[Image] February 19th, 2023 | Issue 170   Hello Trader, This week, mixed economic signals have sent shivers down the spines of investors who now worry inflation might be more persistent than initially thought. As if that wasn't enough, Fed officials at the central bank have sounded hawkish, causing a stir among traders who are now factoring in more rate hikes. U.S. markets kicked off the week with a hint of optimism but have since lowered, finishing the week in the red.  As the back-and-forth continues and investors look to find solid footing in 2023, it is apparent that not all that we assume is likely to happen will happen. For instance, talks of a hard or soft landing dominated the early weeks of 2023, only to take a backseat to mounting inflation and interest rate hike fears. Furthermore, companies that were perceived to start the year strong showed weakness, while global markets have seen similar back-and-forth fluctuations. Investors are scrambling to evaluate their projections and open positions. Something I was able to effortlessly navigate this week without breaking a sweat.  This is exactly where YellowTunnel excels: combining A.I. trading software with psychological analysis.  The gamut of early 2023 economic reports and data is behind us and looking ahead at the rest of Q1 may be confusing. In moments like these, when economic analysts and technical indicators look to catch up with the fluctuating data, I am reminded of the importance of setting, maintaining, and reviewing pillars of successful trading. These are tools and ideas traders should uses to formulate a trading plan and financial strategies. The market is unpredictable, many things remain out of your control, and even your projections and predictions can turn faulty in the blink of an eye. Thus, I encourage and stress this in our daily live trading room, including psychological pillars and not just technical ones.  One of my key pillars of successful trading is understanding The Dichotomy of Control.  As a trader, I strongly believe that psychology plays a crucial role in the financial markets. Reading charts is important, but it is not the only factor that drives the market. One of the key concepts that I have come to appreciate is the dual dichotomy of process versus outcome, which is a core philosophy of ancient Stoicism.  At the end of the day, you can only control your own thoughts and actions and have little or no control over what others think or do. This principle not only helps me in my personal life with family, friends, and colleagues but also in my trading.  This week, we witnessed a perfect example of how market sentiment can be unpredictable. Better-than-expected retail numbers caused the market to pull back, while worse-than-expected inflation data led to a short-term rally. As traders, it's important to remember that we have no control over the news that affects the market, but what truly matters is how the majority of people react to it.  So, let's discuss how we can apply these principles to our day-to-day trading. As a trader, it is important to focus on the things we have control over and have a disciplined approach to risk management. Q: How much cash should I have in my account? A: The amount of cash in your account should depend on your market outlook. If you believe there will be a hard landing, it is recommended to have around 50% of your account in cash. If you believe there will be no landing or a soft landing, then 30% of cash may be sufficient.  Q: How much should I risk per trade? A: In our live trading room, we generally recommend risking less than 2.5% of your account value per trade. We also suggest breaking down positions into two trades, with each one risking no more than 1% of the account value. When trading options, we advise spreading positions across different strike prices and expiration months. For stocks, we advise spreading positions across two key support or resistance levels. The goal is to risk less than 10% of the overall account value and to have a maximum of four positions at any given time. By following a disciplined approach to risk management, one can better manage their emotions and improve their chances of success in the financial markets. Remember, it is important to focus on the things one can control and stay disciplined in their approach to trading.  In the end, mastering your own emotions and having a disciplined approach to trading can go a long way toward achieving success in the financial markets.

In recent years, AMD has gained significant attention in the stock market, with its share price soaring due to strong demand for its products, which are currently listed on the NASDAQ exchange. The company's products are widely used in personal computers, gaming consoles, and other devices, and it has secured partnerships with major players in the technology industry. Providing high-performance, low-cost alternatives to competitors such as Intel and Nvidia, AMD has carved out an impressive spot for itself. In particular, the company's Ryzen and Radeon lines of processors and graphics cards have been well-received by consumers and industry analysts alike. Sporting a model grade of "A," AMD is listed in our top 10% for accuracy within our data universe. Trading around $78, AMD is right in the middle of its 52-week range of $54-$125 and has sold off in recent days. This dip provides us with a great price to enter, and looking at the latest movements in the precious metals and semiconductor fields, I am keen on profiting from these levels.  Furthermore, AMD is showing a promising trend when plugged into our Seasonal Charts...

The week began on a positive note with the release of several key economic reports, but the positive sentiment faded as the week progressed.  One of the most highly-anticipated reports was the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for January, which showed a decrease in consumer price growth. However, the report also revealed that progress in curbing inflation is slower than expected, suggesting that the path ahead may be uncertain. This highlights the challenges facing the Federal Reserve in its efforts to control inflationary pressures, and it may need to continue implementing measures to contain rising prices.  The CPI report for January also indicated a smaller-than-anticipated decline in the annual rate of price growth, along with the most significant monthly increase in prices since June. This underscores the need for ongoing monitoring of inflationary forces in the current economic environment.  On a more positive note, the latest retail report released on Wednesday showed that retail sales in January exceeded expectations, indicating that consumer demand remains robust despite the challenging macroeconomic climate. Retail sales grew by 3% from the previous month, reaching a total of $697 billion, surpassing the anticipated 1.7% growth. Even when excluding the volatile categories of vehicles and gas, sales still showed a significant increase of 2.6%, surpassing the predicted rise of 0.45%. These positive retail sales figures suggest that consumer spending remains strong, despite the ongoing concerns about rising inflation.  The U.S. stock market took a hit on Thursday after cautionary statements from Federal Reserve officials, and the latest economic data on jobless claims and inflation only added to concerns. The mixed messages coming from the Treasury yields and producer-price inflation are also giving investors more to ponder. In addition to this, there was a 4.5% drop in housing starts in January, which signaled a potential slump in the housing industry. With all of these economic indicators in flux, investors and analysts alike are trying to make sense of the implications for the future of finance.  On Thursday, markets reacted to comments from St. Louis Fed President James Bullard and Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester, who indicated that the Federal Reserve mightmay have to continue raising interest rates to combat persistently high inflation. Bullard suggested that a 50 basis point hike at the March meeting is not out of the question, while Mester stressed the need to raise the federal funds rate if inflation remains high or demand and supply imbalances persist. With mixed economic data and uncertainty around Federal Reserve monetary policy, investors remain cautious about the trajectory of the economy in the coming months.  In other news, the latest labor data released on Thursday showed that the number of initial jobless claims filed by Americans last week was below economists' predictions at 194,000. This positive development in the labor market is something that the Federal Reserve has been closely monitoring to help combat rising inflation. The strong labor market data could assist the Fed in its decision-making process as it contemplates whether to continue raising interest rates.  China and precious metals started the year on a strong footing, but they have been selling off due to a stronger dollar. I would like to mention the weak performance of GLD and SLV in the recent pullback....
