Let's Be Honest About What's Happening Right Now.
The Nasdaq just hit all-time highs. Tech stocks are ripping. Options volume is surging.
And most retail traders are either missing the move entirely — or chasing it and getting destroyed by the whipsaws underneath the surface.
If that sounds familiar, there's a reason.
It's not bad luck. It's not a bad strategy.
It's because you're trading in the wrong phase of the market.
The Coiled Spring Setup
“Money is made during periods of expansion. Most traders get chopped up while the market is compressing. But if you understand these two phases and how to identify them, it can make a drastic difference in overall profitability.”
— Thomas Wood, @TradesWithTom · 26,162 ViewsThe solution is to pinpoint what I call the Coiled Spring Setup…
And then make your move.
If you’ve never heard of the Coiled Spring Setup before that’s ok… it’s simple to understand. At its core, it’s simply a 4-step framework for identifying the exact moment a market transitions from compression to explosive expansion.
When you know how to spot a Coiled Spring, you stop guessing. You stop chasing. You wait for the setup, enter with confidence, and let the market do the work.
The proof is public.
In 2026 alone, I've used this system to publicly call and confirm 19 winning trades on X (@TradesWithTom) — before the moves happened.

The real reason your trades reverse on you — it's not bad luck, it's a specific institutional trap that plays out every single day, and I'll show you exactly how to sidestep it.
How to read early-stage expansion moves — where the biggest profits are made — before they become obvious to everyone else.
