We nailed it yesterday again. 3/3 wins on our Credit Sells.

First we took the bear calls on 6860/65, then bull puts, using 6730/25 If I remember correctly and then back into bear calls.

All end at 0 by end of day :)

  1. Round 1 - bear calls - $2100 collected

  2. Round 2 - bull puts - $700 collected

  3. Round 3 - bear calls - $1200 collected.

What is Two Hour Trading?

Two Hour Trading is my system for finding and executing trades while spending less than two hours a day trading. My goal is to earn 100-300% on the capital I risk while waiting for 1000%+ gain trades to set up. Key benefits include:

  • High-quality trades with excellent reward vs. risk

  • Avoiding overtrading and losses from it

  • Trading to win vs. trading not to lose

  • Stacking the deck in your favor

SPY Breakout Trap: Survive 684 Chaos

Premarket bounce tests pivot—watch for failed upside rejection

Market Context

SPY premarket closed at 684.01, sitting just above the daily pivot at 681.53 after ranging between PMH 686.92 and PML 683.75. Over the last 5 days, price action shows choppy volatility with multiple failed breakouts above 686 and breakdowns below 682, forming a tight range around 682-685 on elevated volume. Bias leans neutral-to-bearish with premarket rejecting higher levels near prior resistances.

Key Events Today

No major events scheduled today, potentially leading to range-bound action.
