Really cannot wrap my mind around this.... A friend of mind reached out to me tonight and asked me if I would help his son become a trader...I said why? He said how hard can it be Russell does it. Hmmmm...I can’t wait for this 19 year old boy to call me🤣SMH
I started trading in 1994 ( sure most were not born 😂) the one thing I can guarantee all cycles start and end the same exact way!
It’s never different, it’s always the same…
As promised to
@Traders4ACause
that I will give 10% of this weeks profits $4416 but will round up to $5000 for this great event & and for a great cause🍻
Waiting to catch a flight at LaGuardia airport and two 30 something yahoo’s sitting next to me and saying “ I am down big time on my $AMC holdings… the other gentleman responds “ Buy more it’s just angry short sellers doing this”
Great strategy fellas
Part 3
Quitting is not an option
· Failure is our best teacher
· The “holy fuck moments” make you who you are
· Adapt and grow - I am now 90%-day trading
· Don’t get caught up in everyone else’s P&L
· It’s all about the daily grind
Has anyone noticed that the last 3 Presidential elections you hear “ This is the most important election of our lifetime “ from both Dems & Reps 😂😂all I can say to both parties is shut the F$&K UP
#dirtbags
Do you know how many people that are fully vaxxed and have the booster and have covid ?
I am one of them ....and i have covid.
Go preach your BS elsewear!
Thought I would take some time over the next few days to reflect on my personal trading journey over the last 28 years via Twitter with some bullet points & personal thoughts…the good, bad & the ugly.
Yes I am an old fuck(57)😂
If you were to tell me a year ago
@TomBrady
would come to Tampa & would lead
@Buccaneers
to the Super Bowl during a pandemic & have the greatest trading market ever.... well I think we all would of said the same thing.. Truly Blessed
@InvestorsLive
My life has certainly taken me places I could’ve never of imagined.But to be able to share my raw emotions & feelings ( crying too😭) in front of family & friends I do not regret at all.
My favorite part of my 60th birthday party was my impromptu speech 🎤
Financial media keeps pounding 2nd wave of Covid ... My advice turn the shit off and trade price action! Monster moves in so many leaders... just focus on extracting money & less about $SPY and what CNBC says! Jmo
Had a very disturbing conversation with a friend today that left me 🤦♀️ smh..
Him- “I am making so much$$
Trading nft’s that I am taking a large 6fig loan on my home so I have more buying power “
Me- Don’t be f-ing stupid ! U saw dotcom . Very sad
Congress is once again wasting tax payers money once again with the Robinhood, GameStop, Citadel hearings! If you are not paying commissions then that firm is selling their order flow for payment.
A 606 report will tell you everything! Nothing is free!
No scars, no story.” Part one
Imagine being told that you wouldn’t amount to anything because you have a learning disability…that was me and it is one of the biggest reasons for my success.
Big thanks to
@D22_123
who gave/made this for me
@Traders4ACause
this year.
Dawson I just wanted to say thank you so much. Really appreciate you & our conversations we have. I am proud of you! The best is yet to come for you🔥
Today was a pretty shitty day trading for me… Have had them before and will have them again. I can deal with it .. pretty unemotional for me . But one of the hardest things for me is when family & friends lose money.
Longevity is key👊HAGW
Was just ask by a gentleman sitting next to me on my flight “What is the key to trading “……
My answer was simple “adapt to the current environment , keep learning & never follow the masses”
Call with a friend..
I asked him how he was doing? My friends response was “ I am out of work but doing great”! I said you have a great attitude for someone that is not working. Friend said “I am trading at Robinhood & killing it 😂😂

@elkwood66
For those that have never witness the boom & bust cycle let me give you the Facts:
Bull markets ( stocks crypto real estate) everyone is a guru & think they’re untouchable. But when it’s over u see fraud, greed , failure.This will never change !
As I am reading the Wealth Managers/ Registered Investment advisory firm’s who took PPP loan money that I personally know ( total of 5) .... None of you needed the money! Makes me f-ing sick ! Dirtbags!
We must wear a mask when we are flying on a plane.But when they serve snacks, meals & beverages everyone can drop their mask at once😂
Am I the only one that thinks this makes zero sense??
Zero common sense at 36k ft🤷♂️
$WORX-just drove past their headquarters ( I am serious) my question is which one is their office? Home, RV or gmc van?? Hey if Amazon was started in a home or garage maybe this is the next great one:-)
@QTRResearch
Thank you so muchChris ! But it’s not a secret anymore 😂😂 ..I came out of the closet.... I am engaged to
@alibkaplan

Wanted to give a shout out to my son Jake
@valenti_jake
who has put together 6 consecutive green trading days 🔥
Special thanks for helping him along his young journey
@WangerTrade
@insuredwanger
👊
Show up & do the work!
Proud of you Jake❤️
Kills me that these idiots on CNBC keeps calling for S&P correction etc …. Who cares , there are sectors that have had a 40-50% correction already in the past 6 months . Thank God I have a brain. We are responsible for ourselves ✌️
@Canny4
Tom, as a trader for 25 plus years it’s definitely a Love / dislike relationship . I never considered myself a great trader but good enough to support my family for all of these years. Blood pressure meds are a must now. But I live for the battle every day.
Don’t get biased on a stock. One of my biggest winners of 2021 was AMC, both long and short. Our job is to extract money from stocks.
Cheers to 2022 and starting a new year of trading where we all start at ZERO. Thanks for reading.
She said her Sunday was great & that she loves her job and loves meeting people.
I told her I wish most people had her work ethic.
She said people are just plain lazy and make excuses! Talk about inspiration. No excuses just work hard & make it happen 🙏
@InvestorsLive
I have definitely been blessed for many years when it comes to trading.... however the feeling I get when it comes to helping someone is better than my best trades of the year 🙏
Friend just asked me “ have you ever seen anything like this before with the mkt “?
Me: Yes I have in 2000
Friend: can you give me some examples?
Me: QCOM, AMZN INTC HD, my fav MSTR😂
Look at a monthly chart
Friend: oh shit! You really are old as f$&k

They are going to tax everything and everyone. I love the standard answer.... your taxes will only go up if you make over 400k ....WRONG

Cousin text to me” $MULN is going to squeeze “
He told me I better get on the $AMC bullet train before the next big squeeze 😂😂😂
Cannot make this shit up it 😂
Ok my serious response to him…. “ SHUT THE FUCK UP” and stop taking drugs too
For the youth of America( and older adults )who have very little common sense when it comes to finances….so simple tips.
Quit going to Starbucks ( it sucks) make your own ☕️
Quit using Uber eats, DoorDash etc. Learn to cook .
More simple advice 2 come.
Those who were lucky enough to have traded in the dot com era can tell you that there were 100-200 stocks that moved like $tsla.. gold, bitcoin, dot com ... all ends the same way!

@InvestorsLive
Thank you so much Nate🙏
Honored and still at a loss for words.
It took me back to my very first
@Traders4ACause
when I sat next to Derrick and remember our brief but impactful conversations🙏❤️
Yesterday was a very special & emotional day❤️
Does not matter if I at the gym, restaurant, bar , walking down a street or at an airport all I hear is AI, AI, AI AI ……..
If this was a drinking game I would be drunk in 10 minute 🍻
Give me a break!
$INO, $VXRT just had 2 friends who just started trading 2 months ago text me to say “ I am thinking about giving up my regular job & trade full time “😂😂🤣🤣
#pleasedontquityourdayjob
Just wanted to shout out a big thank you to
@zkschell
for all his efforts and hard work to make
@Traders4ACause
a huge success every year! You are the man!
I am all for helping small businesses and the people but to keep helping publicly traded companies...NO WAY! It’s f-ing crazy! If you think Covid-19 is bad wait till this debt bubble happens. Not if but when!
Most people have 0 common sense.... They will not wear a mask to cover their face in COVID hot spots but yet every single person protects their cell phone with a phone case 🤔
God bless America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is the great country in the world 🇺🇸
Much respect for those that fought for our freedom 🇺🇸God bless our veterans 🙏
If you don’t love this country then just get the FUCK out !
✌️ Peace
Personally it’s very rare for me to swing trade long …
However I do know the next Big leaders will come from ipo’s from the last year or two. Strongly suggest & start getting familiar & making a watchlist.
This will payoff💰💰
$SQQQ definitely has been my main focus everyday long or short .
All covered up on my last 1/3 pos short trade…personal go to ticker until it’s not.keeping it simple certainly help imo
Have you ever noticed most Analysts from the large Wall Street firms make these bullish calls on oil, crypto, tech or whatever ??
News flash they are clueless!
If I had to make financial decisions based on listening to these jackoffs on CNBC I would be one broke hombre 💯 Thank God I am a trader & a self thinker🙏
The market, looking at risk assets such as bitcoin seems to be thinking we are going back to the past 10y norm in terms of interest rates.
I do not see a world where we go back to 0% unless we do into a deep deep recession.
Someone in the medical field asked me why i trade? And what else do i personally get out of trading? 1st one is pretty obvious..💰💰💰.2nd one was even easier! The Friendships i have developed! Had a great call with
@jscherniack
2day. A+ Friend!
Part two
Expect the unexpected
· If someone tells you it can’t happen, don’t believe it. Anything is possible.
· Back in early 2018, XIV dropped 90% after hours following the selloff, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
The market is the greatest teacher in the world…
It is always right & never wrong.
Our job is to extract money regardless…
Lessons will be learned and only those who truly work at it will survive.
Opportunities will always be there but will you?
Little Sunday inspiration for all….
Was in the grocery store checkout line earlier today when I saw a woman who was bagging my groceries was in a wheelchair and had only one arm & the biggest smile on her face.
I asked her how her Sunday was going?

@Bthestory87
But the amazing relationships traders build only few truly understand. Next to my desk is a card Ricky Analog wrote ( I put this in a glass frame. I was blown away with his kind words. That is what kind of person he is❤️
Breakouts worked every time until they didn’t!
· Always need to be learning – always need to ask yourself, “what has changed in the trading environment?”
· Let your fucking ego go! If you always must be right, you are DONE!
Traders always ask what was it like trading during dotcom🤔
Well, NVDA, SMCI are prime examples of how price action
acted during that era…
Probably times 50 -100 other stocks.. my point is they can go higher .. no reason to guess . Be patient!
@danshep55
Amen…. Yesterday i saw a family of 7 on a corner who were just hungry!
The look in their eyes told me everything. Needless to say I pulled over to help them.
I can’t stand when I see traders post p&l’s
Post what they did to help someone.
#Blessed
Special thanks to
@RickyAnalog
@Bthestory87
& the one and only
@WangerTrade
for coming to Tampa ❤️
The special moment the 4 of us shared together last night was amazing and something I will never forget 🫡
I see quite a few worthless celebrities, dirt bag politicians & useless media say they are done with twitter since Elon is in charge….
Wonder how many will get rid of their Tesla’s as well ??
