We had high probable upside and SPX 7550 and 7530 bull puts paid.  No need to stress on how far will it actually go!

But how do you plan for that and/or execute on it?</p><p>Given market weakness in past day, and the gap up, I wanted a gap fill before considering long, so when yesterday&#8217;s action saw a push on open over premarket high, followed by a double top on ORB 15 high, I alerted I was taking 7520 bear calls.  Perfect plan!  We caught the hod reversal.</p><p>Then we broke 746.37 per the high probability idea and flushed.  I also perfectly alerted the lock in and was done for the day.</p><p>For those that stuck around SPY back test 746s and failed again around lunch time and head back down!  Where I alerted we may flush again in the afternoon adn that is exactly what developed.</p><p>Members of THT PRO get exactly this guide of guidance.  Its not frivolous banter, but explanations and sharing of what I see and am doing and/or planning.</p><p><br>Today, market may rallly, but I think it can be choppy will pull backs and resistance levels before another leg up (if we do run).</p><p>Market has been coiling been 740 and 755 for weeks.  we triple bottomed around 741 recently so lets see what price action gives us today.  Remember don&#8217;t chance, look for failed breakdowns if planning long and opposite for shorts.</p><div><hr></div><p></p><h2><strong>How to use AlphaOS to recognize shift in momentum</strong></h2><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://edumomo.com/product/tht-pro&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get THT PRO + Edge Trade Planner&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://edumomo.com/product/tht-pro"><span>Get THT PRO + Edge Trade Planner</span></a></p><h2><strong>Process = Profits</strong></h2><p>Lately I&#8217;ve been doing the following:</p><p><strong>Premarket</strong> establish where we likely wont reach.
