SPY Levels & Game Plan

Friday, December 5, 2025

Another travel day and no Game Plan published. The levels were run though and are shown in the "After the closing bell" screenshot below. 


After the closing bell...

Trading by the Ticks & Trades Strategy, here is where you would have landed for the day:

First trade was a short at 686.86. That resulted in an 11-point Fumble plus a wash on the reversal. The level at 688.42 was not triggered because of a Near Miss, although that turned out to be the high of the day and would have worked well as the area to be short. The Recycle attempt at 686.86 on the long side was not triggered because of a Near Miss. When price got back down to 685.30, going long there was in the plan we ignore everything that happens in the first 15 minutes of the opening bell. So while they bounced at 685.30 earlier, it was within that first 15 minutes.

Per the rules, a total of -7 ES points for the day.
