  • Chapter 7 from Short Selling Master: Identifying Chinese Stock Manipulation

    Chapter 7 from Short Selling Master: Identifying Chinese Stock Manipulation

    This episode is the audio version of a detailed video lesson from Friendly Bear University covering Chapter 7 of the book Short Selling Master.

    It’s one of the most important chapters for short sellers, focusing on how to understand and identify non-gappers — a high-level manipulation pattern (often linked to heavy, coordinated activity) that can trap traders who don’t recognize it.

    The lesson walks through real examples, explains why this setup is so dangerous, and reinforces the simple rule of staying away so you can protect capital to keep trading another day.

This podcast has been pretty amazing and you don’t even need to trade small caps to get a ton of value out of it. I was skeptical at first since I just was trying to find more podcasts aside from the common ones most traders know about. On top of being skeptical, I’m not 100% short biased so it seemed like this wouldn’t be the podcast for me; however, I was very wrong.

That said, if you do short small caps and actually listen to each episode to the end, you get so many nuggets of gold that can help you improve and more importantly, not lose money.

Since I don’t trade small caps, I have found David’s transformation that can literally be witnessed throughout each podcast is motivating and inspirational. It’s pretty rare for people to share like he has and as you get deeper into the podcasts, he begins to share even more of his history which hits hard. I love his no-shit, get down to the facts attitude while having fun whether its through his trade reviews, mentoring or interviews. The community he has also built around him is powerful and carefully selected. I for one am trying to follow those he brings on because I know that I can learn a lot now and into the future as I improve and need to adjust. You can even gain information on things outside of short selling that David finds interesting as he continues to improve himself.

David is a unique individual and puts action to his words. There are few people that have this quality and I believe it is this that allows him to not only share valuable insights from his own experiences but also to be able to relate to people on the ground level.

The podcast has great guests and goes in depth on all things relevant to trading. My favorite ones are from the Tim Challenge traders that grew a small amount of money into millions of dollars. Very inspiring stories!
