๐Ÿ“ˆ Trading Strategy & Execution

  • Operate a dedicated investment-spec-gamble account with smaller position sizing and wider stops, differing from the primary trade account. Maintain transparency by disclosing ownership of mentioned names 1.
  • Locked in $AVGO paydays for strong percentage gains, securing a cushion for future plays 2.
  • Still holding $AVGO for further upside 3.
  • Systematically review charts, having scrolled 112 daily charts without immediate opportunities, now focusing on names that reported earnings in December from a list of 85 4.
  • Booked profits on a “rung of the swing ladder” in $ZS, while maintaining core trade shares 5.
  • Allow $MU to run, having tightened stops following new highs; the ride continues with varied stop-loss placements 6.
  • Initiated positions in $META, selling Cash-Secured Puts (CSPs) and adding speculative “yolo calls,” anticipating a move beyond $700+ with high confidence (8.5/10) 7.

๐ŸŒ Macro & Geopolitics

  • Gold and silver are aggressively deflating the dollar. This trend appears irreversible, fueled by the underlying geopolitical struggle between China and the United States 8.
  • Given that nothing has fundamentally changed, buy Peru and Chile assets 9.

๐Ÿ’ฐ Precious Metals Outlook

  • Silver and gold withstood significant sell pressure before options expiration. The market has passed a key test, with no crash. Expecting a “dovish” FOMC outcome tomorrow, despite no rate cuts, as current market expectations lean too hawkish 10.
  • Silver faces unrealistic price targets and increased short interest. Anticipate choppy price action through January, with a higher probability of a sell-off in February 11.

๐Ÿ“ˆ Equity Specific Insights

  • Observed a divergence in pre-earnings run-ups among the Mag 7: $MSFT, $AAPL, and $META saw rallies, but $TSLA lagged 12.
  • $MU hit another ATH, yet maintains a sub-10 forward P/E, indicating potential undervaluation despite strong price action 13.
  • $NVDA is on a launchpad. Expect a breakout to $200, then $210, supported by chart resilience and breaking a mini resistance line 14.
  • $AMZN is well-positioned for the new digital economy by vertically integrating its AI stack, from consumer demand (Alexa+, Rufus) upwards 15.

๐Ÿš€ Broader Market Index Outlook

  • $QQQ is breaking out. It will eventually hit new all-time highs, despite being the only major index not to have done so in the last three months 16.

๐Ÿ“‰ Market Sentiment & Dynamics

  • Smart money is currently dumping bags onto retail investors 17.
