Squeeze play

This is not investment advice. These are only my ideas.

On June 30, SCHW 0.00%↑ broke out of its squeeze and began trending upward (see chart below). This followed a full month of consolidation, with the price closing above the fast 8 Wilder moving average 99% of the time over the past two months. The squeeze formed a classic flag pattern on the prior month's pole—check out the setup in the image. This ranks among the cleanest squeeze plays I've seen.

As of today, July 10, 2025, the trade is unfolding steadily as anticipated—no parabolic rocket, but a reliable grind higher. I'll soon lock in 1/3 of profits and let the rest ride per my rules.

Next, let's look at two completed squeeze trades from 2025 that delivered big wins. These exemplify the most elegant, straightforward, and profitable setups: blending strong sector momentum, a tight squeeze into a flag, one-month consolidation, and a test of all-time highs.
