Saturday Trades Wednesday Update 1/31/2024

GOOGL, MSFT Beat, Markets get clobbered

GOOGL and MSFT both beat expectations and got hammered on the good news. The markets followed suit and are down sharply this morning. As we have warned in the past, news is mostly priced in and anything but spectacular would create selling pressure.

Today we have the FED along with more earnings, anything goes for the action. Based on Tuesday’s action and some of the things we talked about the tops could be in, we don’t know yet but are aware. Be careful and pick your spots based on the patterns

Roll SPY, QQQ to Thursday, IWM to Friday.

AMD filled on Monday, you can work the other orders today

The selling should help the rolls, let them work as is until midday and then start going to midpoint
