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.
Credit rating agency Fitch downgraded the United States from an AAA to AA+ rating. The U.S. is no longer officially a risk-free borrower. Truth be told, our country earned that credit rating a while ago. There was a time in our nation’s history when large budget deficits would have been considered extreme and irresponsible. I’m…
The social media landscape is increasingly controlled by a small group of powerful corporations that have a vested interest in censoring dissenting voices. This censorship is not only harmful to free speech, but it also undermines our democracy. I touched on this topic just a few days ago. The fact of the matter is, just…
Time will tell, it always does! The Fed hiked interest rates by a quarter of a point Wednesday afternoon, bringing the benchmark borrowing rate to 5.25%-5.5%. That means interest rates are now at the highest level in 22 years, bringing us all the way back to 2001. There will be lots of commentary about all…
1. Market averages are overbought. Prices have moved up “potentially too far, too fast.” The SPY gained more than 4% in the two weeks before its most recent high. Gains of that size are unusual. They happen on average just a handful of times each year. And a pullback starts the following week more than…
September’s West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil futures are managing to hold their own, indicating a potential higher finish through the balance of the week. WTI crude oil prices are upbeat thanks to lower U.S. crude inventories and strong crude imports by China. However, the market sentiment remained somewhat restrained due to concerns about weaker demand…
Some have studied this, others have not. But if you’ve been around the technical analysis world – at some point you’ve heard of the Elliott Wave Theory. Let’s break it down! Markets very infrequently go straight up or straight down. More commonly they move in impulses and corrections. Understanding them is crucial to reading price…
The golden age of the internet that existed prior to 2015 is likely never coming back. There are several reasons for this: One, the surprise victory of Donald Trump in 2016 forced an immediate shift in what the powers of the media allowed We The People to see and not see. Free speech as such…
The U.S. dollar’s reserve currency status is one of America’s greatest assets. But President Bozo seems fixated on dethroning the dollar through both his domestic and foreign policy agendas. Americans need to wake up and pay close attention because we’ve seen this theater before, and it ends in tragedy. In the late third and early…
Practicing your golf swing and trading aren’t so different. While I’m fortunate enough to live on a golf course, I still spend plenty of time at the driving range to practice! Golf and trading require a shared set of attributes: dedication, consistency, skill, practice and most importantly a relentless desire to improve with each passing…
Hey, Anthony here: Every weekday, I post a daily trade idea for my Big Energy Profits family members. (I actually post it to the members area the evening prior — so my members have it ready at their fingertips before the market opens.) In this video, I’m walking you through how the trade idea for…
