Momentum everywhere. You didn’t have to think.

This one?

Nobody’s chasing it.

I almost skipped it.

It didn’t feel exciting enough to matter, but that’s usually the signal.

The trades that feel boring are the ones that work.

Then I zoomed out and this one stood out.

It’s not a headline stock.

It’s sitting in a sector most people aren’t even watching right now, but the structure is clean.

The rotation is starting.

And the risk/reward is actually there—if you’re willing to take a trade that doesn’t feel exciting.

This is the kind of setup most people miss.

Here’s the setup →

I hope you had an amazing week!

In case you missed it, you can see last week’s top play of the week here →

A quick highlight from last week →

Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. was given as a trade idea in last Sunday’s Market Playbook. Price completed its move to its 200-day SMA and tagged an extreme-high RSI reading. It’s time to lock in profits here. Congratulations to those of you in the KDP trade.

Let’s dig into last week’s market recap and the playbook for the week ahead →

The markets were flying last week!!

The Nasdaq (QQQ) and the S&P 500 (SPY) hit new record highs again and they’re both still trading at extreme-high RSI readings here.

The SPY blew through its $710 psychological level and the QQQ blew through its $650 psychological level.

The Dow Jones (DIA) was the lagging index and has been moving sideways forming a consolidation zone here.

The uptrend momentum in Bitcoin (BTC) continues and price steadily climbs higher below its 200-day SMA.

Oil (USO) is going for a new breakout here. Priced is back above its 20-day SMA and reclaimed its prior consolidation zone.

A breakout may be underway here in Bonds (TLT) as well. Price is trading right along its 200-day SMA, however, price closed just above its 20-day SMA signaling a breakout may be underway here.

Gold (GLD) is coming back into its accumulation zone. The breakout has lost its steam and price closed below its 20-day SMA on Friday.

Crude oil ($BRENT) is in a breakout along with Oil (USO). $BRENT is up 17% and USO popped over 10% last week!

The Nasdaq (QQQ) was the top performing index of the Big 3, while the Dow Jones (DIA) was the worst.

I. THE MARKET VITALS (Best to Worst)👩🏻‍⚕️📊

Here’s how the 7 major asset classes ranked this week:

1. The Nasdaq-100

2. The S&P 500

3. The Dow Jones 30

4. Bitcoin ($BTCUSD)

5. Oil

6. 20 Year Bonds Treasury ETF

7. Gold

♥️Market Pulse: 4/7

• 4/7 assets are up.

• The QQQ, SPY, BTC, and USO are up.

• DIA, GLD, and TLT are down.

II. SECTOR ROTATION (11 SPDR S&P 500 Sectors)👩🏻‍⚕️🔄

Above is the 5-day performance across all 11 sectors.

Technology was the top performing sector of the S&P 500 , while Health Care was the worst.

The top three performing sectors were Technology (XLK), Energy (XLE), and Consumer Staples (XLP).

All three sectors are trading above their 200-day SMA and Technology (XLK) is banging an extreme-high RSI reading.

Energy (XLE) is an accumulation zone above its 200-day SMA giving us potential trade setups this week.

The worst three performing sectors were Health Care (XLV), Communication Services (XLC), and Financials (XLF).

Communication Services (XLC) is trading in a breakout buy zone. I’m watching for any price weakness or RSI weakness for potential internet plays.

The uptrend in Financials (XLF) lost its momentum and is trading back below its 200-day SMA.

9 sectors are trading above their 200-day SMA now except Financials (XLF) and Health Care (XLV), which may be entering a decline here and closed below its 200-day SMA, which is typically bearish.

III. IMPORTANT SECTORS & ETFs 👩🏻‍⚕️🔍

Beyond the main sectors, here’s what stood out this week:

iShares Semiconductors ETF popped over 11% on the week and is banging an extreme-high RSI reading here along with other semiconductor stocks like NVDA, INTC, AMD, QCOM, and POET.

The Russell 2000 Index reached a new all-time high again, but is no longer trading an extreme-high RSI reading and put in a doji on Friday signaling a top may be in here.

The IWM outperformed the DIA last week.

Ark Innovation ETF lost its momentum and is trading back below its 200-day SMA.

Regional Banks didn’t break through its zone of consolidation above its 200-day SMA. Price closed below its 5-day EMA and may begin to rollover here.

S&P Oil & Gas popped over 5% on the week. Price ended up holding here and building out a zone of accumulation giving us potential trade setups this week.

Software stocks pulled back a bit below below its 200-day SMA. The RSI is only 54, which gives a trade idea on any price weakness and potential setups in software stock laggards.

IV: WHAT ASSETS & SECTORS I’M WATCHING 👩🏻‍⚕️🎯

Here’s what I’m focused on next week:

• Oil (USO): Oil bounced back and finished the week up over 17% and reclaimed its prior consolidation zone.

  • I’m watching oil for trade setups this week.

• Dow Jones (DIA): Will price keep climbing here and reach an extreme-high RSI reading?

• The S&P 500 & The Nasdaq (SPY & QQQ): Both are trading at extreme-high RSI readings here. Use caution and don’t FOMO into any positions.

  • Lock in profits and leave some to run!

• The Russell 2000 Index (IWM) already banged an extreme-high RSI reading, but put in a doji here so I’m watching to see if a reversal is underway or if price will continue going sideways or climb higher here.

Not casually—this has always been part of my identity.

My dad was a shoe designer when I was growing up in the 90s.

So for me, this wasn’t just about shoes.

It was about:

• Design.

• Branding.

• Culture.

• Self-expression.

• Making a statement.

Nike wasn’t just something I wore.

It was something I grew up around.

And even now, I still wear Nike almost every day.

So today, when I had something to celebrate…

I did what I’ve always done.

I went to buy a new pair of shoes and not just any pair of shoes, Jordans.

I walked into the store fully prepared to spend over $200.

There was a pair of hot pink retro Jordans I had my eye on.

That was the plan, but then something caught my attention.

A different pair.

Air Jordan 1 mids.

• Same brand.

• Same identity.

• Same cultural weight.

• Same movement.

Marked down to $80.

And I paused because nothing about Nike had changed.

• The quality didn’t change.

• The brand didn’t change.

• The demand didn’t disappear.

• The drip didn’t disappear.

Only the price did.

So I bought them.

And walking out of the store, I had the same thought I’ve been having all week looking at the charts:

Nike is trading the same way.

Most people stop at the story.

I use it to find the trade.

I don’t just look for value on a chart.

I look for it in real life too.

Here’s what you’ll get in today’s full breakdown:

• ✅ Complete fundamental analysis on this week’s top pick.

• ✅ Technical setup with specific price levels: entry zones, stop loss, and three profit targets.

• ✅ Position sizing strategy for both buy-and-hold and swing trades.

• ✅ Chart markup with a detailed trade breakdown and explanation.

This is the same systematic approach I use in my Sunday Market Playbook—applied to actionable trade ideas you can execute this week.

III. IMPORTANT SECTORS & ETFs 👩🏻‍⚕️🔍

Beyond the main sectors, here’s what stood out this week:

The Russell 2000 Index reached a new all-time high and is trading an extreme-high RSI reading, along with iShares Semiconductors ETF !

Ark Innovation ETF is on the move and blew through its 200-day SMA. It’s trading at a near extreme-high RSI reading and closed with a doji bar on Friday.

S&P Oil & Gas entered a decline and put in a doji bar on Friday below its 20-day SMA.

Software stocks broke out and are on the move below its 200-day SMA.

The RSI is only 58, which presents us with a trade idea on any price weakness or RSI pullback below 50, and potential trade setups in software laggards.

IV: WHAT ASSETS & SECTORS I’M WATCHING 👩🏻‍⚕️🎯

Here’s what I’m focused on next week:

• Oil (USO): Will price stop dropping here or continue lower?

  • Watching for a bottom.

• Dow Jones (DIA) : Will price keep climbing here and reach an extreme-high RSI reading?

• The S&P 500 & The Nasdaq (SPY & QQQ): Both are trading at extreme-high RSI readings here. Use caution and don’t FOMO into any positions.

But here’s the catch: SPY and DIA both closed with dojis. Indecision candles. The market is attempting a breakout, but it’s not committed yet.

Many individual stocks also printed dojis on Wednesday.

Oil corrected 9.7% after hitting an extreme-high RSI reading on Tuesday. Semiconductors broke out and popped over 6%!.

Software broke out yesterday, but failed and closed back below its 20-day SMA.

What this means for us market participants: The market is testing resistance. Some sectors are breaking out. Others are faking out.

This is where you need to be selective and position in quality names that are still undervalued with clear technical setups.

What I’m Watching This Week

I’m laser-focused on an internet stock that’s one of my favorites to both buy and hold and swing trade.

It’s currently trading 28% below fair value.

The Communication Services sector just broke out and reclaimed its 200-day SMA. Two heavyweight internet stock leaders also broke out this week.

That’s confluence. That’s a setup.

This pick offers a clean entry for buy-and-hold investors accumulating shares at a discount and a swing trade setup with a 2x leveraged fund available for aggressive traders looking to capitalize on the sector breakout.

This setup works for both types of investors:

• Buy-and-hold investors: Accumulate shares in a high-growth internet platform at 28% below fair value.

• Swing traders: Clean technical setup with 2x leverage option, defined risk, and multiple profit targets.

I’ve also lined up two backup picks.

A financial sector heavyweight breaking out, but still trading undervalued below its 200-day SMA, and a global healthcare leader in the diabetes/weight-loss space also breaking out.

Both offer buy-and-hold accumulation opportunities and swing trades to the 200-day SMA to add alpha to the portfolio.

Here’s what you’ll get in today’s full breakdown:

• ✅ Complete fundamental analysis on this week’s top internet stock pick—the platform’s business model, user growth, and revenue.

• ✅ Technical setup with specific price levels: entry zones, stop loss, and three profit targets.

• ✅ Position sizing strategy for both buy-and-hold and swing trades.

• ✅ 2 backup picks with full entry/exit plans.

• ✅ The teaching moment: How I positioned in undervalued breakout plays while the market printed dojis and tested resistance.

This is the same systematic approach I use in my Sunday Market Playbook—applied to actionable trade ideas you can execute this week.

V. INDIVIDUAL STOCK HIGHLIGHTS 👩🏻‍⚕️🔥

Everyone’s chasing the commodity run.

I’m doing the opposite.

While the crowd piles into overextended energy plays, I’m hunting for quality names trading at deep discounts.

Names that have been beaten down during the rotation, but are positioned at the forefront of a medical revolution.

What I’m Watching This Week

I’m laser-focused on a gene editing pioneer that’s already brought the world’s first CRISPR-based therapy to market.

This company is using breakthrough technology to cure, not just treat, genetically defined diseases like sickle-cell disease, beta-thalassemia, and potentially Type 1 diabetes.

The stock is trading 54% below its fair value and sitting in an accumulation zone below its 200-day SMA.

This is a world-class biotech company on sale while the market chases shiny objects.

This setup works for both traders and investors:

• Buy-and-hold investors: Accumulate shares in a gene editing leader at a massive discount.

• Swing traders: Clean technical setup with defined risk and 50%+ upside to previous highs.

I’ve also lined up two backup picks!!

A small-cap mean reversion play and a defensive sector rotation that’s benefiting from the Bonds (TLT) breakout. Both offer 3x leveraged options for aggressive traders.

Here’s what you’ll get in today’s full breakdown:

• ✅ Complete fundamental analysis on this week’s top pick; the gene editing company that brought the first CRISPR therapy to market, their pipeline, and why they’re a key player in the future of medicine.

• ✅ Technical setup with specific price levels: entry zones, stop loss, and three profit targets (including fair value at $106).

• ✅ Position sizing strategy for both buy-and-hold and swing trades.

• ✅ 2 backup picks with full entry/exit plans.

• ✅ The teaching moment: How I found value in beaten-down sectors while everyone else chases overextended plays.

This is the same systematic approach I use in my Sunday Market Playbook—applied to actionable trade ideas you can execute this week.

IV: WHAT ASSETS & SECTORS I’M WATCHING 👩🏻‍⚕️🎯

Here’s what I’m focused on next week:

Read more

This week was rough. All three major indices entered stage 4 declines and closed below their 200-day SMAs—a significant bearish shift.

Gold (GLD) got hammered (down 10%+). Precious metals carnage across the board. Bitcoin’s ($BCTUSD) breakout failed.

But here’s the flip side: we now have extreme-low RSI readings everywhere.

Gold (GLD), the Dow Jones (DIA), six SDPR sectors, Home Depot (HD), and more. These are potential reversal opportunities for contrarian investors.

Oil (USO), Crude oil ($BRENT), and SPDR S&P Oil & Gas (XOP) stayed stretched and are still trading at extreme-high RSI readings.

The Energy sector (XLE) led again. And doji bars showed up all over the place on Friday, which are potential indecision signals that could mark turning points.

The key question: Are these extreme-low RSI readings the start of a bottom forming, or is more pain ahead?

Let’s break it down.

I. THE MARKET VITALS (Best to Worst)👩🏻‍⚕️📊

♥️Market Pulse: 4/7 Mixed (Oil Leading, Major Indices Declining)

Here’s how the 7 major asset classes ranked this week:

1. Oil (USO): BEST PERFORMER Still trading at an extreme-high RSI reading. 🚨 Crude oil ($BRENT) also hit an extreme-high RSI, popped 9% over the week. Energy (XLE) continues to lead, but is stretched. Time to lock in profits and leave some to run.

2. Bitcoin ($BTCUSD): ❌ Breakout lost momentum. Closed below its 20-day SMA and came back into its accumulation zone. I’m watching to see if prices hold its accumulation zone here or if it goes lower.

3. 20 Year Bonds Treasury ETF (TLT): Broke accumulation zone, entered possible stage 4 decline. Closed below 200-day SMA ⚠️ — Bearish signal. Bonds breaking down.

4. S&P 500 (SPY): Best of the major 3 indices. Entered a stage 4 decline, closed below 200-day SMA ⚠️ — This is a major shift. The SPY breaking below its 200-day is a red flag.🚩

5. The Nasdaq(QQQ): Entered Stage 4 decline, closed below 200-day SMA ⚠️ — Tech-heavy index breaking down alongside the broader market.

6. Gold (GLD): Fell over 10% on the week! 📉 — Banged an extreme-low RSI reading of 29 🚨, still above 200-day SMA. Precious metals got crushed. Reversal opportunity? Let’s see!

7. The Dow Jones 30 (DIA): WORST PERFORMER. Entered Stage 4 decline, closed below 200-day SMA. Hit an Extreme-low RSI reading of 25. 🚨 — Potential reversal signal if support holds.

📈Secondary Assets to Watch:

• The Russell 2000 Index (IWM): Stage 4 decline just like the major 3 indices, but still holding above 200-day SMA. Not as bad yet, but watch closely.

👩🏻‍💻What This Means:

This is the big story of the week: ALL THREE major indices (SPY, QQQ, DIA) entered stage 4 declines below their 200-day SMAs. This is a major bearish shift.

• Oil (USO) still stretched (at an extreme-high RSI: lock in profits).

• Bitcoin (BTC failed its breakout.

• Bonds (TLT) breaking down.

• Gold crushed (GLD) (extreme-low RSI — opportunity?).

But here’s where it gets interesting: The Dow hit extreme-low RSI of 25. Gold (GLD) at 29. These are reversal signals if support holds.

II. SECTOR ROTATION (11 SPDR S&P 500 Sectors)👩🏻‍⚕️🔄

But the big story? Six sectors hit extreme-low RSI readings.

Defensive sectors getting hammered (utilities tanked 4%, consumer staples at RSI 29, materials extreme-low RSI).

These are potential reversal setups if support holds.

III. IMPORTANT SECTORS & ETFs 👩🏻‍⚕️🔍

Beyond the main sectors, here’s what stood out this week:

🚨 XOP (Oil & Gas Exploration):

• Up over 5% on the week

• Extreme-high RSI 🚨 — Take profits or tighten stops. Energy is stretched.

📉 Precious Metals Carnage:

This was brutal. Gold (GLD), gold miners (GDX), and silver (SLV) all got crushed:

Gold Miners (GDX):

• Down 14% on the week!

• Entered stage 4 decline.

• Extreme-low RSI 🚨.

• Stopped above 200-day SMA (holding support).

Junior Gold Miners (GDXJ):

⚠️ Growth & Tech ETFs:

Semiconductors (SOXX):

• May be falling out of accumulation zone.

• Still above 200-day SMA, closed green on the week.

• Watch for breakdown or hold.

Growth/Innovation (ARKK):

• Breakout FAILED, back in accumulation zone.

• Watching if price holds anchor point or rolls into decline.

Software (IGV):

• Breakout lost momentum, closed below 20-day SMA.

• Another failed breakout.

💡 Regional Banks (KRE):

• Flat on the week, trading along 200-day SMA.

• RSI 32 (getting into reversal territory).

• Printed doji bar on Friday (potential reversal signal).

👩🏻‍💻The ETF Story:

Oil/energy still running on high extreme RSI. (XOP extreme RSI; make sure to lock in those profits).

Precious metals got absolutely destroyed! Gold miners (GDX) and Silver (SLV) all hit extreme-low RSI readings. These are potential reversal opportunities if the 200-day SMA support holds.

Growth breakouts failing everywhere (ARKK, IGV, BTC). Semis (SOXX) holding, but weakening.

Regional banks (KRE) showing potential reversal signal (doji + RSI 32).

IV: WHAT ASSETS & SECTORS I’M WATCHING 👩🏻‍⚕️🎯

Here’s what I’m focused on heading into next week:

Read more

Oil (USO) ripped over 10%, Bitcoin (BTC) held its breakout momentum, and the major indices (QQQ, SPY, IWM, DIA) showed weakness across the board.

Energy (XLE) hit an extreme-high RSI reading (time to take profits), while both the Dow Jones (DIA) and Regional Banks (KRE) hit extreme-low RSI readings (potential reversal signals).

The key question: Is this rotation sustainable, or are we seeing the early stages of a broader pullback?

Let’s break down what happened.

I. THE MARKET VITALS (Best to Worst)👩🏻‍⚕️📊

♥️Market Pulse: 4/7 Mixed (Energy Leading, Major Indices Weakening)

Here’s how the 7 major asset classes ranked this week:

1. Oil (USO): BEST PERFORMER, popped over 10% and Crude Oil ($BRENT) surged over 11%. Both tagged extreme-high RSI readings! 🚨This is a profit-taking zone. If you caught this rally, lock in gains and leave some to run!!

2. Bitcoin ($BTCUSD): Up over 5% and is still holding its breakout and trading above 20-day SMA. ✅ Strong momentum continuing. Still below 200-day SMA, so not completely out of the woods yet, but crypto bulls have momentum.

3. Gold (GLD): Rolling over into stage 4 decline. Price closed below 20-day SMA twice this week. ⚠️ This presents an opportunity in precious metals on the pullback, especially $copper.

4. The Nasdaq 100 (QQQ): Best of the major 3 indices, but could be rolling over here. Still holding support zone, but may be breaking its accumulation and support zone. Tech bulls need to see this hold.

5. S&P 500 (SPY): Rolled over. Closed above 200-day SMA. Key support is holding for now, but momentum is shifting.

6. The Dow Jones 30 (DIA): Worst of the major indices and is heading towards its 200-day SMA with an extreme-low RSI reading of 28.🚨 This is a potential reversal signal. Watch closely for a bounce or breakdown.

7. 20 Year Bonds Treasury ETF (TLT): WORST PERFORMER. Entered a decline confirmed, closed below 200-day SMA. Bearish signal. Bonds breaking down.

📈Secondary Assets to Watch:

• The Russell 2000 Index (IWM): Rolling over. Only outperformed the Dow Jones (DIA) this week. Small caps weak.

👩🏻‍💻What This Means:

The Market Pulse shows Energy (USO, $BRENT, XLE, XOP) leading while the major indices weaken.

Oil (USO) hit an extreme-high RSI reading (take profits), Bitcoin (BTC) is holding its breakout momentum, but the major indices (SPY, QQQ, IWM, DIA) all fell this week.

The Dow Jones (DIA) hit extreme-low RSI reading, which could be a potential reversal signal!

Gold (GLD) rolling over presents opportunities in precious metals. Bonds (TLT) in stage 4 decline suggest investors rotating OUT of defensive plays.

This is a mixed environment: pockets of strength (oil, crypto), but underlying weakness in the broader market (major indices, bonds).

II. SECTOR ROTATION (11 SPDR S&P 500 Sectors)👩🏻‍⚕️🔄

Top 3 Performers:

1. Energy (XLE): #1 best performer, extreme-high RSI of 70. 🚨

2. Utilities (XLU)

3. Technology (XLK): Possibly rolling over, closed just below 200-day SMA.

Bottom 3 Performers:

9. Industrials (XLI)

10. Consumer Discretionary (XLY): trading below 200-day SMA.

11. Financials (XLF): Worst performer, trading below 200-day SMA.

Key Sector Observations:

🚨 Extreme RSI readings (>70) Profit-Taking Zone:

• Energy (XLE/XOP): RSI of 70. Energy led the week, but it’s stretched. Time to lock in profits and let the rest run.

  • possible profit taking opportunities: XLE, XOP, UCO, GUSH, CVX, OXY, COP

⚠️ Stage 4 Declines Above 200-day SMA:

• Real Estate (XLRE)

• Industrials (XLI)

• Health Care (XLV)

These sectors are declining, but still above their 200-day SMAs. Watch for breakdown or reversal.

⚠️ Stage 4 Decline with Reversal Signal:

• Consumer Staples (XLP): Closed with a doji bar. Potential bottom forming and reversal could be underway.

💡 Watch for Entry:

• Materials (XLB): Not set up yet, but watching for an accumulation zone to enter a double leveraged materials trade in UYM.

❌ Breakout Failure:

• Communications Services (XLC): Breakout failed and now struggling to hold its accumulation zone. Disappointing reversal.

🚨 CRITICAL! Below 200-day SMA (Weakest Sectors):

• Consumer Discretionary (XLY): Rolled over, trading BELOW its 200-day SMA.

• Financials (XLF): Also rolled over, trading BELOW its 200-day SMA.

These two sectors stand out as the weakest. Both in declines at extreme-low RSI readings and below their 200-day SMA.

⚠️ Tech Possibly Rolling Over:

• Technology (XLK): Closed just below its 200-day SMA on Friday, but still holding its zone of support. Watch closely for confirmation.

👩🏻‍💻The Sector Story:

Energy (XLE) led this week, but banged an extreme-high RSI reading so its time to take profits.

Utilities (XLU) holding strong, but underneath, there’s real weakness: Financials (XLF) and Consumer Discretionary (XLY) are both below their 200-day SMAs, which is a bearish signal, but a sign of potential future opportunities.

Technology (XLK) is on the edge, possibly rolling over. Health Care (XLV), Industrials (XLI), and Real Estate (XLRE) all in declines above support. Communication Services (XLC) breakout failed.

The one bright spot? Consumer Staples (XLP) put in a doji bar, which means a potential reversal and bottom is forming.
