Today in Focus: Patience

Before today's report

I've published my complete sell system as a free, standalone guide.

It's the full rule-based framework I use to manage exits: when to trim, when to hold, and when a trade is over, with worked examples across every timeframe from nanocap parabolics to multi-year breakouts. The exit is the part most traders get wrong, and this is the discipline that takes the emotion out of it.

It's the first post on my new Substack, Stocks in Play. Free to read here:

If you find it useful, a like or restack on the post genuinely helps it reach more traders.

Now, on to today's stocks in play.

Situational Awareness:

Market Condition: Pullback and Rotation

Commentary: Significant gap down in indices this morning. I think we might rally again after the first hours but I’m not seeing any catalyst I’m excited about and I’m happy to just sit today. We’re gapping down below the 10EMA on the indices. That must be respected for my style. No need to push here at all. I’m in drawdown from highs and nothing suggests to me that doing more here is going to reverse that.

No newsletters next week (I will publish at the weekend). I will be away with my family all week and plan to just manage existing positions unless I see a big catalyst hit the market.

Have a great weekend!
