$SPY

– Opening internals 30 minutes into the gap. Subtle improvements with TICK/Q mainly lighting the way. /ES and /NQ wouldn't be surprised to see chop due to size of gap... ME ME ME. Opening fade is over for now.

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$TSLA – Great... Does anyone even want an Optimus?

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$MU

– Anyone buying the gap fill reversal into the weekend with the Qs falling out of bed?

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$SPY

– Beatings will continue until morale improves.

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

Laying the swing account to rest until thinks shape up at the index level... flat as of yDay at 9:40 in that account. Some stand out leadership from

$MU

,

$DELL

,

$ANET

. If the market wants to shape up, I can see these being some first targets to get engaged with... TBD

$GOOGL

– Notes from earnings... blehh... NVDA up on no TPU competition and more capex.

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$GOOGL

– Market maker expected move.

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$GOOGL

– Capex still growing at triple digits Y/Y

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$TSLA

– Market maker move for earnings.

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$SPY

– Not a stellar look for longs at the exchange. Some pockets of strength out there in markets, but broadly speaking, looks like the damage is taking hold from FRiday.

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$SPY

– Mid day internals are looking okay, and most notably, the gap up did not lead to an immediate distribution... still lots of time between now and 4:00p but for now its looking like "OOPS" is right!

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

Unless just long from the opening drive, I find this morning pretty difficult to execute... one of those days.

Sector leadership... You tell me, risk on or off?

[The Trade.Brigade @TradeBrigadercc]

$SPY

– Opening internals on the gap down

[The Trade Brigade @TradeBrigadeCo]

$SPY – Internals mid day are looking a bit softer than we've seen recently. So far the market still fails to really accelerate to the downside noting that we're really just balancing in the prior day's range.

From the weekend video, "Pullbacks will likely be mild, and met with a bid from all those who missed the first leg higher."

Feels like that thus far.

$SPY – Markets are opening on a gap up towards new all time highs thanks to AMZN making a massive investment in Anthropic that the market sees as bullish. Will it fuel higher prices?

Let's begin.

$SPY – No traction on either side. Given the current state of the market... probably wise to dodge the short ideas and instead let the market figure out if it wants a higher low pullback or digestion via time.
