Mindful Trader Commentary For October 21, 2026


Hey Guys,


The market is up a nice chunk since the email I sent yesterday.  The S&P 500 is around 7,730 right now.  That's an encouraging sign.  Let's see if that upward momentum continues through the rest of the week.


I had two stock positions reach their profit targets this morning.  One was the trade I took for IR yesterday.  It's nice to see that one hit the profit target so quickly.


The other was for my second position on DDOG.  That double down setup worked like a charm on this trade.


Those profits were welcome after a tough week last week.


There haven't been any new trades yet today.  I have buy limit orders in for the tickers at the top of the watch list, as always, but none have filled yet today.


If you have any questions, just reply directly to this email.


Eric
