All of today's market moving news from premarket summarised in one short report
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 12:19:27MAJOR NEWS: WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM: TRUMP SPEECH ON TRACK FOR 8:30AM ET START Bloomberg: Japan’s second-largest bank, Sumitomo Mitsui, says it plans to rebuild its JGB holdings after the rout and could double the portfolio from about $67B once yields settle. EARNINGS: JNJ: Adj. EPS: $2.46 (Est. $2.44) ; UP +21% YoY Sales: $24.56B (Est. $24.15B) ; UP +9% YoY Innovative Medicine: $15.76B (Est. $15.4B) ; +10% YoY MedTech: $8.80B; UP +8% YoY FY26 Guidance Sales: $100B to $101B (Est. $98.9B) Adj. EPS: $11.43 to $11.63 (Est. $11.49) Adj. Operating EPS: $11.28 to $11.48 Operating Margin outlook: 31.5% Expects operating income growth to be stronger in 2H’26 than 1H’26 NFLX: Multiple firms lowered price targets but kept Buy / Outperform ratings, pointing to solid Q4 execution, steady revenue trends, and guidance that largely met expectations. The common thread is higher content and operating costs pressuring margins, not demand weakness. Revenue: $12.05B (Est. $12B) ; +18% YoY EPS: $0.56 (Est. $0.55) Oper Income: $2.96B; +30% YoY Oper Margin: 24.5%; +2.3 ppts YoY FCF: $1.87B (Est. $1.46B) ; UP +36% YoY Q1’26 Guide EPS: $0.76 (Est. $0.81) Revenue: $12.16B (Est. $12.2B) Operating Income: $3.91B (Est. $4.18B) Operating Margin: 32.1% (Est. 34.4%) FY26 Outlook Revenue: $50.7B to $51.7B (Est. $50.96B) Operating Margin: 31.5% (Est. 32.4%) Free Cash Flow: ~ $11B (Est. $11.93B) Ads: expects ad revenue to roughly double vs. 2025 Netflix says it’s still under 10% of TV time in major markets, and only about 7% of the addressable market for consumer + ad spend. Netflix ended 2025 with 325M+ subscribers, up almost 8% YoY. Additionally, NFLX plans to raise programming spend ~10% in 2026 and expects ad revenue to double this year. NETFLIX SAYS ITS AD REVENUE COULD ROUGHLY DOUBLE IN 2026 Netflix says it will pause buybacks to accumulate cash ahead of the pending Warner Bros deal MAG7: NVDA - “Nvidia GPUs are in almost every cloud. And if you’re trying to rent GPUs these days, it’s incredibly hard. Spot prices for GPU rentals are going up, not just for the latest generation, but even for GPUs that are two generations old.” NVDA - CEO Jensen Huang is planning a China trip later this month. AMZN - Evercore ISI reiterates AMZN at Outperform, PT 335. "We hosted our Amazon Fulfillment check-in. Our takeaway remains constructive and consistent with our AMZN Outperform rating. The newest update advances the fulfillment narrative on three dimensions. (1) The unit-cost curve remains meaningfully improved versus 2021, with an updated endpoint through 3Q25, while a modest rebound in cost structure in the most recent quarters underscores that labor and last-mile freight costs are becoming the next swing factors. (2) The network is shifting from “regionalization as routing” to “regionalization-by-design,” with sortation increasingly embedded in newer FC formats to reduce touchpoints and improve throughput. (3) Outbound and last-mile infrastructure is becoming increasingly sophisticated (mega sortation hubs, smaller regional sortation hubs, delivery-station automation, and a larger station footprint including rural formats), reinforcing Amazon’s ability to lower cost and reduce reliance on external shipping partners over time. META - CTO says the company’s newest AI models are “very good,” and that Meta Superintelligence Labs delivered its first key AI models internally in January. OTHER COMPANIES: DRONE COMAPNIES - US COMM. SEC. LUTNICK ON DRONES: “These things are going to end—drones and robots made in China. ONDS - Stifel rieterates buy, PT at 18. upbeat after investor day highlights strong Autonomous Systems outlook, lifted 2026 revenue guidance, and early momentum in military drone space. OKLO - BofA upgrades to Buy from neutral, raises PT to 127 from 111. "We upgrade Oklo to Buy from Neutral following a firm, binding agreement with Meta to develop a phased ~1.2 GW advanced nuclear campus. The deal includes customer prepayments that fund early development ahead of final power purchase agreements, and while the megawatt contribution is modest, it provides tangible proof of execution and counterparty commitment. As argued in our Year Ahead Note, investors are increasingly looking for tangible evidence advanced nuclear is moving from concept to execution, and we think this agreement provides exactly that. We continue to favor Oklo’s business model and see it as the most levered public small modular reactor name to data-center demand (~14 GW disclosed pipeline). Meta’s willingness to commit capital years ahead of delivery (before interconnect, a signed power purchase agreement, or licenses) underscores the importance of nuclear as AI and data-center demand accelerate." GME -CEO Ryan Cohen bought another 500,000 shares on Jan. 20, 2026 at an average price of $21.12, worth about $10.6M. OTHER NEWS: BESSENT - Denmark’s Treasury holdings are irrelevant by country; he’s not concerned about any Treasury sell-off tied to Greenland. Says free trade should be fair trade, rebalancing must continue, and growth is the only way out of the debt mountain. US and Switzerland are set to start formal talks in Bern in the first half of February to lock in a final trade deal that would cut US levies on Swiss goods to 15% from 39%. Switzerland’s side includes a $200B investment pledge & easier access for some US farm goods. US Energy Secretary in Davos: Venezuela oil output can RISE 30% from current 900,000 bpd in short- to mid-term - Reuters Citadel's Ken Griffin: "The area of recklessness is the spending of govt. around the world, all spending well beyond their means... The world needs a savior & the hope is that AI is the savior that we need for productivity." IEA lifted its 2026 oil demand growth forecast again, now +930k bpd vs +860k prior, citing a stabilizing economy. It still sees supply ahead of demand, projecting a 3.69 mbpd surplus in 2026. PENTAGON REPORTEDLY HAS NOT BEEN ASKED TO PLAN GREENLAND INVASION - NYT LUTNICK: US GDP GROWTH TO EXCEED 5% IN FIRST QUARTER, LUTNICK: 6% GROWTH POSSIBLE FOR US IN 2026 IF FED CUTS RATES USTR GREER SAYS HIGH LIKELIHOOD THAT HE AND BESSENT MEET WITH THEIR CHINESE COUNTERPARTS BEFORE APRIL - FOX NEWS submitted by /u/TearRepresentative56 [link] [comments]
[ES Process] If you have to look too hard, it’s not there.
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 09:07:41https://preview.redd.it/6r5nv8jq4oeg1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c19a98783e0d32ed1df09536e8415ec5f3cd915f I usually post about the "process" in abstract terms. Today, I want to apply that mindset to a practical example on $ES. After 15 years in the markets, the most expensive lesson I’ve learned is that simplicity isn't the starting point—it’s the finish line. If a setup doesn't jump off the chart with the crystalline clarity of this example, it simply isn’t there. The biggest enemy of a trader isn't the market; it's boredom. We are wired to believe that more effort equals more reward. In trading, it’s the opposite. The hardest part of this business is sitting on your hands. We feel productive when we click, but true productivity is found in the trades you don't take. If you find yourself zooming in, adding indicators, or "convincing" yourself that a level might hold, you are manufacturing a trade to avoid the discomfort of doing nothing. You are trying to trade by imagination, not by design. Pre-Click Protocol Here is how I filtered this recent $ES setup: Bias (M15): The primary trend was clearly bullish. No interpretation needed. The Event (PDL Sweep): Price dipped below the Previous Day Low. It was a clean, undeniable grab of liquidity. The Trigger (The Recovery): I don't enter on "hope" at the bottom. The signal is the confirmed recovery of the level. Once price reclaimed the PDL, the thesis was validated. If a setup is opaque, skip it. If it requires a complex explanation to "make sense," it’s probably a trap. Your job isn't to be a market prophet; it's to be a disciplined executor of a simple checklist. This setup was 100% compliant with my Pre-Click Protocol. No compliance, no trade. It’s that boring, and it has to be. Complexity is an alibi. submitted by /u/Low_Step6444 [link] [comments]

So I’m reasonably successful but to this day I can’t stop the extreme highs I feel from wins and the extreme lows of losses, is this just my personality type?
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 00:43:55So I have a core strategy I’ve been trading that has been going well and is consistent, it’s been several months and yet I keep getting emotionally super high and super low during winning/losing days. Winning days I’m looking up Ferraris online and researching Rolex watches. Then when I have a losing day my mind immediately goes to- “that’s it, the run is over, my strategy won’t work anymore, will me and my family be on food stamps next month?” And the thing is, I have a six figure account ($125,000) and only utilizing 2% of my account per single trade (I only trade one set up everyday.) so it’s not like I’m risking half of my account and “betting it all on black” but yet I still stress. Are any of you well balanced emotionally? Like when you win do you just shrug your shoulder? And likewise, when you lose do you just shrug your shoulders? submitted by /u/No-Mongoose5650 [link] [comments]

• Why do so many people quit day trading?
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 02:37:32I’m genuinely curious and not trying to bash day trading or hype it up. I see a lot of people start day trading and then quit within months (or even weeks), and I want to understand why from people who’ve actually been through it. If you quit day trading: • Was it psychological (stress, discipline, emotions)? • Was it money-related (losses, inconsistent income)? • Lack of time, bad expectations, strategy issues? • Or did you realize it just wasn’t for you? And for those who stuck with it, what do you think causes most people to fail or quit? Looking for honest experiences—not motivational quotes or “just work harder” answers. Thanks. submitted by /u/DoubleRRBenny [link] [comments]
Poor P/L management
Tue, 20 Jan 2026 22:28:28I am overly disappointed in myself to be quite frank, ive been following this sub for a long time and figured feedback is always a good thing no matter how it is received, I am having lots of trouble managing losses, seems like Everytime I end up putting consecutive wins together I manage to blow an account within a day, wiping out a week or two worth of gains, it’s been a consistent theme throughout my trading “career” to have a steady stream of wins only to have 1 or 2 bad days wipe the account clean It’s worth mentioning I decided to get a P&L tracker today after realizing I need a visual instead of sticking my head in the sand, the frustration is part of my reasoning for posting For reference I cleaned slate and started again this month following a plan using ATR and historical vol to determine reasonably priced contracts given current vol paired with basic supply and demand channels to help mark entries yet I keep clinging on too losers through exits. the managerial side of losing is something I obviously am not getting down, any words of advice for someone who’s trying to get better at managing a loss or any take aways from this brief weekly overview? Happy to provide more info on strategies being used and discuss possible oversights submitted by /u/akaraz_9 [link] [comments]

Trading doesn’t fail people. The bill does. And the timeline lies.
Tue, 20 Jan 2026 20:43:29I treated trading like a job. With an apprenticeship mindset. In most professions, nobody expects you to be competent in three months. If you start a real apprenticeship, three years of training is normal before you become truly useful. Electricians, mechanics, developers, finance jobs. Everyone accepts that there is a learning curve and that you pay your “tuition” with time. But in trading, people act like getting rich in 90 days is the baseline. I honestly laugh sometimes when I read posts like: “I started trading three months ago and I’m already making insane money.” Yes, exceptions exist. They always do. But pretending that this is reality for most people is fantasy. To put it in football terms: if you genuinely pull that off, you are a Lamine Yamal, Messi, Ronaldo type outlier. A once-in-a-generation anomaly. And let’s be honest, there are not many of those. Some would argue there are basically none, except the people telling the story themselves. The reality is way less glamorous. Trading isn’t hard because it is complicated. Trading is hard because it’s expensive long before it ever pays you back. It took me 2 years and 96 days to become consistent. Not a lucky month. Not a hot streak. Real, repeatable results. And during that time I wasn’t just “learning price action”. I was paying. Here’s the cost breakdown, because people love to ignore this part: • \~€4,000 on software and market data alone (not signals, not hype, just tools + data) • \~€10,000 on prop firm evaluations, resets, funded account fees • \~€16,000 on two private coachings Total: ~€30,000 invested before trading stopped taking money from me and started paying me back. No overnight success story. No “I flipped $500 into six figures”. Just years of paying for mistakes, screen time, and clarity. And here’s the part beginners hate hearing: Trading is brutally honest. There is no boss to blame. No coworkers to hide behind. No guaranteed paycheck. No one coming to save you when you mess up. You compete against some of the smartest, most capitalized minds in the world. Institutions, market makers, pros, quants. These are the people who actually move the market. That’s why this job feels so hard. You are not “beating the market”. You are trying to survive long enough to earn a place in it. So if you are not willing to pay for: • good data • proper software • blown accounts • time without income • education before results this path will grind you down. This post is not meant to discourage anyone. It’s meant to filter expectations. Because the real question isn’t: “Do you want to trade?” It’s: Are you willing to finance becoming a trader long enough to survive the phase where nothing works yet? A sentence that stuck with me: Trading is the hardest job to make easy money. Have a good evening. 🦭 submitted by /u/Dazzling_Ad_6034 [link] [comments]
Don’t compare yourself to other traders
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 14:28:05It’s easy to look at someone else’s results and feel behind. Different account sizes, different time in the market, different goals. Comparing paths usually creates pressure, not clarity. I’ve noticed progress makes more sense when I only compare myself to where I was before. Same person, same context, just slightly better or worse decisions then yesterday. The only person you should compare yourself to is the you of yesterday. submitted by /u/roflcakeVORTEX [link] [comments]
At what point do you actually start scaling size?
Tue, 20 Jan 2026 11:45:13I’ve been going back and forth on this and wanted some outside opinions. This month has been the cleanest I’ve had (live account). Went on an insane green streak that ended when I went breakeven on Friday. I’ve stuck to the same rules the whole time (my biggest rule being 1 trade per day) and haven’t had any real drawdowns. Normally this is where I mess it up. In the past, once things felt under control, I’d start doing more. Trade longer, increase size, convince myself I was just pressing a system that was working. It almost always ended with me giving a chunk back. This time I haven’t touched size at all, even though part of me feels like I should. It finally feels repeatable, and I don’t want to be the one who breaks it. At the same time, not scaling feels like I might just be avoiding risk instead of managing it. So Im curious how people here actually handle this. How long do you wait before scaling once things start working? Do you use a fixed number of trades, time, or just go by feel? submitted by /u/ConclusionBudget4182 [link] [comments]

What trading rule do you break the most?
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 06:48:43For me it’s trading after I’ve taken a few losses. It’s hard to step away, specially if the losses were your setup. Locking myself out of my trading has definitely helped, but I still a struggle when emotions are high. Curious what you are all struggling with submitted by /u/PrecisionTraderTech [link] [comments]
ES Futures — ABC Pattern Playing Out Level to Level
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 12:17:22This chart is a textbook example of the ABC pattern and why levels matter. We broke the 6847 demand, then got the clean retest from below. That failure was the trigger. From there, price continued lower straight into the next demand at 6820 — clean, level to level. The structure is clear on the chart: Break → retest → continuation. Now the focus is simple. If 6820 can’t hold, the next downside levels are 6771, then 6712. No indicators driving decisions here. Just structure, supply/demand, and patience. In this kind of volatility, this is how you stay on the right side of the move submitted by /u/ALPHAtradingpro [link] [comments]

Creating your own strategy
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 03:11:31I’ve watched dozens of videos on strategies and recently found one that was simple and I stuck with it for a few weeks. Its winrate wasnt the greatest around 40% and it was a NY session focused trade that didnt have the proper setup the majority of the days. I did some more researching about the guy I learned the strat from and a lot of people said he is just another fraud guru. I’m sick of running around looking for the “next best strat” Anyone here have their own strat they made completely themselves? If so what was your experience building it? On the other hand anyone here recommend a strat that actually works with a high win %? submitted by /u/Thick_Percentage964 [link] [comments]

The market for the last 6mo? Good, Bad , ugly?
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 09:45:14This question is for those who have been trading for a few years. How has the market conditions been since the summer for you ? Have we seen typical style trading days or has it all be abnormal ? I started studying in spring and then seriously sim trading everyday in early June. And live trading in the late fall. It seems to me that I have seen some crazy up days, crazy down, slow ups and downs lots of sideways and some pretty erratic days. Is this what it seems like to you ? I’m just trying to gauge my experience(lack of). As I continue my journey. submitted by /u/Awkward-Amount-1255 [link] [comments]
Built a rules-based trading journal (early alpha) — looking for feedback
Wed, 21 Jan 2026 13:13:18I posted a couple of days ago asking if a simple trading journal that didn't turn into another subscription dashboard would be of interest. From that feedback I’ve built an early alpha of a small trading journal but focused purely on rules and discipline, not signals or analytics. The idea is simple: you define your own trading rules, log trades, and then manually mark whether you followed them (green / amber / red). Over time you review behaviour, not just P&L. There’s no automation, no AI analysis, and no optimisation. That’s intentional. Technically it’s a static web app (HTML/CSS/JS), runs entirely in the browser, and stores everything locally . So no accounts, no backend, no database. I’m posting here again because I’m looking for feedback from actual traders. – Does rules first journaling actually matter to you? – Is local only + export a deal-breaker or a plus? – Would you expect something like this to stay web based (local-only) or eventually be a downloadable app. I’ve put the alpha online, if anyone is interested in having a look, I can share the link in comments. It’s free, rough, and opinionated. I’m mainly trying to figure out whether this solves a real problem and worth developing further. Thank you. submitted by /u/founder_ops [link] [comments]
