Saturday Trades Friday Update 12/29/2023

Last day of the year – Markets close strong

Today is the last trading day of the year, markets could go either way. However, the strong rally will not be wiped out today. It would be no surprise to see some selling although markets are higher right now.

As we look into the new year, there is no reason to suspect that this rally will die in a whimper. We expect a big up week to start the year with a possible blowoff to sell. Either way we are prepared

All rolls should be complete but if not take what you can get.

Roll QQQ (new strikes 410.78/404.78) and IWM to Tuesday.
