HaiKhuu Daily Report - 10/09/2025
Good morning, and happy Thursday! Wow. These market conditions have been extremely volatile with irrational movements everywhere. Traders are confused left and right, while we are watching as market momentum continues to remain strong and optimistic. As I have said before, I may be wrong in the short term, but I am still extremely skeptical of these conditions.
Again, markets are strong and optimistic. Looking great, and it is honestly in a place where it would be wise to continue to be cautious, despite the fact that $SPY is only continuing to rally and display strength at this time. So regardless of how you personally anticipate allocating in these market conditions, just remember that things are going to continue to be volatile and confusing.
Weakness “should” come soon, so be on the lookout for whatever news or catalyst might finally cause that sentiment. Again, I do not know what is going to be the reasoning for us to come down, but just be hesitant and skeptical while attempting to buy long equities at this point, and have fun consistently scalping where possible.
Traders are going to have a mixed bag of reactions today, with some generating some life-changing gains, while others are having a terrible time. So be logical, practice safe risk management, and decrease your generalized risks.
Good luck trading today, and let’s continue to see NEW all-time highs!
The updated $SPY daily levels are as follows:
Conversion Line Support: $665.54
Baseline Support: $656.83
Psychological Support: $660
Daily Cloud Support: $637.80
Thoughts & Comments from Yesterday - 10/08/2025
Yesterday was an absolutely insane day for the overall markets. We were weak and bearish going into open, watched as markets reversed and displayed strength during the pre-market session, before quickly chopping some kids out, and launched off to a new all-time high. I feel bad saying this, but I think it is lowkey highkey funny joking about how $SPY was going to make an all-time high yesterday, calling it out 15 minutes after open, after 0-dte traders got chopped a time and a half.
SO, we started the day with $SPY at $670.34. Conditions were alright, and I watched as $SPY sold off, going on to make the official low of the day at $669.43. Conditions were less than ideal at the bottom as $SPY whipped around heavily in the first 15~ minutes of the day, rallying up, selling off, recovering, and selling off again.
But man, after that first 15 minutes, it was game over. We watched as the markets rallied from the bototm, went on to push to break $672 leading into the lunchtime session, and then watched as $SPY continued to remain extremely neutral around the $672-$673 range, resulting in slow chop throughout the entire afternoon, despite the fact that $SPY inched up and made a new all-time high trading at $673.20, up $0.21 from the previous all-time high.
We then went on to officially end the day with $SPY trading at $673.11, up approximately $4 for the day, or up 0.6% overall. I am not saying that these market conditions are perfect, but man, have these market conditions become challenging to navigate, providing us with some insane opportunities to trade and realize some gains. So, I hope that you all were able to realize a significant amount of gains yesterday and had a lot of fun in the process!

Thoughts & Comments for Today - 10/09/2025
Today is going to be a fun time for the markets. With the generalized strength and confusion, we really are preparing to see another breakout in the markets. I am not a fan of this. I am still extremely skeptical and believe that the markets will inevitably come down, but at least at the moment, we are seeing some strength during the pre-market session that should result in traders becoming more optimistic throughout the day.
Assuming that market momentum continues to remain strong, I do not see anything necessarily wrong about this sentiment, but at the same time, with the way that the markets are trending, it would not surprise me in the case that we come down in the near future. Again, I may be wrong about my sentiment in the short term as $SPY continues to move up slowly, but I really am not loving these conditions.
We will watch to see where the markets take us, and make the most out of that generalized confusion. Just please, be careful and cautious about these conditions. As I have said before, as pessimistic as this is starting to sound, I do NOT like these market conditions, and with the way that everything is setting up at the moment, every movement up makes me just a little bit more skeptical.
Conditions could continue to strengthen, and we continue to rally from here, but realistically this is one of those times that I want you to all be able to sit back, relax, and enjoy some quick bearish momentum before buying the dip and watching as $SPY rallies to $700 by the end of the year. That would be the ideal scenario, and that is what I personally am envisioning with the markets. Whether this remains true or not is a different story. BUT HEY, as long as enough of us wear tinfoil hats, we SHOULD be alright.
But in reality, again, please be under the expectation that market conditions are going to be extremely volatile with large dollar movements that make trading extremely irrational and difficult to do consistently. So, please, continue to make the most out of these market conditions. We are going to have a lot of fun, realize a significant amount of gains, and have an amazing time. Please, continue to tread lightly on these conditions as the reality of downside has only continued to increase.
What I will say on top of this is that regardless of the direction of the markets. Never fight any trend. Just because I am less confident in the market does not mean that I am necessarily bearish, nor does it mean that I am selling positions. I am continuing to hold my strong equity positions and doing what I can to capitalize on the short-term momentum and volatility in these markets. So, just is something to consider in these conditions while markets continue to remain generally irrational. But hey, it’s a great time with opportunities presented to us left and right. So, let’s have some fun today 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.

Wrap up
Hopefully, market conditions only continue to remain strong. I am extremely skeptical about these conditions and again, am maintaining my stance that I believe that the markets are going to inevitably come down, am reframing from entering into general long positions, and doing everything within my power to maximize the opportunities that are available.
Good luck trading, and let’s start this week strong!!!
