- Mar 23, 2026 — We’re opening a position in a Russell 2000 fund, which may try to form a base for a bounce off the 200-day EMA. The idea is a setup similar to what we saw in November 2025.
A lot of the negative news is already priced in. We’ll keep an eye on the price action.
- Jul 2, 2026 — We are taking profits here as deeper profit-taking risks emerge.

- Mar 19, 2026 — $IWM — short-term setup
Opened a ~5% short-term long position in iShares Russell 2000 ETF ($IWM) from the watchlist.
The expectation is that the ETF may push toward new highs. Price is trying to break above a descending trendline, which could trigger an upside momentum move.
Stop hasn’t been set yet.
- Mar 19, 2026 — Locked in +2.4% on the speculative position.
Will try to re-enter a bit later.
If desired, you could let the profit run by keeping the position with a breakeven stop.
