The Big Short on SPCX

Dear Traders,

I’m grateful for an amazing day, locking in $92K day trading SPCX and $50K unrealized on options swing trades.

The markets squeezed to near all-time high yesterday but today turned risk-off mode. The main fundamental catalyst is that new FED Chair Kevin Warsh will be hosting his first ever FOMC and markets expect no rate cut and potentially a different communication style that could lead to uncertainty.
In BBT chatroom today, many traders followed the same trade idea: short SPCX first red day.
Paras, Peter and I were all tracking this move from $215 down to $199.
We were paying attention to multiple factors for this short, including SpaceX’s market cap, the first red day technical pattern, Market Atlas $200 huge bid, and Michael Burry’s posts on X.

I made a trade recap when I was still live trading SPCX today, so you can listen to exactly what I was thinking and how I read the price during this trade.

The Big Short Part 3? Dr. Michael Burry Tweeted Again

Last time when Michael Burry targeted PLTR and NVDA, PLTR actually fell hard from its peak. He is known for his fundamental research and his legendary mortgage crisis trade in 2008.

However, as day traders, we don’t really rely on beliefs or hype. Our real edge comes from recognizing the first red day chart pattern, and most importantly, being able to see liquidity levels on Market Atlas.

The $200 liquidity level was so clear today on Market Atlas, giving me the conviction to hold on to my short all the way to this realistic price target.
