Trading Recap Focus Video

Hewlett-Packard (HPE) delivered one of the clearest Baltimore Chop setups we’ve seen in recent weeks after a massive earnings-driven opening gap triggered on the 2SD scanner. In tonight’s lesson, Adrian Manz breaks down the trapdoor setup, institutional profit-taking, Fibonacci expansion targets, and how volume-by-price analysis helped identify where order flow was likely headed throughout the session. The lesson also covers RealTick execution techniques and the importance of managing trades dynamically as liquidity and momentum evolve intraday.

Market Highlights

Today's Trading Recap

Friday’s trading was driven by shifting expectations around inflation, oil prices, and the developing situation with Iran. After earlier fears that rising energy prices could reignite inflation pressures, crude oil pulled back sharply on hopes of potential de-escalation and ceasefire discussions, helping stabilize broader market sentiment.

The result was a choppy, mixed session as traders weighed still-elevated inflation concerns against the possibility that easing geopolitical tensions could reduce pressure on energy markets and future Fed policy. Technology and growth stocks remained active but lacked strong follow-through, while the broader market stayed largely range-bound heading into the weekend.
