I hope everyone is enjoying the last part of the year as things slow down as we get ready for what is likely a volatile 2026 into a mid-term election year.

Market flows are usually slow into the end of the year and for tax reasons making new trades ahead of the end of the fiscal year end is just silly, for most so we’ll pick back up in a week.

The LongVol Report will come out this Sunday and you can get a free copy of it here.

Options Flows with Trader X resumes this weekend as well.

I realize the stigma around education, before we start, because so much of it today has been bastardized by charlatans and other heathens. However, I did produce a lengthy lecture series toward the end of this year titled the Active Trader Lecture Series that focuses on systematic, active-trading in the 1-30 day hold windows using equity and equity option overlays.

To be clear, this is not what you see me discuss on the Market call webinars where I am sorting out turn-arounds, dislocations and value ideas: this is active trading based around price-action and fundamental frameworks.

Moving on….

If you missed it I wrote a few new educational primers for LongVol Report Members in December.

As a subscriber there will be at least 1-2 of these a month going forward and they are a great tool to educate you on important portfolio management and investing concepts.

Finally.

The short, 60-minute webinar on some of our 2026 market themes is below.

Best,

Dan
