Merchants,
Proper earlier than I talk about my high concepts for the week, I needed to briefly point out an necessary statement. An elevated VIX, as we presently have, is extraordinarily completely different from a subdued VIX.
When the volatility index is buying and selling at elevated ranges, swing trades change into extra dangerous as vital in a single day directional gaps change into seemingly. Move2Move kind buying and selling, together with buying and selling volatility merchandise and index ETF’s offers incredible alternatives every day.
General, the anticipation of a recession has now impacted flows and sentiment with shares, together with the next VIX, which places the general market and sectors in play versus particular person shares.
So, with a move2move focus and a dealer’s market mindset in thoughts, listed here are my focuses for the upcoming week:
Move2Move Bounce in SOXL
Virtually 60% off from its excessive in a matter of weeks and a reduction bounce in SOXL is turning into more and more seemingly and enticing from a threat: reward perspective for me. For me, it has change into extremely stretched, with an enlargement from important SMA’s and better timeframe capitulation to the draw back. As talked about, this isn’t a swing tape, so I’ll search for day trades. The one swing positions I’ll take are if the commerce works out effectively and closes close to the excessive, then I’ll take a small piece in a single day for a niche continuation.

Right here’s my plan:
The A+ model of the setup could be if the market gapped decrease on Monday and SOXL was down one other 5 – 10% +, establishing an intraday washout lengthy reversal sample. In that case, I might be intently watching worth motion for indicators of a backside, trying to enter lengthy on the precise facet of V, i.e., as soon as the inventory marks a LOD – reclaims its intraday VWAP, and/or makes a big increased low, with quantity to again it up. I’ll be buying and selling this on a diminished timeframe as it’s not a swing place, utilizing increased lows as a path and lowering my place on increased highs and extensions from its intraday VWAP.
My plan in TQQQ—triple-levered QQQ ETF—is similar to the plan in SOXL. Like my plan in SOXL, a niche down or additional weak point within the general market at this stage within the down transfer would enhance the expectation of the commerce and general threat: reward for me.
Now, together with the final thesis and concept for the concepts talked about above, very comparable plans will be laid out for a number of shares which have prolonged to the draw back within the quick time period. So, in that regard, I’ve a rising checklist of names that I’m monitoring for comparable type strikes to the plan talked about above. For instance, MSFT is one other identify I’m intently monitoring for a reduction bounce after it’s bought off nearly 13% from its excessive in just a few weeks, buying and selling at its lowest RSI since 2022. Once more, ideally, there will likely be additional draw back and washout beneath its 200-day SMA.

Along with monitoring a number of sectors and key indexes, my principal deal with Monday and doubtless all week, together with the general market (SPY), tech (QQQ), and SOXL, will likely be VXX – the ETN that tracks the VIX short-term futures.

An elevated VIX creates insanely nice move-to-move momentum scalping and reversion scalping alternatives. In these environments, I excel in quickly shifting gears from a swing mindset to a move-to-move mindset, and the VXX is a good car for it. So, I’ll intently watch VIX futures, the VXX worth motion and chart, and the general marketplace for cash-flowing scalping alternatives intraday.
Now, this can be a completely different type and mindset from what I’ve beforehand mentioned, with crucial changes being made, so I’ll talk about this in larger element within the upcoming Inside Entry assembly with you on Thursday.
