Are you going to have another introductory trial period?

Time is my biggest constraint during the day.

If folks are entering and exiting quickly during the first 30min to hour of the trading day, it might be worthwhile for me.

This describes how I am using it, since my regular work is busy now. I am not following every day, but when I do I learn things and often pick up a good lead.

China chokes off graphite. Maybe helps our favorite graphite company?

China will curb exports of key EV battery material from December 1. Western electric vehicle makers rush to secure graphite supplies. #geoeconomics #Velsig https://t.co/PeZGjZKzS7

China announced on Friday that it will require export permits for graphite, a key material for electric vehicle (EV) batteries, starting Dec. 1. The country is the world's top graphite producer, and the move could spur procurement difficulties for global EV makers.

Regulations will be introduced based on the Export Control Law and others that tighten export controls on strategic goods, preventing Chinese companies from exporting unless they go through the authority's examination process and obtain permission.

Graphite, one of the most widely used materials for EVs, is used in automotive anodes, the negatively charged portion of the battery.

China makes up about 65% of global production of this key material, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. In particular, Chinese companies are believed to hold over 80% of market share in negatively charged materials for automotive batteries, in which high-purity graphite is essential.

Sorry about that, when I reread, I didn't like how it was worded, and accidentally deleted the chart as well. Don't like to lead people astray as well, because as good of a theory is, doesn't really matter if they can't take out a support. But the general rule was, plus or minus three days from the full moon, you tend to get reversals if at support/resistance. Full moon was Sunday night/Monday, so Wednesday/Thursday would be the last day for this idea to work. Doesn't mean go buy puts though, need to see support break first. I have been waiting this week, and shorting pops, but no follow through to the downside as of yet, we will see next few days. Also, reversal could jjust be a pullback for a Santa rally, etc.

I'm just messing with you brother.

Looks like ol Bill Ackman is on the heavy artillery train too…

It's been no secret that I've despised him ever since his irrational Covid paranoid interview, yet his hedge fund profited by the fear he perpetuated. That said, he has earned some of my respect back by leading firms to blackball ignorant Ivy league students that publicly stand for Hamas' right to murder Israeli civilians. He stood up to the arrogant dumbasses in the mob that felt untouchable. He built a coalition of powerful players on Wall Street that severely limited their opportunities.

SPY about to fill the overnight gap...and then escalator back up!

Boom.

Bought some SOXL yesterday, too.

This market is setting up for a reversal of some sort. 4350 level looks to be the critical area.

so, you are thinking we have a sizable pullback and 4350 is the critical level that needs to hold? are you thinking this happens BEFORE year end? or is this a 2024 pullback, in your opinion?

I'm setting a tight stop just FYI. The big thing with this and why it's cratered the last year is that the big contract/money for it pulled out. I think last year and it was Shell that pulled out of its agreement. LNG facilities sign front loaded agreements before they build the infrastructure. Without that, they now need some other entity to step in.

I don't want you to lose money on blindly following so wanted to give a snippet of backstory on why it's fallen the way it has and why I plan to keep this on a short leash.

Making a move today, up almost 13% so a little green on these shares. There is about 5.2k in volume on January $1 calls which is interesting. Could be a little of selling premium or something else but interesting nonetheless.

Can't remember the last time all my holdings in my 401k were green.

Often one of my two smaller holdings, either my completion index fund or my company stock, was in the red.

Both finally flipped green today.

Full moon, candles, chanting? **** it, let's bring in heavy artillery.

If the proof wasn't on the chart, I would never believe it either.

The moon gave a little over 50 points, unusually small, but the way it goes.

Big move coming one way or the other out of this consolidated on SPX.

Well played.

$UNH, $LLY, $MRK, $JNJ - Not going to go into detail on these, but I think it's worth noting that the healthcare sector lit up like Clark Griswald's house today.

"Hey VL, who's Clark Griswald?"

I can't do this today.

Yup. JNJ up another $1.35 premarket. On the way!

$RIG on the daily is pushing closer to the top of their Bollinger band...

But if you look at the monthly chart for them - they look really primed to have a run back into their Darvis box from September.

I have added to my December $6.5 calls and my Jul 2024 $7 calls.

Shorting $SNAP. So this means it will hit 15

This rally needs to stop before I do something crazy and actually retire early instead of always talking about it
