Let's start with RDW, since mentioning it, the stock is up about 19% from our entry. I'm still looking for a 6-12 month expansion on this ticker. 8 is a potential resistance level, and a big one. And than its 10 after that. SPY is looking healthy. SPY is in a territory where market makers are forced to push this higher. As of now, while SPY is above 682, its buy the dip type of trade. What dips are you buying?

Today I bought options a 0 dte iron condor 687/686 call 679/678 put for another conservative win. Tomorrow I’ll be extra cautious, If Powell says anything that has a vibe of saying anything negative towards lowering interest rates, the market will sell off.

I’m giving this a good Harvard try this week. I bought options 0 dte under max pain, 682/681 vertical for a conservative win.

Last night around 9 p.m., I let everyone know I was getting into five micro ES contracts. I’m not an expert in futures yet. Using Gextron, I spotted a major support level that aligned perfectly with SPY hitting 670 overnight. that was my entry. The way I traded it was really simple: ✅ Play off the strongest Gextron support zone ✅ Wait for the bounce confirmation ✅ Manage risk and ride the move We ended up catching a 30-point move to the upside overnight and closed it around 5 a.m. If you don’t know how much that is — a 30-point move on 5 micro ES contracts equals roughly $700 in profit. The way u trade futures is by watching SPY and SPX option premiums even when I’m trading futures. They move in sync, and the option premiums often reveal where price will react. So even though I’m still testing and getting more comfortable with futures, it’s essentially the same process: Gextron gives me the leverage I need to pinpoint entries, price targets, and key support/resistance levels without guessing. Simple setup. Clean levels. Solid execution.

Question for the group about general portfolio management. How do you think about trading both Calls and Puts in terms of balance. Are you fine with a portfolio full of Calls? Or do you think he need to try to maintain a 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, etc Call/Put ratio? I am very Call heavy and feel nervous about being Long the entire portfolio. But, I find it quite difficult to find good Put opportunities in this bull market. Curious if those who have been trading for years could share some insight. Thanks all.
