Welcome Attackers,
Q: What is one great thing you would dare to dream if you knew you could not fail?
Temptations
In every experience we encounter, we face a question: Will I act independently of God? In Luke chapter 4, Satan spoke three temptations to Jesus to would have led Him to act independently of His father:
4:3-4 “The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.” But Jesus answered him, “It is written: Man must not live on bread alone.”
4:6-8 “The devil offered to give Jesus authority over everything if Jesus would agree to worship him. And Jesus replied: “It is written: Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.”
4:9-12 “The devil had Jesus stand on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down here so that God’s angels may protect and support you. Lastly Jesus responded: “It is said: Do not test the Lord your God.”
There’s a gray area between trading and Christianity because of the involvement of money and probability gambling. There may be times where folks experience tremendous success and people think that they are more “highly favored”, and that is not true. These same folks who are making a lot of money and “praising God” from the rooftops may appear righteous, but I’m here to tell you that God is simply not just about money. Sure, we can all agree that God has an unlimited supply of money, but Temptation 1 tells us that humans must not live on money, or food, or anything in this world alone. This does not mean that we can’t enjoy these things or that God doesn’t want us to have them, but more importantly, we are to be rooted in the eternal source, which is to abide in God. Temptation 2 is the case of following too many masters, and Twitter is a prime example of this. Abraham Lincoln once said: “The worst thing about Twitter is verifying which furus are true.” Joking aside, God is without-a-doubt the only Master worthy of worship. But honestly, how many of us “worship God” on a Sunday only to find ourselves self-seeking or worshipping each other Monday through Friday? Temptation 3, early on in my career, I would question why God isn’t blessing my work. I would do my analysis, but they would seem to fail, or even worse, having a great analysis but unable to execute properly. That’s because I am asking God to bless my analysis rather than the work that He has for me.
Below- we will be sharing our newly-found evidence on where the S&P500 may be headed next.
Watch the $VIX, which closed at $18.7. Our highest level of interest is $17.65. The action has been pretty muted - this ticker has maybe 1-2 diminishing spikes at best and we expect it to be capped under $25 for the month of April. The statistics for April are incredibly bullish. We will look for clues along the way to confirm this data.
This tech short-squeeze has been within scope of our expectation. $AAPL- closed above $164.8 and $NVDA- closed above $275.8. Either $VIX $17.65 or $DXY $99.25 coupled with $ES- $4178.5 rejection could be goodnight Irene. We suspect that our mate may be ‘P’atiently waiting at $4178.5 to run it back.
Every week presents new challenges and we continue to put our trust in the One to help lead us. ~Namaste
