Making your way in the world today,
Takes every thing you’ve got.
Taking a break from all your worries,
Sure would help a lot…
Theme song from Cheers

The first step to curing an addiction is to admit that you have a problem.  Ok, I admit it…I am addicted to the market.  I obsess over it.  I crave information. 

But those readers that have purchased the K.I.S.S. Investing Program know how I talk about taking a break from the market.  Stepping back and clearing the mind is critical so that you don’t get burnt out.

Well over the last nine days, I was practicing what I preach.  I took a much needed break.  The first one in two years.  I mentioned in my Unplugged article a few weeks ago that I was going to Canada to visit my wife’s family.  I was really looking forward to it, and I wasn’t disappointed.  I was able to play golf, see the Maliseet Reservation, visit with family, and go for a few boat rides up the Tobique River.

My wife’s aunt and uncle live right on the river and each morning I awoke to one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen.  The sun coming up on the incredibly calm (and cold) water was breathtaking.

Perhaps the most beautiful part for me was that their home is so remote that I was unable to get neither high-speed internet nor a cell signal.  Remember, I am an addict and if the temptation is there, I am going to get my fix.  Uncle Stewart even blocked CNBC from the satellite while I was there.

Stock Market Shocker: How a Bunch of

5th Graders Made Fools of the Trading Elite…!

Wall Street wants you to believe that you have to entrust your money with the professionals and all their skills, resources and systems, if you want to make money in the markets. It’s what these guys do for a living! How could you possibly beat them?!

Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, I have used an embarrassingly simple secret to make $15,048 in just 30 days… and boost my overall account balance 152% in less than a year.

So while I was on sabbatical what was going on with the K.I.S.S. Investing Program?  Because I was able to leave strict instructions with my colleagues, K.I.S.S. subscribers were not without instructions.  In fact, subscribers were able to take two profitable closeouts last week.  On one trade, they closed the first third of the trade at a 50 percent gain.  And that was in just three market days.

On the second closeout, subscribers were able to lock-in gains of over 250 percent on the final third of a call position on Gilead Sciences.  The overall gain was over 150 percent.

So while I was clearing my head in the clean air and waters of Canada, K.I.S.S. subscribers were knocking down two big winners.

The best part is yet to come.  I have been trading now for over 20 years, and my previous experiences with coming back after a vacation have been wonderful.  I actually went back and tracked my trading results after a vacation and almost all of my most profitable periods came right after a vacation.  So hold on to your hats K.I.S.S. subscribers, if history repeats itself, we are in for a nice ride over the next few months.

Good luck and good trading,
Rick
