In yesterday’s letter, we wrote:

This is what happened. Overnight, we got the dip & defense of the 6300 key level that had a nice run. Then, post-opening bell we got the dip & defense of 6288 before slowly running to reclaim 6288, 6300 and 6311 to hit a high of 6316. $SPY ( ▲ 0.38% )  $SPX ( ▲ 0.41% )  $ES_F ( 0.0% )  

See how well the levels work?

Trading Plan

Today was another flat day, but this time on higher volume. The market spent the day grinding higher after the dip rather than giving up the rally completely.

Looking ahead, tomorrow brings existing home sales in the morning, though it appears to be a quiet day otherwise. Keep an eye on the overall market sentiment as we navigate these levels.

I am receiving some great questions from beginners. This is helping us develop guides for this group as well as the course. More to come but we’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, we’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.
