“A good tool improves the way
you work.
A great tool improves the way you think."

Jeff Duntermann

“A book, when used correctly,
will become a weapon of mass intention."

The market is an arcade game like any other. You put your money in the slot, and the game begins. However, if it’s played badly, this game has the capability of taking you out with one shot. But if it’s played right, it can make you wealthy far beyond the furthest reaches of your imagination.

For this to happen, you must change your perception on how you see the market. You must remove all the components from a chart that adds bias or can be a distraction; you must ditch the indicators, or at least change how you use them; then you must learn how to use a new and much simpler set of tools.

'Applecore: Trade with extreme prejudice', is a unique book of rules on how to play the game. It’s not a cheat code – it’s just a better way of using the controller.

"I would've never thought of looking at the market this way - EXCELLENT!"

How to 'see' the market

"The wealth you are looking for lies within the work you are avoiding.
Analyse the charts!"

This chapter guides you in what to look for and what you should be paying attention to when analysing a market’s behaviour; how correctly ‘scaling’ your charts will give you the best set-up for assessing price behaviour without additional indicators; how getting intimate and focussing on only one or two instruments will enable you to have a better understanding of the nuances in each of their behaviour patterns which in turn could give you better opportunities to trade them; how to identify the best timeframe and price scale for the instrument being observed; why the traditional candlestick is useless most of the time and how you can take advantage of any market’s ‘self-fulfilling prophecy’ behaviour; how to better ‘see’ the chart and indicator data; how to identify the ‘perfect’ setting for any indicator; and how to identify the correlation between a market’s behaviour and any indicator’s settings to eliminate many ‘false signals’ which they produce.

Tools of the trade

"Give ordinary people the right tools, and they will design and build extraordinary things."

Neil Gershenfield

Get introduced to a new set of tools and learn how to use existing tools in a new way which will give you a real ‘edge’ when analysing and trading the market.

This chapter also covers; how to correctly read and understand volume behaviour; how levels-of-interest (also known as 'support and resistance' levels) should be created; how to plot more accurate trendlines off a single candle which price is more likely to follow in the future; how to set up your trendline patterns more accurately using a single trendline angle which is determined by a dominant timeframe and not price, and how to identify those dominant timeframes; how to identify consolidation zones as they occur, more accurately estimate when they will end and which way price is more likely to go after that consolidation; how to identify behavioural cycles, predict the next cycle and when those cycles are more likely to end; how to see when the ‘force’ behind a trend switches to another ‘force’; how to identify momentum without indicators; how to see that price and volume behaviour of the past will ALWAYS influence the price and volume behaviour in the future; and

how rescaling your chart and changing timeframes can present you with potentially better trade entries and exits.

The only commodity you can't trade

"The house always wins
if you're unprepared."

Jim Cramer

‘Time is precious’ and is the most important component of any market. This chapter helps you to identify the best times to trade; the best timeframes to trade on; how to prepare for those (un)expected financial events; how to identify unique behaviour and mini-trends which nearly always occur at specific times or during specific cycles throughout the day; how to identify ‘leading’ instruments to the instrument you want to analyse and/or trade; and how to create more trading opportunities.

Time to rob a bank

"Put the weapons, masks and bags in the van.
We leave in exactly fifteen minutes."

Not a strategy, but how to build one for yourself. This chapter explains what is required to develop, build and improve a trading strategy; how and when to employ it; how to stick strictly to your strategy no matter what; how to set up stop-losses and take-profits, including understanding ‘spreads’ and how these effect your profit and loss; how to use time, volume and/or volatility as a form of stop-loss or position exit; how to improve your position entries and exits; the ‘only’ use for a risk-reward ratio; how to correctly back-test and forward-test a strategy by running it on historical data which directly relates to the specific constraints and conditions of your strategy; how to collect and manage ‘test’ and ‘training’ data for your strategy; and even how to select the best instruments to trade and the broker to be able to trade them with.

Stay positive

"How much 'measured' risk are you willing to take to reap an 'immeasurable' reward?"

The amount you risk is down to you as an individual – there is no one set rule, it ultimately comes down to what you can afford to lose if things turn to shit. But keeping your account in the ‘black’ is essential if you want to be a successful trader and how you manage your money when trading is key to this.

So this chapter covers; how to develop and build your money-management strategy which is made up of how to assess yourself and understand your perception of risk; how to create your trading objective; understand the methods for growing your account which includes compounding your account and how to setup the initial lot size then adjust it based upon winning and/or losing streaks; how to protect your account; how and when to reinvest; and how and when to withdraw what you have earned.

This chapter also gets you thinking about how the ‘indirect’ components of the money-management strategy can have an effect on how much you could win or lose such as - the effectiveness of the trading strategy itself, margin size, spread size, lot-size limitations governed by the broker, your ability to remain focused, and even the time of day you intend to trade.

"Inaction breeds doubt and fear.
Action breeds confidence and courage."

Dale Carnegie

So, this chapter shows you how to assess and develop your environment and yourself as well as how to prepare your emotions and mind-set for trading;

it gets you thinking about your lifestyle - your diet and exercise regime; how over-exposing yourself to the market can be good for dealing with your ‘fear’ of the market; how to identify your performance peak so you know how long you can efficiently trade for; how to deal with wins and losses; how to identify when your emotions begin to take control and how to return to an emotional baseline; how to turn the act of trading into a game so you can develop your skills as a trader on a subconscious level whilst reducing the stress on your body and mind; and how you could use abbreviations to remember your trading strategy making it easier to stick to – especially when under pressure.

Essentially, being a successful trader is just as much about having a good trading and money-management strategy as it is about being in the right mind-set and being aware of and in control of your emotions at all times.

When you sit down and trade for the first time, the ‘real you’ shows up to the party - and many traders don’t like who shows up. They believe that they know themselves until they are put under pressure and have their own money at risk which often leads to them becoming overly emotional, making irrational decisions and taking uncalculated risks. To develop this control you need to learn to know oneself, and of course, trade with real money. So, this chapter shows you how to assess and develop your environment and yourself as well as how to prepare your emotions and mind-set for trading; it gets you thinking about your lifestyle - your diet and exercise regime; how over-exposing yourself to the market can be good for dealing with your ‘fear’ of the market; how to identify your performance peak so you know how long you can efficiently trade for; how to deal with wins and losses; how to identify when your emotions begin to

Some questions have answers, some don't

"Without questions, there is no learning."

What market or trading type is it for?

Although the NASDAQ100 and CFD trading is often referenced throughout the book, the behaviour of each financial instrument is very similar to one another. So, the methods set forth will be relevant to most instruments regardless of asset class, analysis and/or trading type.

What languages are available?

For the moment, 'Applecore: Trade with extreme prejudice' is only availble in English. Although, we are considering options to release it in other languages in the future - these languages have not yet been confirmed.

Other Applecore books

COMING SOON!

When you’re done questioning the markets, there are plenty of other comfortable lies waiting to be ruined. Applecore does not stop at charts. The next books move into strategy, psychology, dyslexia, invention, curiosity and the uncomfortable possibility that most people are not confused — they are just very well trained to miss the point.

Question your actions

How to rob the banks
(and other financial institutions)

If your current trading strategy involves waiting for confirmation, panicking three minutes later and calling it “discipline”, this book may be useful. It is not about walking into a bank wearing a balaclava, waving a shotgun around and shouting, "Everybody on the floor! This is a robbery!", which is disappointing for the title but better for legal reasons. It is about building trading strategies around time, volume, planned duration, separate buy/sell rules and knowing when to get the fuck out before the shit hits the fan.

Warning: This book is calm, methodical... and mildly offensive to bad habits, comfortable assumptions, and bullshit.

OTHER UNSUPERVISED IDEAS:

Question your experiences

wi3RD rw0Ng - WoRkign fiEn

An almost-biography about dyslexia, music, invention, failure, markets and the strange relief of discovering that thinking differently was not the problem. It was the only part that kept working.

Question yourself

Your personality won't save you

A book about labels, self-awareness, astrology-adjacent excuses and the deeply human talent for calling bias “research”. Useful for anyone who has ever described themselves accurately, then used that description as a prison sentence.

Question everything

The ant and the apple

A children’s story about curiosity, courage, patience and asking better questions. Perfect for children. Slightly awkward for adults who spent years learning how to stop.

Other Applecore books

COMING SOON!

Your personality won't save you.

Anxious. Emotional. Logical. Reactive. Scared. Calm.

Pick whichever label fits the mood.

None of them are you.

They're just convenient explanations—ways to avoid questioning anything underneath. You've described yourself into a corner and called it self-awareness.

This book takes every label you've learned to identify with and shows you exactly how they've been helping you stay the same. Personality types, astrological traits, tendencies—insightful, and also incredibly convenient.

But once you actually look closely, it becomes obvious your thinking isn't nearly as objective as you'd like to believe. You shape decisions to suit yourself and frame questions to protect what you already think. Then you call it research, truth-seeking, 'the answer'—even awareness.

It isn't.

Strip all of that away and what you're left with isn't pretty. It isn't comfortable. But at least it's yours. And for the first time in your life, you can stop defending who you think you are... and start discovering why you became them.

How to rob the banks.
(and other financial institutions)

If your current trading strategy involves “waiting for confirmation” and then panicking three minutes later, this might help—or it might expose a few things you'd rather ignore.

Before anyone reports you, this book has absolutely nothing to do with walking into a bank wearing a balaclava, waving a shotgun around and shouting, "Everybody on the floor! This is a robbery!" Besides, that's reckless, illegal, and statistically a terrible trading strategy.

This is about something far more effective.

How to Rob the Banks shows you how to build trading strategies that don't rely on luck, hindsight or emotional coping mechanisms. By separating buy and sell entry rules, exit rules, calculating risk, and replacing what most traders mistake for structure with a defined framework built on time, volume and angles, you'll learn how to test ideas without lying to yourself, choose timeframes that actually fit both you and the market you're trading, and adopt a discipline most traders avoid—building strategies around planned position durations instead of impulse. It also questions one of the biggest assumptions in trading: whether entries should be based on price at all. And—when it inevitably goes wrong—know exactly when to get the fuck out.

Warning: This book is calm, methodical... and mildly offensive to bad habits, comfortable assumptions, and bullshit.

The ant and the apple.

Congratulations! You successfully taught your child to ask questions.
Now try not to spend the next eighteen years teaching them to stop.

The Ant and the Apple is the story of one tiny ant who dares to wonder if there might be more beyond the trail everyone else insists he should follow.

It's a story about curiosity, courage, kindness, patience and discovering that the greatest treasures grow when they're shared.

Perfect for children.
Slightly awkward for the grown-ups reading it.

Wi3rd rw0Ng – woRkinG f1nE

Some people spend their lives trying to fit in. Others eventually realise the shape was wrong in the first place.

Wi3rd rw0Ng – woRkinG f1nE is an almost-biography about dyslexia, music, invention, bad decisions, misplaced confidence and an unhealthy need to take things apart just to see what everyone else missed.

After trusting the experts, losing nearly everything and discovering that psychology is very good at explaining failure once it has already happened, the author turned to the markets and began rebuilding the whole thing from scratch.

That led to Applecore, a collection of indicators based on time, volume and the mildly inconvenient idea that price may not exist in the way traders think it does. Then the indicators began showing where behaviour would occur before it happened.

From markets to weather, natural events and human patterns, the same question kept returning:

What if life is not random at all—just badly understood?
