| TOPIC: the small-cap bull is starting
Chupacabras!
It's time to put a plan together for small-cap swing trading. FINALLY!
And tonight I'll kick off a 3-day workshop teaching you exactly how this is going to play out.
Workshop schedule:
Saturday at 7 pm ET Sunday at 7 pm ET Monday at 8 pm ET
Needless to say, I'm very excited about small-caps. 2022 was brutal. January 2023 was a tease. The last quarter seemed to never end. But I believe it's over now.
Attend this 3-day workshop if you want to get dialed in for years to come.
From 2010-2020 RagingBull grew one of the biggest newsletters on the Internet, focused solely on small-cap swing trading, called Jason Bond Picks.
Small-caps peaked in 2021. It was a good year for me. Note half of the gains were from a long-term investment not related to Jason Bond Picks.
Results not typical. This was my best year ever. Trading is hard. Most traders lose money.
Then 2022 came. And it was the first bear market I'd seen.
I gave back a big chunk of my 2021 gains and learned a ton about trading in a bear market.
So when 2023 started I was so excited to see the small-cap bull starting.
I figured the last bull market was 10-years, if we get another 10-year bull market I'm going to crush it.
January sure looked like it was starting. The 2022 bear market was dead.
But not so fast.
The bank contagion crushed small-caps.
After 3 grueling months of choppy price action in small-caps, I believe we'll return to January's explosive price action.
More importantly, I'm nearly certain this is the start of a small-cap bull market.
Here's my thesis.
Remember back in January when we were crushing small-caps?
Here's a few of the alert recaps.

The January Effect was working perfectly.
And it sure appeared the 2022 bear market was over for small-caps.
Then banks collapsed.
And it's been 3 grueling months trying to swing trade small-cap momentum.
Talk about a choppy quarter.
But that changed on Friday and I'm nearly certain we will now resume where we left off in January.
And I'm not the only one.
The Nasdaq is already in a bull market.
It looks like the S&P 500 will cross into a bull market this week.
And I'm convinced this chart on the IWM, which broke the 200-day moving average Friday, is the start of its pivot from bear to bull.
Now it's going to be a while before small-caps get the official 'bull market' nod because we need a move of 20% off the lows.
But I think they'll catch up quick and again, the important takeaway here is sellers will lose total control over momentum, making these monster moves more prevalent.

Key takeaways:
Everyone is a better trader in a bull market.
Friday's break above the MA(200) signaled the end of the small-cap bear market.
Between now and when it's labeled a bull market we're going to see monster moves, like in January.
Once we're in a bull market, the strategy I taught from 2010-2020 is likely to work considerably better in this bull market because there are many more retail traders.
Bottom line:
I've been buying a lot of options, but those are much harder to trade than swing trading small-caps.
But nothing was working in that 3-month chop so there weren't a lot of choices.
That ended Friday.
Which is why I'm dialing in my Lightning Alerts service and schedule to swing trade small-caps again.
And tonight I'll kick off a 3-day workshop teaching you exactly how this is going to play out.
