this type of consolidation breaks.. it breaks out violently.
