We spent most of August traveling with our daughter, bringing extended family along to our usual vacation spots, afterwards we squeezed in a trip to Normandy, France for one week. </p><p>My wife and I both studied history with a focus on World War II, but standing on those grounds brings a weight no book can replicate. Seeing the sheer scale of what the Greatest Generation endured to defeat tyranny and defend freedom is profoundly humbling. They gave everything for a cause far greater than themselves, securing the lives and liberties we take for granted today.</p><p>As the son of a wartime Vietnam veteran, that appreciation runs deep. It is easy to get wrapped up in our daily routine, our ambitions, and the immediate noise of the world, forgetting the men and women who carried the true cost of our freedom. Their sacrifice, along with the sacrifice of every veteran who served, deserves to be remembered every single day. My sincere respect goes out to any veteran or service member who follows these NQ Trade Plans.  Thank you for your service.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

rule.<br></p><p>With that perspective in mind, it is time to turn our focus back to the markets.</p><p>Here is the trade plan for tomorrow:<br><br>This is a shortened plan. I will begin providing NQ Trade Plan Recaps sometime soon.<br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.

I enjoy providing recaps, but while prioritizing the lightning fast summer days. I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.  I will be away from my home trading desk for the majority of August and will update the NQ plans as often as I can, aiming for at least 2 per week. <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.

I enjoy providing recaps, but while prioritizing the lightning fast summer days. I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.  I will be away from my home trading desk for the majority of August and will update the NQ plans as often as I can, aiming for at least 2 per week. <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.   Of course it is still a work in progress and I hope these trade plans can help you as well.<br><br><br>As always, none of this is final advice, and is strictly for entertainment only purposes only:<br><br>Tomorrow&#8217;s levels and Setups:<br><br><strong>Supports: </strong>29274 (major), 29254, 29239, 29216 (major), 29197, 29169, 29153 (major) (Bear Objective 1), 29124 (major), 29101, 29084, 29061, 29037 (major), 29015, 28994, 28978 (major) (Bear Objective 2), 28948, 28930, 28907 (major) (Bear Objective 3), 28874, 28849, 28825 (major), 28806, 28782, 28763 (major) (Bear Objective 4), 28742, 28720, 28708 (major), 28690, 28674, 28658, 28639, 28620 (major), 28595, 28577, 28564, 28544, 28521 (major) (Bear Objective 5), 28500, 28474 (major), 28450, 28432, 28410, 28382 (major), 28361, 28346, 28324 (major) (Bear Objective 6), 28305, 28276, 28248, 28225 (major) (Bear Objective 7), 28213, 28203, 28193, 28179, 28165, 28151, 28135 (major), 28118, 28100 (major) (Bear Objective 8), 28088, 28074, 28057, 28042, 28030 (major), 28016, 28004, 27996, 27988, 27978 (major), 27967, 27954, 27943, 27932, 27919 (major) (Bear Objective 9), 27902, 27884, 27871 (major), 27861, 27849, 27836, 27820 (major) (Bear Objective 10), 27806, 27797, 27777, 27763, 27752 (major), 27738, 27728, 27717, 27704, 27690 (major) (Bear Objective 11), 27675, 27662, 27649 (major), 27639, 27626, 27608</p><p><strong>Resistances: </strong>&#9;29291, 29308, 29335 (major) (Bull Objective 1), 29353, 29371 (major), 29388, 29402, 29417 (major), 29434, 29454, 29473 (major) (Bull Objective 2), 29499, 29520, 29545, 29564 (major), 29588, 29612, 29631 (major), 29662, 29685 (major) (Bull Objective 3), 29707, 29736, 29762 (major), 29777, 29802, 29829, 29854 (major), 29870, 29889 (major) (Bull Objective 4), 29903, 29921, 29939, 29951 (major), 29970, 29988, 30008, 30030 (major), 30047, 30065, 30084, 30099, 30114 (major) (Bull Objective 5), 30128, 30145, 30156, 30170 (major), 30187, 30205, 30216, 30238 (major) (Bull Objective 6), 30256, 30278, 30302 (major), 30319, 30339, 30357, 30371, 30394 (major), 30409, 30434, 30453, 30467, 30484, 30506, 30524 (major) (Bull Objective 7), 30543, 30562, 30587 (major) (Bull Objective 8), 30616, 30637, 30667, 30694, 30712 (major), 30730, 30750, 30789 (major) (Bull Objective 9), 30816, 30850 (major), 30884, 30914, 30939, 30960, 30980 (major), 31004, 31017, 31032, 31051, 31077, 31098 (major) (Bull Objective 10), 31117, 31139, 31169, 31191, 31208, 31224, 31239 (major), 31255, 31270, 31285</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://vontrades.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading Von Trades!

The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.

I enjoy providing recaps, but while prioritizing the lightning fast summer days. I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.  I will be away from my home trading desk for the majority of August and will update the NQ plans as often as I can, aiming for at least 2 per week. <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.   Of course it is still a work in progress and I hope these trade plans can help you as well.<br><br><br>As always, none of this is final advice, and is strictly for entertainment only purposes only:<br><br>Tomorrow&#8217;s levels and Setups:<br><br><strong>Supports: </strong>28269 (major), 28245, 28227, 28205, 28177 (major), 28156, 28141, 28119 (major) (Bear Objective 1), 28100, 28071, 28043, 28020 (major) (Bear Objective 2), 28008, 27998, 27988, 27974, 27960, 27946, 27930 (major), 27913, 27895 (major) (Bear Objective 3), 27883, 27869, 27852, 27837, 27825 (major), 27811, 27799, 27791, 27783, 27773 (major), 27762, 27749, 27738, 27727, 27714 (major) (Bear Objective 4), 27697, 27679, 27666 (major), 27656, 27644, 27631, 27615 (major) (Bear Objective 5), 27601, 27592, 27572, 27558, 27547 (major), 27533, 27523, 27512, 27499, 27485 (major) (Bear Objective 6), 27470, 27457, 27444 (major), 27434, 27421, 27403, 27389, 27376 (major) (Bear Objective 7), 27359, 27341, 27322, 27304, 27289, 27278, 27260, 27239 (major) (Bear Objective 8), 27221, 27199 (major), 27175 (major) (Bear Objective 9), 27152, 27137, 27124, 27108 (major), 27093, 27065, 27044 (major), 27022, 26997, 26979 (major) (Bear Objective 10), 26959, 26938, 26912, 26894 (major), 26873, 26845, 26827 (major), 26806, 26781, 26756 (major) (Bear Objective 11), 26737, 26721, 26703, 26689, 26676&#9;</p><p><strong>Resistances: </strong>&#9;28295, 28316 (major), 28339, 28359, 28372, 28390, 28415 (major) (Bull Objective 1), 28434, 28453, 28469, 28485, 28503 (major), 28515, 28537, 28558 (major) (Bull Objective 2), 28577, 28601, 28620 (major) (Bull Objective 3), 28644, 28669, 28702 (major), 28725, 28743 (major) (Bull Objective 4), 28773, 28789, 28810, 28832 (major) (Bull Objective 5), 28856, 28879, 28896, 28919, 28948 (major) (Bull Objective 6), 28964, 28992, 29011 (major), 29034, 29049 (major) (Bull Objective 7), 29069, 29086, 29103, 29130 (major) (Bull Objective 8), 29148, 29166 (major), 29183, 29197, 29212 (major), 29229, 29249, 29268 (major), 29294, 29315, 29340, 29359 (major), 29383, 29407, 29426 (major), 29457, 29480 (major) (Bull Objective 9), 29502, 29531, 29557 (major) (Bull Objective 10), 29572, 29597, 29624, 29649, 29665, 29684 (major) (Bull Objective 11), 29698, 29716, 29734, 29746 (major), 29765, 29783, 29803, 29825 (major), 29842, 29860, 29879, 29894, 29909 (major) (Bull Objective 12), 29923, 29940, 29951, 29965 (major), 29982, 30000, 30011, 30033 (major) (Bull Objective 13), 30051, 30073, 30097 (major), 30114, 30134, 30152, 30166, 30189 (major), 30204, 30229, 30248</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://vontrades.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading Von Trades!

I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.   <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.

I enjoy providing recaps, but while prioritizing the lightning fast summer days. I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.   <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.   Of course it is still a work in progress and I hope these trade plans can help you as well.<br><br><br>As always, none of this is final advice, and is strictly for entertainment only purposes only:<br><br>Tomorrow&#8217;s levels and Setups:<br><br><strong>Supports: </strong>28299, 28279 (major), 28256, 28235 (major), 28209, 28185, 28167 (major) (Bear Objective 1), 28145, 28117, 28096, 28081 (major) (Bear Objective 2), 28059, 28045, 28011, 27983, 27960, 27948, 27938, 27928, 27914 (major) (Bear Objective 3), 27900, 27886, 27870, 27853 (major), 27835, 27823, 27809, 27792, 27777 (major) (Bear Objective 4), 27765, 27751, 27739, 27731, 27723, 27710 (major) (Bear Objective 5), 27699, 27689, 27678, 27667, 27654 (major), 27637, 27619, 27606 (major) (Bear Objective 6), 27596, 27584, 27571, 27555 (major), 27541, 27532, 27512, 27498, 27487 (major), 27473, 27463, 27452, 27439 (major), 27425 (major) (Bear Objective 7), 27410, 27397, 27384 (major), 27374, 27361, 27343, 27329, 27316, 27299 (major) (Bear Objective 8), 27281, 27262, 27244, 27229 (major), 27218, 27200, 27179, 27161, 27139 (major), 27115 (major) (Bear Objective 9), 27092, 27077, 27064, 27048 (major), 27033, 27005, 26984 (major), 26962, 26937, 26919 (major) (Bear Objective 10), 26899, 26878, 26852, 26834 (major), 26813, 26785, 26767 (major), 26746, 26721, 26696 (major) (Bear Objective 11), 26677&#9;&#9;&#9;</p><p><strong>Resistances: </strong>&#9;28312, 28330, 28355, 28374 (major) (Bull Objective 1), 28393, 28409, 28425, 28443 (major), 28455, 28477, 28498 (major) (Bull Objective 2), 28517, 28541, 28560, 28584, 28609, 28642 (major) (Bull Objective 3), 28665, 28683, 28713, 28729, 28750 (major), 28772 (major), 28796, 28819, 28836 (major), 28859, 28888 (major) (Bull Objective 4), 28904, 28932, 28951 (major), 28974, 28989 (major) (Bull Objective 5), 29009, 29026, 29043, 29070 (major) (Bull Objective 6), 29088, 29106 (major), 29123, 29137, 29152 (major), 29169, 29189, 29208 (major), 29234, 29255, 29280, 29299 (major), 29323, 29347, 29366 (major), 29397, 29420 (major) (Bull Objective 7), 29442, 29471, 29497 (major) (Bull Objective 8), 29512, 29537, 29564, 29589, 29605, 29624 (major) (Bull Objective 9), 29638, 29656, 29674, 29686 (major), 29705, 29723, 29743, 29765 (major), 29782, 29800, 29819, 29834, 29849 (major) (Bull Objective 10), 29863, 29880, 29891, 29905 (major), 29922, 29940, 29951, 29973 (major) (Bull Objective 11), 29991, 30013, 30037 (major), 30054, 30074, 30092, 30106, 30129 (major), 30144, 30169, 30188, 30202, 30219, 30241, 30259 (major) (Bull Objective 12)</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://vontrades.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading Von Trades!

I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.   <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.

The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.

I enjoy providing recaps, but while prioritizing the lightning fast summer days. I feel its best to skip to the main trade plan for now.   <br><br>To the loyal subscribers, thank you being patient.<br><br>To old and new readers you may notice something about the setups and trade plans, they are repetitive.  The setups are essentially the same but at different levels.  There is always a point where I will not trade above and below.  Those levels change daily.  There are places where I will add on strength, There are places where I will short a breakdown.  There are more areas where I will observe for a false breakout or breakdown.  The areas are what change, but the plays are always the same. This is what some may refer to as the boring part of trading.  While I do tend to get excited and emotional at time when I enter a trade.  It is systematic.  The trades are always the same, managed the same, exited the same and this is what keeps trading non-emotional for me.  It is easier said then done, and has taken me years to get to a point where I can humbly say I am less emotional then I was in the past.   Of course it is still a work in progress and I hope these trade plans can help you as well.<br><br><br>As always, none of this is final advice, and is strictly for entertainment only purposes only:<br><br>Tomorrow&#8217;s levels and Setups:<br><br><strong>Supports: </strong>29893 (major), 29873, 29856, 29832, 29810, 29792, 29770 (major) (Bear Objective 1), 29759, 29741, 29724, 29710, 29699 (major), 29682, 29668, 29653, 29632 (major) (Bear Objective 2), 29619, 29601, 29584, 29562, 29542 (major), 29524, 29505, 29493, 29475, 29457, 29443 (major), 29424, 29408, 29383 (major), 29356, 29331 (major) (Bear Objective 3), 29310, 29290, 29261 (major) (Bear Objective 4), 29230, 29207, 29174 (major) (Bear Objective 5), 29149, 29133, 29117, 29099, 29074, 29053, 29027 (major), 29008, 28988, 28971, 28956, 28942, 28925, 28907, 28883 (major), 28862, 28845, 28828, 28808, 28793 (major) (Bear Objective 6), 28770, 28751, 28723, 28707 (major), 28678, 28655, 28638 (major) (Bear Objective 7), 28615, 28591, 28569, 28548 (major), 28532, 28516, 28493, 28461 (major) (Bear Objective 8), 28428, 28403, 28379, 28360, 28336, 28317 (major), 28296, 28274, 28262, 28244, 28228 (major), 28212, 28193, 28174, 28149 (major) (Bear Objective 9), 28131, 28118, 28098, 28075, 28054, 28028, 28004, 27986 (major) (Bear Objective 10), 27964&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;</p><p><strong>Resistances: &#9;</strong>29911, 29925, 29948, 29963, 29988 (major) (Bull Objective 1), 30007, 30021, 30038, 30060 (major), 30078, 30097, 30116, 30141 (major) (Bull Objective 2), 30170, 30191, 30221, 30248, 30266 (major), 30284, 30304, 30343 (major) (Bull Objective 3), 30370, 30404 (major), 30438, 30468, 30493, 30514, 30534 (major), 30558, 30571, 30586, 30605, 30631, 30652 (major) (Bull Objective 4), 30671, 30693, 30723, 30745, 30762, 30778, 30794 (major), 30809, 30824, 30839, 30850, 30860, 30874 (major), 30895, 30912, 30922, 30939 (major) (Bull Objective 5), 30957, 30964, 30978, 30998, 31017, 31034 (major), 31050, 31066, 31082 (major) (Bull Objective 6), 31107, 31130, 31155, 31180 (major) (Bull Objective 7), 31194, 31212, 31230, 31248, 31263 (major) (Bull Objective 8)&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;&#9;</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://vontrades.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading Von Trades!
