In yesterday’s letter, we wrote:

For tomorrow, we’re closely watching the key SPX levels of 6557, 6589, 6609, and 6631. With today’s dip & defense and an intact uptrend, we’ll continue to seek long entries on any pullback into the 6603/6589/6557 zone or on a direct defense at 6557. A bullish hold of 6609 overnight would confirm strength, and a push through 6616 into 6631…

This is what happened. We witnessed a solid dip and defense of the critical 6557 level overnight, which set the stage for a strong rally that reached as high as 6631. During the regular session, we also saw multiple defenses of the 6557 level,allowing the market to push up to 6616 by the close. $SPY ( ▲ 0.04% )  $SPX ( ▲ 0.08% )  $ES_F ( ▲ 0.09% )  

See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan

Today proved to be a fruitful consolidation day, as the market whipsawed through various headlines. With a major White House deadline approaching tonight, any news could have a significant impact, potentially driving the market in either direction.

Additionally, tomorrow we expect a 10-year bond auction and the release of FOMC meeting minutes, both of which could further influence market sentiment.

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.

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