Passion. Perseverance. And Why That’s Enough
Jack Carter | October 16, 2025

Jack Carter | October 13, 2025
Hey traders, If Friday rattled you and today felt like whiplash, you’re not alone. Here’s how I think about it: panic is a condition, not a signal. I don’t trade the headlines — I trade the setup that panic leaves behind. Friday gave us fear. Today gave us a bounce. My job is the same […]

Jack Carter | October 7, 2025
Hey traders, I put on a simple income trade today and I want to walk you through it — the “what,“ the “why,“ and the “what if.“ TSLL is a 2x leveraged Tesla ETF. That just means it tends to move about twice as much as TSLA. If Tesla drops 4%, TSLL will be roughly […]
