TLDR:
Stripped charts to pure Tag n Turn mechanical structure
Bullish setup triggered just after open on 30 April
Executed a 1-DTE broken wing butterfly, OTM, collected $5.00
Exited next morning on rally for $0.10 debit – net 98% ROC
Strategy offered ample wiggle room – trade would’ve survived a 100-point drop
A reminder that simple + mechanical still outperforms
Viva the income trade. Viva the process.
...TLDR
30-min bear pulse bar setup triggered at open
Executed a 0-DTE option trade: $3 credit / $2 risk
Price reversed, forming a new bullish Tag n Turn swing
Bear day trade = max loss
Swing setup = small profit
Net result = system still profitable
No mistakes made – just part of the mechanical edge
Process over outcome – and this trade affirms it
...Came in bullish – mechanical system fired a bearish pulse bar after first bar.
Mechanical “Tag ‘n Turn” setup confirmed on 10-min too.
Bullish exit level from morning analysis flipped into bull swing – bonus talk later.
Got positive slippage – an extra 10¢ credit ($3.10 total).
Exit hit around lunch while enjoying some Downton Abbey reruns.
Another clean system trade – textbook mechanical profit.
... TLDR – Bear Setup Amid Bull Shift
Market gapped up and broke through 5400
Initial plan: flip to bullish bias as outlined in morning prep
Around 60 mins into the session, GEX and ADD triggered caution
GEX resistance at 5450 + ADD at bullish extreme = bearish potential
Bearish tag ’n turn confirmed short entry at ~5455
Premium collected: $3.00, exit at $0.40 for 86.7% ROC
0-DTE day trade – no swing position due to unfolding bull scenario
The system paid… even during dinner
...SPX once again delivered a textbook 0-DTE bearish setup.
Entry came from Wednesday’s morning analysis – confirmed live in the Fast Forward Group.
Bias remained bearish below the 5400/5425 zone, with Wolfe Wave targeting 5000.
Trade dithered mid-morning… then roared south.
$3.00 premium collected, $0.30 exit hit early afternoon = 90% ROC.
That’s 3-for-3 on day trades this week with swings still on.
Bear profits flowing, corks popping soon.
Today’s SPX trade was almost a mirror image of yesterday’s.
Price stalled again at the 5425 GEX Flip – just as mapped in the morning analysis.
Trade was taken live during a 1-to-1 training call – real-time execution, real structure.
Same structure: 0DTE bear spread, premium collected = $3.00, buyback at $0.30.
Exit hit early afternoon – another 90% return, clean and simple.
If you didn’t catch it… let’s talk about why.
