TheoTrade’s Tale of the Tape: Oh Look, It’s Tech (Again)
We’re in the middle of the Great Tech Reset, and many market participants are still asleep at the wheel. To be completely upfront with you, I’m okay with it - and here’s why.

The Great Tech Reset Continues…
I’ve been talking a lot about the “Great Tech Reset” in recent weeks, and after what I’ve seen over the past few days, I’m even more optimistic about this outlook. If you didn’t catch my presentation on this back on May 22, you can watch it here. But since I’m seeing these themes accelerate even…
TheoTrade’s Tale of the Tape: Summer is Coming – Relax – Bulls Are
It was a weekend full of worrying headlines, from escalations on the geopolitical front to negative developments on trade negotiations.

My Drawdown Recovery Journey
No matter how good of a trader you are or become, drawdowns will always be an Achilles heel. After one of my best years trading in 2024, I came into 2025 flying high. To be clear, I don’t change how I trade whether I’m winning or whether I’m losing, but to say I got socked…

Bonds or Tariffs - What’s the Worry?
You’ve probably heard the saying, “A bull market climbs a wall of worry.” And after President Trump’s announcement today that 50% tariffs on the European Union could go into effect on June 1, there’s yet another new reason to be concerned. But is obsessing over every emerging headline really healthy? Successful trading requires a level-head…
TheoTrade’s Tale of the Tape: This Sector Says Where We Are
Stocks are off the recent highs to start the week, and as I surfed “FinTwit” over the weekend in between my charting sessions, I still saw a lot of negativity surrounding the state of markets. Are we overbought near-term? Sure. Does that mean that we’re automatically going lower? Absolutely not. I talk about time a…
You Can Listen to Tech, or Doom-and-Gloom - It’s Up to You
Stocks are less than 5% away from their all-time highs now, and the “Great Chase” is on. Institutions and large funds got caught up in the doom-and-gloom headlines, and have only now begun to realize what’s happening.

We’re heading into a new week with stocks ripping to the upside following positive developments on the trade front between the U.S. and China.
