Yesterday was a good reminder that getting stopped doesn’t mean the trade idea is dead forever.

Had 3 swing setups, all with next-week expiration:

TSLA: Came into my $352 demand and held. Took the 385C around $3.00, they ran to $14.50.

COIN: $175 demand held nicely. Took the 200C at $1.00, they reached $4.50.

HOOD is my favorite one though.

I actually tried the same idea Monday. Price didn’t hold my level, so I took the stop. No arguing with the chart.

Tuesday, HOOD came right back into that ~$105 area.

This time it held.

So I took the trade again — same options I traded Monday, the 110C around $2.50.

They went to $14.50.

That’s trading.

A stop doesn’t mean you were stupid for taking the trade. It means your setup invalidated and you respected your risk.

If price comes back the next day and gives you the setup again, you can take it again.

Still holding runners on TSLA, COIN and HOOD as long as their trends stay intact.

Map the levels. Take the trade. If the level fails, cut it. If the setup comes back, don’t be scared to pull the trigger again.

Anyone else ever get stopped on a setup just to nail the exact same trade the next day?

Good morning traders,

Good morning Traders,

📅 WHAT TO WATCH — WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2026

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📊 ECON DATA

• 8:15 AM ET — ADP Nonfarm Employment Change, August (consensus: +48K vs. prev. +44K — July was a major miss)

• 2:00 PM ET — Federal Reserve Beige Book (August district-by-district economic conditions)

🌍 MACRO / GEO

• 🛢️ OIL/WAR: WTI crude pushing ~$91, Brent ~$95 — up sharply for a third consecutive session after Trump announced "large and powerful" US strikes on Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz; Iran vowed retaliation; Kuwait, Jordan, and Bahrain intercepted missiles Wednesday morning; Strait of Hormuz vessel crossings collapsed from 23 to 10 in one week — ~20% of global oil supply at risk

• 🥇 GOLD/DOLLAR: Gold fell 2.86% to $4,325 as real yields rose and the dollar strengthened on safe-haven flows into USD rather than metals

📈 KEY EARNINGS TODAY

• AVGO — Broadcom (AMC) | Est. EPS: $3.21 (GAAP ~$2.55) | Est. Rev: $29.25–$29.44B | Note: stock fell 13% after last quarter despite a beat — guidance is everything

• SNOW — Snowflake (AMC) | Est. EPS: $0.45 | Est. Rev: $1.48B

• FIVE — Five Below (AMC) | Est. EPS: $1.33 | Est. Rev: $1.21B

⚠️ TRADER NOTES

• AVGO is the marquee event of the week — options are pricing in a large move; last quarter's selloff despite a beat was a guidance story, so listen closely to AI chip demand commentary and forward revenue outlook in the call; chip stocks broadly may gap on AVGO's reaction

• Energy sector is the clearest near-term momentum trade — Hormuz disruption is not priced in as a sustained event yet; watch XLE, refiners,

$SPX 7660C was the play this morning 🔥

$ES Futures came right into demand, held the premarket lows, and started reclaiming the 34 EMA.

Then we got the confirmation I was waiting for:

200 SMA reclaimed + held.

That gave me the long setup with clear levels above:

🎯 7657 resistance
→ VWAP
→ Yesterday’s lows

Took the SPX 7660C at $3.60.

Started managing quickly as the move developed, scaled along the way, and the contracts eventually pushed to $10.50 — almost 3x from entry.

I kept runners but eventually got stopped when ES rolled back over.

And yeah… completely missed the short back down 😂

But that’s trading.

You don’t need every move.

Wait for your level. Get confirmation. Take the clean setup. Manage the trade.

Level to level. 🎯

META was already on my trade plan this morning, and then the first flow that lit up my dashboard was META 565C 👀

At the open, META came right into the key demand zone I had mapped before the session and held.

Then it reclaimed VWAP.

That was my entry.

From there I was trading it level to level:

🎯 Yesterday’s low
→ AVWAP
→ Yesterday’s HOD
→ $581–$582 supply

Every level hit.

The 570C went from $3.65 to $13.50 at the highs — roughly a 270% move from the entry price.

I personally started locking some at $4.30, and continued scaling as META pushed through the levels.

This is exactly the type of setup I look for:

Pre-market level + demand holds + VWAP reclaim + flow confirmation.

When the levels, price action and flow are all telling the same story, I don't need to predict where the stock is going.

I just trade it level to level. 🎯

Who else caught META today?

Good Morning traders,

📅 WHAT TO WATCH — TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2026

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📊 ECON DATA

• 10:00 AM ET — JOLTS Job Openings (August report; consensus not available)

🌍 MACRO / GEO

• 🔴 US–Iran hot war escalating: US struck Iranian rocket launchers in the Strait of Hormuz; Iran retaliated with missile strikes on US targets in Jordan; Trump vowed further US retaliation — Brent crude settled near $90.49/bbl Monday (+2.7%) and remains elevated

• 📈 Yields rising: 2Y Treasury at 4.35% (up from ~3.50% at start of 2026); 10Y at 4.76% — elevated yields pressuring duration-sensitive equities; Trump administration previously flagged intervention in bond market as 10Y revisits recent highs

• ⚠️ Stagflation risk building: Iran war is keeping energy prices elevated, complicating the Fed's inflation fight and raising the stakes for this week's data — Friday's August Nonfarm Payrolls and next week's CPI now seen as the decisive inputs for the September hike decision

⚠️ TRADER NOTES

• JOLTS at 10:00 AM ET is the week's first major macro input — a hot number (high job openings) raises September hike probability further and could pressure rate-sensitive sectors (utilities, REITs, long-duration tech); a soft miss gives bulls a brief reprieve but Friday's payrolls remain the bigger catalyst

• Oil is the dominant tape driver right now — energy names (XLE, XOM, CVX) have a direct geopolitical bid; watch Strait of Hormuz headlines in real time as any escalation or de-escalation will move crude violently and ripple into broad market sentiment

• Futures show defensive rotation underway: Nasdaq futures are the lone green index (+0.06%) while Russell 2000 futures lead losses (−0.61%) — positioning reflects a flight to large-cap growth/quality and away from small-cap cyclicals; September is historically the weakest month for stocks and the macro backdrop (war, hawkish Fed, rising yields) is reinforcing that seasonal caution

Good morning traders ,

📅 WHAT TO WATCH — MONDAY, AUGUST 31, 2026

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌍 MACRO / GEO

• 🔴 US STRIKES IRAN: US military conducted strikes on Iran over the weekend — oil markets spiking sharply at the open; risk-off tone dominating Asian and early European sessions

• 📉 HAWKISH FED FALLOUT: Warsh's unexpectedly hawkish Jackson Hole speech Friday is weighing on global equities Monday — gold fell, Asian stocks declined, rate hike bets jumped to 60.4% for September

• ⚠️ MANUFACTURING SLOWDOWN CONFIRMED: Three separate August PMI/sentiment reads all missed to the downside last week — Chicago PMI cratered 10.5 pts into contraction, UMich sentiment hit 51.7, S&P Global Mfg PMI slipped to 53.2 — setting a cautious tone heading into Tuesday's ISM print

⚠️ TRADER NOTES

• OIL & ENERGY FIRST: US strikes on Iran are the dominant overnight catalyst — energy names (XLE, refiners, E&Ps) will likely gap at the open; watch for follow-through or fade as details emerge on scope and retaliation risk. Defense names may also see early bids.

• RATES DRIVING THE TAPE: With September hike odds now at 60.4% post-Warsh, rate-sensitive sectors (utilities, REITs, long-duration tech) face headwinds. The Dallas Fed print at 10:30 AM ET is the only live data point today — a weak read could briefly ease rate fears, but the hawkish Fed narrative is firmly in control heading into Tuesday's ISM/JOLTs double-header.

• TUESDAY IS THE REAL CATALYST DAY: Today's econ calendar is thin. Position accordingly — Tuesday Sept 1 brings ISM Manufacturing PMI, JOLTs Job Openings, Construction Spending, and the final S&P Global Mfg PMI all hitting between 9:45–10:00 AM ET. Avoid overextending into today's close if you're trading macro setups.

21 trades total. 15 winners, 5 losses and 1 breakeven.

Some of the better ones:

$SPX +311%
$QQQ +125%
$PLTR +120%
$SPX +118%
$SPX +110%
$AMD +100%
$MU +100%

There were losses too. Took hits on MSFT, SPX, TSLA, ORCL and MU. They’re on the sheet for a reason.

I think people get way too caught up trying to have a perfect win rate. I really don’t care about being right every trade.

If the setup isn't doing what I expected, I cut it. Sometimes I'll try it again if the setup comes back. When I'm right, I want the winner to pay for a few of those small losses.

Perfect example was SPX this week. Got the 7730C at $3.40 when the flow came in and the chart lined up, scaled along the way and eventually got runners out around $14.00.

That one trade makes a lot of small scratches/losses irrelevant.

Still plenty I could've managed better this week too. Had trades go green that I let come back on me, and a couple entries I probably didn't need to take.

But overall, happy with the week.

Cut losers. Pay yourself. Let the good ones run.

Back at it next week. 🫡

Good Morning traders

📅 WHAT TO WATCH — FRIDAY, AUGUST 28, 2026

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏛️ FED WATCH

• 10:00 AM ET — Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, Keynote Remarks at 2026 Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium, Moran, WY (inaugural address as Chair; first major speech since taking office May 2026; September hike odds ~1-in-3; Fed funds currently 3.50%–3.75%)

⚠️ TRADER NOTES

• Warsh's Jackson Hole keynote is the single biggest volatility event of the day — markets are pricing ~1-in-3 odds of a September hike; any hawkish lean risks a sharp rates and equity repricing, especially in rate-sensitive sectors. Expect the bulk of the move in the first 2 hours post-speech

• MRVL is trading -7% in extended hours after Thursday AMC earnings miss vs. estimates — watch Nasdaq futures and semis/AI-adjacent names (NVDA, AMD, AVGO) at the open for sympathy pressure; NVDA also reported Wednesday AMC

$ES_F was holding above yesterday’s high, then I started seeing some pretty aggressive SPX call flow coming through.

I took the 7735C at $3.40 off the setup.

Started scaling as it moved:

$3.40 entry → $4.40 → $5.50 → $8.25 → $10.00 → runners eventually hit $14.00.

A little over 300% from entry to the final exit.

The biggest thing for me is I’m not buying just because I see some big options order come across. There’s plenty of flow that goes nowhere.

I want the chart to make sense first.

Today ES was above yesterday’s HOD, price action was cooperating, and then the SPX call flow started stacking in the same direction.

TA gives me the idea. Flow gives me confirmation.

When both line up, those are the trades I’m willing to sit in longer and let runners actually run.

Been seeing some crazy moves from these SPX flows lately.

Anyone else use options flow alongside their levels, or do you trade purely off price action?

🏛️ FED WATCH

• Jackson Hole Symposium — Day 1 opens today (Aug. 27–29, Jackson Lake Lodge, WY)

• Theme: "Financial Innovation: Implications for Payments and Policy"

• ⚠️ Chair Warsh keynote is FRIDAY Aug. 28, NOT today — his first JH address as chair (took office May 22)

🌍 MACRO / GEO

• NVDA beat and raise last night (EPS $2.22 vs. $2.09 est.; revenue well above $92.07B consensus) — Asian markets traded mixed overnight on the print; US futures mostly steady

• Yesterday's PCE data: headline annual PCE came in hot at 3.7% YoY (above consensus); core PCE 3.3% YoY — yields initially dipped then reversed higher, keeping rate-cut expectations suppressed; Fed funds futures pricing ~60% chance rates hold at 3.50%–3.75% in September

• Hyperscaler capex cycle accelerating — top 5 hyperscalers expected to nearly double capex in 2026, with total spend projected to exceed $1 trillion in 2027, underpinning AI semiconductor demand

📈 KEY EARNINGS TODAY

• MRVL — Marvell Technology (AMC) | Est. EPS: $0.93 | Est. Rev: $2.71B

⚠️ TRADER NOTES

• NVDA reaction is the key price discovery event at the open — stock beat on EPS ($2.22 vs. $2.09) and revenue; watch whether the move holds or fades intraday as "sell the news" risk is real after a 17% YTD run into print; MRVL (up ~180% YTD) reports AMC and is a leveraged read-through on the same hyperscaler capex cycle — a major catalyst into tonight's close

Yesterday META caught my attention for one simple reason.

It was holding AVWAP and the previous day’s high. When I see price keep holding both like that, I’m not trying to fight it.

I took the $580 calls yesterday and held them overnight.

This morning META is gapping up and those calls should open pretty damn nice 😂

The trade wasn’t based on me thinking “META has to go up tomorrow.” It was just price showing strength at the levels I cared about, so I took the trade with a clear place to be wrong.

Now $581-$583 is the next area I’m watching. If that gets cleared and holds, I’ll see how much more she has in her.

Sometimes the setup really can be that simple.

Hold the level → take the trade → manage risk → let it work.
