“Despite the broader market’s uncertainty, companies like CEG continue their relentless march higher. “

Hey Gang,
While everyone’s obsessing over inflation data and Fed speeches this week, I’ve been busy banking profits.
Just ask any Profit Surge Trader members who caught our 45% win on Constellation Energy (CEG) in a single day.
Here’s the good news…
That same setup is still active! And it tells us something crucial about this market that most traders are missing.
You see, while the talking heads on TV debate every Fed comment and dissect every economic report, I’m finding that the real money is made by focusing on individual stocks showing clear technical strength.
CEG is the perfect example – it’s been in a beautiful uptrend despite all the market noise and volatility we’ve seen lately.
Let me break down exactly what I’m seeing in both the broader market and this specific trade setup.
Because even with concerns about inflation and tariff talk dominating headlines, there are still incredible opportunities if you know where to look.
Current Market
This week is loaded with potential market-moving catalysts.
The upcoming CPI and PPI reports will tell us if inflation is really cooling or if January’s hot jobs numbers were a sign of more pressure ahead.
And the constant threat of tariffs could upend trade for multinationals with just a single tweet.
But here’s what most traders don’t realize – even if these reports come in hotter than expected, or tariffs happen hard and fast, certain sectors are showing incredible strength regardless of the macro picture.
Take the energy sector, for example.
Despite the broader market’s uncertainty, companies like CEG continue their relentless march higher. It all stems from the dominant AI theme.
AI models consume huge amounts of energy, so much that companies are inking deals for power plants dedicated to these data centers.
We’re seeing this reflected in my charts, with CEG carving out a beautiful uptrend on the daily timeframe that stretches back several months.
What’s particularly interesting is how CEG has maintained its momentum even as the market digests President Trump’s recent trade policy announcements.
While steel and aluminum stocks are grabbing headlines with the new 25% tariff news, energy companies like CEG are quietly crushing it.
As one of the largest clean energy producers in America, CEG is perfectly positioned here, especially if more manufacturing comes back to the U.S.
Now, let me show you exactly what I’m seeing in the charts that made this trade such a winner.
Why This Trade
Looking at CEG’s 78-minute chart, we have a perfect example of my favorite setup – what I call a “TPS” trade:
- Trend – Notice the clear upward channel forming a great consolidation pattern
- Pattern – Price is coiling tightly in a well-defined range
- Squeeze – The momentum indicators at the bottom show we’re building up for a potential move higher
On top of that, you have the 8-period, 21-period, and 55-period moving averages stacked on top of one another, plus a momentum shift higher.
That’s why it showed up in my S.A.M. AI Scanner with two A+ setups:
What makes this particularly powerful is how it aligns with the daily chart.
Even during the market’s recent gyrations, CEG has maintained a strong uptrend. The stock barely flinched during the broader market’s pullback several weeks ago – that’s exactly the kind of relative strength I love to see.
I also want to point out that stocks love to fill gaps. And the last market drop left a big one open at $347. That’s upside of 9.8% from here just on the stock.
When you consider options plays…well, I don’t have to tell you how juicy this trade can get.
