Hey Trader,


The Power of Words in Trading and Life


In trading, as in life, the words we speak hold incredible power.


Proverbs 18:21

Speak life into your trading journey.


Encourage yourself with positivity, patience, and discipline, and you’ll see the fruit of your efforts grow in time.


Let your words empower your path forward.


Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

$9K+ No News Tuesday - Spotting The Opening Bell Reversal


As traders, we know that every day presents new opportunities, and this morning was no exception.


Whether you’re a seasoned trader or still learning the ropes, the key is to focus on making calculated decisions based on solid market analysis.


Today, I want to share some insights into the trades I made, the opportunities we identified, and how I approach the market with precision.



I’ll explain the rationale behind each move, what I saw developing in the charts, and how I responded in real-time. Let’s dive into the details.


Early Morning Market Analysis


When I entered the market this morning, I noticed we were hanging near the rolling VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) on a 4-hour set.


VWAP is a critical tool for identifying areas of support and resistance, and today, I used it to guide my trades.


I took a couple of small short positions as the market pushed below the VWAP, but quickly exited with minor profits.


The price action was showing signs that we might not retest that area, especially when considering the order flow readings near the prior lows.

The Third Short Trade: Identifying a Key Resistance


The real opportunity came just before the opening bell.


I saw a solid resistance level, and I took a short position for the third time, this time with greater conviction.


As a part of my trading services, I provide these key levels to my clients for both the S&P 500 and Crude Oil markets.



As expected, the market reversed sharply at that key resistance point, and I quickly locked in profits once again.


Timing is everything in trading, and capturing these reversals allowed me to capitalize on the momentum while minimizing risk.

Managing Risk and Advancing Stops


One crucial aspect of my trading strategy is how I manage stops.


I always look for opportunities to protect my gains by advancing my stop as the trade progresses.


This morning was no different. By moving my stop to lock in profits after each significant move, I ensured that even if the market reversed, I was protected.


Right before recording this video, I advised my clients that if the market broke the low of a specific candle, we would likely see a continuation to the downside.


We were eyeing potential targets near previous lows, and possibly even a break below those levels. It’s all about following the evidence the market provides.

No Major News, Just Good Trading


One interesting point about today’s session was the lack of significant news releases.


Without any major economic data to disrupt the market, it was a fairly smooth session.


Sometimes, no news is the best news because it allows the technicals to play out cleanly.


The S&P 500, NASDAQ, and Gold all saw upward momentum early on, providing several great opportunities to go long.


In the Crude Oil market, however, the action was pointing towards a potential move lower, which we were ready to take advantage of.

Lessons for Traders


There are a few key takeaways from today’s trading that I think every retail trader can benefit from:


  1. Identify Key Levels: Use tools like VWAP to spot areas of resistance and support. These levels can provide excellent opportunities for both entry and exit points.


  2. Protect Profits Early: Don’t be afraid to take profits when the market gives you the chance. I exited quickly on a couple of trades this morning, locking in small gains, because I wasn’t convinced we would retest certain areas.


  3. Advance Your Stop: Managing risk is crucial. As a trade moves in your favor, move your stop accordingly to ensure you protect your profits.


  4. Stay Focused, Even Without News: Don’t rely solely on economic releases to guide your trades. Good technical analysis will always give you a framework to operate within, even on quieter days.


What’s Next?


I’ve documented all the trades I placed today in detail—where I entered, where I took profits, and how I managed my stops—inside the blog post.


You can see exactly how I traded, learn from my process, and apply similar strategies to your own trading.


I’ve also discussed the opportunities we identified in Gold, the NASDAQ, and the S&P 500, so make sure to check that out.

I hope you found this breakdown helpful.



Stay informed, stay focused and stay disciplined ! ! !



Thank you for reading, and I look forward to seeing you in our next session . . .


God bless, and have a wonderful day!

U.S. Government Required Disclaimer Stock, Futures, Forex & Options trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk and it is not appropriate for everyone.

CFTC RULE 4.41 Hypothetical or simulated performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

IMPORTANT NOTICE! No representation is being made that the use of this strategy or any system or trading methodology will generate profits. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. There is substantial risk of loss associated with trading securities and options on equities. Only risk capital should be used to trade. Trading securities is not suitable for everyone.

Cryptocurrency Trading Cryptocurrencies on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for everyone. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before getting involved in Cryptocurrency trading you should carefully consider your personal venture objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial deposit and therefore you should not place funds that you cannot afford to lose.

Hypothetical Results Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations - unless noted otherwise that an image or any material discloses live money was used, results displayed or openly discussed are to be assumed simulated for educational purposes only. No live money brokerage accounts will be traded or displayed by request or otherwise.  Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs, in general, are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.
