Cool off day. Nice sell off to the downside in the AM & defense of key levels (& the breakout).

This is a repost of Friday’s letter for Monday.

In yesterday’s letter, I wrote:

“For tomorrow, we need to hold the breakout. I believe the lowest buyers are going to want to see us retest is 4193 possibly 4183. If we do get down there we better bounce quick because then we would be at risk of losing this breakout.”

This is what we saw in today’s price action. We did test the lower range there and the breakout was threatened. It was defended though and 4183 held in the end.

This was a lot of time spent down at the key level though.

Is the breakout at risk? More in the trade plan below including targets for Monday.

The 0DTE $SPX 4175 puts ran from a low of $135 to $971 = 619% gain.

I traded these, and caught a small part of the move from $480 to $560. I had already traded some other puts prior and this was a small scalp. I did make a mistake though, on my next and final trade. I started seeing how much I left on the table and jumped in again at a bad time. More in the trade recap below including a lesson on something to avoid!

Below, we’ll cover the actionable levels, how I played them today and what they mean for the next session.

Levels from last night were great (15 min chart). I traded puts for the big move down. The levels let me know where we should reject on both downside and upside. Always trust the levels!

Now we are sitting in AH right on the 4183 support level. What does this all mean and where do we go from here? Read below for my trade plan which includes actionable support & resistance levels, outlook for the next session and today’s trade recap.
