In this episode of Trading Takes, Sam sits down with Ted Zhang and Connor Bates from Revere Asset Management to break down how they called the top in semiconductors, shorted the market using ETFs like SOXS and FNGD, and avoided the traps many traders fell into this year.

From Nvidia’s topping formation to how to use stage analysis to stay aligned with market trends, this is one of the most tactical and actionable breakdowns you’ll hear this year.

They also share their risk management framework, trend gauge philosophy, and why “sitting on your hands” is not only okay—but often necessary.
