Tic,

Just wanted to say thanks for being here for us through this hell of a year, And according to a lot of experienced traders one of the hardest years of trading. I have definitely grown tremendously as a trader this year thanks to you.

Regarding your post the other day about the book that had that part about Alexander, you could say that you are Alexander and I am just a soldier guided by you, and I look forward to following you into battle in 2023.

Happy new year

My only issue with the china reopening thesis is China appears to be in a very bad state that could spread all over the globe and create hysteria, and we know govts will not let that “crisis” go to waste. Idk if it’s overblown or not as it appears to only be omicron variants but we are not testing all Chinese arrivals until Jan 4. So whatever virus is over there can spread globally in the meantime

@Tic- Great callout as always on the range, hats-off!

Please recommend trading platform that with options/futures both. I am stuck with crazy Merrill that doesn't have future trading.

Thanks

I started writing a substack back in Aug and have been quite accurate calling the macro and forecasting bounced to revisiting lows. Check out my substack if you have the time Tic! Partially thanks to you is when I decided to also write on substack, as I’m an early founder subscriber. And just wanted to write a substack and aggregates all the most insightful Twitter posts then I make forecasts from those insights.

Are the levels correct? It looks like the same as yesterday. Maybe a typo?

we had a close below 3820 already on wednesday today, so that means we go to 3790 on thursday?

Are you still using the chat function? I haven't seen anything since Dec 20 so I'm not sure if it's on my end or if you just haven't had a need to use it because it's been so choppy

Thanks Tic. I’m actually quite surprised at how range bound we’ve been this week. I know the vol is low but many times there is a slow guide up on low vol low to subdued vix. I guess the tax prep selling is greater than I expected this year.

What are your thoughts about a 2 trillion dollar consumer gadget company in potentially incoming recession?

I presume your talking about the omnibus bill. I think it is foolish and i don't now how to change their thinking.
