Most people try to predict the market… but what if that’s the wrong game?

In this episode of Cash Flow Academy, Andy Tanner, Cory Halliday, and Noah Davidson reveal how professional traders use probability—not prediction—to win consistently. Instead of betting on market direction, they trade ranges—just like a casino sets odds and plays the math.

Andy introduces a fascinating tool: the Galton Board, a physical model that visually proves how consistent probability distributions can be. It’s not about “being right,” it’s about understanding where the odds are in your favor—and setting up trades to capitalize on that.

This episode breaks down:
✅ Why directional trading fails most beginners
✅ How pros think like insurance companies
✅ Why selling options is like collecting premiums
✅ How to avoid emotional trading and focus on math

If you want to stop gambling and start trading like the pros, this episode is your turning point.
