Happy New Year!

2025 In Review and New Changes Coming Soon.

Happy New Year, Trading Fam!

2025 has been an exciting year with lots of lessons learned. Through success and failure, we have all learned together as I continued my technical analysis and posted all of my trades publicly for historical record.

In this last year, I have been appreciative of all the tremendous support. I’ll be honest, even with the success of my stock portfolio (up 47%), there have been times in which I have questioned, “Is this really something that I want to continue to pursue publicly”? I have doubted, but in each instance, one of my followers has always come through with a comment or direct message, thanking me for what I do, encouraging me in my skill set, or confirming continued effort. Some of you have even continued to support me through a paid subscription. This is not required to view my content, but you all have still donated monetarily just to let me know that my content is of value to you. All of these gestures or feedback have been just enough to keep me moving forward, and I really am thankful to all of you for this continued support. It meant a lot and kept me moving forward.

In 2026, I want to move forward even more with some new ideas. I believe my followers will find added value in one or all of these ideas. Here are three that I plan to move forward with into the beginning of next year:

Number One.

I have now closed the code on my indicator. This means that I can now share the indicator with you on TradingView. I have named it the “Pivot Zones” indicator. You will see a new tab at the top of this site linking you to a brief overview of the indicator. For those not familiar with it, I plan to release a few educational videos or posts on how to utilize the indicator soon. I will announce an official sale date sometime in February or March of this year. In the meantime, the indicator will go through beta stage testing by a few select members who will be contacted soon. Anyone who is currently a paying member will have the option to become a beta tester.

Those of you who don’t want to wait until the beta stage of testing is complete and educational videos are released may purchase now if desired. Just hit the “Subscribe now” button and select the “Buy My Indicator” option, but please ensure you are a TradingView member first. You must have a TradingView account for the indicator to work.

Number Two.

Some of you may have no interest in the indicator. Instead, you are hoping for automated trading. I have just the thing for you. I am currently experimenting with an app that will make my trades for you. I set up the portfolio, and you follow with a designated deposit amount of your choosing. All trades are taken care of for you. I will continue to use my indicator to find good entries. I will trade these stocks in the portfolio. And your money follows exactly as I trade and diversify.

There are a couple of caveats to this option. First, you will have to pay a small fee to the app store to become a member. Second, there are limited assets available at this time, which means that there may be a few trades that will not be available through this platform. And third, there are limited actions available for the investment portfolio. I cannot short, leverage, trade futures, etc. I can only long available stock options. While I am certain that I will still remain just as successful, it is worth noting for your information if you are considering this option.

I will be announcing when copy-trading becomes available to you with this option, along with the name of the app to be used, within the next month or two.

Number Three.

This year, we learned a ton about my new indicator. Potentially, the biggest lesson learned is that the indicator works best on high market cap assets with high trade volume. This ruled out many of the altcoins that I had been trading in the past years. In fact, it ruled out most. For this reason, I made the decision to close my crypto portfolio and only trade stocks. Large cryptos will eventually have an ETF traded on exchanges, and we can use the indicator in these instances to trade these cryptos. Since I am only relying on the indicator to trade at this point, I decided to stay away from the rest of crypto for trading purposes.

On the stock side, I continued to put out trade alerts for free and for public accessibility and historical record viewing purposes. I wanted to prove that the indicator really does what it says it does on the box. To date, the indicator has increased our portfolio by 47%. During the same time, the S&P had only increased by 21%. And we did this with almost half of our cash sitting on the sidelines most of the time! You can view all trades, current and historical, here:

While I plan to continue to publish occasional trades for free subscribers, paying members will now become the only ones able to see all trade alerts. In this way, I am able to give back to those who have supported me through their voluntary paid subscription.

As always, free subscribers will continue to receive the same great macro-trends and technical analysis. 2026 promises to be another exciting and promising year, so stay tuned for more great technical analysis on the dollar, VIX, SPY, BTC, and more.

I look forward to implementing all the above changes very soon and hope you will find the new indicator and service offering as valuable as I know it is.

Happy New Year! May all your trading dreams come true.
