The “Halving” of Bitcoin Production

Hey traders, I’m having my fellow trader and good friend, Chris Brecher, write this week’s Five Star Trader newsletter since I am out of the office today! Chris is the Sr. Managing Director of Stocks here at Simpler Trading and specializes in trading options, futures, and stocks based on technical chart patterns and expert market feel:

Take care,

Chris Brecher
