#31 How to Trade the Tump MAGA Market Mayhem Machine
Is Your Portfolio Screaming on the MAGA Market Mayhem Machine?
The market’s not just volatile—it’s unhinged.
One day it’s tariffs. The next, it’s “trade hope.” Meanwhile, your 401K feels like it’s being held hostage by a sugar-rushed toddler with access to a Twitter account.
If you’re tired of reacting to headlines and ready to start profiting from the chaos, this blog post is your seatbelt and sanity check.

# 31 How to Trade the MAGA Market Mayhem Machine (Without Losing Your Mind… or Your Money)
Tariffs, Tweets & Tumbling Tech: Markets whiplash on “Trade Hope” headlines as ODTE options fuel a new era of economic insanity. VIX holds firm above 30. Algos be wildin’. Traders? Mostly confused.
Welcome to the Ride!
Imagine waking up, sipping your overpriced oat milk latte, and realizing the Dow just dropped 1,000 points... and then gained 970 back before lunch. No, this isn't a simulation. You're officially strapped into the MAGA Market Mayhem Machine—the only roller coaster powered by economic chaos, political posturing, and testosterone-fueled tweets.
CNBC says it's about tariffs.
Bloomberg says it’s earnings.
We say... Forget the “why.”
Trade the setup!
This Market Isn’t Rational. It’s Emotional. Like a Drunk Text at 2AM.
Algos don’t have feelings. They have triggers.
And when liquidity is low?
Even a whisper from Bessent about “progress on China talks” can send the S&P into hyperspace.
"This isn't trading. It's bull riding at a frat party."
ODTE options are running the show.
Dealers are hedging gamma, liquidity is thinner than your Aunt Karen’s patience, and that 1000-point pop?
Not news-based.
That’s just the algos playing ping-pong with your net worth.
Enter: 10X Thinking in a 2X Market
In the book 10x is Easier than 2x, author Dan Sullivan makes one thing crystal clear:
Doing moreof what kinda works = burnout. Doing less of what actually works = BREAKTHROUGH!
3 Ways to Keep Your Cool While the Market Tries to Break You!
1. Fade the Fake Outs (Trade the Fade)
When the market rallies 3% on a headline about “trade hope”… you know what time it is.
FADE THAT FOMO.
Pick your levels. Look for exhaustion. Wait for the turn. Take the other side when the amateurs are panicking.
"Smart money doesn’t chase. It lures."
2. Trade the Big Dogs Only.
This is not the time to be dabbling in penny stocks named after vitamins.
Stick to Tesla. Apple. SPX. QQQ. These are the high-volume playgrounds where the algos live.
Translation: tighter spreads, bigger moves, faster exits. Just how we like it.
3. Take Quick Profits & Compound Like a Savage
This is not the season to brag about diamond hands.
Let compounding—not your ego—do the heavy lifting.
“Better to make $300 five times… than lose $3,000 trying to prove a point.”
Volatility is Your FRIEND, Not Your Foe
When the VIX is over 30, you’re not supposed to cry. You’re supposed to hunt.
Every spike in fear is a flashlight for the focused.
Because when everyone else is panicking, we’re planning.
When the headlines get loud, our setups get louder.
This isn’t your grandpa’s stock market. This is algorithmic warfare, and if you’re still trading based on yesterday’s news, you’re showing up to a gunfight with a spoon.
Time Freedom is made in markets like this.
Because while the masses are screaming at CNBC, you’ll be sniping clean trades like a Navy SEAL in night vision.
During Trump’s first three years in office (2017–2019), the S&P 500 rose nearly 50%—its best performance under any Republican president in a comparable time frame since Calvin Coolidge in the 1920s.
But here's the kicker...
In 2020, during the COVID crash, the market plummeted over 30% in just 22 trading days— the fastest decline into a bear market in history—but then rebounded to all-time highs by year-end.
That V-shaped recovery? Fueled by a cocktail of stimulus, tweets, and full-send investor speculation.
The Trump market wasn’t just volatile—it was a reality TV episode wrapped in an ETF.
