HaiKhuu Daily Report - 03/13/2025
Good morning and happy Thursday! I hope you all are ready and excited for a fun day for the markets. Markets are down again at the time of writing this report. $SPY closed the night trading nicely above $560, and we are currently at $556. Hopefully, market conditions will have recovered by open. As a reminder, these market conditions are sketchy and difficult to navigate, but there will be MANY hidden gems in the markets that provide us with opportunities here in the short term!
Congratulations to everyone who has been loading up on those hidden gems with us, as $INTC has rallied beautifully on news that they have picked out a NEW CEO. So, everyone should be smiling and counting the money today. Just note, I will most likely sell the rest of my shares of $INTC; it all comes down to market momentum at open, as well as my thoughts and feelings.
Just continue to practice safe risk management in these market conditions, tread lightly, and let’s do what we can to realize some gains!!!
Good luck trading, and let’s make the most of today!
The updated $SPY daily levels are as follows:
Conversion Line Resistance: $574.68
Baseline Resistance: $582.62
Psychological Resistance: $560
Daily Cloud Resistance: $596.85
Thoughts & Comments from Yesterday - 03/12/2025
Yesterday was an interesting time. There was significant intraday momentum, opportunity, and overall great market sentiment. I hope that many of you could capitalize on yesterday's bullish momentum because, man, oh, man, traders could have easily printed in both directions or gotten absolutely slaughtered.
So, we started the day during the pre-market session. Markets were already looking great, but we watched as everything rallied on strong CPI news. It was a beautiful time, and we opened the day with $SPY trading at $562.22. Conditions were great, and we watched as $SPY quickly rallied and went on to make the official high of the day trading at $563.10, before ultimately watching as there was a significant amount of bearish momentum, as we watched as $SPY sold off from the top, pretty much straight down throughout the rest of the morning, only bottoming out during the lunchtime lull, making the official low of the day trading at $553.72. Conditions at the bottom were tough, but really did provide us with an amazing opportunity to load up and go long, and thankfully, many traders followed our positions, and we watched as $SPY rallied from the relative bottom, back to the $560 range where we hovered for pretty much the rest of the day.
The afternoon was relatively choppy, kinda remaining within a tight range of $560, popping up ever so slightly at some points, to selling slightly, killing $558 for a little bit, but ultimately, we watched as $SPY sold off slightly into close, where we officially ended the day with $SPY trading at $558.87, up $3 for the day, or up roughly 0.5%, but watched as $SPY dropped roughly $4 from open.
It was a difficult day to capitalize on, but if I am being completely honest, it was a super easy time with some great opportunities to trade. Many traders capitalized on the bullish $INTC news during the pre-market session and were able to rinse and repeat the organization. There was a significant amount of free money that could have been capitalized on yesterday, so I hope you all were able to realize a significant amount of gains and had a lot of fun!

Thoughts & Comments for Today - 03/13/2025
Today is going to be another rather interesting time for the markets. With a significant amount of strength and opportunity being presented to us in these market conditions, I expect to see some volatility and difficulty coming from these conditions. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is something that we should all realistically consider when it comes to actively trading and realizing gains. It's not going to be easy at all in any way, shape, or form attempting to trade, and in reality, these conditions make it HARDER to trade, but as I have been saying. Everyone is a great trader when markets only continue to move up; only the best of traders can remain extremely consistent during this time and generate gains with relative ease.
Whatever you do now, please continue to take advantage of these market conditions. I know these conditions have been rough and difficult to navigate with confidence, and I am not attempting to sugarcoat that nor tell anyone otherwise. These conditions are challenging. But they will provide you with some fantastic opportunities. Over the previous couple of weeks, I have consistently played the upside while trading despite the hideous market conditions. I am not attempting to hide the fact that I am fighting momentum and scalping where I can, but it is more a show of how a successful trader can make an opportunity despite conditions not being ideal. So, just something to consider. Find a way for you to allocate that is EV+ that you believe is a solid position, and we will simply just go from there!
Make sure that you are buying this dip. Many organizations are highly undervalued in these market conditions. The most straightforward purchases are going to be allocating into the indices, but if you are looking for single names, all of the MAG-7s are an alright place to allocate. Any of those positions, in reality, when the markets move up, should not have any difficulty at all in anyway shape or form moving up, (outside of external news), but I believe that those organizations will underperform in the short term compared to the “hidden gems” that people are not putting their eyes on, IE: $INTC. So, again, just something to consider in these conditions, primarily knowing the opportunities available to us and what is hopefully to come.
Just please, practice safe risk management. I’ve seen many traders take on a significant amount of risk and exposure over the previous couple of weeks, with some traders, unfortunately, blowing up accounts. So, the easiest way to not get shot is to simply not step in front of the gun. You cannot blow up an account by practicing safe risk management and managing position size. Never go all-in on a 0-DTE contract, or honestly ANY contract. It’s slightly different when it comes to actively scalping equities, but my statement stands for anyone attempting to trade options at this time.
This has been a wild ride for anyone in $INTC with me. $INTC moved up beautifully on the news that TSM was interested in selling their foundry, resulting in the organization rallying beautifully. I sold half of my position at the top and repurchased that organization close to the relative bottom. I have since already sold half of the position as $INTC has found a NEW CEO to take over the company, but at the same time, now is the time, in my opinion, to jump ship. This CEO can easily fix $INTC and bring it back into the limelight, but I am not here to take on that risk and exposure. Anything can happen, but I know I will most likely exit some, if not ALL of my $INTC long equity today and move on from it as a position. Again, we may re-add it in the future, but I need to evaluate the current CEO’s performance before making any just statements about them. This CEO can easily kill the organization, bringing it back under $10 a share, this CEO can easily take over the world and make $INTC $100/share, who knows what is about to happen, because I clearly don’t, all I know is I am not here to take on that risk or exposure. Lemme take my profits and move on with my life!
My intentions for my allocations today are the same. I do not intend on gambling or trading heavily, but at the same time, I have had a lot of fun over the previous couple of weeks, so we will see what happens in real time. I will say that I am toward the end of my “risk,” where I am starting to simply go more long equities in my portfolio and will continually adjust those allocations accordingly under the assumption that markets attempt to reverse sometime within the near future as I “believe” that we are toward the bottom. Whether we are or not is an entirely different question, and I do not know the answer.
If I see any opportunities, or if I decide to get into any other plays, I’ll announce what I see in the HaiKhuu Discord.
