Every now and then, a pattern shows up in the market that stops you in your tracks. Not because it guarantees anything, but because it keeps repeating with almost uncanny precision.
I’ve been watching something unusual around John Deere (DE) earnings for several quarters — a move that hits right around 3:55 p.m. ET the day before the company reports, which is before the open Thursday.
Not in the early afternoon, not casually into the close, but almost the exact same minute each time.
And whomever is behind it tends to be right. I’ve taken four of these setups myself and three were massive winners. One did lose, so nothing here is certain of course, as is always the case when taking any trade. This is just my read — educational only — and past performance never guarantees future outcomes.
The real question is whether this is someone with an edge or just a disciplined trader who knows exactly when they want to strike. Either way, the footprints are hard to ignore.
The Track Record Speaks for Itself
The funny part is we actually missed the signal last quarter. I flagged it earlier in the day, then the next morning I asked if the group caught it. The answer was no — the reminder never made it onto the calendar. Nate still owes everyone for that one.
So here’s your pro tip — don’t rely on anyone else’s memory, including mine. Set your own reminder for Wednesday afternoon or, better yet, show up for the Closing Playbook session so you can watch the tape with the group in real time.
Nate said he’ll have an eye on this one, so be sure to stop by!
And this isn’t the only name we track for odd-lot or pre-earnings footprints. DE is just the clearest recent example. Every earnings cycle, a few other names show similar patterns — sometimes subtle, sometimes so bold you’d almost think insider trading was legal — joking, but only kind of.
Oh, and if you’re not aware…
Nvidia (NVDA) reports Wednesday after the close, so it should be an action-packed show!
How I’m Approaching This One
So to wrap things up, John Deere reports Thursday before the bell, which means the potential signal window lands on Wednesday at 3:55 p.m. Whether the mystery trader shows up again is anyone’s guess, but the consistency makes it worth watching.
I’ll be tracking the tape closely, keeping risk tight and treating it like any other setup — interesting, potentially high reward…
But never guaranteed.
If you want to develop your own structure for approaching patterns like this, that’s exactly what our education is built for, helping both new and advanced traders build a reliable framework.
Don’t miss this one. And don’t forget the reminder.
