SPX continues to climb, pushing through the middle of the range, with 6100-6120 as the next profit target.

Once we reach it, I’ll assess for a Tag ‘n Turn reversal, looking for bearish pulse bars or a V-shaped reversal. Until then, it’s a waiting game – either for profits to roll in or for hedge triggers to flip.

Meanwhile, I’m off on a wild adventure to the zoo, keeping an eye on the markets (and maybe a few flamingos) from afar.

SPX has been stuck in a sideways range, with Monday’s Tag ‘n Turn setup landing at the range low.

The next target is 6100, where we’ll either see a range reversal or a bullish breakout.

Given the short distance to target, scaling in isn’t ideal, so for now, it’s a waiting game—either for bullish targets to hit or for bearish hedge triggers to fire.

Monday’s market drop, thanks to the latest Tariff War drama, saw SPX plunge hard, pushing our bear trades past their 95% & 98.3% profit targets.

During our Fast Forward Group Call, we focused on when to pause trading and when to resume – a crucial but often ignored skill. Instead of rushing in, the plan was to:
– Delay new entries and wait for more confirmation.
– Define bullish & bearish triggers to re-enter the market.

Bullish trigger has fired – favouring a rally.
Bearish trigger now serves as a hedge if markets roll over.

This move mirrors last Monday’s sharp drop, so the approach remains the same: watch for price confirmation, trade smart, and let the market show its hand.

Friday’s range reversal is already paying off thanks to weekend tariff chaos sparking a massive futures sell-off. ES Futures plunged as much as -120 points, stabilising around -80 points (-1.3%) ahead of the open.

Bear swings from Friday are printing near-maximum gains and will be closed at the bell.
Bull swings still have time, but may need rolling to manage the trade profitably.
The market will gap down significantly, breaking last week’s range.
Best play? Let the dust settle before taking new positions—wait for confirmation on follow-through or reversal.
Plan of action: Reviewing live in today’s Fast Forward Group Call.

SPX is tightening up, with Bollinger Band Width nearly confirming what we’ve already seen – price contraction.
A narrow range has formed, meaning I’m pausing my Tag ‘n Turn setups and shifting focus to range-based trades from my six money-making patterns – buying range lows, selling range highs.

A breakout will eventually come, and I’m already positioned bullish.
But with $ADD at a bullish extreme, a trip to the range low before any breakout is possible.

For now, it’s a hurry-up-and-wait game – and since it’s my birthday, I’m clocking out early!

Yesterday played out exactly as expected – a challenge of the inside bar high, followed by a sell-off into the FOMC decision. Now, we’re seeing a similar pattern setting up again on the cash chart.

Futures are up slightly, hinting at a potential gap higher before any real move unfolds. I’m still leaning slightly bearish short-term while staying bullish overall.

My bullish income swing is open, and my bear hedge is in place should things roll over against expectations.
