Trade the Scoop
Hi Shoppers, If you’ve been trading lately, you know … it ain’t easy out there. There is so much going on worldwide it is pretty much impossible for one person to keep up alone. Even in quiet times, you do not want to be a lone trader. You need trading ideas and people to bounce…

Golden Hour
Hi Shoppers, It is one of those rare warm winter days in Chicago. As of this writing, it’s 64 degrees with a high of 66! And it’s super sunny. Gorgeous! In fact actually warm enough to sit outside. Chicagoans truly appreciate those first few warm days. It just…
