My BEST Trade of The ENTIRE YEAR!

TOTAL GAIN: +$53,310

The best part?! I gave away my reasoning, the entire, and the exit for 100% FREE!!!

This Russell 2000 ($IWM) swing play was discussed and fully broken down in the Goonie Trading Discord. I wasn't the only person who made money. Many Goonie members made a killing!

The Trade

Entry

I created a large (relative to my account size) bullish position on the Small Cap sector, $IWM, when the inflation report came in cool, below expectations, on July 11th. My reasoning was simple: Lower rates means access to cheaper capital. Small businesses need cheap money to survive.

 

Exit 1

When the play went up +400%, I locked in 1/5 of my position (15 of 75 calls) to take all downside risk off the table. At this point, the worst that could happen would be that the play ended breakeven. If that scenario played out, there is a good chance I would also be super embarrassed due to how public I was about this play.

 

Exit 2

I really wanted to ride IWM up to $228, which was an upside gap fill from late 2023. Unfortunately, the market had different plans. I had to take what the market was willing to offer. As soon as the Russell showed weakness, I took my money and said thank you! I can always reenter if things turn around.

 

Exit 1 Return: +$10,290

Exit 2 Return: +$43,020

Total Return:  +$53,310

Back To Back Bangers!

Hey,

Key Weekly Performance Stats:

  • S&P 500: +0.60% (New High)
  • Nasdaq 100: +1.37% (New High)
  • Russel 2000: +0.28%
  • Bitcoin: +0.37% (New High)

Last week, stocks posted modest gains last week as earnings season kicked off and tariff concerns lingered. The Nasdaq rose 1.5%, notching its fifth straight record close on Friday and its 11th all-time high this year. The S&P 500 gained 0.6%, while the Dow slipped 0.3% to finish flat on the week.

Tech led the way—Tesla climbed 3%, and Charles Schwab jumped to a record high after beating earnings expectations. But results were mixed: Netflix fell 5% despite strong numbers. Overall, solid reports from banks and tech helped offset trade policy jitters.

On the economic front, data remained strong. Retail sales beat expectations, CPI rose 2.7% year-over-year, and consumer sentiment hit a five-month high—despite President Trump reviving tariff threats with new 30% duties on Mexico and the EU starting August 1. Industrial production held steady, housing starts met forecasts, and the 10-year Treasury yield dipped to 4.42%. Gold edged up, oil slipped, and bitcoin surged past $123,000 amid fresh crypto regulation news.

Looking ahead, all eyes turn to earnings from the Magnificent Seven, with Alphabet and Tesla leading the lineup. Investors will also watch for S&P flash PMIs, existing home sales, Q2 GDP, and PCE inflation—all of which could shape the Fed’s next move. Fed Chair Powell speaks Tuesday, and markets will be listening closely for signs of either resilience or slowdown. As always, stick to your plan and respect your risk. Godspeed.

 
Best,

Thicc Kohrs
