In yesterday's letter, we wrote:

For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 6131, 6118, and 6094.

As long as we hold above 6094, we want to look for long entries—this may be off 6099 or a dip and defense at 6118/6127. If we get the move, we can push through 6131 to 6143

This is what happened. The levels played out exceptionally well today. Overnight, we never lost the 6099 level, providing a solid foundation for a bullish run. After a brief dip, we successfully reclaimed the 6118 level, which led to a strong rally that took us all the way through our target of 6143, reaching a high of 6147.43.

See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan

Today was highlighted by a nice overnight dip and bounce, setting fresh all-time highs, although it did occur on lower volume.

We are now looking forward to tomorrow, where we have unemployment data scheduled prior to the open, as well as at least four FOMC member speeches throughout the day. These events could introduce volatility, so it's essential to keep an eye on the market reactions to these developments.

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:

For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of…
