In an uptrend, price doesn’t have to move straight up. 📈 Healthy moves often include pullbacks. The key is watching whether price returns to a support area, buyers step back in, and bullish confirmation appears before considering an entry. 🎯 Trend → Pullback → Support → Confirmation → Continuation Don’t chase the move. Let the setup come to you. We confirm, not guess. Educational purposes only. Trading involves risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

🌎 MARKET CONTEXT The market opened green, but several major technology stocks experienced sharp early pullbacks. SPY, QQQ, and IWM are still holding relatively strong, while AAPL and AMZN are showing weakness. Don’t chase the opening move. Allow the first 15-minute candle to establish structure, then use the 5-minute and 2-minute charts for confirmation. 📊 VIX GAME PLAN Current VIX: 15.47 🟢 Under 16 = Buyers In Control 🟡 16–18 = Caution 🔴 Above 18 = Sellers In Control The VIX remains below 16, which favors buyers, but individual stocks can still sell off.
