As we start the final week of 2025, this update reflects how the market has evolved since the holidays, not a change in philosophy. Price has moved, momentum has selectively re-accelerated, and several setups have transitioned from pullback entries into momentum tests or digestion zones. The work now is about distinguishing continuation from exhaustion, and participation from patience.

This is still a market that rewards structure over speed. Some positions are working and approaching targets. Others require confirmation before exposure increases. A few have shifted into observation mode after breaking structure. The objective remains the same: engage only where risk is defined and asymmetric, and step aside when it isn’t.

Execution matters more than conviction here. Let price confirm the next move.

How We’re Executing

  • We act only at defined levels, where downside risk is already known.

  • We avoid the middle. We don’t chase strength. We step aside when structure breaks.

  • Not every dip is a buy. Not every bounce deserves exposure.

  • Cash is a position. Waiting is part of the plan.

Risk Comes First

  • This phase rewards risk control more than conviction.

  • Position sizing matters. Stops matter. Doing nothing matters.

  • Protecting capital now creates optionality later.

Technology - Mega Cap & Platforms

Alphabet GOOG 0.00%↑
Buy pullbacks into 300-303, where prior demand and structure align. A confirmed breakout requires a daily close above 322. Risk is defined below 292. Upside targets remain 315 first, then 322–325, with a broader extension toward 350–370 if momentum re-accelerates.
