Since most of my timeline is just predications and shit-posting...

I wanted to give you a valuable process you can use for days like Friday

Post Sell-Off Market Reset Plan:

A large down day often changes the market's character.

Breakouts fail, leadership rotates, support levels break, and many charts that looked attractive a few days ago are no longer actionable.

The goal after a large market sell-off is not to immediately find new trades.

The goal is to identify what held up best, remove what is no longer working, and rebuild a watchlist around the new leaders.

Step 1: Accept That the Market Has Changed

After a significant down day, assume that some of your previous watchlist is no longer relevant.

Many stocks will:

-Break key moving averages
-Lose momentum
-Trigger stops
-Require weeks to rebuild proper bases

Avoid forcing old ideas simply because they were on your watchlist before the sell-off.

The market does not care about yesterday's focus list.

Step 2: Clear Out Weak Charts

Review every stock on your watchlist and ask:

-Did it break key support?
-Did it lose the key moving averages?
-Did volume expand on the breakdown?
-Is the chart now damaged?

If the answer is yes, remove it.

A smaller list of quality setups is more valuable than a large list filled with broken charts.

Step 3: Scan for Relative Strength

The most important task after a large down day is finding stocks that resisted the decline.

Look for names that:

-Held up well relative to market weakness
-Closed near the middle of the candle range
-Held above key moving averages
-Refused to break support

These stocks often become future leaders once the market stabilizes.

When institutions continue buying during market weakness, that information matters.

Step 4: Re-Evaluate Themes and Sectors

Leadership often changes after corrections.

Ask:

-Which sectors held up best?
-Which themes continue attracting volume?
-Where is money flowing despite market weakness?

Focus on the strongest sectors first, then identify the strongest stocks within those sectors.

Strong themes produce strong leaders.

Step 5: Build a Fresh Watchlist

Create three categories:

Tier 1 – Relative Strength Leaders

Stocks that held up exceptionally well during the sell-off.

Tier 2 – High Quality Pullbacks

Strong trends that experienced healthy pullbacks into support.

Tier 3 – Rebuild Candidates

Stocks that were damaged but may become actionable again after forming new bases.

Prioritize Tier 1 names.

Step 6: Let the Market Prove Itself

Do not assume the first bounce is the bottom.

Allow:

-Support levels to hold
-Breakouts to follow through
-Volume to confirm
-Market indexes to stabilize

The best opportunities usually appear after the initial panic, not during it.

Step 7: Reduce Aggression Until Conditions Improve

After a large sell-off:

-Trade smaller
-Be more selective
-Demand stronger confirmation
-Focus on execution over P&L

Market conditions determine aggressiveness.

When conditions improve, exposure can increase naturally.

Key Question Every Night

Instead of asking:

"What can I buy tomorrow?"

Ask:

"What stocks are proving they deserve a spot on my watchlist?"

The stocks that continue showing relative strength during market weakness are often the same stocks that lead the next advance.

As stocks start to cool down a bit and set back up in bigger bases

The 8 week EMA will be your best friend...

This is where all the BEST stocks start to consolidate:

Most traders think strength means a stock needs to go straight up.

In reality, the healthiest leaders spend time digesting gains.

After a strong breakout, early buyers take profits, new buyers step in, and the stock enters a period of consolidation.

During this process, the best names often refuse to give up much ground and instead build a tight base directly on top of the 8-week EMA.

This is important because it shows demand remains strong enough to absorb selling pressure without causing a meaningful breakdown.

As the stock moves sideways, the 8-week EMA gradually catches up to price.

Volume frequently contracts as volatility decreases, signaling that sellers are becoming exhausted and shares are moving into stronger hands.

The longer a stock can hold above a rising 8-week EMA while building a constructive base, the more significant the setup becomes.

When demand returns and volume expands, these consolidations often serve as launchpads for the next leg higher.

Many of the market's biggest winners don't form deep corrections during their strongest advances.

They simply pause, build a base around the 8-week EMA, and continue higher.

Strong stocks don't need to fall far to reset.

They consolidate, let time do the work, and then trend again.

A ton of stocks are setting up like this right now, and will give you some incredible opportunities.

[Sean trades @SRxTrades]

If you watched my video from yesterday, you were prepared for the incredible opportunities we got today

Some incredible OOPS reversals across the board off key levels

-Stocks gap down
-Test key level/ema
-Reclaim previous days low

High probability entry on the reclaim with LOW risk

This will change your trading.

If you are not making money during this run:

You are likely trading the WRONG stocks..

For the last few weeks, all I've done was:

-Focus on strong themes (Semis, space, memory)
-Buy these names on pullbacks into the EMA's
-Hold these winners & don't sell too early

Once these start building bigger bases, now you are going to look for rotation into emerging themes.

How to know where to look?

1. Start With Relative Strength

Emerging themes always leave footprints.

You’ll notice:

-Certain groups stop selling off during weak markets
-They recover faster than indexes
-Multiple stocks in the same niche begin moving together
-Volume starts increasing across the sector

For example:

$IGV was making new highs while $QQQ was still below the previous all time highs

This showed relative strength in the ETF, and software stocks began to emerge with strong setups

2. Scan Weekly Charts First

You will start noticing that when almost every stock in a sector is setup on the weekly timeframe.. and explosive move follows.

Emerging themes usually appear first on:

-Weekly bases
-Weekly breakouts
-Multi-month consolidations

For example data centers recently.. all had a massive weekly base

3. Follow Volume Closely

Volume is one of the clearest signs of institutional participation.

You will start noticing:

-Highest volume EVER print
-Accumulation volume patterns
-Low volume sell offs
-A breakout with expanding volume often signals real demand

This tells you that institutions are piling into the trade

4. Watch for “Character Changes”

One of the earliest clues is a change in behavior.

Examples:

-Stocks stop failing on breakout attempts
-Pullbacks become shallow
-Names begin closing near highs instead of lows
-Weak sectors suddenly start holding moving averages

A new theme usually starts with:

-Better closes
-Better reactions
-Better continuation

before the headlines catch up...

For example $PLTR and $HOOD in the last few days.. starting to act much better and changing their characters.

5. Track News Narratives

Themes are often tied to macro narratives:

-AI spending
-Government backing
-Defense budgets

Follow themes, and stocks that have a REASON to go higher.

For example drone stocks last week, after the news that the government might take a stake...

Now this becomes top watch.

6. Focus on the Leader (Most important)

Every theme usually has:

-a leader
-secondary names
-laggards

The leader is where institutions concentrate first.

Your goal is to find the strongest theme, the strongest sector, and the strongest stock in that sector.

Characteristics of a leader:

-breaks out first
-has the best volume
-holds moving averages best
-reacts strongest after pullbacks

Most importantly... stack probabilities

Theme + Catalyst + Setup + Leading stock = super performance

Someone's buying $IBM 295 C 08/21/2026 for $4.1M

[Sean trades @SRxTrades]

Added a few new positions today

Whenever there's so many great setups in the market.. the one thing I ask myself is what sector am I missing?

I could pile into every single semi stock... or try to get different STRONG themes like:

-Space
-Quantum
-Software

Being ahead of the rotation is what I'm interested in...

Added $ORCL breaking out of a massive daily base on volume (Software exposure)

Grabbed some $RGTI into the 8 ema (Quantum exposure)

Bought some $NEXA shares off the 8 ema as well

When there's so many good setups, just have to ask yourself; what names do I want to own and why?

I'm looking for:

-Theme
-Catalyst
-Volume

[Za @ZaStocks]

After market participants saw what the SpaceX IPO did for space stocks it’s pretty reasonable to assume the Anduril IPO anticipation could have a similar effect on drone and defense stocks…

Watchlist for tomorrow, 5/27:

$QCOM 250%+ today off the ATH breakout. Still like it tomorrow if volume expands.

Also swinging $TSLA. Gap from $434-$444 still sitting above and the weekly looks strong.

$TSLA
$QCOM
$IREN
$AFRM
$MRVL
$AEHR
$MP
$ALAB
$ARM

As long as names keep reclaiming PMH + PDH and making higher highs, I’ll keep taking these momentum setups.

More money to be made✍️
