HaiKhuu Daily Report - 04/15/2026
Good morning and happy Wednesday! Wow, already hump day. Markets are looking absolutely AMAZING leading into today. $SPY is down $0.40 at the time of writing this report, meaning there is not too much concern in these conditions at this point, but much can change before the markets open. Please, go into today continuing to be both optimistic yet skeptical of these conditions.
Traders can easily realize a significant amount of gains in an extremely short period of time as a result of the volatility that is being provided to us, but like a double-edged sword, that volatility can lead to you realizing losses. So, go into today looking to take advantage of this momentum, look to have some fun, and look to realize some gains.
There are many signs leading to the fact that these conditions are stronger than most expect. This is just a reminder that we have officially broken out on the $SPY Daily, showing a bullish TK cross over, with a confirmation of a reversal as $SPY has broken above the daily cloud resistance, and is back towards testing the previous all-time highs. We are out of fear on the Fear and Greed index, and traders are more comfortable allocating now than previously.
Just know that these market conditions are a toss-up, but they are consistently filled with opportunities across the board. So tread lightly, and make the most out of today!
The updated $SPY daily levels are as follows:
Conversion Line Support: $669.85
Baseline Support: $661.93
Psychological Support: $680
Daily Cloud Support: $683.75
Thoughts & Comments from Yesterday - 04/14/2026
Yesterday was an absolutely insane day for the markets that provided us all with opportunities to scalp and realize a significant amount of gains in a short period of time. I just want to say congrats to everyone who was able to make the most out of the volatility that came in the markets yesterday, because anyone who was able to take advantage of the momentum realized a significant amount of gains!
We started yesterday with the market conditions looking great. $SPY opened the day trading at $687.66, which was the official low of the day, and we watched as market conditions only continued to trend up throughout the day. Yesterday was one of those days where if you very literally bought at any time throughout the day, and simply held your positions, you “Should” have won, assuming you were holding the position throughout the day.
The markets only continued to trend up throughout the morning, displaying more and more confidence through the day, continuing to make new highs after new highs throughout the entire morning, through the lunchtime lull, all the way until the back half of the afternoon. During the back half of the afternoon is when we started to slow down for the first time in the day, but honestly, after the entire morning we saw, I don’t think anyone was complaining.
$SPY slowed down around $694, before dropping slightly to test $692 leading into power hour, where $SPY recovered once again, making a new high of the day leading into close, trading at $694.58, and officially ending the day at $694.46, up $8.36 for the day, or up roughly 1.2% overall.
So, what I will say is that yesterday was an absolutely insane day for the markets with opportunities to actively trade and realize a significant amount of gains in an extremely short period of time. I am extremely proud of everyone who was able to capitalize on these conditions, and happy knowing that lives could have been changed yesterday. Most people’s lives were just positively impacted, but regardless, life. So let’s see where the markets decide to take us today, and make the most of these conditions!

Thoughts & Comments for Today - 04/15/2026
Today is setting up to be another amazing day for the markets. I do not know how much more the markets can rally from this point, and I do believe that realistically, the markets do have a significant amount of upside resistance at this point. The official all-time high on $SPY is at $697.84; we can easily break out to that point and be optimistic, but it is hard not to be skeptical of these conditions. For $SPY to make a new all-time high right now, we need to rally approximately $3, meaning that $SPY would need to move less than 0.5% to make a new all-time high.
These conditions are beautiful; traders should print, but traders should also remain realistic with their expectations of the markets at this level.
I am not saying that $SPY cannot move up from here nor that traders can’t realize a significant amount of gains, but this is one of those times where I do genuinely believe it will be more difficult to capitalize on general indexes as a result of the movement we are seeing. The markets are strong, but with such a short runway, it is hard to be overly optimistic.
Continue to look at strong, higher beta tech stocks that have been hit heavily over the previous couple of weeks, because those organizations are going to rally the hardest during this recovery. You’ve already seen that happen with semis recovering beautifully over the past week, so hopefully that momentum does remain and continue at these levels.
This is not financial advice when I say this, but I do genuinely believe that single name stocks are going to be a better shout for an allocation today than attempting to purchase 0-DTE contracts on indexes, not only from a risk perspective, but also understanding the fact that there is a lot of resistance for the general markets, despite the fact that we easily can watch as some organizations break out. So follow trends and momentum, and do everything you can as a result of that, to realize some gains.
The biggest thing you all have to remember at this point, and the biggest concern I have in the markets, is the fact that DJT can easily say anything at anytime which ultimately results in volatility in the markets. As much as I would love to be bullish and optimistic leading into today, this statement alone scares me. All we need is a single news headline that results in the markets to sell off. We are still experiencing wartime news headlines, so hopefully, nothing of any major negative significance happens today, and we are all able to make the most of this volatility.
Stay away from allocating here at these all-time highs, and continue to actively scalp and day trade when possible. I think we are all going to have a lot of fun, so please just continue to do what you are doing, and realize some gains!
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.
