>>>The 10 AM secret to targeting $500 per day!<<<
If you’ve ever had a clean trade wrecked by a sudden Fed announcement — you’re not alone.
That’s exactly what happened on one of our 60 Minute Income trades on Wednesday. We had a strong setup. The technicals looked great. And then… Fed Chair Jerome Powell opened his mouth.
Bam. Market dropped hard. Trade got smoked.
Here’s the thing…
These trades are built for intraday income — they’re fast, efficient and usually give us a great risk-reward window.
But they’re not immune to macro surprises, especially when they come mid-trade.
The good news? You’ve got options… And I’m not just talking about contracts.
Here’s how I manage it:
🟡 Exit early when appropriate.
Before the Fed announcement Wednesday, I gave a heads-up that traders could take a small profit on our 60 Minute Income play and sit out the volatility. That’s not a sign of weakness — it’s smart capital protection ahead of a big catalyst event.
🟡 Know your catalyst schedule.
Every time you enter a short-term trade, check the economic calendar. If the Chair of the Fed is scheduled to speak, CPI is dropping or big earnings are coming… adjust your plan accordingly.
🟡 Volatility isn’t the enemy — randomness is.
Volatility can be your friend, if you’re positioned properly. But random macro spikes? That’s just luck — or bad luck.
And I prefer skill over luck every day of the week.
Look — not every trade is going to work. We’re playing probabilities here. But when the setup is strong and the market context is stable, the edge is real.
We’ve seen this play out dozens of times: the 60 Minute Income Trades win (84.3% win rate on 102 closed trades from Feb. 18, 2025-July 30, 2025) because they’re built for precision.
But when the Fed steps in, sometimes the smartest move is stepping aside — or grabbing profits early.
So if you got clipped by Powell this week? Shake it off. There’ll be another setup tomorrow.
And with a little timing awareness, you’ll be ready to take full advantage of it.
Apex Indicator: Apple (AAPL)
The markets were doing fine, and then Powell sent everyone scurrying, and things are clearly in the red for now.
But that’s why using the Apex Indicator can help. If we can see some stability in Apex while the market is bearish, it can give us a hint at the next big mover.
So, is anything holding up as the market has turned sour?
Yes, Apple (AAPL). Here’s the chart:
We have a blue up arrow a few weeks ago, and sideways action since then but a little pop this morning on earnings before it was dragged down with most everything else.
Earnings were positive, which could keep the stock relatively stable. If AAPL holds up in a very overbought market, we could possibly see another blue arrow and another push upward when things bounce back.
A target for AAPL would be up around the $224.23 level. A stop could be down at the $183.65 level.
Remember, we enter these trades using wrap orders, and for more training on how to place wraps… go here!
