Good Morning Traders! Hope you all enjoyed your evenings! Let's get ready for a day full of awesome trading!

As always, here's yesterdays's answer:

Imagine there are 3 coins on the table: gold, silver, and copper. If you make a truthful statement, you will get one coin. If you make a false statement, you will get nothing.
What sentence can guarantee you getting the gold coin?
"You will give me neither copper nor silver coin." If it is true, then I have to get the gold coin. If it is a lie, then the negation must be true, so "you give me either copper or silver coin", which would break the given conditions that you get no coin when lying. So the first sentence must be true.

And here is today's riddle of the day...

OUCH!

With pointed fangs it sits in wait,
With piercing force it doles out fate.

Over bloodless victims proclaiming it's might,
Eternally joining in a single bite.

What am i?

I was thinking maybe a vampire!

Bloodless, not a nail gun....I've been pierced by one. I would go with "criticism."
