Tom Bruni, CPA, CMT

Director, Community & Content @CMTAssociation. Analyst & financial media exec. Views my own, unless I'm hacked. Then all bets are off.

[Tom Bruni, CPA, CMT @BruniCharting]

Personal Update: I’m returning to my roots, officially joining @CMTAssociation as Director, Community & Content (Americas) to build, engage, and amplify our community across the Americas.

For those who don’t know, I discovered Technical Analysis in my senior year of high school, and it just clicked. As I carved out my place in the finance world, CMT Association’s events and members were invaluable resources; they taught me first-hand the power of community and the organizations that support it.

After 15 years as a member, I’m "flipping the script" and joining the team to help create more success stories like my own and advance the discipline even further.

Member value is maximized when content and community work in sync. I’m here to ensure we are a living, breathing ecosystem by focusing on two core principles:
- Amplifying the Community: We have thousands of members and candidates globally. My focus is on scaling our city-level communities and ensuring our volunteers have the systems and support they need to thrive.
- Elevating the Content: Our members are already doing world-class work. My job is to leverage and package the incredible insights already being produced to drive visibility for our members and the discipline at large.

CMT Association’s future is bright, and I want to thank @_TBone_Pickens and the team for welcoming me on this journey in advancing the discipline of Technical Analysis.

If you are a member, volunteer, or partner in the finance space—I’m excited to hear your ideas on how we can continue to move the industry forward together.

You can reach me at [email protected]. Or join me this month at these two community events:
- Boston Spring Summit (May 14-15)
- Canada Quarterly Summit in Toronto (May 26)

@FusionptCapital A $300 Chromebook also has keys and a screen. I see nothing different outside of branding, professor.

We’ve come a long way from people freaking out during Brexit 2016 when robo-advisor Betterment paused trading proactively.

Now we’re rolling out AI agents to manage retail brokerage portfolios en-masse.

What a difference 10 years make

[Joe Weisenthal @TheStalwart]

Robinhood will soon allow users to set up AI agents that trade stocks on their behalf https://t.co/ndcsT7dN27

Using price’s distance from the 200-day moving average is a good way to measure the potential risk in a stock. @JayWoods3

When extended more than it’s historical precedence, price will:
- Consolidate over time
- Correct in price
- Experience a combination of both

Kicking off @CMTAssociation Q2 Canada Summit with @_TBone_Pickens and @JayWoods3

Starting the day with everyone’s favorite topic, bubbles. Specifically the AI bubble.

The question is, when does it correct? We can’t know, so enjoy it with a risk management plan for when it does

I chose a wild ten weeks to disconnect lol.

Luckily there’s always something happening in markets, so I don’t stress about missing the current “next big thing.”

In Toronto for the @CMTAssociation Q2 Canada Summit. Excited to get back to a normal schedule & building cool things

@stevehou @tracyalloway Good luck with your next steps Steve, excited for whatever is ahead for you!! Enjoy the weekend

[Tom Bruni, CPA, CMT @BruniCharting]

Every bubble is fed by the same belief “this time is different.”

Every bubble ends with the same realization “It wasn’t different this time.”

@dlundgren3333 breaking down why we can’t see a bubble when we’re in it. @CMTAssociation

The odds of a left tail event are about 6x higher during a mid-term election year. 😳

As we enter a potential “summer swoon” seasonally weak period, but pullbacks are a buying opportunity on the way to S&P 7,700.

How do you look at the market in a structured way to answer key questions:
- what’s the market doing?
- probability it continues?
- where’s the risk?
- where’s the opportunity?
- how do we adjust?

It’s not even 9 am and @DKellerCMT has already brought up the Hindenburg Omen.

Learning the key differences between a mindful investor and a mindless one.

Initial takeaway: If you don’t have a consistent process it’s hard to make good decisions consistently. @CMTAssociation
