Hit & Run Candlesticks – Your Road To Wealth

Current Outlook: 🟢 Bulls in Charge

The Road to Wealth (RTW) trend continues to work beautifully.

In fact, hitting $800 on the SPY is looking like a very real possibility. Keep your eyes on the ball; while minor dips and pullbacks are always part of the game, $800 is the destination.

Think about what this means: a move from the April lows to $800 would represent one of the strongest bull runs we have seen in years. The time is now to roll up your sleeves and get to work. Follow the RTW trend, and trade within the trend.

Mark Your Calendars: June 4th Catalyst

Starting June 4th, it’s going to be easier than ever to trade an account without the burden of needing $25,000, finally freeing you from the restrictions of that frustrating PDT rule. Stay tuned.

Geopolitically, the market seems to be looking past the Iran conflict, even as energy prices fluctuate. As of 7:10 AM this morning, Brent crude is sitting around $102 a barrel.

The Technical Perspective: A Perfect RTW Setup

From a technical standpoint, the SPY has locked in what I call the Perfect Road to Wealth Trend. We have a textbook alignment right now:

• The SPY is trading comfortably over the T-Line.
• The T-Line is riding cleanly above the Trendicator.
• The Trendicator is well above the 34 EMA.

When these indicators line up in this exact order, the trend is truly your friend.

Swing Trading vs. Day Trading

While our core strategy focuses on swing trading, flexibility is key to maximizing profits. Yesterday, we spotted a prime intraday opportunity and day-traded TQQQ, securing a fantastic “2 days, 2 wins” streak.

Many traders ask me about the core difference between these two styles. Honestly? It mostly comes down to your time horizon—simply how long you hold the position. Both have a place in a dynamic market, especially with the upcoming June 4th rule changes that will open the doors for more flexible account management.

By The Numbers: Market Dashboard

Here is how the internal metrics are shaping up after yesterday’s close:

The Bottom Line: The tape doesn’t lie. Trust your indicators, manage your risk, and let’s ride this wave to $800.

My Trading Plan: Rules to Trade By

A successful trading plan doesn’t need to be overly complicated. In fact, the best plans are built on a few simple, repeatable rules. If you want to survive and thrive in these markets, you have to protect your capital, trade with purpose, and let the math do the heavy lifting.

Here is the exact blueprint I use to stay disciplined, focused, and profitable.

1. Trade the Right Environment

• Stick to Proven Patterns: Only execute setups and chart patterns that you know work. If you don’t recognize it, don’t trade it.
• Trade with the Market: Never fight the broader market’s momentum; always align your positions with the dominant market direction.
• Stay Within the Trend: Always trade within an established trend. Even if you are just capturing a quick intraday move, the trend must be your guide.

2. Define the Goal & Protect the Account

• Trade with a Dollar Target: Enter every trade with a specific dollar goal in mind. Know exactly what success looks like before you put capital at risk.
• Overtrading is the Killer: Quality over quantity. Once your setups are done—or your daily goal is met—step away from the screen.

3. The Golden Rule: Every Trade Needs an Exit Strategy

Never put on a position without knowing exactly how you are going to get out. Every single trade requires two distinct exit plans:

🛑 The Damage Control Exit Plan: Your line in the sand. If the trade goes against you, you must have a hard stop or a definitive exit strategy to cut losses quickly and protect your account.

💰 The Profit Exit Plan: Don’t get greedy. Know your target ahead of time so you can confidently lock in gains when the market hits your price.

The Bottom Line

Trading isn’t about guessing; it’s about execution. By following these rules, keeping your discipline, and managing your risk on every single play, you put the odds squarely in your favor. Stick to the plan, trust the process, and let’s get to work.
