The holidays might be over now but volatility isn’t going anywhere just yet…   

It’s been a seesaw battle as markets spiked shortly after the open Tuesday, only to see a sharp sell-off hit the Nasdaq and S&P 500, plunging equities into the red.

The rocky start to the holiday-shortened week played right into the hands of our Wiretap Trade Alerts strategy, netting another set of winning trades in the process, including a 78.4%** gain on Pinduoduo Inc. (Nasdaq: PDD) — you love to see it!

The hat trick stretched our win rate to 73.6% with an 11.5% weighted average return — including all winners and losers — since the launch of the strategy on Sept. 24, 2021! I don’t know how long this winning streak will last, but I’m enjoying the ride! To find out how to get in on my next round of trades, click here.

With bearish sentiment creeping back into the markets, we saw some massive repeat downside bets roll across the wire Tuesday…
