In Friday’s letter, we wrote:

This is what happened. The market defended key supports overnight and then bounced. Post open, we drifted lower, all the way down to the the 5468.64 low of day which was right at the 5466 must hold level mentioned. We defended here and this was crucial, as it set the stage for a robust rally that surged all the way back up to 5540 demonstrating the power of the support zones we identified. $SPY ( ▲ 0.04% )  $SPX ( ▲ 0.06% )  $ES_F ( 0.0% )  

See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan

Today was a consolidation range day characterized by lower Monday volume, but the defense of those key levels was a strong indicator of underlying strength. We managed to rally from the low of the day back up through the resistance, showcasing that the market could still push higher.

Looking ahead, tomorrow brings several important reports including JOLTS jobs data and consumer confidence, which could impact market sentiment. Keep an eye on how these events may shape our trading environment moving forward.

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.
