Hey—it’s Brandon.
I’m going live tomorrow at 2PM ET with my latest Silent Surge session, and I want to flag why the timing matters right now.
On the surface, volatility looks muted. The VIX is sitting near 13.8, and with the holidays in full swing, most traders are assuming January will take care of itself.
But the data says otherwise.
The three-month VIX is trading at a 28% premium, which tells me institutions are already positioning for a 5–10% correction in the next 30 days. That kind of spread doesn’t appear by accident—it shows up when hedging activity quietly ramps up ahead of risk.
Tomorrow, I’m breaking down what I call the Atomic Hedge—a way to prepare for a volatility event without needing to predict the exact catalyst or headline that triggers it.
If you’ve been following Ghost Prints, you’ve seen the consistency:
Six consecutive winners, including gains of 62%, 67%, 46%, and 62%, and nearly 50 winning trades since April 1st.
One member recently put it better than I could:
“Brandon is amazing. He answers questions live, and I’ve learned more in three months than I did in 30 years.”
During the live session, I’ll walk you through:
What the VIX term structure is signaling as we head into early 2026
How the Atomic Hedge is structured and why it works
How Ghost Prints tracks institutional hedging activity in real time
Real examples of positioning before market corrections
If you plan to trade in January, this is the preparation work.
See you live,
Brandon, CMT
