Daily Prep On Point, But One Trade Slips By Anyway
Ahoy there, Trader! ⚓️
It’s Phil…
It’s another day and another dollar tossed into the market slot machine – and this morning I’m sitting here nursing a double helping of trader’s regret.
Yesterday? We had the setup. We had the plan.
And I went and missed the damn trade.

SPX Market Briefing
Let’s call it like it is – this was a clean bear entry. The system flagged it. I saw it. I prepped for it.
And then… life happened.
A meal with my wife.
Some music.
Cat time.
Relaxation.
“Ooops! The bear trade! Bugger!”
It happens. But in a month that’s been near-perfect, this little cock-up just kicked May in the shins.
Can’t unwind time. So what now?
We move forward and get ready for the next opportunity.
Here’s what I’m watching into today’s open:
-
Futures are off ~30 points – if that holds, we open with a drop
-
On the daily chart, we’ve got an inside bar – tight range
-
These bars often break one way and then snap violently the other
-
-
On the 30-min chart, we’re lining up a possible Tag n Turn
-
Price could break the prior low and the Bollinger Band,
-
…then rip back inside for a fast reversal
-
That’s the most likely setup this morning.
But I’m not ignoring the bearish scenario either…
If this drop accelerates and price stays under the lows, we could easily see a bear swing unfold.
That’s why I map out these scenarios. Not because I need to guess which one wins – but because I want to know what conditions to wait for.
Whatever happens, I’m ready.
The system will tell me what to do – I just need to stay out of my own way.

Mistake: Getting distracted on critical trade days
Why it hurts: One clean trade missed = no capital deployed on your edge
Solution:
-
Lock in trade triggers visually
-
Use alerts for Bollinger Tag or price break
-
Let automation (or checklist) take over once the prep is done
Rumour Has It…
“Sources” claim a major hedge fund caught the move.
Twitter’s trading bros are chest-beating.
Meanwhile, over here?
The AntiVestor trader was drinking tea and patting the cat.
Still… not a bad Tuesday.
This is entirely made-up satire. Probably!

Fun Fact
Inside days – aka NR4 bars – have a high statistical probability of trapping the first breakout.
The more narrow the range, the higher the odds.
So if we break the prior low this morning and don’t accelerate, you’ve got a textbook false-break pattern in play.
Tag n Turn logic applies, wait for the setup.
