HaiKhuu Daily Report - 10/02/2026
Good morning and happy Friday! This is absolutely crazy how fast this week has flown by! Welcome to the second day of Halloween!!! Markets are up beautifully at the time of writing this report, and everyone should be extremely excited leading into today. With the way the markets are trending, it appears that traders are excited leading into today, as we bounced off of $760 yesterday and are displaying strength.
General market conditions are sketchy leading into today, but given the way that everything is trending, I genuinely believe that there is a chance that the markets have a larger directional move today, and it appears that there is a positive bullish bias at the moment.
Obviously, I cannot guarentee any type of movement in the markets, but given the way that everything is trending, it is hard not to be optimistic going into open. Please, continue to tread lightly and practice safe risk management in these conditions. Many traders are going to be able to realize a significant amount of gains in a short period of time, so just tread lightly, practice safe risk management, and have an amazing time.
Life is good, and so are these market conditions, so end this week strong and realize some gains!
Good luck trading today, and let’s absolutely kill it!

Thoughts & Comments from Yesterday — 10/01/2026
Yesterday was an interesting day for the general markets. I felt that the day absolutely flew by, mostly after warning you all about the realities of a $SPY $760 magnet and larger-scale neutrality. It appears that the ad-libbed report I presented was almost perfect, and I genuinely hope that you all were able to realize a significant amount of gains on the sentiment. But regardless of everything, with the way the markets trended, it was almost hard not to capitalize on the conditions. So hey, hopefully you all were able to realize a significant amount of gains in the process and had an amazing time!
We started yesterday with $SPY trading at $764.42. General market conditions were alright, as $SPY was up slightly from the previous close and moved up slightly after the open; throughout the morning, we were met with continued bearish momentum. Obviously, conditions were less than ideal when we were dropping, and we watched as $SPY went on and broke $760 leading into the lunchtime lull. During that time at the bottom, I joked that it was the bottom and we were going to bounce from $760, and man, was that almost a perfect shout. $SPY made the official low of the day trading at $758.80, and had a beautiful recovery into the early afternoon.
After that lunchtime lull, buying volume came back into the general markets, and we watched as everything recovered beautifully. We went black again for the day leading into the back half of the afternoon, and went on to make the official high of the day, trading at $765.65. This means there was about a $6 recovery from the bottom, meaning that anyone who bought the dip was presented with a beautiful opportunity.
The markets did come back down slightly leading into the final minutes of the trading day, where we ultimately ended the day with $SPY trading at $7634.99, meaning $SPY was up 0.2% over the day, or up roughly $1.50, despite being red on an intraday basis.
What I will say is that these market conditions were obviously less than “ideal,” but given the way the markets moved and the way that traders were able to capitalize on the conditions, anyone and everyone could have easily realized a significant amount of gains in the process! Life is good, and these market conditions are amazing, so hopefully you all were able to make the most out of yesterday and have a great time.

Thoughts & Comments for Today - 10/02/2026
Today is going to be a funky time for the general markets. With the way that everything is trending at the moment, traders should be excited leading into today, and hopefully that excitement is enough to cause us to have a nice directional breakout. Over the past couple of days, markets have continued to remain in this relative neutrality zone, where $SPY has been consistently testing daily support levels.
Over the past week, $SPY has continued to test the daily cloud support, daily baseline support, and has broken below the daily conversion line support. As a result of this placement, lots of things can happen in a short period of time, and that is what I need to warn you about.
We are about to see one of three types of movements in the markets, and it is for you to predict what is about to happen and capitalize on it.
1) We are about to watch as the markets continue to break out from this level. With the bullish momentum we are experiencing during the pre-market session, that momentum continues, and watch as $SPY continues to rally towards $770, and possibly can break that level and trend up towards the end of the week
2) We watch as the momentum that has been built is quickly sold off. I do not hope that there is a bearish movement in the markets, but under the assumption that we see some random news headlines or general selling sentiment, I would expect that the markets sell off. In the case that we do, know that $760 is very much within the realm of possibilities.
3) We watch as there is generalized, larger-scale neutrality. This is the worst, in my opinion, as there will be opportunities to scalp and trade on an intraday basis, but there will be no “good” opportunities, as there was no real directional movement. We may move around slightly before watching as the markets chop, drop, and cause weakness and fear in the markets. This is not ideal, but it is a realistic thing to expect in these conditions.
Just please, make sure you are taking on proper risk while managing your risk accordingly. Don’t scale into your winners too lightly, and don’t scale into your losers at all. Protect your bottom line, and you are going to be in a great spot.
I will be looking for some 0-DTE option contracts today towards the end of the day. If you are looking for something fun to trade and looking to take on some risk, I’ve been saying this for months now, but 0-DTE Friday option contracts are going to be the best risk-to-reward exposure you can have in the markets. Conditions are great for this, as there is the potential to catch a large directional breakout in the final hour or so of the day, so please make sure you are back in the call for the final two hours of the trading day; we will find some great plays to make together and hopefully print as a community.
I do just need to say that if you are attempting to scalp 0-DTE option contracts, to understand the risk and positioning you have to take. If you allocate improperly, if you purchase the wrong contract, or are purchasing something that does not go in your favor, expect a 100% loss almost instantly. This is the most instant gratification in the entire market, so please, practice safe risk management and be smart with the ways you are attempting to allocate and trade today!
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.
