Are You Serious About Learning to Trade? I Mean Really Serious? The Time is Now!

by AF Thornton 0 Comment
  • Today is the first day of the rest of your life; what kind of life will it be? As the famous pastor and author Joel Olsteen often says, will you be a victim or a victor?
  • Learning to trade gives you and your family freedom to live on your terms – anywhere you want (or might need) to live. Why might that be important?
  • We can no longer live in denial. You see what is happening all around us. I am sure when I first mentioned things like the “World Economic Forum,” “Great Reset,” or “Fourth Turning,” it sounded a little out there. But now you realize I was right. Everything is at stake – our assets, values, way of life, and even freedom.
  • If you don’t see it yet – you can trust me that the WEF is bound and determined to drag us into war with Russia. Both Russia and China oppose the WEF’s Great Reset and its nonsense. So Russia and China’s leadership have to be eliminated – according to Davos anyway. 
  • The WEFs process to undermine Russia and accomplish regime change, led by George Soros, was well underway in Ukraine until Putin finally put his foot down. 
  • The Davos crowd and other U.S. Neocons have no problem sending our children and grandchildren into a war with these superpowers to achieve their ends. This is the first time in my life when I have heard discussions like – “well, you know a nuclear war is survivable.” Are you kidding me? Is that why Barrack Obama is building a bunker on his Martha’s Vineyard Estate?
  • Recently, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau seized the bank accounts of the truckers opposing the mandatory vaccines in Canada. Not long after, he has now proposed to disarm all Canadians. Whose side do you think he is on?
  • If you don’t think that could happen here, think again. Have you heard about the Department of Homeland Security’s new “Disinformation Governance Board?” Even though they let the “Mary Poppins” like character Nina Jankowicz go after all of her partisan videos surfaced, the Board is alive and well, like something straight out of George Orwell’s 1984. 
  • The Board is already proposing Canada-inspired rules allowing banks, with or without the Department’s direction, to “freeze” bank accounts of so-called “purveyors of misinformation.” 
  • We all know what this means. Suppose you oppose the current regime, good luck with your assets. Is this how you want to live? Is this how you want your children and grandchildren to live?
  • And how about those vaccines?
  • Joe Biden isn’t finished. Do you know why he is not worried about the upcoming midterms? Read Molly Hemingway’s new article “Yes, Joe Biden is Hiding His Plan to Rig The 2022 Midterm Elections” in the Federalist. Molly is mainstream – she is no nut case. Is this the kind of country where we want all of our assets?
  • Say the wrong thing, speak out against the regime, and your bank accounts are frozen – not by the government but by a private bank. What do you do?
  • And wait until the government converts us to digital currencies. You and your family can be starving at the flip of a switch.
  • In less than 18 months under the Biden Administration, over 1.5 billion people have aligned against the U.S. and its Allies under the BRICS alignment (Brazil, Russia, India, China (PRC), and South Africa).
  • The BRICS’ sole aim is to challenge the current global order and U.S. hegemony. Understandably so!
  • Let’s face it; the West is a mess under Davos-influenced rule.
  • Down to the U.S. Military, we are allowing ourselves to drink the woke Kool-Aide – obsessed with nonsense like pronouns, gender, controlling the weather, adopting dark-age energy systems, and all manner of ridiculous political correctness. 
  • And It is almost unbelievable that our leaders have driven arch enemies Russia and China into a  new romance based on despising the West. That is quite an accomplishment. 
  • Our only prayer in the circumstances was to keep India on our side. Now we have lost them and Brazil to the new alignment.
  • In the meantime, Russia and China are staking their influence in our backyard (e.g., Mexico, Latin, and South America).
  • Friday, the BRICS countries announced a new global reserve currency backed by a basket of commodities, including gold, to compete with the U.S. Dollar.
  • It will take a long time to displace the U.S. Dollar, which is not inevitable, but the threat is real.
  • What would you rather own? A piece of paper and a promise from a corrupt and ideologically confused government with nearly $31 trillion in debt? How about Bitcoin (now down 60%) and backed by nothing? Doesn’t a BRICS collateralized currency make sense?
  • I could go on and on and have gone on long enough. The point is that you and your family need the freedom to choose where you will want to live out this period. 
  • Do you want to be stuck in a job? Maybe you shouldn’t have all your assets in one place. There are a lot of considerations.
  • In short, you don’t want to be a victim or be enslaved to a New World Order. So what is the answer?

Give Me The Time - And I Will Teach You How to Trade Anything and Enjoy All of the Benefits That Come with This Knowlege - Starting with the S&P 500 Index

We Will Build a Small and Exclusive Community of Like-Minded Traders and We Will Weather the Coming Storm Together
  • Admittedly, I am a bit of a geek. I started trading in my late teens. I have been trading and investing now as a professional for 35 years. 
  • I have read every book, made every mistake, washed-out accounts, and experienced all the ups and downs of life while I worked out nearly every bug until I perfected a swing-trading algorithm that consistently worked. I have made over $25 million sourced from that algorithm since 1987.
  • Branded as the Navigator Algorithm™,  you have seen that system return triple-digit annual percentage gains since we started this group in the fall of 2019. 
  • Since then, we have avoided the downdrafts of the March 2020 Covid Crash and recent Bear Market and have also taken advantage of them. 
  • The Navigator Swing Strategy signals have already achieved a 90%+ gain year-to-date. How many hedge funds, mutual funds, or money managers can make that claim, especially with this bear market?
  • But swing trading and the requirement to hold overnight positions are trickier in any bear market, including this one.
  • Over the past four years, my partner and I have been working on expanding the swing-trading system into the daytime frame and perfecting it. While the principles are the same as swing trading, the daytime frame is a lot noisier. 
  • It is like the difference between the scratchy AM band (Daytime Frame Trading) and quiet FM radio (swing-trading).
  • The March 2020 Covid Crash was somewhat easier to navigate than the current, slow-motion bear market. In the Covid crash, we had to get out in time and get back in. For the most part, we could then swing trade and hold for days, weeks, or even months at a time.
  • In the current bear market and volatility, it is not easy to sit tight, especially if you prefer to be long and not short the market. And that is where day trading makes sense – meaning that you are back in cash by the end of the day.
  • And taking it to the next level, it has often been the case that participating solely in the overnight futures session has delivered better returns than the regular U.S. session. We have a strategy for that too.
  • So today, without much fanfare, we start the soft opening of our new, comprehensive trading and mentoring services.
  • Allow me to take a moment and explain the new services. 
  • For $99 monthly, you can still receive all the basic communications and swing-trading signals. Nothing will change. 
  • However, for the $297 monthly Active Trader Subscribers, the Trading Room and many other benefits are now open. Swing Traders should read on as the free and public portion of the services are also available now.

The Week Ahead - Live on YouTube and Rumble

"The greatest victory is that which requires no battle." - Sun Tzu, The Art of War
  • You are invited to join me live every Sunday Night from 6:00 to 6:15 pm EST for my new program “S&P 500 Futures – a Quantitative Look at the Week Ahead.” This show will be recorded, available on the channels, and will be open to everyone.
  • I designed this live, 15-minute program to help traders build their trading sandbox and plan for the coming week.
  • At the conclusion of the program, BluPrint’s Navigator Active Subscribers™ will head over to our new “Members-Only” Trading Room for about 45-minutes to discuss the proprietary Navigator Algorithm™ trading edges for the week ahead. 
  • A comprehensive Q&A session will follow.

Morning Notes - Live on YouTube and Rumble

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, your victory will not stand in doubt." - Sun Tzu, The Art of War
  • Next, I invite you to join me on YouTube every morning from 8:00 to 8:15 am EST for my new program, “S&P 500 Futures – Trading The Day Ahead.” This show will also be recorded, available on the channels, and open to everyone.
  • The 15-minute live program will help traders build their trading sandbox for the day session ahead.
  • On Tuesdays and Thursdays, subscribers will then head over to BluPrint’s new “Members-Only” Trading Room to observe and interact with me while I trade the S&P 500 Futures live.
  • I will be calling out my trades and why I am doing them as we move through the morning session, generally concluding as Chicago and New York head into lunchtime.
  • The subscription allows any serious student to apprentice under me as a veteran trader and investor.

Afternoon Notes - Live on YouTube and Rumble

“Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win” - Sun Tzu, The Art of War
  • Finally, I invite you to join me on YouTube and Rumble every afternoon from 4:15 to 4:30 pm EST for my new program, “S&P 500 Futures – Today’s Post Mortum.” This show will also be recorded, available on the channels, and open to everyone.
  • The 15-minute live program will help traders reflect on the day’s action while still fresh in their minds.
  • On Tuesdays and Thursdays, subscribers will head over to BluPrint’s new “Members-Only” Trading Room for a 45-minute Q&A session to drill down into the granularity of that day’s session and what we can model from it to improve for the future.
  • Despite all that is happening around us, you have a chance to take control of your life. I can teach any serious student to trade with our tools. And though I choose to trade the S&P 500 Index Futures exclusively, I teach principles applicable to any financial instrument.
  • This is not an overnight process, and it is certainly not for lazy and undisciplined traders. Most of the time, we trade against ourselves and our personalities. Five traders with the same information and tools can end up in five different places because of their individual personalities and idiocyncracies.
  • Join me in creating this amazing community where you will learn how to trade. We will keep each other informed and prepared as we traverse the rough road ahead and take advantage of the opportunities presented.
  • As we build the community, there will be many other benefits, including resource libraries, software, indicators, trading systems, and advcie on selecting and building trading computers. We will have lots of single-subject educational webinars designed to help you hone your skills.
  • Look, everything in life cycles. As sure as we are in a Fourth Turning, a wonderful First Turning lies ahead of us. But it is not likely to arrive until the end of the decade. So let’s look forward to it and pray that our country emerges stronger, better, and with our core values intact.

You will receive an invitation later today, about a half-hour before we go live on YouTube. As this is our first day, and we may have a few bugs, be patient and don’t be surprised if the invite comes a little late. That is why it is a “soft” opening. We will hold the “grand” start in a few weeks.
