The move? Textbook BTFD.

🔥 Middle East Tensions Go BOOM

By mid-day, the “restless trader syndrome” got a shot of adrenaline. Headlines hit:

  • BREAKING: Iran moves launchers

  • EXPLOSIONS: Heard in Doha

  • MISSILES: Launched at U.S. bases in Qatar

  • RESULT: All 6 intercepted — Zero casualties

🎯 PTGDavid’s punchline?

“Sell the Missile Launch… Buy the Interception.”

The market obliged — igniting a stunning rally right off the D-Level.

  • 5-Day POC: Tagged around 6038

  • Sandbox Range:

    • Morning: 6040–6055

    • Midday: Expanded with VWAP re-entry energy

  • Open Range Targets:

    • ✅ $NQ TGT 1 hit

    • ✅ $ES TGT 1 fulfilled

🎯 Final Level Hit:

Target: 6081.75
Close: 6081.50 — That’s sniper precision.

🧠 Trader Wisdom & Gamma Guidance

Quote of the Day:

“I have no control over trade outcomes. I can only control the orders I enter.”
— PTGDavid

Gamma Guys Note:

  • Markets still absorbing Friday’s massive OPEX unwind

  • Watch the JPM collar @ 5905 — a gamma shock absorber

  • Crude Oil +80bps = a geopolitical barometer

📘 Educational Takeaways

  • Geopolitical Noise ≠ Direction: Let others panic; you stick to the levels.

  • D-Level Zones Work: Especially during volatile overnight sessions.

  • VWAP Reversion Trades: When buyers fizzle, VWAP often reboots momentum.

  • OPEX Fallout: Monday after expiry can still be “positionally haunted.”

  • Target Fulfillment Awareness: Once expected range is hit, don’t get greedy. As David says: “Everything else is gravy.”

  • Gamma Gravity Matters: Understand how collars (like JPM’s @5905) influence positioning and sentiment.

  • Stay Tactical, Not Emotional: Missiles may fly, but your entries must still follow the rules.

🎬 Final Act

“Wabbit Hunt into the close above the highs…”
“Clear the books…”
“TYVM.”
— PTGDavid

Another day, another warhead absorbed, another level nailed. The great Satan remains unphased. Markets? Bid.
