Big announcement ! 🚨

I’m hosting a FREE trading masterclass on October 20th at 5 PM PST.

FOMC is coming up and you need to be prepared for it.

I’ll break down what I expect from the market, the stocks and setups I’m watching, and exactly how I plan to trade the opportunities ahead.

We’ll also get into the habits that separate consistent traders from everyone else: managing risk, knowing when to attack and when to sit in cash, and keeping FOMO from taking over when the market starts moving.

If you’ve been waiting for a clear game plan for Q4, this is one you don’t want to miss.

October 20th. 5 PM PST. 100% FREE.

TRADE PLAN For LOTTO Friday 📈

Alright we are in the extreme fear category BUT no real panic yet. There's still lots of pressure on Semiconductor and AI related stocks. I think we see one more flush before FOMC next Wednesday before we start to carve out a bottom. The fact that $QQQ broke under last Friday's lows is not a good sign for tech. $QQQ under 700 we can see 693,685 next. $SPX to 7500 in play if it breaks under 7620 as well.

Tread lightly and make sure you're not going all in BEFORE FOMC. That's how you get cooked. $SMH can drop to 500 on the next leg lower, this is most likely where a short term bottom will form. $NBIS 145 is the prime buy zone if it drops there next week. $SNDK if they flush this one more time we can see 1000 before midterm elections.

It's a risk off environment until after FOMC. I've been saying this since last week. Survive a bit longer we're getting closer to a bottom. 🫡

Do you find it hard to make trading feel simple?

If so, don’t worry...

It’s NOT because you’re not smart enough.

The best retail traders always say the game is designed to make you think it’s complicated.

They say it all comes down to one thing...

And if you struggle with consistency and knowing when to act...

...it’s probably because nobody ever showed you the 4 things that actually matter.

Luckily, there’s a super simple way to cut through all the BS...

So you can start trading with ease WITHOUT wanting to throw your computer out the window.

$100 a day is $500 a week.

$500 a week is $2,000 a month.

Even small wins compound fast.

Don’t rush the process.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

The next straightforward trade for the upside will be AFTER FOMC.

We saw on July 30th and Sept 17th.

Until then let it all drop.. $SPX to 7600 next, $QQQ to 700 in play.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

TRADE PLAN for Oct 22nd 📈

BIG gap down this morning, $SPX will open up under 7700. This volatility is unforgiving, every other day the market changes direction. IF SPX can't reclaim 7700 today we can see another dip to 7620. The past 2 FOMC meetings we saw the market sell off right into the meeting, it's possible we see a similar setup again. IF SPX fails at 7620.. 7500 in play next.

$META dropped from 748 to 673 after earnings. $TSLA also down 14 after earnings as well. Chip and memory stocks selling off after yesterdays rally too. $MU under 900, $SNDK back near 1300. Lets see if SPX and QQQ test last Fridays lows. If they break those levels we'll see the next leg lower to 700 for QQQ and SPX drop another 120 points.

Be careful and be patient the next few days. Good luck everyone! 🫡

You’ve been trading for over 3 years and it feels like you’ve just wasted your life.

You’ve tried it all. Forex. Options. Futures. Prop firms. Even Crypto.

Some of it worked for a while. You were hyped. Then the same habits caught up with you and you started blowing accounts again.

And now you’re not the 24-year-old with no mortgage, no kids, no real responsibilities anymore.

You’ve got a life now. Bills. A partner. Real pressure to provide.

So the stakes are different. You can’t afford to keep f*cking up in the markets.

Here’s what I’d tell you to do. Step by step.

1. Remove the pressure to make money.

Get a job, a side hustle, whatever. You need to remove the “I have to make money trading right now” pressure before anything else works.

2. Pick one thing and commit.

One market. One setup. One risk framework. And don’t touch anything else for a year.

3. Do less.

Stop watching every candle. Stop clicking buttons. Follow the plan and let the trade run according to the plan.

4. Find someone to hold you accountable.

A mentor, a partner, a community. Someone who acts as your manager, coach and reality check all at once. Be comfortable making progress alone… but don’t shut out opportunities that help you hit your goals faster.

5. Make decisions BEFORE the move.

Your job is to prepare to get in before you even see the move. Enter. Set your parameters. Walk away.

That’s how you become profitable and stay profitable.

TRADE PLAN for Thursday 📈

Ping pong market.. $SPX and $QQQ stuck in a 5 month range... We should see a resolve from this AFTER FOMC. As long as $SPX can hold 7700 and $QQQ forms a new base above 716 we should see a push back higher by the 1st week of November. Until then, tread lightly and preserve cash....

We saw negative reactions to $TSLA $IBM $LRCX earnings today and the Chip/AI stocks are all gapping lower now. Until we see $MU $SNDK $AMD $NBIS lead the market again, I'd be careful sizing up in this environment.

$QQQ will enter it's 6th month of consolidation in November but I doubt it stays in this range. Get ready for a BIG move soon in the next 2 weeks.

Good luck tmrw everyone!! 🫡

Trading is like chess.

Losing pieces is part of the plan.

Don’t let emotions cost you the whole game.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

Trading is not about winning trades.

Trading is about executing your plan.

Winning is a byproduct of consistent execution.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

So much noise in the market.

You'll look back 3 weeks from now and wish you bought the dip.

Ignore all the fear mongering. Its all nonsensr.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

Before you pick a strategy, ask yourself one question.

If you have a $25,000 account and you lose $10,000, how does that feel?

If it makes you sick to your stomach, weekly options probably aren't for you. Trade monthlies, go two months out, or just buy shares.

You can't copy someone else's style and expect to get rich. Know your pain threshold first.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

As long as $SPX can hold 7700 and $QQQ hold above 719 for today, i'd stay bullish.. We still have $META earnings coming up after hours. If there's a positive reaction...

$QQQ to 734, $SPX to 7780+ in play next. We're seeing a rotation into Software stocks $PLTR $CRWD $ZS today, chip and memory still just average after the gap up this morning

$BTC popping back up near 85k as well... Price action looking better in $MSTR.. MSTR to 200 once we see BTC run to 100k.

[EliteOptionsTrader @EliteOptions2]

TRADE PLAN for Oct 21st 📈

The market is gapping higher after $SPCX earnings. We're seeing $SPX Up 20+, $QQQ up 4.5 premarket, CHip and memory stocks also showing some signs of life as well. $MU if it pops back through 950 we can see 1000. SNDK gapping above 1400 as well. $AMD to 560 in play if it can hold above 540 today.

$META earnings is coming up after hours. The past 2 earnings it dropped about 8% each. It's already dropped 100 points the past few weeks. Let's see if it can pop back up 50-60 points after earnings.

$SMH 539 should be the bottom for now, It can run back to 600- in November.

Good luck toda yeveryone!! 🫡

To become an elite trader:

You don’t need high IQ.

You don’t need a degree.

You don’t need to fail for 10 years.

You just need high emotional intelligence.

Everyone wants to buy the dip until it’s time to buy the dip 🤔

October hands traders a dip almost every year. So do midterm years. In 2026 they land on the same calendar, and some of the most valuable companies on Earth are trading well off their highs

THE CRASHES
1929: Dow -12.8% on Oct 28, then -11.7% the next day
1987: Dow -22.6% on Black Monday, still its worst day ever
2008: S&P -16.9% for the month as the Lehman fallout spread

A speculative bubble, a market-structure meltdown, a credit crisis. Different causes, same month, and every one of them eventually became a buying window

THE OCTOBER STATS
Typical recovery: about 4 months
Midterm Octobers: +3.0% average, green 73.7% of the time

Nobody buys the exact low, and nobody needs to. Every rebound $SPX has historically paid the people who kept buying good names on the way down

SCENARIOS
Bullish Scenario: $SPX holds 7600 heading into the Nov 3 midterms. Bulls can look for a push towards 7800 by mid-November, with a breakout to new ATHs opening the door towards 8000-8100. The biggest clue will be continued strength in market leaders $NBIS $SNDK $MU $DELL $AMD. As long as these names continue printing higher lows and outperforming the broader market, bulls remain in control.

Bearish Scenario: $SPX loses 7600 heading into Nov 3, opening the door for a deeper pullback towards 7400-7500. Rather than blindly buying the dip, look for aggressive selling, rising fear, and signs of capitulation as price approaches support. The biggest clue will be relative strength in market leaders. If $DELL $AMD $MU $SNDK $NBIS hold their key levels while $SPX makes new lows, it could signal that selling pressure is exhausting and a bottom is forming.

Whatever happens, give the market time to work itself out. You don’t need to catch the exact bottom to capitalize on the next move.
