Today we sit down and chat with Professional Trader Kimmy Sokoloff.
I’m lucky to have known Kimmy for well over a decade, and we hit it off from the start.
Kimmy went through the CMT program in the 90s. And funny enough, volunteered later on with the CMT Association to grade Level 3 exams, which are mostly essays. We joke that she most likely graded mine in 2007-2008.
While I like to look out weeks and months for my timeframes, Kimmy focuses specifically on the hours and days. A 2 week trade for her is “Long-term”.
We’re both trained in similar ways, as CMT Charter holders. But our experiences are different.
Kimmy spent most of her career in Institutional Sales and Trading. She spent decades on the phones all day with huge funds.
So when Kimmy has something to say, we want to listen. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Guess where we’re at again?
We’re at a point where the Adani Solar System constituents get another upgrade (well, wherever applicable).

Commodities and rates are at the center of everything right now. And why wouldn’t they be? That’s where the trend is clear. That’s where the momentum is! Keeping this trend in mind, one specific commodity will be highlighted in this post.
This is a commodity that has made it to our trade ideas several times in the recent past. After a minor consolidation, the price seems ready for the next move. What are we talking about?
