PRIME PICK$
April 5, 2026 Volume 227 "Open The Fuckin' Strait Edition"
A Very Presidential Easter Message To All(ah)
I’m not going to even begin to pretend to know what stage of toddler tantrum dementia batshittery this post is, but that is what we got this morning for Easter. It is clear that we don’t have control in Iran like Trump tells everyone that we do. We had planes shot down this weekend. More planes and helicopters shot down rescuing the pilots that were shot down. And now he is suddenly back to his magical countdown clock to make a deal while calling the Iranians ‘crazy bastards’ out of the other side of his mouth.
And as you are all aware by now, this crazy out of control maniacal behavior only seems to grow with each passing day. And the market is reacting violently. And while those reactions have largely been down since the war started, we also saw on Thursday how he can drop the market overnight and then it can rip right back the other way when the bell rings. It’s exhausting. However, the daily volatility and uncertainty with current market has made me do a lot of thinking recently about how to provide more accurate and timely info in this market for my paid subscribers, and I’m putting the pieces together as we speak.
Yeah, I changed the publishing schedule last week. And now I’m changing it again, because last week made me realize I wasn’t thinking big enough.
The real problem isn’t which day PRIME PICK$ drops. It’s that this market moves faster than a twice-a-week format can keep up with. By morning, half of what I write Sunday night is already obsolete. Trump is out here throwing grenades at 3am and I’m publishing setups that are getting obliterated while we sleep. And you know what I realized…that’s not a newsletter, that’s a history lesson.
So here’s what I’m building:
Wake & Bake Notes (the daily market news I currently publish) and PRIME PICK$ are merging into one daily premarket publication.
Fresh charts & trade ideas every morning
SPY & QQQ charts/levels every morning
PLUS News, macro context, calendars & what to watch for all in one place
This week I’m testing the combined format inside Wake & Bake Notes, so that’s where you’ll start seeing it take shape. Watch the mornings. Monday through Friday. That’s the main show.
A new name is coming too.
If you’re a current paid subscriber, you don’t need to do anything. You’ll just be getting a LOT more, and have full access to everything as it evolves.
If you’ve been reading Wake & Bake for free, fair warning: as this merges into one premium publication, most of that content you LOVE is moving behind the paywall. If you’ve been on the fence, now’s the time to become a full subscriber.
Tonight’s edition is intentionally lean while I get this dialed in. Make sure to lock in each morning moving forward and join us in LIVE CHAT every day as well!
I wrote more extensively about the historical comparison of 1973 to the situation we are in now if you would like to expand your knowledge base and learn more about where this could be headed both now and in the future.
