433.60 simple break.. puts paying if you caught some 430s

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$QQQ

risk off in this range of 446.50-433.60. not much to do here besides wait..

some setups can work with RS/RW paired with news but not much else going on

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$QQQ nice smiley face setup (IHS), needs 440.50 to to run

$AMD back at 170 from the false breakdown under 165, A hold of 170 sets it up for 172

$NVDA setting up for 900, 888 big spot here. needs through

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$SPY 5 min😴

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$GOOGL nice move off of 156.50 into 158.30.. was setting up for 160 but the flush in $SPY $QQQ dragged it lower. Ugly daily candle now.

$ARM glad we stayed away from that, rule of thumb is quick/large pops right before the market opens tend to get sold off.

$SPY failed at 520 and $QQQ at 442.40 again. QQQ now backtesting 440, struggling to hold but not giving it up yet.

$SPY back in the range of 516-518.20. Likely we see some chop until tomorrow with CPI/FOMC minutes

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$ARM 3 point pop premarket, chill with this one near the open. not chasing that 🤷

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

Trade Plan for 4/9/24

Good morning !

$SPY and $QQQ still range bound today but we are testing key levels of 520 and 442.40. These are the levels that the bulls need to take out to trigger a breakout. SPY possible to see 522.50 and QQQ possible to see 444.

$GOOGL nice breakout PM through 155. This can see a move into 158.30 and then 160 next. I would look for pullback entries today in the range of 156.50-155.70.

$ARM starting to breakout out of a multi day consolidation. Keep an eye on 130 for a move. Above 130 it has room into 133.60-135.

$AMZN back above 186.50 after the flush from this morning.. Not looking great for calls right now.. be patient with it

$MSFT nice push through 426.50 but couldnt test 428 yet.. still looks constructive if it holds 426.50

$QQQ hit 442.40 and failed so farm big spot for it. if it doesnt hold then we can see a fade. Over can set up for 444

$SPY into 520 now, Over 520 can see 522.50 next but if it fails Iw ould be surprised to see it fade

slow PA today

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

Trade Plan 4/8/24

Good morning!

$AMZN setting up for an ATH test at 188.65. AMZN over 188.65 sets it up for a push into 190 and ultimately 200 next. Im liking calls if we can see a pullback near the open into 186.50.

$MSFT keep an eye on 428. Once it takes out 428 it should be able to run through 430. Calls can work over 428. Under 425 it can be a a bit messy.

$SPY today will be all about the 520 reclaim and $QQQ will be about 442.40. If Over 520 SPY can see 522.50 again and QQQ over 442.40 can set up for 444-446.50. If we dont see a reclaim of these levels then I would be a bit more cautious of longs.

Trade Plan 4/5/24

Good morning folks.

Few names im going to focus on.

$GOOGL under 150 I like puts targeting a move into 148.50 then 147. This is showing some relative weakness here but we need to get a few tests of 150 before considering puts. if it reclaims 150 then it can pop back near 152.

$AMD got slaughtered yesterday. if this tests 170 but fails to reclaim I would consider puts for a quicker trade. Could fade back into 167-165. A reclaim of 170 could send it back into 172.

$SPY under 516 and $QQQ under 437.80 is bearish but if we see a reclaim its possible we see a small bounce today. Overall its a risk off type of day. Markets worried about a possible conflict between Iran/Israel. If we see news on this then the flush could continue.

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$META solid move through 523.57.. calls paid 100% if you caught them through there. Premiums were a bit trickier at first, but nice rally.

$MSFT all about 428 here.. if it gets through the 430c arent bad.. id like to see a slight pullback before though

$GOOGL keep an eye on 155, i like calls over this.. Its not giving up the 152 or the 153.80 support. good sign for the bulls

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$AMD very weak today, flushed 182.40 at the start. Cant catch a bounce yet today.. 178 needs to hold or else this can move back into 175

$META setting up for a new ATH breakout, needs through 523.57, already failed there this morning

$AMZN holding above 183 for now but struggling to make higher highs.

$SPY $QQQ slow right now, theyre trying to develop support but not able to make higher highs yet.. being patient for now

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

Trade Plan 4/4/24📝

Good morning all

$AMD im liking the look of this again as its back over 182.40 premarket. If this holds today I like the 4/12 190c for a move into 184-187.70. held 175 on Tuesday and we have been seeing a strong bounce.

$AMZN strong gap up through 183. This one is setting up for a new ATH soon. Finally able to take out the 180-181.20 range. Next weeks 185c can work if it tests 183 again and holds.

$SPY main level today is 522.50. Bulls need to hold this support while $QQQ needs to hold 444 and take out 446.50. Let the market digest a bit before making any trades.

pretty messy PA, just chill for now

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

4/2/24 Trade Plan

$SPY and $QQQ very weak price action with $SPY now under 520 and close to the 518.20 support and QQQ approaching 440. If SPY doesnt reclaim 520 today and we see a break of 518.20 then we can see a move back into 516. QQQ under 440 can set up for 437.80

$GOOGLs not a bad long if it gets a reclaim 153.80 and we see SPY $QQQ bounce. over 153.80 can see 155. if it doesnt hold 153.80 then 152 can come again.

$CRM if this backtests 300 and fails I like the 297.50p for a move into 298.50 and then 295. be patient with this one

todays likely going to be a bit messy since we are starting with a .50%+ gap down with SPY QQQ. Be patient

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$AMD noticeable strength.. held 182.40 on the pullback and now tagging 185. thinking this is gearing up for 190 soon but I would like to see a close over 184-185 today

$GOOGL tight consolidation at 155.. I would consider dips off of 153.80 honestly, would be a good add if it holds.

$QQQ holding 444 for now, but bounces are struggling a bit.. will need to reclaim 446.50 this week for a chance of a push.

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

$QQQ failed at 446.50 and now back under 444 which is the line in the sand for the bulls.. this is setting up for 440.

$SPY double top at 524 for now, this can see 520 this week. Under 520 sends it into 518.40, 516

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

4/1/24 Trade Plan

$SQ: strong gap up into the key 85.80 resistance. If SQ takes out 85.80 following a pullback at the open then it can set up for a run into 86.50 and then 87.20. Under 85 its likely we see it chop today.

$AMZN decent gap up this morning, and is back above 181.20. If 181.20 holds then we have room into 182.50 then 185. Under 181.20 I would avoid it until 180.

$SPY needs to hold 524 which sets it up for 529/530 next. Under 524 its possible we see a backtest of 522.50. $QQQ needs to take out 446.50 for calls. Its currently in the range of 446.50-444 so until it clears this range we can continue to see chop.

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

Japan I ❤️ you

[Dan Trades @TradeWithDan3]

good morning🙏

$CRM all about 300 today post earnings. if CRM can base above 300 today then the next main stop for it will be in the 313 range. Some smaller resistances at 305/308. Calls can work over 300.

$AMD needs to hold 178 today and if it can then the 180c will be in play. Once it reclaims 180 then it should be set up for a run into 185.

$SPY is all about 508 today and $QQQ needs to hold 437.80. over 437.80 sets it up for 440 again and $SPY over 508 sets it up for 510 again.
