SPY ETF Hedge Trades And Intraday Market Updates For Tue Aug 18 2026

Aug 18, 2026 | SPY ETF Hedge Strategy (SPY), Trade Alerts and Ideas

Here are the SPY ETF Hedge Portfolio opening trade notes for Tue Aug 18 2026 following a second down day for stocks on Monday.

Make sure to read the Opening Trade Notes for today and review the support and resistance levels currently in use.

I take profits as they appear, as markets are volatile and profits can disappear quickly. I stay with option strikes that have plenty of volume. If taking a loss, I keep them small.

Not all strategies are suitable for all investors. Trading the SPY ETF intraday can be difficult and end with losses. This type of trading is for active investors who love intraday trading. Make sure to paper trade to learn the strategy and determine its suitability for use, before risking actual capital.
