Automation Anxiety Evaporates: Software Handles “Nearly Range” Perfectly | SPX Market Briefing | 12 Sep 2025

Well, it looks like my automation anxieties were all for naught. Despite my over-under plan and being a little worried about the algo potentially not handling what I considered to be a manual override situation for that “nearly range,” the software took care of business this time.

I can now dab a sweaty brow and take my time thinking about future handling of these types of edge case situations. Sometimes the systematic approach works exactly as designed, even when human doubt creeps in.

That said, let’s get down to business. SPX is bullish – despite my concerns yesterday – and the “nearly range” has delivered a clean breakout target up at 6630. Mathematical precision wins again over emotional second-guessing.

So I am now bullish, albeit a little bit late to the party, until I’m bearish. The beauty of systematic trading is that being late but right beats being early and wrong every single time.

One Chart. One Setup. Daily SPX Income Locked In.

No indicators. No guesswork. Just pulse bar profits on repeat.

SPX Market Briefing:

When systematic doubts meet systematic results, the approach wins every time.

Current System Status:

• Position: Officially bullish (software confirmed, human validated)

• Target: 6630 breakout projection from “nearly range” completion

• Manual Override: Officially cancelled – automation handled perfectly

• Systematic Bias: Bullish until proven bearish

• Weekend Mode: Engaged with confidence restored

Yesterday’s edge case worries proved to be exactly that – worries rather than realities. The systematic approach handled the “nearly range” breakout scenario with the same mathematical precision it applies to textbook setups.

The Vindication Factor: Sometimes the best lesson in systematic trading is learning to trust your own systems, even when human intuition suggests manual intervention might be required. The software calculated the breakout parameters correctly and positioned accordingly.

6630 Target Math: The “nearly range” height projected upward from the breakout point gives us the 6630 target level. Clean, mechanical, no emotional adjustment required. The market will either reach it or provide clear reversal signals – both outcomes are perfectly tradeable.

Today’s Systematic Deployment:

Tag ‘n Turn – Bullish until bearish, hunting 6630 target with mathematical patience. Being late to the party doesn’t change the systematic parameters, just extends the profit potential timeline.

Premium Popper – Bullish breakout environments often provide excellent opening volatility patterns. Ready for whatever mechanical signals emerge from market structure.

Lazy Popper – Perfect setup for 0-DTE collection during trending conditions. Bullish momentum typically creates favorable theta decay scenarios for systematic approaches.

I can sit back, relax, and let the weekend roll in knowing the systematic approach handled the complexity exactly as designed.

Expert Insights:

Systematic trading confidence often requires overriding human emotional responses during edge case scenarios. The discipline to trust established algorithms over intuitive manual adjustments frequently separates profitable systematic traders from reactive position managers.

Breakout target calculations using range projection methods provide mechanical profit objectives that remove emotional decision-making from trend-following strategies. Mathematical precision typically outperforms discretionary adjustment during uncertain market conditions.

Fun Fact:

Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison briefly overtook Elon Musk as the world’s richest person on Wednesday after Oracle shares surged by 41% following the company’s earnings report. Ellison’s wealth jumped by $101 billion in a single day to $393 billion – the largest one-day increase in Bloomberg Billionaires Index history. The stock surge was driven by Oracle announcing a $455 billion backlog in AI-related cloud contracts, with projections to grow cloud revenue from under $20 billion to $144 billion by 2030.
