Dear Traders, MSFT earnings had a significant impact on the market. Their earnings were great, but their guidance for the future was gloomy, and that caused their 5% gain to evaporate and the market to gap down. Nevertheless, the market’s volatility continues and we saw a big bounce in the market in the afternoon. This […]
Dear Traders, It was an amazing trading day with our community in the chatroom! AMD went up 10%, NVDA went up 8%, and TSLA went up 8%. You can watch the recap that Brian and I posted here. As I wrote last week, the market is cooking something. Everything seems to be a buy these […]
Dear Traders, There are some big things happening in the market these days. The retail sales number came in yesterday at -1.5%. Considering inflation is at 7%, this reflects a significant drop in consumer spending. The economy has cooled down, and consumers have backed off. The market sold off and continues to sell off. Today, […]
Dear Traders, Happy MLK Day (one day late)! I hope everyone had a great long weekend. Today, Jarad and I traded TSLA and NVDA, and I also traded options on Amazon and NVDA. I had a very nice day, and I hope you will get a chance to review my trades in our recap on […]
Dear Traders, Happy inflation report day! Today, the inflation report came in and surprised really nobody. One argument was that the data was actually leaked beforehand. The Labor Department, which compiles and issues the data, dismissed the possibility of a leak. The market traded in a volatile fashion, with the Nasdaq moving as high as […]
Dear Traders, As I wrote not too many days ago, the market is bouncing back, in part in anticipation of tomorrow’s inflation report. Brian, Paras, Jarad, and others did some amazing trading on Amazon and Tesla in the chatroom this morning. You can watch my recap here. You will see where I had one of […]
Dear Traders, The market is ripping higher now, and Brian and I had some amazing trades on TQQQ, TSLA, and AMD. In particular, the semiconductor sector, which got really beat up last year, is leading the charge. The SOXL ETF, based on the semiconductor sector, which offers 3x leverage, is surging, and the puts that […]
Dear Traders, Happy New Year! I am back from my climbing in Argentina. On December 30, 2022, at 2pm local time, I stood on top of Mt. Aconcagua at around 7,000m (23,000 ft), the highest point in the Western Hemisphere, and in fact the highest point outside of the Himalayas range (Nepal, India, China, Pakistan). […]
Hello Traders! Norm here, writing on behalf of Andrew and the rest of the BBT team. As Andrew is gearing up to be the highest person on earth by climbing the summit of Aconcagua, I thought it would be a great idea to recap the crazy year we had and highlight what is coming next […]
Hello Bear Bull Traders! I am up in the Argentinian mountains near the 6,000m (+19,000ft) level and I am hoping to be able to push for the summit of Aconcagua. It is the biggest mountain in the Western Hemisphere and, in fact, the highest point in the world outside of the Himalayas. If the weather […]
Dear Traders, I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend and was able to spend some much-deserved time with their family and friends. As we move toward the new year, many of us will be making New Year’s resolutions, with the aim of improving ourselves in 2023. This is the time of year that you […]
Dear Traders, Today the market continued its sell-off as investors desperately search for a return. In a recessionary environment, the market has no reason to go up, but it has a good volatile path of choppiness. I hope the market stays like this: choppy but extremely volatile. Economist had a nice cover talking about how investors are stuck in finding […]
Dear Traders, Market volatility continues within the Chinese sector and, of course, as usual, with Tesla Inc. Finally, the Communist Party decided to ease their zero-COVID policy, a policy that was obviously failing. I called this last year. I’m not sure why the party did not get it. BABA has gapped up beautifully. Today, in […]
Dear Traders, Today, Chinese-based stocks were gapping up, and I had one of my best trading days in 2022 on XPEV, as the Chinese electric vehicle maker soared. The recap is full of educational material, with a focus on trading based on Nasdaq Level 2 signals. I hope you enjoy it, even though the quality […]
Dear Traders, The market dropped significantly yesterday as St. Louis Fed President James Bullard — one of the central bank’s most hawkish officials — said he thinks “markets are underpricing a little bit the risk that the FOMC will have to be more aggressive rather than less aggressive in order to contain the very substantial […]
Dear Traders, Andrew from Dubai says hi, and wishes you a great Cyber Monday! I am in Dubai, where we had a big meetup on Saturday. I met many of our exceptional traders and was impressed with their stories! The market was in turmoil this morning as news of people protesting against more restrictions in […]
Dear Traders, These days, the only things that are on the minds of people in the financial sector are the crypto crisis and the collapse of FTX. The amount of carelessness and lack of oversight is just unbelievable, especially for the United States. Former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, aka SBF, published a series of weird tweets […]
Dear Traders, I hate to say this, but overall, I think serious investors are happy that FTX has collapsed and that the crypto market has gone into a big winter. Almost by definition, something has to break or be broken in order for the Fed to actually pivot and start easing down their monetary policy. […]
Dear Traders, The crazy market volatility is continuing with a lot of potential for traders! I am back in the office now before returning to Dubai for our big meetup. Please RSVP your attendance here! Ardi from Canada and Aiman from Russia will be joining us for the meetup. The outcome of the meeting between […]
Dear Traders, I am flying back to Vancouver from Dubai today and missed trading, but once I am home, I will be trading from the office and getting ready for a week of mentorship at Peak Capital Trading. This morning, Thor and Brian traded live, and both had a good day. You can watch their […]
