Andrew’s Newsletter

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 … Read more

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) … Read more

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 … Read more

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 … Read more

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 … Read more

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 … Read more

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 … Read more

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 … Read more

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. … Read more

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 … Read more

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 … Read more

Dear Traders, The chaos around tech earnings surprised everyone. Brian was in the office yesterday and he said that in the last 30 years he has been trading, he has not seen such earnings volatility. This morning, SNAP and F were very nice to Brian and I, and we made some great trades on them. … Read more

Dear Traders, Today, Brian and I executed two amazing trades on Facebook, both short and long, and booked superb profits! You can watch our recap here. Unlike Brian and I, Zuck is having a bad day. Yesterday, Meta (previously known as Facebook) reported their earnings, and for the time ever, their number of active users … Read more

Dear Traders, This morning, my trading took a hit with some overtrading on $AMD. I traded outside of my TradeBook and did not stop when I should have. There is a lesson to be learned in that. Brian also unfortunately did not have a stellar day. You can watch our recap here. The most noticeable … Read more

Dear Traders, What a January! I never thought I would miss 2021, but I certainly did – until last week that is. Friday, before the Close, we experienced a big rally with all indexes closing green for the week (except for the growth sector represented by IWM). Today, the market tested the low of the … Read more

Dear Traders, The market certainly sold off at the Open today but it has reversed significantly by the time I am writing this newsletter at 11am ET. Market volatility has been so high lately that it is challenging to write some commentary with any sort of confidence during market hours! Brian and I each had … Read more

Dear Traders, We had some amazing trades today in the chatroom including a short on TSLA and a reversal on AMD. Please watch the recap that Brian and I posted here. TSLA has reported some very interesting earnings, and although they had record profits, the overall fear of supply chain issues has taken them down … Read more

Dear Traders, Today, the market gapped down again and traded lower. Yesterday, it went down as low as 5% for QQQ, while reversing and closing almost green for all indexes. What a volatile time we are trading in! Brian and I traded a nice reversal around 10:15am ET on QQQ and IWM. You can watch … Read more

Dear Traders, The global bond market sell off paused yesterday as it seems not all central banks are keen to increase interest rates. The Bank of Japan Governor stated that “Raising rates is unthinkable.” Similarly, the European Central Bank President said they have “…every reason not to react as quickly…” The market quite liked this … Read more
