Ahoy there, Trader! ⚓️
It’s Phil…
You know that feeling when the market does exactly what you’ve planned for? Yeah… that.
On today’s Fast Forward call, while retail traders were still scrambling to process the weekend tariff noise, we calmly executed a picture-perfect trade at 5400/5425 – the same level we’ve been eyeballing for weeks.
The setup was sharp. The timing was sweet. The confirmation came from both GEX flip alignment and one of those cheeky “…oh and…” analysis nuggets we always look for. Premium collected. Risk defined. Exit set.
By late afternoon, while the markets were flipping and flopping like a fish on a trampoline, we hit our $0.30 target and banked a smooth 90% profit.
No panic. No guessing. Just structure.

SPX Pays Daily. If You Know This One Setup.
Pulse bar + credit spread = reliable income. It’s that simple.
Let’s rewind for a second.
This trade was built before the open – not after. And that’s the power of planning.
-
Premarket Analysis: 5400 was identified as the GEX flip level – a major decision zone.
-
Market Open: SPX gapped up directly into our zone.
-
Confirmation: Fast Forward group walked through the “oh and…” extras – things you only get from real-time teamwork.
-
Execution: Opted for a 0DTE bear spread, aiming to avoid late-day chop and maximise the intraday opportunity.
-
Result: Entry at $3.00 premium, exit late in the day at $0.30 – textbook 90% win.
What made this work?
-
Pre-determined levels – no guessing.
-
Group discussion – refined the thesis.
-
Low-risk, fast execution – avoided big swings.
The beauty of this trade isn’t just the 90% return – it’s the simplicity. We didn’t need a perfect entry. We didn’t need a news edge. We followed structure. We trusted the system. And we let the levels do the talking.
Expert Insights: Chasing the move after the fact.
This is a common trading mistake:
How to Avoid It:
-
Define your levels before the open (5400/5425 was known hours in advance).
-
Let the price come to you.
-
Use 0DTE tactically when volatility is high – they let you avoid market chop while still capitalising on intraday edge.
Fun Fact
Did you know?
SPX pulse moves near GEX flip points often produce higher win-rate trades with faster time-to-target. This is because market makers adjust exposure quickly when price tags their hedging zone.
In today’s trade, the price literally bounced off the flip line, giving our 0DTE setup maximum edge with minimal time risk.
Let the pros hedge.
We’ll just trade their footprints.
Happy trading,
Phil
