Market Remains Extended


The market is a bit extended, so keep that in mind this week. On the weekly chart, many names are trading at 3+ average true range (ATR) away from the mean, so probabilities-wise we are closer to the end of the move than the beginning. We are continuing to see Big 3 Buy Signals on the SPX, and we could still see a push into $5,000. One thing to watch is the hourly Big 3 Squeeze on the ES Futures.

SPX Time For Takeoff


This week, the S&P 500 (SPX) pulled back to the 21 exponential moving average (EMA). Since then, the market has been trading around $4,955, and my Big 3 Squeeze signals point to a path into $5,000.

In today’s video, I review signals on the SPX and setups on Shopify (SHOP) and Google (GOOGL):

+100% Return in NVDA


Another day in green territory. We finally took profits in NVDA, locking in over a 100% return after being long since December 27th. This trade is a great example of the Big 3 Squeeze and Risk:Reward setup we are trading in the Compounding Growth Mastery. Be cautious of holding bigger positions overnight, and wait for setups on lower timeframes.

Here is the NVDA entry trade alert sent in the Compounding Growth mastery:

Be mindful of the economic calendar this week with major events like the FOMC Statement and Jobless Claims. Also, high-concentration stocks like AMZN, META, MSFT, and GOOGL report earnings this week.

$SPX To $5,000


The monthly squeeze on the S&P 500 (SPX) fired long. The Big 3 shows weekly and daily buy signals with a ten score on the Big 3 Squeeze bull score labels. Everything points to the market heading towards $5,000, but everything looks overextended, so we could get a pullback before heading higher.

In today’s video, I reviewed my thesis on SPX and looked at other good setups in the market, like Google (GOOGL), Nvidia (NVDA), and Meta (META).

Will GOOGL Be Our Next Big Trade?


The S&P 500 (SPX) has a daily squeeze, and the Big 3 Squeeze is signaling for it to potentially fire toward the upside. A few weeks ago, I mentioned the weekly squeeze on Nvidia (NVDA), and I took that trade in my Compounding Growth Mastery. After closing my profits, we parlayed them recently into another March expiration debit spread with a target of $600. Now, Google (GOOGL), is setting up similar to $NVDA. Let’s see if Google (GOOGL) can be our next big trade.

In today’s video, I break down levels on $SPX, $NVDA, and $GOOGL:

Alignment For A Move Higher

There are a handful of squeezes on the S&P 500 (SPY). The Big 3 Squeeze is signaling for a push higher. For next week, pay attention to the smaller time frames to get full alignment for the daily squeeze to fire towards the upside.

In today’s video, I break down the SPY and other setups to look out for in NVDA, GOOGL, and NFLX.

Bullish From The Ground Up


The bulls took the lead to start the week. Last week, I noted that the “bigger timeframes say buy-the-dip, while the lower timeframes say not yet”.

Despite the pullback last week, the higher timeframes remained bullish. The “issues” last week stemmed from the lower timeframes. Now that things are more aligned from the ground up, the key is to see how the bulls handle the first dip.

In the video below, we will review the structure of the market (SPX) and walk through the names on our watchlist including NVDA, GOOGL, TSLA, and more.

Market Still Showing Bullish Signs


The market finally sold off this week. The main level I’m looking at for the market is the high of July 2023. As long as the bulls keep the price above that level, I will continue giving them the benefit of the doubt and steer my focus away from going short and, instead, look for a spot to buy the dip. Despite the pullback, the Big 3 scores still show bullish signs on the weekly, daily, and 4-hour charts.

Let’s break down our game plan and some trade ideas on names like Microsoft (MSFT).

A Bullish New Year


The market is due for a pullback. However, I suggest spending time analyzing monthly charts across the market. Since the 1980s, the monthly squeeze on the S&P 500 (SPX) has printed 11 out of 12 times, causing a massive push for the market. Since the squeeze officially fired long, the market could head towards $5,100 in the first Quarter of this upcoming year.

All I Want For Christmas Is The Squeeze To Fire Long


Merry pre-Christmas! The Big 3 shows 9 out of 10 across the daily charts, remaining bullish. Tesla (TSLA) and Google (GOOGL) remain my top two watch list picks. The monthly squeeze on the S&P 500 (SPX) officially fired to the upside.

Let’s break down a swing trade setup on SPX:

I hope you enjoy spending the holidays away from the charts with friends and family! There will not be a newsletter on Monday, December 25th. Keep an eye out on Tesla and Google next week and follow me on Twitter for more updates.
