Merchants,
Proper earlier than I talk about my high concepts for the week, I needed to briefly point out an essential commentary. An elevated VIX, as we presently have, is extraordinarily totally different from a subdued VIX.
When the volatility index is buying and selling at elevated ranges, swing trades turn out to be extra dangerous as vital in a single day directional gaps turn out to be doubtless. Move2Move kind buying and selling, together with buying and selling volatility merchandise and index ETF’s gives implausible alternatives every day.
General, the anticipation of a recession has now impacted flows and sentiment with shares, together with the next VIX, which places the general market and sectors in play versus particular person shares.
So, with a move2move focus and a dealer’s market mindset in thoughts, listed here are my focuses for the upcoming week:
Move2Move Bounce in SOXL
Virtually 60% off from its excessive in a matter of weeks and a aid bounce in SOXL is changing into more and more doubtless and enticing from a danger: reward perspective for me. For me, it has turn out to be extremely stretched, with an enlargement from important SMA’s and better timeframe capitulation to the draw back. As talked about, this isn’t a swing tape, so I’ll search for day trades. The one swing positions I’ll take are if the commerce works out nicely and closes close to the excessive, then I’ll take a small piece in a single day for a niche continuation.

Right here’s my plan:
The A+ model of the setup could be if the market gapped decrease on Monday and SOXL was down one other 5 – 10% +, organising an intraday washout lengthy reversal sample. In that case, I’d be carefully watching worth motion for indicators of a backside, trying to enter lengthy on the correct facet of V, i.e., as soon as the inventory marks a LOD – reclaims its intraday VWAP, and/or makes a big increased low, with quantity to again it up. I’ll be buying and selling this on a decreased timeframe as it’s not a swing place, utilizing increased lows as a path and lowering my place on increased highs and extensions from its intraday VWAP.
My plan in TQQQ—triple-levered QQQ ETF—is similar to the plan in SOXL. Like my plan in SOXL, a niche down or additional weak point within the general market at this stage within the down transfer would enhance the expectation of the commerce and general danger: reward for me.
Now, together with the final thesis and concept for the concepts talked about above, very comparable plans might be laid out for a number of shares which have prolonged to the draw back within the brief time period. So, in that regard, I’ve a rising record of names that I’m monitoring for comparable type strikes to the plan talked about above. For instance, MSFT is one other title I’m carefully monitoring for a aid bounce after it’s bought off virtually 13% from its excessive in just a few weeks, buying and selling at its lowest RSI since 2022. Once more, ideally, there might be additional draw back and washout under its 200-day SMA.

Along with monitoring a number of sectors and key indexes, my predominant concentrate on Monday and possibly all week, together with the general market (SPY), tech (QQQ), and SOXL, might be VXX – the ETN that tracks the VIX short-term futures.

An elevated VIX creates insanely nice move-to-move momentum scalping and reversion scalping alternatives. In these environments, I excel in quickly shifting gears from a swing mindset to a move-to-move mindset, and the VXX is a superb car for it. So, I’ll carefully watch VIX futures, the VXX worth motion and chart, and the general marketplace for cash-flowing scalping alternatives intraday.
Now, this can be a totally different type and mindset from what I’ve beforehand mentioned, with crucial changes being made, so I’ll talk about this in higher element within the upcoming Inside Entry assembly with you on Thursday.
