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

Goodbye May, Hello June || Goonie Newsletter

Goonie Newsletter (June 2nd - 6th)

Goodbye May, Hello June

Hey,

Key Weekly Performance Stats:

S&P 500: +1.88%
Nasdaq 100: +2.03%
Russel 2000: +1.19%
Bitcoin: -3.07%

Last week, despite some choppy sessions, markets ended the week on a high note. After closing for Memorial Day on May 26, the S&P 500 jumped 2.1% on May 27—snapping a four-day losing streak—after President Trump postponed EU tariffs to July 9. Tech and consumer discretionary stocks led the rally. The momentum carried into May 29, thanks to strong earnings from Nvidia, which posted a 69% revenue surge and briefly surpassed Microsoft in market cap. The S&P 500 dipped modestly on May 28 and May 30, with renewed China tariff concerns and earnings anticipation weighing on sentiment. Still, it finished May up 6.2%—its best month since November 2023.

Economic data was quiet early in the week but picked up on May 30. April’s Core PCE rose just 0.1%, with a year-over-year rate of 2.5%, pointing to easing inflation. Personal income beat expectations, up 0.8%, while spending rose 0.2%, in line with forecasts. However, the Chicago PMI fell to 40.5, signaling manufacturing contraction, and consumer sentiment remained weak at 52.2.

Looking ahead, all eyes will be on the May jobs report due June 6, a key gauge of labor market strength. Trade updates with the EU and China, especially after Trump’s tariff delay, will also be in focus. Investors will watch for Fed commentary, including a speech from Fed Chairman Powell, for any signals on rate policy amid mixed inflation and growth data. As always, stick to your trading plan and respect your risk.

Best,

Thicc Kohrs
