Tomorrow 2PM: Why I Think a 5-10% Correction is Next


f

 

The S&P 500 has been trapped in a 2-3% range for weeks.

Short interest is climbing to near-record levels.

And my VIX-to-3-month volatility ratio is flashing warning signs that a 5-10% correction is overdue.

Tomorrow at 2PM ET, I'm going live to show you what happens next.

Last week, I closed my VIX call spread for a 111% return.

But based on my volatility analysis, the upside in VIX may be significantly higher if the correction materializes.

I'm actively looking for the next entry.

Here's what I'm watching right now:

Whether Wednesday's selloff has legs or if the market bounces right back into the range.

If defensive sectors start cracking alongside tech, I'll be looking for aggressive bearish entries.

And I'm monitoring my Ghost Print Surveillance Console for any new institutional prints that signal the next big move.

Tomorrow's training will cover:

  • Why my volatility framework says a correction is overdue

  • How I spotted the 111% VIX trade (and why the bigger move may still be ahead)

  • The Squeeze Traps I identified this week on Ford, Lyft, Nvidia, and others

  • What I'm looking for to confirm the selloff has legs

  • When and how to position for aggressive bearish entries

This is critical timing. Register now:

This week alone, I spotted potentially devastating Squeeze Traps on multiple companies.

The market is only now starting to crack.

And my Surveillance Console is showing me exactly where the next move develops.

P.S. — The 111% VIX win validates my approach. But let me be clear: the bigger move may still be ahead. Tomorrow I'll show you what I'm watching and how to position.
