The Best Time to Buy the Dip
Does waiting for a deeper dip actually improve your odds? I tested 120,449 long touches across 648 stocks from September 2024 through September 2026 to see what happened when price reached the Volatility Box L2 and L3 levels. The biggest difference wasn’t how deep the dip went. It was what the broader market had done the day before. After SPY closed Red or Orange on Market Pulse, buying the L3 level worked 60.3% of the time. After a Green or Yellow day, that dropped to 51.9%. That one filter also more than doubled the average profit per trade. ✅ See the Market Pulse colors and Volatility Box levels: https://volatilitybox.com/market-pulse/ In the video, I break down where L2 and L3 sit inside the clouds, whether it makes sense to wait for L3 instead of buying L2, and how far these trades typically move against you before eventually working. One thing to know: these results assume the trade was held through the third close with no stop loss. This is historical backtested data, not a forecast of future results.

Gartner just bought back 3.6 million of its own shares at $148.93. A year ago it was paying $417.99.

How I Turn Pre-Market News Into A Trade
On Tuesday, September 22, the pre-market headlines said the Strait of Hormuz could reopen and the Saudi pipeline was back on. In this video, I walk through how that news gave me a short bias on oil stocks, and how I used the Volatility Box to find the entry on XLE. ✅ Get Volatility Box levels on the stocks you trade: https://www.volatilitybox.com We start with the news and why it matters. When more oil is on the way, the war premium comes out of the price, and oil companies like Exxon and Chevron earn less. The 5-day chart on XLE was already down 7.1% from the September 15 high, so the news and the trend agreed. Then oil rallied after Trump's UN speech, and XLE ran up into the upper Volatility Box zone at 8:55 AM PT. A rally against the news and against the trend is where I want to sell. You'll see the Edge Signal, the 1-2 punch momentum cross, the trend switch on the 2-minute chart, and the exact levels: short $62.54, stop $62.76, target $62.32. The target hit at 10:50, in the same 5 minutes that oil stocks fell and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq went up. What's covered: → The headlines that pointed to more oil supply → How a war premium works, in plain English → Reading the 5-day trend on XLE → The rally into the upper VB zone, and the signals that confirmed the short → The trade levels, and how the day played out ----------------------------------------------------------- ⏱️ Video timestamps: 0:00 - The Pre-Market Headlines 1:30 - How the News Gave Us a Short Bias 3:09 - Rally into Volatility Box 4:29 - Entry ----------------------------------------------------------- ✅ Download the Futures Volatility Box here: https://www.tosindicators.com/volatility-box ✅ Download the Stock Volatility Box here: https://www.volatilitybox.com ✅ Find the Best Squeezes here: https://www.squeezesetups.com For education only.

Mortgage Rates Follow This, Not The Fed #federalreserve #trading #interestrates
Since 2000, monthly changes in the 30-year mortgage line up with the 10-year Treasury at 0.73, where 1.0 would be perfect lockstep. Against the fed funds rate, the one the Fed actually sets: 0.01. Basically no relationship at all. A 30-year mortgage almost never lasts 30 years, so investors price it like a 10-year bond. The gap has averaged about 1.8 points since 1971, which means you can pull up the 10-year and do the arithmetic yourself. Full breakdown in the long video. #mortgagerates #10yeartreasury #housingmarket
Does the Fed Rate Hike Affect Your Mortgage? #federalreserve #trading #interestrates
This just happened again, in reverse. On September 16 the Fed raised its target range to 3.75% to 4.00%, and the 10-year Treasury went the other way, from 5.01% down to 4.94% the next day. Which is the same thing that happened in 2024, running the other direction. In September 2024 the Fed started cutting and by December had cut a full percentage point. Over those same months the average 30-year mortgage went from 6.2% to 7.04%, the 10-year Treasury rose 1.14 points, and TLT fell about 15%. The numbers are right. The problem is the phrase the Fed sets interest rates. It sets one rate, the overnight rate banks charge each other. Everything else is priced by people buying and selling bonds every day. Full breakdown in the long video. #federalreserve #mortgagerates #interestrates
Interest Rates Explained in 90 Seconds #trading #stockmarket
Say I ask to borrow $100 and pay you back exactly $100 a year later. Would you take that deal? You would say no, and the reasons you would say no are the entire concept of an interest rate. 1. Waiting 2. Inflation 3. Risk. Add those three together and you have every interest rate that exists, including your mortgage, Treasury yields and whatever the Fed does next. Watch the full video for a complete breakdown on interest rates! #interestrates #investing #finance #personalfinance #thinkorswim
Interest Rates Explained for Traders
In this video, I break down how the interest rate market really works, what the Federal Reserve controls, what the market controls, and why those two can move in opposite directions. For example, the Fed cut rates by a full percentage point in late 2024. At the same time, the 10-year Treasury yield rose, mortgage rates went higher, and TLT fell about 15%. So what was actually happening? We’ll also look at how to read Fed expectations using futures and the 2-year Treasury, how the yield curve works, and what changing rates mean for bonds, gold, stocks, and options. The goal is to make Fed meetings and interest-rate moves easier to interpret from a trader’s perspective.

I Tested the Squeeze Histogram on 87,000+ Signals
In this study, I tested whether the Squeeze histogram can predict which way a squeeze will fire. I looked at every daily squeeze across 649 stocks and ETFs from 2004 to 2026... 87,470 squeezes in total. ✅ Run this on the stocks you trade: https://squeezesetups.com The histogram did have some predictive value, but only around the day the squeeze fired. When I read the histogram on the last red dot, it correctly predicted the direction of the fire day 69% of the time. The 20-day moving average did even better at 75%. But the results changed once I measured from the green dot — the point where most traders would actually enter. Across 16 different signals, every result landed between 49% and 51% over the following 10 days. In other words, there wasn't much evidence of a directional edge after the squeeze had already fired. The direction of the fire day itself also didn't predict what happened next. When a squeeze fired up, the stock was higher 10 days later only 49.5% of the time. The main takeaway is that the useful information appears to be concentrated around the fire day itself. If you're trying to use the squeeze to anticipate direction, timing matters more than I expected.

The “Safe” ORB Stop Loss That Lost $453,000
I tested 6,013 opening range breakout trades across SPY, QQQ, DIA and IWM over the last two years – and one tiny change completely altered the results. In this video, I break down exactly what happened, why the results look more like a “cliff” than a gradual curve, and what this tells us about placing stops inside normal market noise. We’ll also test several common ideas traders use to improve opening range breakouts – including different indexes, different opening-range timeframes, range width and false-breakout filters – to see whether any of them actually create a meaningful edge.

Why This S&P Futures Setup Worked But The Dow Failed
Today’s futures session gave us two very different volatility events in the S&P 500 and Dow Jones. In this video, I break down both setups step by step using the Futures Volatility Box, including why the S&P setup was more straightforward, why the Dow became much more difficult, and how the changing volatility regime affected which model made sense. The S&P 500 setup came later in the day and produced a clean long entry after price breached the lower Volatility Box model and confirmed with the edge signal. That trade reached its first target and ultimately completed both T1 and T2 for roughly 7.25 points. The Dow was very different. Early in the session, price breached the Scalper Volatility Box, then continued through the stop. That forced a shift to the Aggressive model, and eventually even the Doomsday Aggressive model as volatility kept expanding. This is a good example of why the same basic setup can behave very differently depending on the volatility regime.

This S&P 500 Futures Setup Ran 14+ Points
Today’s S&P 500 futures trade was the standout setup across the four major index markets. In this video, I break down the S&P 500, Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and Russell futures using the Futures Volatility Box to show how the first hour of trading can help determine which volatility model to use for the rest of the session. Three of the four markets pointed toward lower-volatility Scalper setups, while Nasdaq was the clear outlier and required the Aggressive model. The best opportunity came later in the S&P 500, where a valid long setup hit its first target and continued more than 14 points toward T2. I also break down losing trades in the Dow and Russell, why they were still valid setups, and what those stop-outs told us about changing market conditions.

The Consumer Discretionary Stock I’m Buying Right Now
Lowe’s is the consumer discretionary stock standing out to me right now. While XLY and several of its top holdings have messy charts, Lowe’s is trading near the lower end of its range inside a key Fibonacci support zone around $200 - $212. Momentum is starting to improve, and I’ve begun building a position with a potential move back toward previous highs in mind.

How to Find Trades When the Market Goes Nowhere
SPY closed 1% below its record, with today’s range at half of normal. High prices, low volatility -- a setup I like for potential expansion. Top down, SPY and DIA are accelerating while QQQ and IWM are still accumulating, so the long side ranks higher. Seven sectors favor longs: communication services, energy, industrials, real estate, materials, technology, and healthcare. Staples, utilities, and discretionary are weakening. Ten setups made the list: six long, four short. Amazon and AVAV triggered, with Amazon the cleaner trade. Its range was 1.3% versus a 2.6% norm, another sign of compression. If you’re short on time, rank the setups and take the best ones. If not, use the filters to narrow the list further.

This 1969 Company Is The Reason AI Chips Exist
Photronics fell 36% in a single session on May 28 and lost more than 1.1 billion dollars of market cap. I started a position at 32.08 today, and in this video I walk through exactly why. First, what the company actually does. Photronics makes photomasks, which you can think of as a stencil for a chip. You shine light through the plate and the circuit pattern gets etched into the silicon underneath. The important part is that mask demand tracks how many new chip designs get released, not how many chips get manufactured. That makes this a bet on innovation rather than on volume. I also briefly cover the red herring, which is the shareholder class action filed in July over the IC photomask demand disclosures.

How to Automate Your Entries in ThinkOrSwim (Real $JNJ Trade)
Staring at charts waiting for a signal is the worst part of trading. In this walkthrough I show you how to hand that job to ThinkOrSwim, so the platform only takes the trade when your technical trigger actually fires. You will see the full build inside the Order Rules panel: setting the symbol, choosing method study, pasting the thinkScript into the editor, adding a price condition to the code, setting a limit offset off the bid, and the cancel time. Then we let it run and watch the first order fill at 255.71 on its own.

Why I'm Buying This Stock at 52-Week Lows
Archer Aviation (ACHR) is down about 40% this year and sitting near its 50% retracement, right into earnings Monday after the close. In this video I walk through the technical setup that put it on my radar and lay out the full bull thesis. The piece I think gets overlooked is the UAE. Archer's Midnight aircraft was moved into a Restricted Type Certificate program with the GCAA, the UAE's version of the FAA, which means limited commercial operations can start before full FAA certification is done. Archer is the first eVTOL company on that track, with Abu Dhabi Aviation as the launch partner. I also cover the defense angle through the Anduril partnership (Thunder and Halo), where the platform's revenue path does not depend on FAA passenger certification, where the U.S. FAA process actually stands (Means of Compliance accepted, Phase 3 cleared), and how the valuation compares to Joby at roughly 7x sales versus 15x, all with earnings just days away.
