    In this episode, we dive deep into seasonal trading strategies, market leadership, and how external factors impact futures markets. 🎯

    Here’s a breakdown of the key insights shared by Steven Orr:

    📈 Seasonal Trends in Trading:
    🔹 Steven shares his approach to summer trading – low volume but high volatility, making it easier to spot trends.
    🔹 He explains why September is historically bad for stocks, driven by interest rates and financial markets, while fall is crucial for agriculture due to harvesting.

    💻 Tech Stocks & Market Leadership:
    🔹 Major tech players like Apple, Nvidia, and Google are market leaders and are poised to continue their dominance, especially with the rise of AI.

    🌾 Agriculture Futures:
    🔹 Steven provides a deep dive into how seasonal cycles, weather patterns, and crop yields affect the prices of commodities like corn, wheat, and soybeans.

    🍖 Weight Loss Drugs & Cattle Prices:
    🔹 He highlights a fascinating trend: rising demand for weight loss drugs like Eli Lilly’s Mounjaro is increasing protein demand, driving up cattle prices.

    📊 Futures Trading Strategy:
    🔹 Following weather patterns, seasonality, and global events like OPEC cuts are crucial in futures trading.
    🔹 Steven’s strategies also consider factors like copper used in construction and oil production decisions.

    💡 Trading Platforms & Tools:
    🔹 Quasar Markets, a platform integrating multiple tools (AI, Season X, charting), helps traders identify trends and seasonality. It's accessible for just $15/month and tailored for stocks, futures, crypto, etc.

    🔑 Trading Philosophy:
    🔹 Steven believes in Thesis Trading, sticking to a strong thesis and executing without fear.
    🔹 He shares the importance of starting small, scaling up as the thesis remains validated, and maintaining a winning ratio of "50 + 1" (small losses, bigger wins).

    🖥️ Research & Consolidation:
    🔹 Steven’s 25-screen setup underscores how complex managing trading data can be. Quasar Markets simplifies this by consolidating data, allowing traders to focus on the essentials.

    🧠 Mindset & Discipline:
    🔹 Confidence in your analysis is key. Steven stresses the importance of executing your thesis without seeking external validation while staying positive and disciplined throughout.
