Active Investing Edge Mentoring for 03/17/2026

---

Video Summary:

In this St. Patrick's Day trading session, the mentor provides a tactical roadmap for a pivotal week dominated by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting and statement. The core strategy for the week is "the one thing": determining if major indices like the S&P 500 and NASDAQ can close outside of their recent two-day ranges, which are currently resting on critical 200-day moving averages. A significant portion of the session is dedicated to the newly updated Opportunity Report, which utilizes the PRIME acronym—Price action, Relative performance, Institutional accumulation, Momentum, and Earnings growth—to evaluate market opportunities. Technical analysis is applied to sector rotations, noting the relative strength in semiconductors (SMH) versus the "risk-off" signals in high-yield bonds (HYG). The mentor also details high-conviction setups for data center stocks like Dell and Seagate and examines the long-term bottoming patterns in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
