These Supply Zones Came Straight From Barron’s (One Already Paid)
Jan 31, 2026Stop Guessing Market Direction: Turn Headlines into High-Probability Trades with Supply & Demand
Tired of staring at charts wondering which way the market will break? Stop chasing hunches and start trading like institutions do—by spotting their "footprints" in price action.In our latest video breakdown, Mitch Firestone from Precision Trading Labs reveals how to transform recent Barron’s headlines and market noise into objective, high-probability trade setups using our proven Supply & Demand methodology. No more guessing games—just clear levels backed by institutional behavior. We pulled back the curtain on fresh Barron’s coverage to highlight trades most retail traders overlook.
Here's what we dove into: Winning Trade: PayPal (PYPL) Bearish Supply ZoneWe banked profits riding a bearish supply zone on PYPL. Recent price action showed clear exhaustion at higher levels—buyers got trapped, and sellers stepped in aggressively.
This setup delivered a clean move lower, proving how supply zones act as institutional rejection areas. Beginner-Friendly Short: Ford (F) as a Textbook CaseFord (F) stands out right now as an ideal short-selling example for newer traders. With weakening momentum and clear supply overhead, it's a straightforward case study in spotting high-probability downside moves without overcomplicating things.
Live Trade: "Textbook" Drop-Base-Drop on Roblox (RBLX)
We walked through a classic Drop-Base-Drop formation on Roblox (RBLX). This pattern signals strong seller control after a brief consolidation (the "base"). When price drops away from the base with conviction, it often leads to accelerated downside—exactly what we saw in real time.
Growth Setups: Bullish Demand Zones to WatchOn the bullish side, we highlighted strong demand zones for: Monster Beverage (MNST) — A resilient area where buyers have consistently defended price, setting up potential continuation higher.
BigBear.ai (BBAI) — Emerging bullish structure with demand support holding firm amid AI sector interest.
Quick-Fire Levels + Macro PlaysWe also shared actionable levels for DELL, BE, RHI, and macro-inspired ideas tied to Mexico and Canada plays—perfect for scanning broader opportunities.
Key Lessons from the BreakdownHere's what you'll walk away knowing how to apply immediately: Spotting Exhaustion — Learn to identify when buyers are "trapped" at tops (or sellers at bottoms) through price rejection and volume clues.
The 2.5:1 Rule — Why you don't need a sky-high win rate to grow your account consistently. Focus on risk-reward asymmetry for steady compounding.
Core Formations — Master Rally-Base-Drop (bearish continuation) vs. Drop-Base-Rally (bullish reversal), and how to trade them with precision entries and stops.
Options vs. Stocks — Decide the right vehicle based on your account size: straight puts, credit/debit spreads, or simple shorting for max efficiency and risk control.
