PRIME PICK$
January 7, 2026 Volume 202 "Oil From A Whale Edition"
Blubber Time!
We are finally back to double duty at PRIME PICK$ with the holiday season over and a full week rolling in at high gear. Liquidity is coming back, participation is coming back, and the market is done pretending to be half asleep. This is when you have to be fully focused, no coasting when everyone is back to the markets after the holiday lull.
Meanwhile DON Juan DePedo is out here playing the game of RISK in real life. I seriously do not know where the fuck we are anymore, or why anyone thinks it is a good idea to invade another country to arrest their president for breaking US laws when we do not arrest the US president for breaking US laws. And let us just pretend we go along with the narrative that Maduro has had an indictment in the US since 2020 (which is factual), and that the US military along with law enforcement somehow has jurisdiction to enter another sovereign nation to bring the accused to court (which is all illegal). That alone should end the conversation…but our government officials are all a bunch of fakes and phonies who don’t do shit for any of us plebes, and do nothing to uphold anything related to the Constitution or laws of the United States of America. So he marches on
But after you illegally invade to serve out a warrant, you also do not then get to take 50 million barrels of oil, sell it to whoever you want, and tell everyone the money will be deposited to you later like this is a fucking escrow account. What the fuck is going on?? Oh right, the Epstein Files were due based on the law that he signed (NO AUTOPEN!). Funny timing.
Last summer when Trump was suddenly fixated on reopening Alcatraz after one night watching Escape From Alcatraz, he also found another movie he clearly adored, Wag The Dog. If you missed out on the hotbed of 1997 cinema, I’ll give you the Siskel & Ebert: it is about distracting the public from a presidential sex scandal by starting a fake war.
SOUNDS REALLY FAMILIAR!!!!!!!!
So as we head into the rest of the week, expect more noise about how Deep Dig Donny is going to keep stealing the resources of another country while half the dipshits applaud. None of that changes our job. We still have the rest of the week to deal with and the market does not care about excuses. The setups are laced and ready to pay by the end of the week. Now it is time to go play Landman in the market and drill the hell out of some gains.

My Charts
Over Green line = Entry for Calls
Under Red line = Entry for Puts
Dash/Dot Blue line = Price Targets
Orange Dash/Dot line = POC (Point Of Control)
Purple line = Dark Pool
Blue Boxes = Demand Zones
Red Boxes = Supply Zones
EMA: orange = 9 | blue = 20 | pink = 50
Price targets are not the same as option strikes.
Price targets are where I believe the chart can/will go.
The strikes I suggest are what I think provide the best risk/reward to make money.
Let’s BANK!
UBER
UBER 0.00%↑ daily bull flag could not hold the breakout today and closed just under the trendline an 50ema to end the day. So tomorrow we will watch for buying volume and a retry of the breakout for calls. A rejection of that trendline will have us in puts and we can head back towards the $83 level. Here’s the plan.
