Market Recap

Hello team. Yesterday’s session provided us with my favorite trade setup - a failed breakdown or breakout of a key level.

Even with a major gap up our trade plan was able to capture a 55pt move in the market! Today’s trading was easy thanks to our trade plan where we had a target of 5040 and a breakout of it to target 5055. While we opened at 5051, sold towards 5040 and held it this triggered a failed breakdown of a key level and off to goes the squeeze.

From our trade plan yesterday we provided you with these ideas…

  1. Above 5025 target 5040

  2. If there is a failed breakdown of…

  3. If VIX continues going down then a breakout of 5040 targets 5055

We also shared real time updates throughout the day guiding our community on the long trade we were in. Heck we even had a perfect call on taking profits near the highs of SPX at 5095.

February’s trading session seasonality

SPX’s Seasonal Performance for February starts to show some weakness
SPX’s Seasonal Performance for February starts to show some weakness

It tracks with the larger yearly season calendar during an election year.

Election years are the second-best year of the four-year cycle, & the market has performed better with a sitting president running for reelection. There have been six election year declines greater than 5% since 1896 & the first five months of the year are stronger when the party in power retains the White House. But war can be a major factor.
