The scenario laid out last night gave a good swing entry in $SPY and $QQQ today

buyers are back in control of the intermediate-term trend, which puts them in alignment with longer-term trends

my swing stops are below today's low

buy strength after the dip
⚓️VWAP

Support & Resistance are OFTEN found at
✅ key moving averages
✅ prior consolidation zones
✅ key ⚓️VWAPs
✅ Fibonacci levels
etc..

But NOTHING works all the time, risk mgt is job #1

There are no certainties, don't listen to ppl who say what WILL happen, NO ONE knows!

$AFRM ...

Feels like another squeeze attempt brewing in this highly shorted stock(20% short interest). Held above Friday's pullback lows and making an INSIDE DAY candle.

Targets: $22

Study the charts below closely!

This simple yet extremely effective process is the core of my trading and stock scanning strategy and what I strive to teach/share.

PEG candles, followed by consistent ACCUMULATION VOLUME patterns are always going to be stocks of High Interest!

Given that $NVDA made new all time highs in After-hours today...

At this point, there's now a good chance for $AMD of reaching the late 2021 highs. The recent volume patterns have been quite telling...
