I don’t trade for Lambos, watches, or flashy vacations.

I trade for freedom 🕘 time on my terms.

To go where I want with my family,
to dedicate myself fully to athletics,
and to sharpen my edge in business and self.

🚨 Post-NFP Playbook 🚨
SPY ripped back to the highs today → bulls in control.
Tomorrow’s jobs data = catalyst.
Here’s my process-driven watchlist for 5 tickers.
Levels → Thesis → Trade Plan 👇

📈 Market Context
SPY at highs = bullish backdrop
First 30–60 mins post-NFP = noise
Best moves = 2nd wave, once liquidity shows direction

@EliteLEEK @EliteOptions2 All flex 💪

$AVGO finally ripped our gap level…after hours.
306 → 320 in minutes, untradeable intraday.

📌 Lesson: not every setup pays when you expect it.
Either swing small overnight or accept that some moves will run without you.

•Hold >311 → 320/325
•Fail <311 → 306 gap fill

📌 If you don’t identify the opening type, you’ll trade blind.
•Drive → momentum play
•Test Drive → trap setup
•Rejection Reverse → fade
•Auction → wait for breakout

Know the open → trade the open.

Most traders lose money in the first 30 minutes.
Why? They don’t know what type of open they’re in.
Here’s a breakdown of the 4 main opening types you must master 🧵

[Ariel Long 🏞️ @glacierptcap]

⚖️ Open Auction = chop, no conviction.
•Price oscillates around VWAP / prior close.
•Volume is balanced, no initiative buyers/sellers.
•Best play: stay patient, trade edges of range only.

Final update: $SPY power hour move 🚀

0DTE calls ran +200% off the PWR HR ORB.
•Long entries: 647.84 at 12:08 & 12:30 PST
•Expansion finally hit after hours of compression
•Targeting 649.7+ into close

📌 PWR HR ORB. Best to size in when volatility expands not in grind

$SPY breaking higher 🔥
•Cleared 646.6 → now pushing 647+
•Next resistance: 649.1 → 649.8 (recent high)
•Support now sits back at 646.0–646.5

Momentum favoring bulls as long as 646 holds. Eyes on 649 test.

SPY & QQQ Morning Map
•Both parked just under daily call triggers (SPY 645 / QQQ 571.6).
•Weekly bias = bearish, multiday skew = short.
•Above = room for 647–649 (SPY) / 576 (QQQ).
•Fail = 640.5 (SPY) / 568.5 (QQQ).

Big move comes on a clean level break + volume.
