Dear Fellow Trader:
We got the plane off the ground yesterday. The reviews for TheoTrade Live: Market Masters were fantastic.
But not everyone was there, so I’m writing to you again with this invitation to our free morning show.
I’ll be live at 8:45 this morning… and every weekday morning.
Yesterday, I laid out my favorite names for breakout conditions when this market settles.
We also explained what’s really driving this selloff and introduced our members to the indicators I use to find high-flying stocks.
This morning, here’s what’s in focus:
Our Morning Checkup
We’ll unveil our first watchlist, discuss the headlines that matter (and don’t), examine critical indicators, and set expectations for the next 11 days (through March 21).
We talk momentum, sectors to trade today actively, and the stocks already on the move.
If you’re not taking these five minutes to prepare for each trading session, you’re setting yourself up for challenges. It’s like not stretching and running eight miles.
Our Core Breakout Indicators
Want to find breakout stocks on your own?
I’ll give you a low-risk, high-reward strategy to help you follow the money and the volume. All you need to do is set your charts and be ready to roll…
Let’s Talk Tesla…
What goes up… soon goes down.
Tesla’s massive crash since February 1 is a testament to the importance of technical trading. We saw the warning signs building but never expected this sort of selloff would happen. In hindsight, it makes so much sense.
I want you to be prepared the next time something like this happens, so let me fire up the screens and show you precisely what my charts told me about TSLA on February 4.
The Daily Deviation Trade
Perhaps I didn’t explain this one too well last week in my debut.
So, let me take a step back. The deviation band trading strategy is designed to take advantage of surprise selloffs and relief rallies at specific times of the day.
Take Friday, March 7 as a perfect example of what we’re seeking as traders.
The SPDR Select Sector Energy Fund (XLE) bounced off the bottom of these lines (Deviation Bands of Price) at 11:45.
Then, it was a $1.60 rebound over the next three hours. That might not sound like a huge rebound, but it can be a massive profit for traders using options expiring that day.
You can use this every day…
We’ll talk about the EIGHT tickers you must add to your list and watch each day for these reversals…
Why?
Because all of them have options that expire… today.
It will be a fantastic show, and I want you to be there.
So, grab your coffee and turn off the mainstream morning shows; it’s too important. Click Here to Join the Room
S&P 500 Momentum is Negative
This SPY chart shows the market breakdown started around Feb. 20, without our signal turning negative on Feb. 21, confirmed by a FNGD breakout on Feb. 24. The RSI and MFI are both now oversold. This is theoretically where short-covering picks up, but investors and traders need to be cautious, as any short-term pops can be used for further selling. Be patient.
Yesterday, we also introduced readers to our Momentum Reading.
This reading is the most important daily signal you can process.
When we discovered it and enhanced it with additional technical data, it saved us from avoiding the COVID-19 crash. It also helped my readers avoid…
The 2022 June Hedge Fund Selloff (Red on June 10, 2022; selloff to June 17)
The 2022 GILT Crisis (Red in late August 2022; selloff to early October)
The Silicon Valley Banking Crisis in 2023 (Red in March 7, 2023; SVB crashed just days later)
The October 2023 Spike in Bond Yields (Red in late September 2023; selling off into May)
The August 2024 Nikkei Crash (Red on Aug. 1, 2024; Nikkei blew up Aug. 5)
The 2025 Tariff Selloff (Red on February 21, 2025; selloff still ensuing)
Now, a NEGATIVE signal doesn’t mean that one of these types of events is guaranteed. Sometimes, there’s just simple profit-taking that looks like a bigger issue.
But you sure would like to know when to take gains and consider shorting while the money leaves, right?
This is a simple equation that I outlined yesterday to track outflows before they turn into very volatile situations.
I bring this to TheoTrade each morning because I want to help you find the best trades, make the most profit, and manage your risk.
As you’ll learn this week, I’ve brought 17 years of academic work down to three equations. And you’ll be learning all of them this week.
Get the momentum reading.
Get our Reversion Stock list…
And get ready for a new perspective on the markets from me…
Stay positive,
Garrett Baldwin
