Ace in the Hole - Edition #65

Your Secret Weapon to Beat The Market

Happy Monday Traders!

I hope you all had a great weekend and are excited for a new week ahead!

Plenty of economic data this week to keep us busy and hopefully bring us some fun trades.

Let’s dive in.

Market Thoughts

We have seen a solid pullback in the markets with $QQQ getting a 10% correction. I have played way more shorts than longs lately and I’m personally enjoying it.

There is so much volatility that the moves I look for play you very quickly and look very clean in this environment.

When volatility is low it is good for the market going higher, but drains volatility which makes it a very hard environment to day trade in.

Overall continuing to play day by day and not get too wrapped up with what’s happening with the markets and the new administration and just take it all as opportunity in front of us.

Short-Term Setups This Week:

$NQ Weekly

The only setup I’m putting on the newsletter is $NQ.

We’ve had some good downside moves recently and I do think we can go lower, but I’d like to see a rebalance to this bearish inefficiency first.

The market moves for 4 reasons.

Rebalancing to equillibrium, rebalancing to inefficiencies, hunting liquidity, or generating liquidity.

In this case I think we need to bounce to rebalance to this bearish inefficiency before going lower.

50% retracement of the entire weekly range is $21,043.
