SPX closed at $7,554 on a 1.66% gain led by tech and consumer. Gold added 2.4%, silver 3.2%, and crude got crushed -4%. Here's how the day graded out and what I'm watching Tuesday.
Strong broad-market day with a clear rotation story: tech led, energy bled, and the metals told a macro tale that I'm not ignoring. SPX at $7,554 is extended intraday but the close was clean.

Crypto Fear & Greed at 20 (Extreme Fear) while BTC is up 1.19% is a signal I take seriously — that's capitulation sentiment meeting a green candle, which historically sets up a move. I'm not chasing BTC here but I'm not cutting my position either. Stop stays at $62,000.
Gold and silver are working. Both positions are up. I added to silver on the open and I'm holding through any dip to $68.50. My SPX hedge via short exposure got stopped out today — that cost me, and I'm grading that a miss. Day trades in SMWB and PLBL were watched but not taken — scanner zeroed out on qualifiers, which was the right filter. Tomorrow I'm sizing into whatever sets up off the open in the first 30 minutes, no FOMO chases after 10 AM.
