Dear Traders, Happy Friday! John and I posted our first ever recap together. I traded the Chinese stocks BABA and NIO, and John traded MRNA and RIVN. You can watch our recap here. The interesting part about our recap is that I could have almost perfectly guessed how John traded without seeing his trades because […]
Dear Traders, Happy Fed meeting and interest rate hike day! The market has moved quite high as I am writing this newsletter, and many of us executed some very nice trades on BABA. You can watch the recap that Brian and I posted here. You may be wondering this morning: Why are Chinese stocks ripping […]
Dear Traders, The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index, which tracks Chinese shares listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, has collapsed for two consecutive days now. Today, in its most volatile trading day ever, it sank 6.6%. This meltdown is primarily due to China’s policy clampdown under the “common prosperity” mantra, more cities being locked […]
Dear Traders, Welcome to another day of market volatility. EU stocks gained overnight, but Chinese and Hong Kong stocks (such as BABA and JD) sold off heavily with a new wave of lockdowns in China. Also impacted were companies (like AAPL) which have significant Chinese exposure. Brian and I traded NIO short at the Open, […]
Dear Traders, The Chinese meltdown continues as I am writing this newsletter. With BABA and JD collapsing in the US markets, other Chinese companies as well as American companies with huge exposure in China, such as Apple, are also under pressure. Nevertheless, volatility is excellent news for traders. Today, I traded BABA for a nice […]
Dear Traders, Good day! It’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation report day! This morning, we executed several amazing reversals on AMD, BABA, and TQQQ in the chatroom with Brian. You can watch our recap here plus a short video of a tour of the office. We have a new photographer on board to provide higher […]
Dear Traders, Happy International Women’s Day to all of the amazing BBTLadies who are part of our community. Thank you for trading with us. I managed to trade this week, and my recap on the exceptional reversal I did on TQQQ from Buenos Aires can be seen here. I had one of the most profitable […]
Dear Traders, I am writing this email to you as I travel from the southernmost tip of South America (Ushuaia, Argentina) to El Chaltén, a village within Argentina’s Santa Cruz province, which is in the heart of Patagonia. Over the weekend, I completed the hardest single day Ultramarathon I have done thus far. It was […]
Dear Traders, The dark shadow of war is now over Eastern Europe. Russian forces are continuing their attacks with the fighting getting closer and closer to the capital, Kyiv. Ukraine’s military has successfully stopped Russia from achieving its goals on the first day of the assault. The U.S., Europe, and other countries announced new sanctions […]
Dear Traders, I finally managed to trade today after a 48-hour flight down to Patagonia. I am now in the city of Ushuaia, Argentina, one of the most southern inhabited regions of our planet, some 800 miles (1,300 km) north of the Antarctic Circle. The Antarctic Peninsula itself is only some 620 miles (1,000 km) […]
Dear Traders, I am writing this newsletter from Buenos Aires, Argentina, where I escaped World War 3. After Putin ordered troops to enter regions of Eastern Europe, I thought for certain that a nuclear war was about to be launched and thus, where better to survive it and stay alive, than in southern Argentina and […]
Dear Traders, We have ended this week with another volatile day, where some of the big tech names dropped over 20%. ROKU and DraftKings (DKNG) have lost over 25% as I write this newsletter. The market remains in turmoil due in part to the geopolitical uncertainty in Eastern Europe and the pending increases in interest […]
Dear Traders, As I write this newsletter, the market has sold off over 1.5%, but I am not really sure what the state of the market will be like when you are reading this. Yesterday, the market was down over 1% and then rallied back to green. Geopolitical uncertainty and concerns about inflation are in […]
Dear Traders, The Russians did not attack, oh wait, they will, not now, but later on Wednesday, perhaps. The Russian troops have left, or have they, it looks like they are making a U-turn, who knows, only Putin knows, maybe. I assume that you must be frustrated. Virtually everyone, whether they are a trader or […]
Dear Traders, I hope everyone had an incredible Valentine’s Day dinner with their loved ones. As you can see in the picture below, I celebrated the night with some candles. Putin has not attacked Ukraine and instead has apparently removed some forces from the border. It thankfully seems that tensions may very well be easing […]
Dear Traders, Happy Valentine’s Day! In the chatroom, I made only one trade this morning and it was amazing. I have posted my recap on my AMD trade here. It was a very nice ABCD Pattern that later turned into an excellent 9/20 TradeBook strategy play. In world news, Russia did not attack Ukraine over […]
Dear Traders, Today, Thor and I have posted what in my opinion is one of the most important recaps thus far in 2022. Please watch it here. Many new traders will wonder if a Stock in Play should be long or short at the Open. The answer to that question lies in your trade management. […]
Dear Traders, Happy inflation report day! At 8:30am ET, the CPI numbers came out and they were 9.2% more than anticipated, like 0.2%. Reaction was quick in the premarket, with a sharp drop of over 2%, but as I write these words, the recovery seems to be equally quick at the Open, with all the […]
Dear Traders, I hope you are having a better day than I am. I got really chopped up at the Open and had to unfortunately take some heavy losses. You can watch the recap that Brian and I posted here. Tomorrow is when the CPI figures for January will be released, and they will tell […]
Dear Traders, I hope everyone had a good weekend. We have recorded another episode of AfterHours with Traders. At your convenience, please take the time to view it and in particular let me know what you think about Brian’s colored socks! Today, we executed some excellent trades on BABA, AMD, and PTON. You can watch […]
