QQQ Rally Trap? Here’s the Put Spread I’m Scaling Into Now

If the market breaks down after OPEX, this QQQ trade could pay big. And if we stay bullish, IWM might be the best long setup. I’m running a full macro “vibe check” using some key market puzzle pieces: SPY, VIX, Oil, Dollar, and High Yield Credit. Here is my risk-first strategy session.

Market Rally EXTREME: Is Friday the Trap Day?

When the market does something rare—like a 7 day SPX rally—it’s hard to avoid the emotional trap of chasing late-stage moves. Here’s some clarity on key levels (6800, 6710) and how to think in probabilities instead of predictions. This matters because long-term success isn’t about catching every move—it’s about managing risk, staying patient, and knowing when to press and when to step back. Consistency is built in moments like this.

SPY’s “Two-Week Extension” May Be the Start of Something Big

Is a big green day just noise or the start of a real trend? In this video, I show how SPY’s April timing pattern mirrors last year’s major low, why the 618 retracement mattered today, and how Fibonacci extensions create a clear upside roadmap. I also explain how to use market maker expected move pricing to validate whether a July target like 716 is realistic, and how traders can structure defined-risk options trades (like a 700 butterfly) to position for a summer rally.
