Financial Freedom is not free but the treasure is worth the pursuit!

About me:
Welcome to Not Your Advisor.

Location: Wall St, New York City

I believe the financial markets can unlock financial freedom through hard work and continuous learning. I know this because I am on this journey myself; I am no longer tied to a W-2 career and am managing my own wealth and retirement accounts. My goal is to build a community of like-minded individuals where we can share knowledge and learn from each other.

Recently a paying subscriber noted in the private group chat he has begun booking 300% gains on PLTR from less than a year ago, when I alerted about its break out setup in the $20s, $30s.


$PLTR Palantir is up over 440% since my Stock Spotlight last March

$PLTR Palantir is up over 440% since my Stock Spotlight last March

If you joined me on the break out, you have made sizable gains. Palantir is at an important stage of it’s ascent. Here is where it may go next with my analysis.


Here is another example in $APP:

I recommended Applovin $APP in $40s. Up 450% 🎧 #323 (Nov 7)

November 7, 2024
I recommended Applovin $APP in $40s. Up 450% 🎧 #323 (Nov 7)

I indicated back in Jan and Feb the APP setup for paying subscribers. Proof below.


But please note, I am not offering a stock picking service! While many of the ideas went up 30%, 50%, 100%, and 800%+, my goal is to help others find setups on their own and obtain a unique lens into observing and analyzing the global markets. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.

This will not be easy! There are no magic signals to upload to your charting software or promises of turning $1000 into $100k. It will require work, objectivity, and self knowledge.

“Thank you so much for everything you have taught me. I don't talk much anymore since I am busy watching charts and doing everything you taught with the breakouts and volume and stops. I hit my all time high today in the market! Some was recovery but much was from my day trading and scalping for extra money.”

- JRoth (Paying Subscriber)


"As a subscriber for nearly a year I had the opportunity to experience your thought process. Invaluable. No nonsense. No guesswork. The amount of data is crunched every day is obvious from the podcasts! The chat room is connected to the pulse of the market. Full of trading ideas and I can find my own ways too. In fact, NYUGrad is giving tools and freedom, not advice! PRO"

- Turbolaser Whack (Paying Subscriber)


"Your ability to put snaps of the market together are extraordinary. I spend most of my time in the futures markets but you are one profile that everyone could use. Succinct and chocked full with info that is USABLE - you rock."
- Anne-Marie Baiynd (Paying Subscriber)


"I've had a free account for a few months. Even with insufficient time to read everything that has crossed my desk, there have been a number that are just too good to not support further and wade into the deep end. thank you"

- Mike (Paying Subscriber)


“Thank you for doing such a terrific job on reporting the true state of the market, you’ve definitely helped me navigate the many ups and downs! And I definitely plan to continue my paid subscription with you!” -Dan S.


After thanking him for upgrading from free subscription…

“I wouldn’t have if I didn’t think it was worth it. With all the great work and insight your efforts are must read for anyone following markets. Not only that, but your voice reminds me of my favorite trader over the years, so despite working mostly alone, your daily recap brings me back to the trading floor. I add that your interaction with followers says it all -Top-Shelf. I hope to start posting on my own soon - I am a longtime HF fleece vest guy mostly trafficking in Commodities/Equities. Thanks again!”

Upgrade to Premium


“I've been following NYUGrad for a number of years over on Slope. I pre-committed to his subscription here and have been quite happy with his perspective. I certainly don't execute every trade idea, but I've made about 25% from the anonymized safety stock noted above - it's one of my core holdings now. His paid podcast is well worth the cost of entry.”

- John Sep 26, 2024 (Paying Subscriber)


Hi NYU-G, Please keep sharing your insights! And premium membership has already paid off for me.

I sold out all tech positions on April 11, right before the slide began, using your charting teachings and insights to validate my gut intuition. Thank you for hammering home,"book your gains".

Really appreciate your insights about the balance areas and how to read the charts. You are helping so many of us so much more than you can ever imagine. I've learned more from you in the last month - so grateful to have found your substack!

-Evvie J (Paying Subscriber)


“Hi NYUGrad, just wanted to say how much I appreciate your being my mentor. I wish our path's crossed years ago, I would likely be more independent.

The balance area, moving averages, breadth and volume are all I watch now. Also retracements help. I am drawing lots of horizontal lines lately. Fits in with the stage 1-4 of a stocks base, rise, topping and decline.

The hardest thing for me to overcome is standing back after a big move, which I have already cashed in, and not try again for that last few %. like a month ago.

I lived thru 99 and 07, so I should know how this movie goes forward. But its those damn emotions (fomo) that constantly need work, that’s why I like your format of drilling it in. It really does work.

Anyway, I am doing much better, thanks so much for the confidence to keep with it.”

J.S (Paying Subscriber)


Thanks for consistent, quality content. It’s educational and has paid for itself several times over.

Even though I don’t actively trade, there’s so much usefulness in the daily podcast for navigating the bigger picture for my 401(k) and IRA. Often you touch on factors that will impact my clients at my day job, so it’s useful there too.

Finally, and perhaps most importantly, there’s a “Zen and the art of” quality to your world. it’s educational, elucidating, and exists at the intersection of theory and practice. Thoughtful and worthwhile!

Upgrade to Premium


I have been a premium subscriber for less than 2 months, and NYUGrad’s discussion of the long term cup and handle chart on silver was compelling to me. My position in silver has already earned me multiples of the annual subscription fee. Totally worth the investment.

-Lisa P. (Paying Subscriber)


Hi NYUGrad!

I hope you are doing fine!

I got your podcast/email download right before taking off on a flight to Asia on Saturday, and was very happy to have it as the first listening of the trip.

Thank you very much for the very useful updates on Gold stocks and the overall market.

Best wishes,

F.B (Paying Subscriber)
