Fair nuff, TBH have been mulling over Tesla and can’t justify a $2500/share entry, and that’s at $500/share considering they are a 5/1 split. Might stay away. CGC - dude Martha fucking Stewart come on. Actually I think they were quite brilliant in the whole give weed to your pets marketing strategy. Honestly don’t know jack about them beyond that so maybe you’re right there too.
Nvidia is the card to own in all things gaming, and especially in the world of crypto mining, I think they will continue to have ownership of those titles for a long time to come. I really don’t know much about the whole Arm acquisition, or other growth prospects but they seem to always be on one - guess that checks my boxes doe being a good stash candidate.

Quote:
ten year treasury yield index just had a strong break out [...] what impact will this have on the market?
This is one of the longest running inverse correlations in risk assets. When treasury yields (considered "safe") begin to rise, it necessarily draws some capital away from higher risk assets. When yields are persistently low, with the expectation of staying that way, it drives money seeking a return, further out on the "risk curve" in order to achieve a more reasonable yield. Further, a rising treasury yield will typically result in the Fed signaling less accommodation going forward, which is always a headwind for equities.
Unfortunately, the more that leading crypto assets like bitcoin are invested in by traditional money managers, and/or through more traditional market instruments such as futures contracts, ETFs, publicly traded trusts, etc; this will have some associated consequence of increasing the correlation of the crypto market to more traditional financial markets.
See y'all at the end of the week!

One last note before I go, courtesy of @scottrades on the StockMarketMentor forums:
Quote:
Good morning Team! Seeing a lot of RED on the screen this morning as we’re seeing some bearish follow through. I mentioned in my video last night ANY TIME the major indexes are below their key (Swing) moving averages, I tend to get more protective. It doesn’t mean I need to be out completely, but typically if I’m in a trade I’m smaller in size and tighter on stops with new positions. On portfolio positions I’m focused on the Daily and Weekly Trend and looking to hedge with an inverse ETF like the $SPXS or $SQQQ depending on my overall exposure. I’m also trying to keep an open mind to better than expected outcomes. I’m looking for opportunities in leading stocks and upside reversals from Key Support Levels like the 50 Day Moving Average.
#Bitcoin is pulling back hard again the key with this is to stick to your plan. If your plan is to trade it, trade it. If your plan is to HODL it, focus on the TREND and look for opportunities that fit your style. I bought a little this morning as it was just under the 21 EMA because that’s part of my long term plan. I’m long from below small adding on dips to the major moving averages. My timeframe on this trade is long and I know that means I’ll be sitting through many pullbacks like the one we have playing out now. There are some days when I wish I was trading it more actively but I developed my plan months ago and now I’m executing it. What I am seeing in Bitcoin is a lot of active Shorting not so much active selling. I follow a Twitter account that tells you what the Whales are doing and at one point I was seeing Short Prints upwards of 10 Million Dollars. I’ve attached one of these Tweets. That gives me the feeling that we’re seeing price pushed back down to support and in the coming days (or weeks) we’ll hear about all the companies that bought that dip. I’m 1000% speculating right now, but the last time we saw (The GOAT) Michael Saylor say he was planning on buying another Billion Dollars worth, we saw the same kind of pullbacks and out the otherside was his announcement that he had completed his purchase. Again, I’m speculating, but looking at what has happened in the past. We’ll see how this plays out.
I also want to touch on the importance of Diversity. Not in the environment, though I’m sure that's important. I’m talking about diversity in terms of Thought. You see, one of the major features of StockMarketMentor is our active trading forum. Those who are here every day see a bunch of different traders doing a bunch of different things. Everyone has their own style and chances are you’ve found yourself following another member here or there, maybe even becoming friends. I think one of the strengths and best features of the forum is it’s diverse thoughts about trading because by hearing and seeing the different ways people are trading the same stocks it causes YOU to Challenge Your Own Assumptions. One of the worst things a trader can get is complacent in their own mindset because that’s when you are the most vulnerable and chances are you can get caught off guard. Confirmation Bias will cause you to ride a loser way longer than you should. It will lead to regret, wishing and hoping and could blow up your account. By seeing what traders are doing, even if they don’t trade exactly like you do, it’ll give you a chance to review your positions and make sure you are solid in your thesis. I think of the GameStop trade and see all those people who were just following the crowd, didn’t care what the price was, took out a loan, bought at 300 bucks and now don’t know what to do. You want to be in a position where you’re following the crowd (volume) into a trade but have the ability to think for yourself immediately after the trade is put on. After all it’s YOUR money.
Surrounding yourself with different styles and mindsets will help you figure out what you think and how you trade. At StockMarketMentor.com we are trying to develop you as a trader, not develop you to follow a trader. Hope that helps!
Let’s be protective and open minded. Have a great day!

Great read
Took a position in AMD and LEU this morning
Rocky start this morning, market seems to be bouncing back strong and i wouldnt be surprised to see the rest of the day go well 
Also, i think TSLA is about to recover here. If i had money for it this would be my buy opportunity.
Might have more time if she consolidates and builds support, i dont see this one going much lower

Been watching SPY now that ive discovered it is a good representation of the overall market and sentiment
Starting to think i picked a tough time to learn and get involved in trading and investing 
Looks to be teetering on the brink of correction.
Guess if i can learn and manage to chart through this choppy weather ill be decently prepared moving into the future.
I think right now we are seeing a lot of money moving to dif locations and it might take a bit of time to see just exactly where the market goes and who will survive...

Well see, there is still stimulus on the way and a Fed that is more than happy to invigorate the markets at will. I dont know shit, but am not anticipating a major correction.

See y'all at the end of the week! 
The Fed has clearly signaled that capping long term bond yields if necessary will be one of their tools in the future. Today, the Fed stated it's not concerned with the current movement in the 10 and 30 year bond yields.
If I were to guess, if those yields are still higher by late April or May, the Fed will signal that yield control will be implemented. Once that policy happens, all asset classes (especially PM's and Crypto) will trade higher.

The ETF fund SLV just came out with a change in their prospectus which I think basically said they do not actually own the physical slver their fund represents- JP morgan does.
With the shortage in production versus consumption and demand- the only reason silver is not $50-$100 right now is because billions of dollars are out there at risk through future contracts.
Basically the silver market is being manipulated HARD right now - and even though $28 is already a seemingly high price- the principles of supply and demand put it at over $50 easily- I'm not sure when that's gonna happen- but when it breaks loose- it's gonna go very high ..
Silver is priced at $27-$28- but go try to buy an ounce right now- you'll be paying at least $35
This manipulation is so obvious and corrupt it's amazing it's gone on for so long.
Right now these billionaires are trying to cover their asses with the price manipulation of the paper market before the reality of the situation sinks in for the rest of the world.

I just picked up some calls on X
Still betting that the commodity super cycle is about to pump steel stocks
Right now I got calls on ZEUS MT X and VALE
Still holding GME and AMC stock
I think AMC is easily a $30 stock in the near future
Would love to hear some penny stock suggestions
I was considering picking up GSM but wanted to hear some community sentiment first

Just based on the chart, GSM seems to be rallying
Broke through old resistance keeping it in a downtrend and started an uptrend
Not sure if there will be any overhead resistance as it works to break its weekly and monthly moving averages, but i also just read a brief positive piece of news sentiment on MS and GSM being the 2 main producers of silicon metal production and something about limiting trade from other countries or something idk
Basically sounded good for bringing more business to these companies.
Maybe thats part of the reason for the current rally.
For steel i like RS a lot
If you look at the charts and specifically the weekly and monthly, RS is strong and has been on fire
Not sure when profit and pullback would come
X may do well too but the chart shows it has fallen from grace a bit so to speak and is working upward against the current, as Geo has pointed out to me from other stock picks (the steel boom may sort of eliminate that aspect of the equation)
Some other strong players in metal and minerals etc i am watching that shoe strong charts on strong runs are
SBSW (gold) not sure i want gold over btc SCCO (copper) TRQ (copper/gold etc)
Also looking very strong,
RIO BHP
And my favorite stock, a strong play on rare eaerth, MP
I highly encourage anyone looking for a strong long term investment to research MP
The importance of rare earth for tech, EV, and the trade war with China is makong rare earth a national security measure, or however that should be worded
Vale looks pretty good as well, ive been on the fence with vale simply because i was eyeing other players, but they may fill an important role in futuere demands of resources

Maybe Geo can help, im still working to try and understand how the weekly and monthly extension plays out
On the daily level it seems we have pull backs to old ema's to keep from running too high too fast.
And weekly and monthly trends seem to follow at times.
Because a lot of these tickers are running very strong and fast.
Wondering how that plays into long term holds. If you want to sell the top and buy the bottom as she falls or what

They have a deal with TSLA they announced a while back too.

LEU was a bad trade. Got closed out.
Realize ive been entering trades too soon thinking i could predict a break in resistance instead of waiting to see if it breaks.
Worked for ET but from now on ill be waiting for stronger indication than some of the trades ive been taking.
Ill have to look into option trading, been too lazy to learn so far.
* was closed out of PLL for tiny profit, will re evaluate for better entry tomorrow

I recommend learning options if for no other reason than to understand them. I think option trading opens a few new doors of possibility. I learned through some videos (there was a tasty trade series where a guy taught his daughter on youtube, but I can't find it anymore), reading, and mainly through trial and error.
Caution be known - options are a great way to lose money fast if you dont know what youre doing.
