My Biggest Single Day Profits in 2025

Dear Traders,

Friday ended up being my biggest single-day profit of 2025. It was the result of staying calm, remaining patient, and trusting my edge in reading liquidity and momentum.

On Thursday, the news and media narrative were set up for fear. The Bank of Japan had just announced rate hikes, and the headlines were designed to make traders nervous. But this is exactly why beginners would fall into the trap of thinking Friday was a day to short aggressively.

What actually happened on Friday was a gap-up overnight followed by a strong bullish opening drive in the SPY, QQQ, and major tech stocks.

This brings me to the most important rule in day trading: Trade the price, not your bias.

Biases based on news headlines can be dangerous. The price action is the only truth you should follow, and on Friday, the price was clearly bullish.

I was watching NVDA, AMD, and TSLA right at the open. Both NVDA and AMD set up perfectly for my strategy, fitting my criteria for an Opening Range Breakout. Throughout the trade, I was closely monitoring the Level 2 order flow and identifying the next liquidity levels using  Market Atlas on TradingTerminal.com.

I have integrated Market Atlas into my tradebook in 2025, and it has significantly increased my conviction in my setups. Because I could clearly see where the liquidity was sitting, I had the confidence to hold my runners (the shares I keep after locking in partial profits) much longer than usual, letting my positions run to the higher liquidity price targets.

I have put together a full, detailed trade recap video. I break down the exact entries, the liquidity levels I was watching on Market Atlas, and my personal reflections on the psychology of the day.
