The Contrary Thinker™ Tactical Trade Planner is designed for traders who want selective, high-conviction trade opportunities, not constant activity. It is built for decision-makers who understand that when you trade matters as much as what you trade.

This publication focuses on short-term to intermediate-term opportunities, typically spanning days to a few weeks, and is always framed within the broader timing and volatility context established by the Annual, Monthly, Weekly, and Volatility Reports.

The Tactical Trade Planner is not a signal service and not a day-trading feed. Trades are presented selectively, only when market conditions, volatility regime, and time structure align to create asymmetric opportunity.

Each trade plan emphasizes:
• Timing and context first
• Defined risk parameters
• Clarity of intent (why this trade, why now)
• Markets where liquidity and execution matter

The Tactical Trade Planner is particularly useful for:
• Active traders who want fewer but better trades
• Traders transitioning from hobby trading to disciplined execution
• Traders managing limited time who cannot monitor markets continuously
• Investors looking to tactically deploy capital during high-probability windows

Trades are framed to be adaptable across instruments, including futures, ETFs, options, and cash markets, depending on the trader’s preference and experience.

The Tactical Trade Planner works in conjunction with the MarketMap™ Weekly and Volatility Reports. It relies on those publications to determine when trading conditions are favorable and when standing aside is the better decision.

Delivery is via Beehiiv, readable on the website and delivered by email.

The Tactical Trade Planner is included as part of the Contrary Thinker™ Premium Publications package.
