Capturing Opportunity in a Muted Market
Stocks Slip as Tariff Threats and Fed Uncertainty Weigh on Sentiment - Key Levels for Next Week
The stock market concluded the week on a soft note, leaving major benchmarks lower as investors weighed solid economic data against renewed policy uncertainties. The S&P 500 dipped -0.4% and the Nasdaq 100 fell -0.9%, while Small-caps rallied to secure a 2.2% advance. Overall volume remained subdued, reflecting a market in search of fresh catalysts.
This price action mirrors what we saw in November and December 2025: indecisive days, dips that are quickly bought, and rallies that evaporate just as fast. Since then, I have emphasized the power of individual names during times of consolidation. The high-probability setups posted last week confirmed the value of this approach.
The Advantage of a Broad Watchlist: My analysis covers Indices, Metals, Futures, Megacaps, ETFs, and Cryptocurrencies with 30 securities (list below) and some leveraged ETFs. The advantage of this broad (yet trackable) list is the ability to time reversals for your favorite stocks (like TSLA or NVDA) while spotting stronger setups brewing elsewhere. This gives you the information needed to make informed rotations.
Neutrality is Key: We remain market and sector neutral, we follow the charts, not the hype. Last week, in the middle of choppy conditions, the technical data favored Crypto, so I emphasized the bullish case for Ethereum and Bitcoin, alongside bullish setups for COST and AVGO. On the bearish side, LLY was signaling a pullback, which materialized exactly as expected.
For subscribers monitoring specific names, we also anticipated the moves for WMT (bullish), JPM (bearish) and PLTR (bearish). Every setup provides a clear roadmap: actionable insights, price targets, and invalidation levels to manage risk.
We maintain a cumulative accuracy rate of 75%. This publication is built on facts, numbers, clean charts, and straight to the point guidance.

On Wednesday I posted educational content about the anatomy of a winning trade, this edition helps you navigate the setups in a friendly way with updated charts for the key securities for the week. Use the S/R levels to navigate momentum or to lock gains, AVGO was a real life example of how to lock gains once the target is reached. Get access here:

This publication consistently analyzes the heavyweights below because they are the engines of the market.
