In this video, I discuss the idea of putting on a Hedge Trade in SPX and SPY. This is meant to be a small risk high reward trade that acts as insurance for your account if the market does start to sell off strongly. I talk about the risk vs. reward aspect in the video, as well as the trade ideas for this bearish hedge.
Today I am taking a look at AKAM for a bullish move to the upside. Not only is it showing a Daily and Monthly Squeeze, but it also is showing Bullish Signals on my Dynamic Duo of indicators, which I will be teaching about in the class. The Signal followed through beautifully on a Daily Chart and is printing on the Weekly Time Frame. In this video, I discuss several different trade ideas to consider.

The NQ is still the relative outperformer among the indices. But with FB, GOOGL, GOOG selling off with advertising worries, what are the ways to trade around this uncertainty? I explain how I do just that in this video.
Today I wanted to discuss MSFT on the Weekly Time Frame. If MSFT can maintain holding above 197/200 price level as support going into tomorrow’s close, we could be setting up for a very strong bullish signal. In the video I discuss this signal as well as several different trade ideas you could consider taking based on this signal.
Let’s discuss AMZN for a potential trade idea into the holiday week. I walk through the charts and talk about how I like the overall trend, as well as discuss an Unbalanced Put Butterfly as a trade idea into next week.

The market movement and news certainly did not look like a bullish day, but we know range breaks can tell us a lot. Here’s how we traded today’s clearing ranges in ES, YM, and RTY, and why I left the NQ alone.
