RRC Sniper Setup

Elaborates Mike's RRC method.

his is how the pros time high-conviction options plays without chasing or bleeding theta.

We use the RRC Method: Reclaim → Retrace → Confirm

This is your sniper playbook for clean, high-odds entries. Let’s break it down 👇

5m chart: Draw VWAP, EMA 21, prior high/low
1m chart: Watch for reclaim + retrace + confirmation

THEN
Options flow or volume spike = green light

RRC is a reaction model. Use 5-min for setup, 1-min for execution. Hope this helps

🔁 1. RECLAIM – Momentum Trigger
Price reclaims a key level:
– VWAP
– Prior support/resistance
-EMA 113 1 MIN/ EMA 21 5 MIN
– Psychological zone (e.g., 5000 on SPX)
– Opening range high/low

This move traps sellers and signals bulls are back.
Most traders FOMO here — don’t. You wait.


📉 2. RETRACE – Setup Zone
Price pulls back to retest the reclaim level.
You want: – Tight candles
– Lower volume
– Wick holds
– No panic selling

This is where you prepare the strike, expiration, and plan.

✅ 3. CONFIRMATION – Green Light
Buyers step in, trendline breaks, or volume surges.
Once price holds and pushes, it confirms the setup.

👉 This is your entry.
