[Energy and Capital logo] WATCH: Almost Dying on the Chesapeake Made Me a Better Trader [Sean McCloskey Photo] By [Sean McCloskey]( Written Oct 22, 2021 If you’ve followed my alerts over the course of my career, you know that in addition to a passion for picking stocks and options trades, I also have another passion: I love fishing. Well, that love almost got me killed last weekend while fishing in a tournament on the Chesapeake Bay. With swells reaching 10 feet at times, 20-knot winds, and supersized cargo ships pushing out massive wakes, it was all my co-angler and I could do to keep the boat from going under. Thank God his boat’s bilge pump was up to the task! And I got a great shot of my buddy getting smacked by a big wave at the bow! [Bay wave Image] But you know what? That willingness to go where few others will go and facing hardships head on that others would run away from gave us an incredible third-place finish against a world-class field of anglers (with much bigger boats) and put $1,000 in cold, hard cash in my buddy's pocket for longest snakehead! And oddly enough, that experience reminded me of one of the most important lessons an investor can ever learn. Have You Heard of “TriFuel-238”? A single ounce could power your home for a year. Under half an ounce could get you from LA to D.C. And now, according to figures from the U.S. Energy Information Administration... The breakthrough known as "TriFuel-238"... Could trigger a wealth event unseen since the dawn of the internet... As it takes the throne as the cheapest source of energy on the planet. This has nothing to do with renewables or fossil fuels — or virtually anything you’ve ever seen before. Yet this strange substance could now claim the lion’s share of a $1.9 trillion opportunity... And hand early investors a potential life-changing fortune. [Click here for the urgent details.]( When markets start rising and falling violently, like the peaks and troughs of those big waves I faced last week, the one thing that’s going to save your life (or your money) is staying calm and keeping your emotions in check. Panic, be it market-induced or caused by bad weather out on a boat, is your worst enemy. The past few weeks have been extremely volatile for equities. All three major indexes saw huge downturns and reversals. You needn’t look any further than this one-month chart to see the proof: [S&P, Dow, Nas 1 month] As you can see in the chart, throughout September and into the first week of October, there was a lot of panicked selling. But that only means folks missed out on a huge rebound the following week. The bottom line? When the market gets choppy, the last thing you want to do is panic and act irrationally. The #1 Gold Stock of the Decade This firm is potentially sitting on the richest undeveloped gold mine on Earth. It trades for around $4 a share right now. But soon it could be trading for $40 or more. [Click here]( for details. Now, I’m not suggesting we stop actively managing our investments, but obsessively refreshing the market action every 15 minutes is an extremely bad habit to get into. Some of the most successful traders on Earth suggest only checking your portfolio performance once a day, or even just weekly if you’re going long. The pitfalls of emotional investing are straightforward, and any veteran trader will tell you the same. When you don’t check your emotions and you let fear or irrational exuberance influence your trades, you’re liable to: - Buy stocks at the “top” or sell stocks at the “bottom.” - Underestimate your real risks. - Invest in the right sectors at the wrong times. The moral of the story is simple: When facing life-and-death emergencies like I did on the Chesapeake — or in your portfolio — keep calm, don't panic, and stick to your plan. In the long run, you will come out on top! Now for an Update on Our Two Open Options Trades Currently, we have two open trades — our DraftKings Inc. October 22, 2021, $57 calls and our Chevron Corp. November 12, 2021, $110 calls — that I want to give guidance on. If you’re in one or both of these trades or are just curious about how my options system works, I recorded [a short five-minute video]( for your enjoyment (and profits)! [EAC Vid Image]( More fresh trades, market updates, and guidance are coming soon. Have a great weekend. To your wealth, Sean McCloskey Editor, Energy and Capital P.S. Have you been paying attention to Bitcoin's incredible surge? Before you get too excited, I have to tell you — now is NOT the time to join the herd of BTC buyers. Why? After running from $450 to $66,000 over the past five years, it is unlikely to repeat that type of performance. Instead, the way you make money in cryptocurrencies right now is to look at other, smaller, more niche cryptos. Cryptos like Solana (SOL) have climbed in price from $29 to $157 since July! And a little-known token called Cardano (ADA) is up 2,090% year to date! These types of cryptocurrencies are known as altcoins, and they have plenty of upside. Most importantly, my colleague Christian DeHaemer has identified [six of these coins]( and featured them in his trading service Launchpad Trader.

A handful of companies, like Tesla, are already trying their hand at operating fully autonomous commercial vehicles. But driverless cars are nothing without this tiny, strange device... It’s called LIDAR, and it’s the brain of a self-driving car — creating a three-dimensional map to register its surroundings and suggest less-congested routes. Not only does it reduce the risk of traffic injuries and fatalities… But the small firm producing it has almost 200 projects in the pipeline with big automakers and major tech firms. In fact, Tesla is ALREADY testing its LIDAR technology on its cars. And it’s not the only one. Car manufacturers like Ford, BMW, and Hyundai are pouring billions of dollars into this new technology. That puts early investors in a once-in-a-lifetime profitable position. You could potentially see a windfall of 16,795% or more, turning every $3,000 into $506,850... Or even $10,000 into $1.6 million. But you need to act fast because gains of this magnitude won’t be on the table for long.
