Do you like trading tight setups? I just built the simplest 'tight chart' screener in @Deepvue Basic, liquid names in uptrends. K.I.S.S.

Cyber leads the way, but careful trusting the bounce here. Here’s why. 👉tinyurl.com/hpsa2kmf - Indexes and most of tech remain below the MAs…Warning! ⚠️ - $OKTA enters the port, still heavily in cash - Are we about to see a ton of short setups as AI names hit the MA’s? - Software and cyber the CLEAR leadership in tech - Staying light on my feet, and ready to pivot - Earnings, FOMC, Midterms: Get your popcorn ready!

Every single market cycle, I want to make sure that I am refining or improving something in my process. The last couple of months have confirmed with even more confidence just how important it is to track the leaders. I have known this and been implementing this for sometime but it truly never seems to let me down. When trouble hits the leading stocks, that is typically when the party is over at least for a little bit.
I continue to learn that watching the elite leaders is the BEST indicator for my process. I made a note to watch $DELL $HPE very closely because they would be very telling… When trouble starts in the best of the best names, it becomes apparent I am not going to make money anywhere else.

$ZETA is a nice tight chart. Earnings 8 days though. Earnings definitely getting in the way of some nice setups!

The perfect type of bounce looks to brewing in the AI names... To set up a ton of short opportunities it seems 🤷‍♂️

I tried some $NTAP today but didn't get the cushion needed to hold overnight. Took it off just above cost.

$OKTA (new long) The strength in cyber remains impressive, $OKTA was my horse today. Got long on the 5-min ORB. We’ll see if cybers are the new leaders or the next dominos to fall! 👉whop.com/smart-stocks-discor…

Nice to see $QQQ green, but it couldn’t even close above the 5SMA. Lots of work required here.

You can’t control the outcome of any trade, but you can control your losses by maintaining a fixed % of equity at risk — a key to long-term trading success, as demonstrated over 1,000 trades jfsrev.substack.com/i/171965…
Replying to @jfsrev
this is the reason why you need to try to control your losses less than -1R losses via 3 stop strategy based on 33% stops per distance from your ultimate stop level. This big data principle will traject the parabolic effect on your equity curve at a much faster rate. I have not even touched on the magical effect of a 50R winner or a sequential 3-8R winner on the growth of your dollar risk and equity curve. You can't control the outcome of any trade, but you definitely can control your losses.

The AI stocks continue to be far from my focus. I need to see contraction, higher lows, moving average reclaims. As I run my afternoon screening, nothing has changed. Downtrends, whilst software and cyber looks great. Not to mention indexes rejecting MAs.
A very nice 'bounce day' for the AI trade, but almost every stock on my watchlist in these groups has a declining 10 and 21EMA to deal with above, or a 50/200SMA.

Definitely the biggest positive in today's session. On the wrong day, Elon's comments could have cracked the whole AI trade, let alone neoclouds. For now, superb response to a nasty headline. Yes, charts are still beaten up, but possibly a step in the right direction here 🤷‍♂️
Semis rallying as Elon warns neocloud financing is drying up feels like a news failure to me. That kind of action might put a 2019-style early year-end rally back on the table.

$SPY rejects the 50, $QQQ rejects the 5SMA, $IWM rejects the 200-day. A positive session, but today’s highs nice levels of interest going forward.

Two really nice setups in $MSFT $PLTR, but earnings pretty close. Always check your dates!

Good to see bulls stepping up today in $SMH
$SMH is just about at the 200-day for the first time since May 2025. How will we react this time? Rally, or rollover?
