In yesterday’s letter, I wrote:

For tomorrow, I am closely watching the key SPX levels of 5513, 5492 & 5573.

…we can target 5525, 5536, even 5549.

If we are unable to hold the 5492 level then it’s short to 5485…

If we chop without making a move it is likely above 5492 and below 5549 or so.

This is what happened. It turned out to be a chopfest of a day as we navigated through the levels without making any significant moves. The day opened around the 5525 level but struggled to maintain upward momentum as it oscillated between our key levels of 5485 and 5549. The SPX managed to reach a high of 5546.3 but was unable to reclaim the crucial 5573 level, leaving traders cautious.

See how well the levels work?

Despite the choppy action, we respected the levels laid out previously. Now that we are back in the range, do we hold here or are we bound for further consolidation? The critical levels remain the same, and how we manage them will dictate our next moves.

Note a possible double bottom on the daily chart, which may indicate that support has been found. Volume was relatively high but a tad less than yesterday's trading session.

Looking ahead, tomorrow brings more employment data and at least two FOMC members speaking during the session. These events could provide the necessary catalysts to break through current levels or reinforce our sideways action. Keep an eye on the key levels as we navigate through the upcoming dat

I am receiving some great questions from beginners. This is helping me develop guides for this group as well as the course. More to come but I’ve created a separate channel in the discord just so you can not be shy about bringing those questions to the group. No question is dumb, we grow stronger together!

In fact, I’ve created this single resource as a guide. It is a living document and we will continue updating it. You must be logged into the site to read it:

As readers know trading after a massive move in either direction is risky.

Trying to predict when trend will break is a fool’s game because the trend can be stronger than you ever realize.

Going with the trend is hard because it has already run so far (or dropped) and move may be close to over.

All you can do is pick your entries carefully and with proper position sizing. Trading out 1-3 DTE or further also helps soften the blow.

Yes it will decrease the amount of profit but will greatly help keep you in a trade long enough to see return.
