How to Trade Hot Setups Amid Geopolitical Risks and Market Chop

Today we’re diving into the current state of the stock market and the best ways to navigate it. Geopolitical tensions between Russia and Iran, combined with a choppy overall market, have traders feeling uncertain. But here’s the good news: even in these conditions, there are hot setups out there just waiting to be taken advantage of.

The Market Overview

The indices are stuck in chop mode, grinding down day by day with little action. While that might be frustrating, it’s important to remember that individual stocks can still give us fantastic opportunities. The S&P 500 has been chopping for 11 days straight, but the broader market is showing bullish setups across various sectors.

Why Geopolitical Tensions Matter

The end-of-day market dump today was likely influenced by a meeting between Russia and Iran. Events like this can cause brief market shocks, but they don’t necessarily signal long-term trends. Markets tend to shrug off geopolitical concerns unless they escalate into something more significant. For us, as traders, it’s all about finding individual stocks with solid setups.

Key Stock Picks and Setups

  1. Nvidia (NVDA): Nvidia popped up today, pulling back into what I call the “bone zone.” This is an ideal spot to go long with the 127 calls, which have already paid off handsomely. If Nvidia breaks higher tomorrow, it could run even further.
  2. Tiger (TIGR): We shorted this bad boy throughout the day, taking advantage of its weakness. This type of stock is ideal for day traders looking to profit from short setups.
  3. OKLO: This nuclear stock has been on fire with a solid breakout setup. After an inside day today, this one is primed for a potential red-to-green move tomorrow.
  4. BVhN: A hot IPO stock in the space sector, BVHN has shown some massive range. Keep this one on your radar for a swing trade opportunity.

The Geopolitical Angle

While the broader market has been impacted by news from Russia and Iran, the real story is in individual stocks. Focus on the setups that work for you and ignore the noise from the broader indices. We’ve been trading a range of names with fantastic success, from small-cap stocks to tech giants there have been breakouts galore.
