HaiKhuu Daily Report - 09/26/2025

Good morning, and happy FRIDAY!!!! Wow. This week has been FLYING by as markets have been extremely gross. I hope you all have enjoyed this insane market momentum and have been realizing gains in the process. Markets are up slightly at the time of writing this report, and I genuinely hope that traders are all going to be able to realize gains with relative ease. 

Conditions are going to be difficult; there is no reason to attempt to sugarcoat that, but just know that opportunities genuinely will be presented to us left and right today. Please, if you are attempting to trade, make sure that you are practicing safe risk management. 

One organization that I want you to put your eyes back on is $INTC. I know I have sold my initial position as that has come 100% to fruition, but oh my god, everything that is going on right now is going absolutely INSANE. 

So, just know that going into today, conditions are relatively strong, and opportunities will be amongst us. We should all have a genuinely amazing time taking advantage of the opportunities that present themselves to us today. Let’s realize some gains and have an amazing time!

Good luck trading today, and let’s see where $SPY takes us!

The updated $SPY daily levels are as follows:
Conversion Line Support: $660.82
Baseline Support: $650.14
Psychological Support: $660
Daily Cloud Support: $634.88

Thoughts & Comments from Yesterday - 09/25/2025

Yesterday was a genuinely disgusting day for the markets. There were singular organizations that did well, $INTC included, but the large majority of organizations and the markets had a genuinely disgusting time. Markets were not optimal to trade yesterday, and many traders could have lost their ass, and did lose their ass attempting to trade. Hopefully, you all did alright, but man, that was a tough time.

So, we started the day with markets looking bearish, dropping roughly $4 during the pre-market session, opening the day at $657.98. Conditions were less than ideal at open as $SPY quickly dropped, broke through $655, and scared lots of traders, all before the first half hour was over.

Thankfully, the markets recovered quickly from the bottom and watched as $SPY rallied throughout the rest of the morning, going on to make the official high of the day, trading at $659.40, before coming back down once again, leading into the afternoon. $SPY went on to make the official low of the day, trading at $654.41, meaning there was a $5 movement in two hours. Many traders were slaughtered in the process, and then watched as $SPY recovered 100% of what was lost, within roughly an hour, where we remained extremely neutral, ending the day with $SPY trading at $658.05, down $3 for the day.

I am not going to say that yesterday was a good day, because it truly was not a good day for the markets, but it shows that despite the confusion that is in the markets, experience and rationality will always prove to be the best skills in the markets.

It was very easily predictable that yesterday was going to be a tough day for the markets. So, congrats to anyone who was able to dodge the bullets. Congrats to anyone who capitalized on the weakness in the markets, and let’s see what the markets can do for us today!

Thoughts & Comments for Today - 09/26/2025

So, going into today, to keep this as honest as possible, I am expecting many traders to have an extremely difficult time. This may be a buy-the-dip opportunity, or this may be a continuation of the current bearish trend. I do not know where we are realistically headed, but I just know that going into today, I am expecting a directional momentum-based move that we all can easily capitalize on. 

We have been in a bearish trend for a short period, which is obviously less than ideal. However, with the generalized strength we are seeing during the pre-market session, I am unsure if this will become an absolutely amazing buy-the-dip opportunity. I believe that traders should have no problem attempting to find trades, but the difficult part is going to be letting that trade come to fruition. It is obviously easier said than done to simply say sell at the top, but all you have to do to close out your position is simply click a button. 

Please, do not be passive when attempting to trade today. People will be able to print with relative ease, and I do not believe the conditions will be difficult. These conditions are strong; traders should remain relatively confident, and I am extremely excited to see where the markets go from here. 

Now, let’s take some time to discuss $INTC and what is going on. So, first things first. Gotta say this again. Suck it. We were so right on $INTC and our $35 PT.  The question now is, what happens next? 

Here are my thoughts on Intel (INTC) as an organization now. 

Before I proceed, I must clarify that I am not a financial advisor, and none of this should be considered financial advice or a signal to buy or sell any position. 

However, considering everything that has been said at the moment, I think that realistically, $INTC is likely to continue moving up. So, take your side of the bet. Would you rather not allocate and kick yourself as you watch $INTC rally to $50 in an extremely short period of time, or are you going to FOMO in here at a 52-week high and pray that you do not blow your life savings? It is easier said than done, but at this price, it is extremely difficult to think rationally. 

If you were with us holding your strong $INTC, continue to hold and maintain that position. You should be beautiful. Set a stop in guaranteed profit and limit your generalized risk. 

If you intend to get in now, Godspeed. Retail is slowly picking up on $INTC, and this position has worked out beautifully for us from our initial thesis at $18-20. Entering here at a 52-week high is going to be extremely difficult to do with confidence, so just tread lightly. 

The best way to trade $INTC at this point, though, in my opinion, assuming you do not have a position, is to keep it that way. Imagine I was hosting a party in Miami, and personally invited you to come down. You say you cannot make it, so we'll go party without you. You see that the party is lit, so you fly in an hour AFTER the party started, and hope that there is enough party left at the end of the day to make it worth your flight. If the answer is most likely not, then what’s the difference here? We told you to buy at $18, we told you to buy at $22, and we told you to watch out for $35. Now that it has arrived, hitting our exit points is when people are starting to consider the play. 

So, I am not saying that anyone is necessarily wrong for looking into $INTC at this price, but I will say that you are taking on a significant amount of risk, and honestly, it is more risk than most traders are going to be able to handle with confidence, so if you do not know what you are doing. Tread extremely lightly and stay away.

(But, if you do want to gamble, 0-dte $INTC calls at open and a prayer should be a lot of fun)

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.

Hopefully, market conditions continue to become more favorable, and we are able to see some solid bullish momentum in the process. Many traders will, unfortunately, get taken advantage of in the process, while others will absolutely make a profit. So, godspeed to anyone attempting to trade; may the markets be in your favor, and the gains come so quickly that you don’t even know where they are coming from. 

Good luck trading, and let’s end this week strong!!!
