Anthony Speciale Jr. Born and raised into a blue collar family in the suburbs of Northern New Jersey, I have in recent years put down the wrenches I’ve been turning for the better part of my entire life and have become a professional energy trader. My mother was a nurse practitioner and my father was an auto mechanic. I had literally watched both of my parents work endless hours with their hands throughout their entire lives and after loosing my mother at a young age to cancer, I had decided I wanted a different future than the path I was currently on. At a young age I was a struggling student who didn’t excel very well academically and college wasn’t really in the cards for me, but I was always a disciplined worker. When I had put my mind to something, there was nothing that was going to stop me from reaching and exceeding my goals I had set for myself. So, as life had evolved, so did my desire for freedom. It was never much about the money for me, but it was about the success and the freedom that accompanied that success. Over a decade ago, I decided to specialize in just one sector of the market. I knew that I only needed to be proficient at just one area of the market to achieve the goal I had set forth. Trade passively while producing massively. Well, that’s exactly what I did. After several years of failed attempts, endless education, trial and error - I had finally yielded myself the success and freedom I was desiring. After making myself over $1,000,000.00 trading this very method, it was time to share my success with those who also desire the freedom I did. After a lot of work, time, effort and sacrifice - Big Energy Profits went from merely a concept into a very real reality.
Those of you who have heard or read my story about my journey to becoming a market technician and trader, you know it all started on Main Street. I own and continue to operate a small “mom and pop” auto repair shop, literally on Main Street in my little hometown. Yeah, I get to see…
Let me start off by saying I’m NOT an international geopolitical expert. I’m just a guy with a glimmer of common sense… nothing more, nothing less! We’ve already committed and sent BILLIONS of our tax dollars to Ukraine. My heart bleeds for the Ukrainian people! But, in my opinion, this is questionable based upon the…
For those of you who missed yesterday’s article, we discussed how price progression occurs. The long and short of it is… The stock market operates like this: Volume precedes / drives the price action. Price action is then responsive to supply and demand. For all the reasons we covered yesterday, we now know the vital…
Before we dive into today’s topic, a few headlines that relate to yesterday’s article: “Google employees scramble for answers after layoffs hit long-time workers” and “Spotify cuts 6% of its workforce.” I’m NOT a doom and gloom kinda guy, but I cannot encourage people enough to do more for themselves — because you never know…
Good Morning fellow traders and investors, Happy Monday! It feels more like a “lay off” season than it does an “earnings” season… Markets posted broadly green indices on Friday, which I’m not complaining about. We’ll take them every chance we get! The Nasdaq notched out 3 straight weeks of gains. With that said, Google has…
How would you feel if you came to your desk or better yet opened up your work terminal from your home office to find out you’ve been whacked. That’s right… your job, your bennies, your retirement contributions… they’re all gone in less time then you can grasp it’s even possible. Just yesterday you were planning…

What’s your stock picking process look like? Today I’m going to share a glimmer into my stock picking “process of elimination” with you by breaking down what I factor into consideration: FACTOR #1: Momentum The momentum factor alone can be a total hit or miss. Some years, it was the gleaming factor: 2015, 2017 and…
I love investing in smaller companies, after all – I come from the mom and pop Main Street, small business business world. I’m just as happy investing in a pizzeria on the corner of a strip mall as I am a small cap, Russell 2000 stock! Smaller stocks tend to outperform large stocks over time. …
