Trading Adventures is a price-focused market analysis newsletter helping traders understand trend, structure, and key levels across the market.
Each week I break down charts across major indices, sectors, and individual names to provide clear technical context.
Show Notes:
Trend remains firmly higher
SPY, QQQ, and IWM at new highs; DIA catching up
~11% move in just over two weeks confirms strong momentum
Extension is the current condition
Price stretched vs. short-term averages
Not an ideal location for initiating risk on higher timeframes
Execution shifts to lower timeframes
Use 30-min / 15-min charts for precision
Define entries against recent lows, 5-day MA, and AVWAPs
Risk management becomes the edge
Smaller size + tighter levels improves participation
Avoid chasing extended price
Bitcoin showing constructive behavior
Holding near YTD AVWAP instead of rejecting
Early sign of potential change in behavior
Intermarket backdrop stable
Bonds steady
Commodities holding
Volatility declining alongside equities
What this teaches
Strong trends don’t eliminate risk—they require better execution
When price is extended, timeframe selection becomes a key decision
Forward lens
Market likely to resolve extension via time or price
Rising 50-day MAs reinforce underlying trend strength
Focus remains: align with trend, define risk, avoid forcing trades
The Process Behind the Work
Price > opinion
Trend > prediction
Risk first
