## Market Sentiment
SPY -0.19%, QQQ -0.54%, VXX +0.66% put today's tape in a bearish regime.
**Regime read:** Bearish. SPY -0.19%, QQQ -0.54%, VXX +0.66%.
## Pushing Profits Game Plan
Today's tape reads **Bearish**. SPY -0.19%, QQQ -0.54%, VXX +0.66% put today's tape in a bearish regime.
**Bullish scenario.** SPY reclaims and holds above 748.92 (calls trigger) with QQQ following through 708.88. First objective 755.65 on SPY; lean into pullbacks that hold the trigger.
**Bearish scenario.** SPY rejects 748.92 and loses 744.76 (puts trigger), QQQ confirming below 701.44. First objective 738.03 on SPY; rallies into the trigger are short setups.
**Chop scenario.** SPY churns between 744.76 and 748.92 with VXX flat. Fade extremes, do not chase mid-range breaks, prioritize defined-risk premium selling.
## Liquidity Matrix Lesson of the Day
### The pre-market high and low matter all day
Pre-market range often defines the regular-session range. Holding above pre-market high = continuation. Losing pre-market low = trend day down. Mark them on your chart before the open every day.
