Overview

Why this glossary exists.

Most trading content assumes you already speak the language. A video mentions “RSI divergence on the 4H,” a Discord calls something “a liquidity grab,” a broker's platform throws “margin call” at you with no explanation — and beginners either nod along or quietly give up.

This is not a dictionary you read cover to cover. It is a reference: the companion to Welcome to Trading, built so that whenever you hit a word you don't know — in the book, in a video, in a broker's app — you have one place to check, without falling down a rabbit hole of contradictory forum answers.

Same rule as always: no upsell, and no “but really understanding this term requires my course.” Just the definitions, straight — 110 of them, free.

No upsell, no “but really understanding this term requires my course.” Just the definitions, straight.

What makes it different

A reference built to be used.

01110 terms

Every term, in one place

Eleven chapters of ten terms each — from bid, ask and spread to gas fees, tilt and HODL. One place to check instead of ten contradictory forum threads.

02Not A–Z

Grouped by where you meet them

Market structure, then order types, mechanics and risk, then the two schools of analysis, crypto, psychology and slang. Related words sit next to each other, so one lookup explains its neighbours too.

03Plain English

Myths corrected in passing

A market maker is not an entity secretly steering price against you. A stop-loss can fill away from its level when markets gap. Short definitions that stay honest about the details.

04No upsell

Free, like everything else

No email wall, no paid edition, no “the full definition is in my course.” The same commitment as Welcome to Trading, and the standard for everything we release next.

Outcomes

What you will be
able to do.

Not knowledge for its own sake — things you can actually do once you've finished.

  • Follow a trading video, forum or Discord thread without stopping at every second word.
  • Tell market, limit, stop and stop-limit orders apart before you place one.
  • Know what a stop-loss can and cannot promise when price gaps past it.
  • Read leverage, margin and margin call on a broker's platform and know what each means for your account.
  • Separate win rate, expectancy and edge — three numbers that get used as if they were one.
  • Recognise RSI, MACD, ATR and VWAP by name and by what they actually measure.
  • Name FOMO, tilt and revenge trading when they happen, rather than after the damage.
  • Translate slang like “rekt,” “rug pull” and “HODL” into what it actually means.
Who it is for

Three places the jargon hits.

01

Reading Welcome to Trading

Built as its companion. Keep it open beside the book and any term that stops you is one page away.

02

Following videos and Discords

“Confluence,” “VWAP,” “whale alert,” “rekt.” Look it up once, then follow the rest of the conversation instead of nodding along.

03

Opening a broker's app

Stop-limit, good-till-cancelled, margin, leverage. Know what each button and warning means before real money is behind it.
