Trading With The Odds

What if trading wasn’t about guessing market direction—but understanding where the odds are stacked in your favor? In this episode, Andy, Corey, and Noah break down the concept of probability trading and how it can give investors a clearer edge. Using a Galton board as an analogy, they explain how predictable outcomes and distributions play a crucial role in market behavior.Corey points out that the S&P 500 typically stays within a certain range year over year—and that statistically, the odds favor positive returns. Andy shares his personal strategy of trading options on the Dow, where a large percentage of trades expired worthless by design. Together, they emphasize the power of probability over prediction, the importance of managing risk, and how understanding patterns can transform both trading and long-term investing.
