TSLA Bookmap Trade Recap
This TSLA trade came from a great War Room question: how to use Bookmap in real time to manage exits.
The setup was a trend-aligned long taken at a key floor trader pivot. As price moved higher, Bookmap revealed clear overhead liquidity and volume-by-price resistance that aligned with prior intraday reversals.
That confluence defined the profit target.
Instead of guessing or pushing for more, the exit was taken at the most likely inflection point—turning the trade into a clean winner rather than a grind.
Watch the video above for a step-by-step breakdown of how Bookmap confirmed the exit level as the trade unfolded live.

Market Recap: What Drove Price Action Today
Today’s price action was driven by a mix of selective risk-taking and intraday rotation, rather than broad conviction in one direction.
Early market strength came from continued leadership in mega-cap and AI-linked names, which helped stabilize the Nasdaq and kept buyers engaged on pullbacks. However, that strength was uneven, and upside momentum faded as the session progressed.
As the day went on, profit-taking and overhead technical resistance limited follow-through, particularly after early moves reached well-defined intraday levels. Rather than trending, the market shifted into a more two-sided, rotational environment, with gains being sold and pullbacks finding buyers near support.
Rates and macro headlines remained largely in the background, leaving technical levels, order flow, and short-term positioning as the primary drivers. This created an environment where clean opportunities existed, but required discipline and precision—especially around entries and exits.
Overall, today was less about chasing direction and more about executing around inflection points, favoring traders who stayed patient, respected trend, and took profits at logical levels instead of pressing for extended moves.
