In this video, John Carter breaks down why the recent bounce in the market may be tradable, but not enough to signal that the larger downtrend is over.

You’ll also hear how interest rates, gold, oil, and broader macro pressure are shaping the current environment. It’s a timely market update for traders trying to separate a short-term rally from a true trend reversal.
In this video, Bruce Marshall breaks down the market’s wild reversal after overnight selling flipped sharply on geopolitical headlines.

Bruce also highlights Coherent (COHR) as a bullish stock idea and shares a defined-risk butterfly setup to target a potential move into earnings. It’s a solid look at how to stay defensive in a shaky market while still finding selective trading opportunities.
In this video, TG Watkins breaks down the recent market selloff and explains why traders should be careful pressing the short side after such an extended move lower.
