Trade #1 Turns Green – Add-In Pulse Bars Activated
Ahoy there, Trader! ⚓️
It’s Phil…
Well, ain’t I a jammy sausage?!
Yesterday’s group call turned into a mini confessional. I admitted my bull swing from last week was struggling. And unlike most hopeful gamblers, I don’t average down a loser. It had to prove itself — or expire.
We called out a rally from the range lows during the morning session.
We got it. I entered a new swing.
And just as I braced for another washout…
the market turned. Hard.
Straight up from mid-morning to the bell.
“Cheeky, cheeky!”
Exit at 15:59 with a tidy 73.3% ROC.
Let’s zoom in on the setup that paid… and how to catch the next one.

SPX Market Briefing
Today’s game plan builds on yesterday’s price behavior.
The new trade is in the green. That flips my mode into “Add-In Ready” – meaning new Pulse Bars can be stacked into strength if the setup justifies it.
But I’m not chasing. The range still matters.
My operating structure is:
-
Range high = 6060
-
Range low = 5940
-
Stay inside, play the levels. Break out? New game.
What changes things?
News flow.
A 12-day ceasefire in the Middle East just hit the wires. While geopolitical spikes haven’t broken the range yet, reduced tension could be just the psychological lift bulls need to push past 6060.
If that happens – I’ll be watching for a retest setup with size.
Until then, it’s system rules, pulse setups, and layered discipline.
Expert Insights:
Mistake #1
Averaging into a bad swing trade.
Fix: Force the market to prove itself first. No proof, no compounding.
Mistake #2
Ignoring range structures.
Fix: Know your levels. SPX between 6060–5940? Treat it like a battlefield trench. React, don’t predict.
Mistake #3
Panicking at headlines.
Fix: Let price confirm. The ceasefire is noise unless price confirms momentum. My system doesn’t guess.
Rumour Has It…
BREAKING: Percy Peanut declared “emotionally short” after reportedly chewing through Hazel’s risk iPad while yelling “BTC down bad!”
Meanwhile, inside the SPX chamber, not a ripple moved.
Sticky note read: Tag n Turn Confirmed.
Wallie tried to quote a fib level upside down.
Kash tried to log in to TradingView using a Monster can.
Hazel hasn’t blinked since Powell’s last pause.
This is entirely made-up satire. Probably!

Fun Fact – It Always Happens Fast… After You Wait
Pattern traders know the feeling:
-
The setup triggers.
-
Then nothing happens. For days.
-
Right when you give up… the move hits. Hard.
That was yesterday.
A textbook Tag n Turn setup we tracked all last week.
No breakout. No bailouts.
Until Monday.
Pulse bar… and boom.
Straight shot into the bell.
The reward? 73.3% ROC.
The lesson? The system doesn’t rush. But when it goes… it goes.
Happy trading,
Phil
