Stock Trading - Entry 24
Previously, I wrote about how El Salvador is using part of the electricity generated at a geothermal power plant at a volcano to operate a government bitcoin mining operation with the end goal of building a new city. This article contains a stock actually listed on a Canadian stock exchange doing a little bit of the same - minus the whole bitcoin thing. Are you ready to harness a volcano to add power to your portfolio?

A Closer Look at the Diverging Signals from U.S. Employment Surveys
Some economy watchers have been surprised by the faster employment growth recorded by the U.S. Establishment Survey, ES (used to compute non-farm payrolls) versus the Household Survey, HS employment (used to calculate the national unemployment rate). The Bureau of Labor Statistics, which compiles this data, argues that the ES is more closely linked to economic growth because it includes 80% of workers who contribute to real GDP. In contrast, others believe the HS is better at capturing turning points in the economy because it measures the number of people employed rather than the number of jobs.

The Trader's Path
I started ‘trading’ in the late winter/early spring of 2021. At the time, I had a decent amount of extra income, and after coming across some YouTube videos on trading, I figured what I’m sure most people do, “this doesn’t look that hard.” I quickly made around 20K during the bull run from 29K to 60K trading on Bybit and thought I was a God. I was quickly humbled after getting liquidated on an isolated trade and saw my 20K net profit get cut in half. It was then that my real trading journey began. In March 2021, I joined Chart Champions (under a different name) and stayed in the group for about 1.5 years. To the credit of CC, I truly did learn a lot about trading (shout out to Igor and Trader R). I eventually left around the summer of 2022 as I felt I had outgrown the core principles they were teaching. From that summer to the beginning of 2023, I engaged in a cycle of up and down trading where I eventually lost the full 20K plus my initial investment. To compound this even further, I had two different spot accounts go way underwater, putting my total losses (about half unrealized/still holding) around $60K. Losing the entire 20K, along with my initial investment, and watching my spot accounts plummet was one of the most depressing periods of my life. The overwhelming sense of isolation was intensified by having no one to share this pain with. For those who truly understand the intricacies of technical analysis, it’s not something easily explained to the average person. I shut down my computer and didn’t look at a chart again until this past spring of 2024.
