🧠 How I’m Trading 5/5

No Guessing

• Bias: CALLS over PUTS (as long as VIX stays under 18)

• Focus: NVDA / TSLA / AMD / PLTR only

• Setup: Break + HOLD or Reclaim → entry

⸻

🎯 Entries

• Taking trades ONLY on confirmation (no guessing)

• Looking for clean breaks of levels listed above

• Using 2–5 min charts for entries, 15 min for confirmation

⸻

💰 Contracts

• 0DTE / 1DTE

• Delta: .60 – .75

• At-the-money or slightly ITM

• Avoid far OTM contracts

⸻

🛑 Risk Management

• Cut losers QUICK (no holding hope)

• Risk: ~20–30% per trade max

• Take profits at key levels (don’t get greedy)

⸻

⏱️ Timing

• 9:30–9:35 → ❌ No trades

• 9:35–10:30 → ✅ Best window

• After 10:30 → ⚠️ Slower / selective

⸻

🧠 Execution Mindset

• One clean trade can make the day

• If it’s not clear → I’m not in it

• I’m reacting to the market, not predicting

⸻

🔥 Simple rule I’m following:

👉 Break up = CALLS

👉 Break down = PUTS

👉 No confirmation = NO TRADE
