Tuesday’s Price Action (Education)
You don't try to make $100,000 ...You don’t start by saying, I’m going to make the biggest most profitable trade and turn $1000 into $100,000 and fix all my bad trades before.
You say, I’m going to plan and execute 1 trade as perfectly as I can today. You do that every single day, and soon you'll have a $100,000 and likely much more!
Please note all times are Eastern/New York regardless of what time zone I happen to be in.
SPY / SPX
Yesterday I wrote watch for 546 to get rejected. I’m glad I waited until the afternoon to trade SPY because I missed the morning long on the failed breakdown and rip into 547. How does one. read this price action? Overall it’s tricky. Following the rule for waiting after the first hour there was a bounce of vwap, then the open was tested and then SPY based over vwap and mostly over 546 for 2 hours. Based on that one has to wait for a range break, but you can see how during the two hours SPY was make slightly lower highs. I train at the gym most day between 12pm to 1pm and so I missed the 12:45pm entry on vwap break. That is ok! Instead I planned. I decided that I believed we would flush into 542 by the close! I call this the Spectre Special Yolo. THT PRO members have seen my last hour targeting pay 1000-2000% and yesterday was no different!
SPX 5460p dipped to 0.90 and we looked for SPY to…
If you missed the entry at $1. there was plenty of time to get in for 1.50-$2!
Here is what the option contract did from where I gave the idea.
NVDA
This was tricky. Normally after first hour I look for gap down reversal, but given the recent rally and trend, I choose too believe we had all day seller on our hands. I mised the entry on 123 area for a short so I waited for first hour to complete. During this we saw 122 break, and then saw it get back tested. Notice how it gave a second pop that turned into a failed push as it got close to 122. As soon as price got below the previous high, that was my trigger to load up and jump in.
Because it was Monday I choose OTM contracts. Here is what the 115p did. Nice 100% gainer in 15-30 minutes! or risking 0.20. a 5R trade!
I also chose 120p and because the stops was so tight this gave a 10R result.
The 120p spiked to over $4.20!
SMCI
On Friday 876 stablished itself as support so on Monday when it broke, I immediately became bearish. We want to join trend. So during first 15 minutes 876 was tested and then a little later we got 870 / vwap back tested. That was my goal for entry. I started in at 9.50 and got an 8.50 average.
I used Edge Trade Planner to plan the short on 800p. Why 800? I want out of the money since it is Monday and the contracts will give better yield.
T1 for 4R hit easily. And by end of day T2 hit!
Here is what the 800p did:
TSLA
This was a perfect 2 level gap up reversal trade. I alerted to THT Pro members I want to short 188.50. And we got it perfectly.
Here is what the 185puts did. Following process we locked some in at 185 and the rest in at 183 for the gap fill!
Ideas - Plan for Tuesday June 25
Stick to process. The process and trade setups I teach works. Rinse and repeat over and over again. There will be losses. Any good system will have them. Being systematic also means the gains will repeat and come again too. If you keep changing your system/process trying in an effort to never lose a trade, you will never get to where you want to go.
Ideas
Give the gap up this morning after tagging lows and levels below in premarket, I’m inclined to believe today will choppy and we can move in either direction out of range with a bullish bias. So I will essentially be patient and probably look for just 1 or 2 solid trade setups and call it a day. I def want to avoid over trading today!
