Ricky with Techwood Solutions reports position on MSTZ doing well, trimmed part of it, announced to LPP team. Trades live every morning at market open. Focused on Bitcoin price action despite not trading crypto. As NASDAQ sold off, Bitcoin fell after huge overnight sell-off around 4:00-5:00. NASDAQ red in overnight and extended hours, tried to pump at open but hit previous Friday resistance then sold off.

When Bitcoin and MSTR drop, MSTZ goes up. Up over $7,000 today, trimmed majority of profit, sitting pretty. NASDAQ testing major support at 600. Markets more bullish than bearish, always find reason to recover, but facing uncertainty.

Dow Jones fell 600 points in 30 minutes as US equities react to new tariff threats from President Trump.

Any country that wants to play games with the ridiculous Supreme Court decision, especially those that have ripped off the USA for years and even decades, will be met with a much higher tariff and worse than that which they previously recently agreed to. Buyers, be aware. Thank you for your attention to this matter, President Donald Trump.

Politics influences markets. Friday markets rallied on Supreme Court decision that Trump's tariffs illegal, expecting no more tariffs, reducing uncertainty. Laughed at market open pump attempt post-Trump's announcements: 10% tariffs Friday, 15% Saturday, now threatening more countries.

Doesn't agree, calls it irrational and emotional, but markets dislike tariffs and uncertainty. Watch live trading session via second link in description for LPP team.

VIX index (volatility or fear index) rising with fear injection. Shorted more consistently as it rose and markets retraced, happy with $7,000 day. NASDAQ testing 600 support. Not super safe to short here, markets can go lower, but greater risk for beginners—stay cash instead. Better to stay safe: allow drop then buy good quality companies at good prices as markets recover.

For experienced active traders who manage risk, volatility is exciting. Bitcoin sells off before markets (not digital gold). Real gold cyclical, goes up when markets drop. US-Iran tension escalating; attack means more uncertainty, markets drop, gold rises. Gold at $5,200/ounce, tends to rise with uncertainty.

  • Stay cash or know inverse assets: SQQS (up when markets drop), SPXS (up when S&P 500 down), gold-based ETFs to hedge.
  • Build oversold watchlist for decent deals post-volatility, pick 3-5 stocks to invest or swing trade on recovery.

Current uncertainty: tariffs and Iran.

HIMS reports earnings today after close. Nvidia Wednesday after close—most valuable public company, usually beats earnings and guidance. Will it exceed expectations and recover markets, or good but not enough causing further drop?

Open Door set bull trap: pumped 6-7% in 2-3 minutes to $5.39 high, gave it all back, now down 4-5%. Down over 50% in past 5 months, worst performer—cheap can get cheaper, may drop below $1/share. Glorified house flipper valued as tech company using AI.

Excited to follow if new management turns it profitable or smoke and mirrors.

Trades live every morning, blunt, calls out hype and red flags, focuses on beginners managing risk, conservative approach. Build risk tolerance later. Offends bag holders of overvalued stocks down 30-50%—learn from their mistakes, avoid overvalued companies. Join LPP via second link in description (discount available) or watch free YouTube videos.
