The US Supreme Court has ducked hearing the case of Trump, Texas & 17 other states, on a procedural issue
They did not comment on any recent newsworthy fraud allegations
Trump still refuses to concede, so what are his remaining long shot legal routes?

....that, after careful study and consideration, think you got \u201cscrewed\u201d, something which will hurt them also. Many others likewise join the suit but, within a flash, it is thrown out and gone, without even looking at the many reasons it was brought. A Rigged Election, fight on!

1) There is still this dormant PA Republican Party vs Boockvar US Supreme Court case, but it may remain dormant, since the Court already indicated yesterday that it (understandably?) simply doesnāt want the serious heat on this one
A pending Supreme Court judgement in the case of Boockvar decides Pennsylvania

That was not a fraud case. The number of votes is secondary
It is about auditing a temporary mail ballot ringfence, imposed till a constitutional case against alleged judicial activism in PA is heard https://t.co/ek8gkDibKZ
2) Mon Dec 14th Electoral College need to cast their votes alongside their statesā choice (the crux of the dispute)
Matters escalate if:
i) the Electoral College is tied
ii) āfaithlessā electors donāt vote for their state candidate
Note: in the key swing states, this is legal
It is important for election heads following this story to note that in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and Georgia the electoral college is *not legally obliged* to vote as their state did. If disputes about election integrity continue, what these electors think, will matter

OR:
iii) the House rejects some Electoral College votes, resulting in neither candidate receiving a majority.
3) If the above long shot occurs (arenāt we already in unprecedented times?) what happens next?
Under the 12th Amendment, when the House meets Jan 6th they can refuse to approve the Electoral College votes. They instead vote on a 1 vote per 1 state basis
Trump wins that vote.
Just finished my morning ride and yoga and Iām going to use Mikes tweet to elaborate on not only his quote and topic but something I have found very dear to me. Itās something I do real time without even realizing it anymore. Itās second nature and it brings me happiness

Happiness is the goal,
But greatness is the mission.

For every person in trading happiness and greatness are two completely different things or could even be the same thing
One traders happiness could be executing with precision even if a red day and still walk away happy while others could be happy with ājust being green.ā

On this, greatness is different to every trader
To some it could be executing with precision or, like me, it could be that you find greatness and happiness in being able to look into your coachās eyes or accountability parents eyes and say....

I did what was required of, when it was required, where and how it was required
I have no regrets. I executed my edge as seamlessly and flawlessly as I could
This is stress free trading. This is something I thank @FuturesTrader71 for. āWe have no outcome on the market.ā

If youāve made it this far. Good. Now the āgood partsā.
Something I have found myself doing over the ages as time goes on is āauto adjustingā my entry sizes, stops, and profits
Nobody ever taught me this. There are no oblivious statistical calculations or ratios for me...
