What’s your career? Your job? Your vocation?
I bet you know things about it that others wouldn’t, even if they read a book about it
That’s because you live it every day, you know the ins and the outs
Your aware of the little things, the unseen nuances that someone new, or just learning about, might not recognize

Being a professional market participant is not different
And there are HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE differences between those that get up early and follow market movements in the Pre Market and those that don’t
The Pre Markets can be tricky, they can fool you, and they can even “fib to you” sometimes
And then there are days like today where you have been there, seen that before, you already have a strong sense for what’s to come. We nailed it with that today
This morning I shared that we would not be putting on any new trades except for $SPY ( ▲ 0.63% )  
That was in part because the trades that we already had in place were going strong, and that, well, we were witnessing what looked to be a slow day, and we got it

$GOOG ( ▼ 0.22% ) did not go to “da moon” it was held back by $INTC ( ▼ 0.83% ) fall
We exited and will be showing new entries for it on Sunday night. We like GOOG here, we like it for a longer term play also

$AMZN ( ▼ 0.17% ) did decent
$JPM ( ▲ 0.58% ) and banks in general are a little concerning here… Investors would like to see some advancement to show more stabilization within the economy
$COST ( ▲ 1.35% ) somethings not right, not with the stock so to say, but yeah, with the stock…..
One thing I like about it is that it is steady here at the $970.00 area
If you recall that was the “Magnet” in times past
$META ( ▲ 0.86% ) our META trade is paying well, very well, still rockin it and plan on talking about it on Sunday night too

Tonight I’m going to go to an art show, to be around other artists and hopefully get inspired from their works … One thing about artists is energy, we connect, and then grow with each others energy and support

The markets are starting to show some positive energy lately, and we are going to utilize every part of it that we can

Go get outside in nature this weekend, walk, hike, move, you won’t regret it
