Dear Traders, Because of an invitation from Peter Tuchman of the New York Stock Exchange, I spent Friday and the weekend in The Big Apple. It was a great visit. I received a tour of the floor and I was able to discuss some potential trading education opportunities. The massive influx of new traders since the pandemic began has been of concern to many professionals. These novices are the ones who are apt to trade recklessly,...

Dear Traders, If you ask Americans what their favorite Constitutional Amendment is, you will no doubt receive different responses depending on who you ask. If you ask Norm, for example, the answer is obviously the Second, protecting the right to keep and bear arms. Should you ask Peter, if he was American, he probably most gravitates toward the First, which guarantees free speech. That is why he is the "Head of HR", and does not allow...

I thought I would share my 3 year story, and lessons learned with you. Today, I have a great side business, day trading along with you (and team). However, it did not come with extremely low lows, and high highs. Now that I feel somewhat more experienced, I realize that the journey I went through is not atypical. I started with Bear Bull Traders in 2019. I sought to learn a new skill. So with $30k, I...

Dear Traders, What a crazy morning to wake up and find several stocks gapping up with heavy volume. But the prominent news of the day was Hertz ordering 100,000 Teslas in what Bloomberg has called a “car-rental industry shake-up”. Tesla gapped up significantly and moved toward another all-time high of $1,000. Please watch the recap that Brian and I have posted here. You will see where we did an excellent 1-minute Opening Range Breakup on Tesla. Speaking...

Dear Traders, Just when you thought you’d seen it all this year, President Donald Trump’s new media company, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), is merging with Digital World Acquisition Corp. (DWAC). The company will be branching off in several directions and intends to challenge popular social media platforms and streaming services like Twitter, Amazon, Netflix, and Disney. The new social media platform will be called Truth Social. DWAC skyrocketed well over 1000% in the last few...

Dear Traders, I am writing this letter to you with some excellent news. First though, our very own Thor Young was invited to the New York Stock Exchange and received a tour of the NYSE’s trading floor. He was also able to discuss many important technical aspects of trading with designated market makers (the people who once were referred to by the NYSE as specialists). I know Thor deepened his knowledge of how the market works...

Dear Traders, I hope everyone had a good weekend and that you are starting to get ready for Halloween! The market gapped down significantly because of slower than expected GDP figures from China but it has quickly recovered the losses. As I am writing this newsletter, QQQ and SPY are moving toward all-time highs. This amazing volatility has made it an incredible world to trade in. We are also heading into the earnings season, with Tesla...

Dear Traders, I hope everyone is on course for a great trading week. I am writing today’s newsletter on my flight from London to Vancouver. I am (almost!) back home from a 2-week vacation, a meeting related to work, and a race in Europe. During this time, I was able to visit southern Spain, Portugal, London, and Scotland. I met with traders in all of these countries, and I was amazed that over 35 traders attended...

I’ve been a cop for nearly 25 years. Most of my career I have worked assignments targeting gang and narcotics. In 2019 I was involved in a shooting where I was injured, and my department ultimately tried to fire me. As I was home recovering from injuries, I knew I needed to begin looking for the possibility of starting a new career. I was devastated. As I spent time recovering and in the “waiting game...

Hello Andrew, Thank you for your regular emails. I read them all, and always garnish tid bits of wisdom and/or encouragement. We met at Thor's 40th birthday bash. I was very impressed that when we met, you remembered me from previous emails I had sent you months before the July NYC meet up. It meant a lot to me that you remembered me. Trading can be a lonely endeavor. I struggle to trade and participate in the...
