futures open in 3 hours
Tomorrow's open is going to be full of fake moves. You'll have about a minute to tell.

All weekend it's been noise.
Takes, threads, people who were silent two weeks ago suddenly sure they called the top. None of it moves the market a tick.
At 6 o'clock tonight the futures reopen and the arguing stops.
First honest read on whether Friday's rotation is real or just noise. By the time you wake up Monday, the picture could be completely different.
The 6pm open is the appetizer. The test is 9:30 tomorrow.
After a week like this, Monday's open is going to be fast and full of fakes.
Something spikes in the first ten minutes and it looks like the start of something. Half the time it is. Half the time it's a trap that reverses the second you commit.
And you get about a minute to tell the difference.
That's the problem with trading an open like this alone.
You don't have a plan. You have a guess.
You see the move, you feel the pressure to act, and you jump in with no risk defined and no real reason except it's moving.
That's how a fast open takes your money. Not because the move was wrong. Because you had no plan.
But when you read it right?
TSLA, up 359% in one session
IWM, up 206% same day
TSLA again, up 251% same day
That's what happens when you know the difference.
That's what I'm there for.
Three mornings a week I'm live through that open. When something moves, you get the read. Whether it's worth taking. The level to get in. The risk spelled out. The point that says get out.
And when it's a trap, you hear leave it alone before you've put a dime at risk.
You walk into the move with a plan instead of a feeling.
In a calm market that's a nice-to-have.
Tomorrow it's the difference between a clean trade and a fast loss.
Futures open in three hours.
Trade that open with a plan, not a guess.
To your success,
Don Kaufman
