🔎 Thousands of stocks. Which ones deserve your attention?
Here’s a workflow to narrow the search:
🌎 Theme Trac → Find the strong groups
🎯 Leader Trac → Research the stocks leading
📍 Plan Trac → Define the entry, targets, and invalidation
🚫 The goal isn’t a bigger watchlist.
⭐ It’s a shorter list with a clearer reason behind every name.
☑️ That’s the process behind Trade Tracs.
👑 Follow for more theme-to-trade breakdowns.
What a week; a lot of action, a lot of news, and a lot of information to digest.
Tonight around 10PM I will be going live on X to go over my trades for the week and analyze some of the information we gathered.
Be there or be a rectangle.

2️⃣ $CCI – [Earnings gap up]
Entry [ Entry on at premarket highs or premarket lows]
Stop [ Directly below the level I enter]
Target [ Next resistance level]
We are seeing a relief bounce in a lot of the tech themes but I am not convinced the gap will hold because of macro pressures, Oil and Bond Yields are both up.
I am going to wait out the first 30min and review where rotation is at that point to decide on specific names.

I have taken one trade for a W today.
I was not seeing much premarket because a lot of stocks were oversold and below key levels. I also did not have confidence that the gap up would hold with oil and yields up.
What I did see was the $SPY trading at a key level and I took puts on the rejection of this level. I sold into strength at the break of session lows with momentum slowing up.
Friday premarket, how are we ending the week? xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1PKqrNOen…

💡 Lesson: Wait for confirmation

I took a second shot at $META and hit.
This time I waited for stronger confirmation and got it.
Lesson learned, I cannot rush my trades.
so far I took one loss on the day on $META.
I took a trade that is outside of my edge and paid the price for it.
$META sold off on earnings and was holding near a weekly level. I took an entry on the reclaim and retest of the weekly level and sold for a small loss when it lost the level.
I traded my plan but not my edge.
We are getting some important information today.
Will the market shrug off mixed earnings?
The answer so far is no, we are seeing a lot of selling and defensive rotation premarket on mixed earnings being reported by $TSLA, $IBM, and $META.
We need to use this information moving forward for the rest of earnings season, this will help us plan out each day and what action to expect.
We will see the price action at open, and we could still get a bounce but so far, the reaction is to sell.

Ugly premarket, let's see what is going on xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1RJZzBdXk…
We are seeing the upside and downside of earnings.
Today we had a nice session sparked by earnings for $SPCX and prelim numbers for $SMCI.
Afterhours is gapping down on earnings reported by $TSLA, $IBM, and $META.
We will see in tomorrow's premarket the real impact of these earnings, but the first look is not great.
Join me tomorrow at 8:30AM as I go live and we find the best themes and stocks to trade for the day.

$SPCX: [Earnings reaction breakout trade]
💡 Lesson: When trading news catalysts you need to watch the price action closely because it can fade quickly.
Today I mainly took one options trade in the morning and sat on my hands for the remainder of the day. The reason being is the stocks I planned to trade did not give me other setups.
I could have scanned mid-day to find something else, but I wanted to be prepared and not give into FOMO.

Solid day for the AI Trade and this was all prompted by earnings headlines.
Last quarter's earnings had similar reactions where negative earnings news was shrugged off, and the positive news made the market run.
The other thing that happened last earnings season was expectations were super high for the AI Hardware names and if they didn't beat by a lot, they sold off on their reports.
Tonight we get our first real taste of what to expect with $META $TSLA and $IBM all reporting afterhours.
Let the fun begin.
