Why did the toothbrush cross the road?
For a change of “paste”.
This joke from Alexa gave me a little chuckle — and it actually pertains to my current life situation pretty directly, given how much I’ve been to the dentist lately!
I injured my jaw muscle in late January. I’m recovering and I do have a treatment plan in place, but doctor’s orders are still to rest that muscle as much as possible — which means minimizing, chewing, talking (includes smiling, laughing).
That doesn’t exactly suit my personality, but I’m making it work! And I’m going to adapt my presenting and coaching cadence with you — and more importantly, there are silver linings.
Updating the Trading Tribe Calendar
Starting next week, I’ll be picking back up the pace of Zoom sessions — but limiting myself to one per day max.
We will continue:
- Ticker Requests Live on Tuesdays (this show has been fantastic and I love the value it’s bringing to every one of you).
- There will be a one time Forecasting Trading Lab on Wednesday for Lost Forecasting Trading System members who qualified for this Fast Action Bonus!
- First 40 Trading Club Office Hours – evolved: I’ll be adding to the format of how I help get members unstuck as they build, test, and adapt their trading plans.
Heading into March:
- Monthly Group Coaching will continue the first Wednesday of each month, so March 4th at 4:30 PM Eastern.
- First 40 Trading Club calls will now move to Wednesdays at 4:30pm Eastern, every other week. So in March that would be March 11th and March 25th.
This spreads sessions out in a way that supports my recovery while keeping coaching consistent — and actually moves us into what has become the more popular post-market close time slot!
Developing More Tools & utilizing Ai
Now, without getting too far into the weeds — part of my treatment plan involves finally addressing some long-standing dental issues.
At 47 years old… I’m getting braces. 🙂
Apparently life decided now was the time.
And while this is inconvenient, I’m also thankful it’s not something more serious.
But here’s the part that actually excites me.
This season is accelerating something I’ve already been building toward:
Less dependence on me talking you through your trading. More focus on you executing.
That means developing, testing, and offering more sophisticated tools, indicators, scanners. All which effectively have “my brain” built into what you’re using.
That doesn’t happen overnight — we’re just getting started — but my current medical situation makes it non-optional. And that’s not a bad thing!
Also, with Ai coming up all around is, we’ll also be integrating some new approaches into education delivery. You may start seeing Ai-supported voice and video content that allows us to increase output without depending entirely on my live speaking time.

Bringing You Over My Shoulder Each Morning
In all of this change, the beauty of my own personal trading and analysis is that it doesn’t depend on moving my jaw 🙂 So as I create time to heal and treat, it naturally provides more time to go deeper on my own trading.
And as early as next week you will hear about how exactly you can get in over my shoulder, to know my personal take on the markets every time I sit to trade, and learn from it yourself. Keep a close eye on your email for this one!!
Adaptation is Here!
There may be some unknown twists and turns ahead as I move through treatment, but I’m adapting — and I appreciate you adapting with me.
If you ever have questions, just reply to any email we send you and my team will be happy to assist.
I’m genuinely excited for what this phase will create — even stronger systems and simpler ways to navigate these wild financial markets!
Ain’t nothin’ gonna break my stride
No braces gonna slow me down, oh no
I got to keep on movin’…
😉
