HaiKhuu Daily Report 12/23/2022
Good morning, happy Friday, and merry early Christmas! With the markets looking extremely enticing at these levels, please look out for opportunities to actively trade and realize some gains, but please make sure to limit the amount of general exposure to the markets.
With the Santa Claus Rally possibly coming up soon, we are in a great spot for the markets to move up accordingly. There is a good chance that this event does not happen this year, but please be on the lookout and anticipate the best, as the majority of traders do not expect this to happen. As a result, there is a chance that it does actually happen and fake traders out. As I’ve said, from early 2022, I expect $SPY to close around $400 at EOY, so it would be surprising to see if that comes true.
Don’t forget to pick up last-minute Christmas gifts, and make sure to have fun this weekend with your family and loved ones! Merry Christmas and happy final days of Hanukkah!
Thoughts & Comments from 12/22/2022
Yesterday was a rough day for the markets. With the markets coming down into open, it was very clear that there was going to be a significant amount of bearish momentum within the day, and it played out perfectly. With the markets trending up going into open, $SPY looked strong, but with us selling off into open, I warned everyone to be cautious and actively hedge as a significant amount of traders would get hurt by the movement down in the market, which was true with yesterday. $SPY opened the day trading at $383.05 and made a relative high of the day trading at $383.37, right from opening before the markets sold off significantly.
We saw continual selling throughout the entire day with no great opportunities to get long throughout the entire morning. Once we broke $380 on $SPY, the markets continued to sell off rapidly, causing a significant amount of fear and irrational selling in the markets. With all of the selling and panic in the markets, we went on to make a low of the day, with $SPY trading at $374.77, meaning $SPY dropped over 2% from open, dropping over 3% since Wednesday's close.
Thankfully, once we did officially start reversing, we quickly bounced back above the $375 support level on $SPY and moved up accordingly into close. $SPY ended the day trading at $380.72, down $5.51 from Wednesday’s close, or down -1.43%, with an intraday return of -0.61%.
It was a tough day overall for the markets, with many opportunities to get burnt toward the downside, but presented us with opportunities to actively make bearish allocations throughout the morning and play the reversal to the upside with relative confidence.
Hopefully, you all seized the opportunities presented to you yesterday and realized a significant amount of gains in the process of everything.
Thoughts & Comments for Today 12/23/2022
Today will be an interesting day that will be guided specifically by the economic news that will be released pre-market. Please watch for this economic news prior to allocating in case the markets sell-off. I believe there is a great chance the markets come down accordingly on PCE data.
Expect selling on the release of economic news. This selling should theoretically get bought back up over the course of the day, but please be careful in the case that we break and hold below $380 on $SPY. With the markets moving significantly prior to opening, please be cautious in attempting to time out an allocation too early in the day before everyone is able to gauge general movement in the markets.
Wait until opportunities are presented to go long in the general markets, but regardless of the movement that happens at open, look to open a significant amount of 0-DTE CSPs for today to collect some premium going into this long weekend.
I personally expect a significant amount of traders to have a difficult time trading today, so please just be smart while trading, limit the amount of general exposure you have in the markets, and practice safe risk management. Increase the amount of general exposure you take with each allocation, but set tighter stop losses and take profits quicker when trading.
Tesla will be sketchy to trade, but I would recommend that people look into allocating into strong high beta allocations in the case the markets dip.
Good luck trading today, and be smart with your positions!
If you want to watch any of my allocations, they will be posted live in the HaiKhuu Discord.

Today, we are not sure which allocation style we want to make prior to the market open as a result of economic news today. Please be careful taking any alerts today because markets will be relatively irrational. Please just allocate wisely in the markets and follow the general momentum to realize a significant amount of gains when given an opportunity to do so.
Our decision will be made in real-time after economic news is released at 8:30 am EST.
All positions will be disclosed prior to markets opening.
