Ok so I know it’s been fooorrreeeverrr since I last posted and I apologize for all those who follow this blog. I’ve been so busy with my new house being built that I haven’t really had much time to trade, let alone post. Excuses aside, I am sorry for not keeping up to date. I am set to close on the house tomorrow so I can’t promise every day updates until a couple more weeks but I will definitely try to post as much as I can and should be able to start doing videos again once I get settled in the new place. Thanks for your patience and your support during this crazy time for me! Happy trading everyone!
