Hey Traders, Just yesterday, I told you this market was trapped. Stuck between the trendlines. And right on cue, the S&P rallied up into the long-term 200-day moving average… and then rolled right back over. Was it the Fed? That’s what the headlines are saying today. But let’s be real — if the market had […]

Hey Traders, Let me ask you something: Would you try to drive through a blizzard with no visibility? Or cross a busy intersection blindfolded? No? Then why trade a market you can’t see clearly? Every trader needs to know this: There’s a big difference between the easiest markets to trade and the hardest. And if […]

Hey Traders, Now, yesterday I gave you a challenge. I dropped seven tickers in your lap and asked you to do one simple thing: Use the chart blueprint I’ve shown you before to figure out whether each stock was bullish, bearish, or stuck in no-man’s land. Today, I’m going to walk you through each of […]

Hey Traders, Let’s do a quick recap. Last week, I showed you how to read a bear market like a pro — just by looking at three moving averages on a chart. No fancy tools. No complicated systems. Just structure. Then yesterday, I told you exactly where to focus: “Right now, we’re seeing some individual […]

Hey Traders, I never watch financial news. At least not on purpose. But this morning the radio happened to be on and I heard “S&P futures are down on ….” I didn’t even listen to the end. I think they said something about GDP. Honestly, it didn’t matter what they said. If you read yesterday’s […]

Hey Traders, I’m out here in Naples, Florida, soaking up the sun — and watching this market try… and fail… to push higher. Now to be clear, the market wants to move up. But it just can’t seem to do it. Why? Because there’s still way too much overhead resistance. And that resistance is acting […]

Hey Traders, Have you ever driven on a road without lines? Or maybe during a snowstorm or a heavy rainstorm where the lane markings get buried under all the mess? If that’s ever happened to you, what did you notice? You probably found yourself drifting without even realizing it. Maybe you veered too close to […]

Hey Traders, Let’s talk about something that trips up even the smartest traders… Hope. Hope can be helpful in life — but in trading? It’s dangerous. Especially in markets like this one. Yesterday, SPY closed strong — even popped above its 20-day moving average. But take a look at what’s happening today: a little up, […]

Hey Traders, Take a step back for a second. What’s happening right now in the market? Here’s a SPY chart. Take a look at it and think about what you see: Is it chaos? Is it crazy? Is it unpredictable? Nope.It’s just a downtrend… doing its job. Think about it: This is not chaos. If […]

Hey Traders, I’ve been talking to you a lot lately about the broad market — and how it’s been getting more and more bearish by the day. And yeah, if you want, you can go out and throw on a bear call spread on the SPY, DIA, or QQQ. Nothing wrong with that. But me […]
