SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade For 6-11: Bottom-Base Rally Counter TrndToday's counter-trend Bottom-Base Rally pattern suggests the markets may attempt to find a peak and roll over into a downtrend. The normal Bottom-Base Rally pattern is similar to the start of a moderate price base/bottom, then moving into a moderate rally phase. In counter-trend mode this pattern would be inverted - forming a Top and then moving into a downward price trend. I've been warning of the potential of a rollover top type of pattern in the SPY over the past few weeks - but it never really setup/confirmed. I'll be curious to see if this counter-trend pattern, today, sets up some type of big top formation in the SPY/QQQ. It might be related to news as well. Gold and Silver have a Gap-Stall-Revert-FLUSH pattern. This is always an interesting pattern because is suggests price is going to attempt to either gap and trend or stall and revert. My guess is we are looking at more trending in metals today. Platinum is RIPPING higher (PL1!). Because of this, I believe Silver and Gold will attempt to follow Platinum and move to the upside today. BTCUSD is stalling a bit. We'll see if we get any big price move in Bitcoin today. After the big rally over the past few days, it will be interesting to see if BTCUSD reverts downward or continues higher. Overall, today's patterns suggest the markets are seeking direction. Get ready for an exciting day in the markets. Get some. #trading #research #investing #tradingalgos #tradingsignals #cycles #fibonacci #elliotwave #modelingsystems #stocks #bitcoin #btcusd #cryptos #spy #gold #nq #investing #trading #spytrading #spymarket #tradingmarket #stockmarket #silver

How To: Avoid paying Taxes on my Trading Gains?***Make sure to read this through. At the bottom is an email you can fire off to your CPA as well as your funded broker with the right questions to get you started*** In the video above I gave you the thought process and questions that come to me from many people weekly. I want to share with you guys a method you can use which depends fully on weather its availble by your broker or not. The Issue: I am getting payouts from my broker but I dont want to pay taxes on it. What do i do? The Answer: There is no way to AVOID paying taxes but There are some questions you need to ask both your Broker where you have or will have your funded account, as well as ask your CPA if you are using one, which will or will not allow you to move your "GAINS" directly into an investment account without paying an INCOME tax. Bare in mind, the bottom line is that if its possible for you to do this, youll most likely need to set yourself up an an 'entity' like an LLC or an S-Corp. ----------------------------------------- Can you trade through TradingView using a funded account? Yes. Most prop firms (like Apex, My Funded Futures, etc.) allow access to TradingView via third-party routing systems like Rithmic, CQG, or Tradovate. Can you send trading profits directly into an investment account (e.g., with Fidelity or First Fidelity Trust)? Not directly. Most prop firms pay out to you personally via: ACH / PayPal / Wire The payout is treated as income, not capital gains — you’re usually issued a 1099. So short-term capital gains don’t apply here — it’s contractor income. Can you route those funds into an investment or retirement account? Only indirectly, if you: Set up a legal entity (LLC/S-Corp) Prop firm allows payouts to that entity Entity sends funds to a brokerage or retirement account This gives you: Tax management options Ability to fund SEP IRAs, Solo 401ks, or other investment vehicles Business deductions and better income structuring Important: Not all prop firms support this. You must ask. What happens if you just take the payout personally? You’ll owe taxes on the income that year. If it's a large amount and you're not using any tax strategy, this can be a big hit — and you won’t be putting that money to work in a retirement account, which could have deferred or reduced the tax burden. Why do traders want to route funds into investment accounts? To defer taxes To compound gains in tax-advantaged environments To avoid having income hit their personal checking and be immediately taxed without structure To separate business income from personal finances. Who should you talk to? A CPA who understands prop firm payouts + entity structuring The prop firm support team Your investment account provider (e.g., Fidelity, First Fidelity Trust) If You’re Using Your Own Capital (Not Prop Firm Capital) When you're trading from a cash account funded with your own post-tax money (like a personal account at Tradestation, Fidelity, Interactive Brokers, etc.), you're in a completely different tax situation compared to a funded prop account. Im trading with a CASH ACCOUNT and this money was already taxed. Why am i paying more tax? 1. You’re Right: That Money Was Already Taxed If you earned money through a job, business, crypto sale, whatever — and then you funded your trading account with it — yes, that money has already been taxed as income, capital gains, or whatever the original source required. But… 2. Trading Gains Are Still Taxable — Separately Once that taxed money is used to generate more money via trading, those gains are now a new taxable event. Here's why: The IRS doesn’t look at “double taxation” in terms of the original dollar — it taxes the gain on that dollar. For example: You fund your account with $10,000 (already taxed) You trade it up to $15,000 You now owe taxes on the $5,000 gain, not the $10,000 you started with So no, you're not being taxed twice on the same dollar — you're being taxed on new earnings generated from that dollar. 3. Type of Tax Depends on Holding Period Day Trading / Short-Term (< 1 year): Taxed as ordinary income, same as your paycheck (could be 10–37%) Long-Term Gains (1+ year): Taxed at long-term capital gains rates (typically 0%, 15%, or 20%) This only applies if you’re not trading inside a retirement account (IRA, 401k, etc.). So What’s the Advantage in Routing Gains Into an Investment Account? This is where people try to get clever.They want to avoid realizing gains in their personal account because: It may bump them into a higher tax bracket It may trigger estimated tax payments It might disqualify them from certain tax credits So the idea is: “Can I send the profits somewhere else (like an IRA, trust, or investment vehicle) so I don’t get taxed now?” Answer: Only if the gains were made inside that tax-advantaged account to begin with. You can't trade in a regular brokerage account and then “move” those gains into an IRA to defer tax. That’s not how tax shelters work — they only protect gains earned inside them. Does Being Self-Funded Change the Tax Situation? Scenario = You fund trading with post-tax dollars ---- Not taxed again on that base Scenario = You generate gains from trading ---- Yes, new taxes on new profits Scenario = You want to avoid immediate taxation ---- Can't defer taxes just by moving profits Scenario = You trade inside an IRA/401k ---- Gains tax-deferred or tax-free Scenario = You trade through a prop firm ---- Income tax, no capital gains involved ----------Here is an email to get you started. Send this to your CPA and your Funded account broker---------- Questions to Ask Your Prop Firm (If Using Funded Accounts) Do you allow payouts to a legal entity (LLC or S-Corp)? Can payouts be directed to an investment firm or custodian? Can the account be held in my entity’s name? Do you issue 1099s for entity payouts, or only for individuals? Are there limits or fees for routing payouts to a business or trust account?

GME COLLAPSE - NET SELLOFF - MARKET ANALYSISGameStop (GME) is dropping in after-hours trading following its $1.3 billion convertible senior notes offering, which investors see as potential dilution. Similarly, Cloudflare (NET) is also falling due to concerns over its $1.75 billion convertible debt offering, which could impact shareholder value. On the flip side, Oracle (ORCL) surged after reporting strong Q4 earnings, with cloud infrastructure revenue expected to grow over 70% in fiscal 2026. This could provide a tailwind for the broader cloud sector. The market’s pullback today was much needed, with many stocks retesting key breakout zones
