Morning Lineup: 12 New Setups in Bull Territory
At 9:45 AM ET, the algorithm published 12 new option and stock setups across the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 with SPY in a BULL regime and Fear & Greed at 69. AMD led the pack with a score of 80/100 (600C exp 2026-08-28, entry $38.9), followed by UNH at 78/100 (450C exp 2026-08-28, entry $10.74). Five names—TMO, YETI, HBAN, and SCHW—all scored 76/100 with 57% win probability. The remaining six setups (AAPL, ZBRA, DBX, HWC, CSX, KRC) ranged from 70–74 in score. All entries and live results are logged in real time.
Today's Closes: 1 Win, 7 Losses, Mixed Execution
Of 8 positions closed during today's session, HOG delivered the sole winner—a 146.1% return via TARGET_PREMIUM, entered 2026-07-22. The remaining 7 closed at losses: DKS (options, -51.2%), TRI (options, -56%), AXP (stocks, -1.9%), DAL (stocks, -4.3%), RDDT (options, -50.9%), META (options, 0%), and AMD (options, 0%). Six exits triggered via STOP_PREMIUM or STOP; META and AMD both hit the stop on day one. The day underscores the algorithm's willingness to cut positions quickly when thesis breaks, regardless of entry timing.
Running Record and Portfolio Housekeeping
Over the trailing 365 days, the algorithm has closed 881 trades with a 42.5% win rate, a 3.21 profit factor, and an average return of 29.4% per trade (outliers capped at ±150%). Average winners land at +102.4%; average losers at -22.9%. One aged position—WFC (options, -42%, entered 2026-06-18)—was cleared today as part of administrative housekeeping on positions 30+ days old and does not factor into today's session results. See the Morning Brief for context on regime and volatility.
