Iran Rejects US Peace Deal and Sets 5 Demands
In a Nutshell
Iran rejected a US ceasefire proposal, demanding an immediate end to attacks, guarantees against future US aggression, war damage payments, international recognition of its Strait of Hormuz authority, and cessation of war across all fronts including proxies. Markets initially rallied on ceasefire hopes for lower oil prices and Fed rate cuts but sold off amid uncertainty, with NASDAQ struggling and bonds high. Trader took full profits on TQQQ ($2,200 gain), switched to a light long on MSTZ (up $500) betting on a market drop if no deal, targeting $10/share as a day trade.

NASDAQ market is in the green, gapped up but lacking progress. QQQ (NASDAQ ETF) and S&P 500 not making new highs since pre-market. Iran rejects US ceasefire proposal, will not negotiate with a party that violated its agreement. Markets sold off slightly but validated support during pre-market and overnight hours, then retested. Friendly reminder for beginners: watch live trading via second link in description.
Markets excited for potential ceasefire to deescalate, not due to Trump's approach. Markets want oil prices to drop to reduce inflation, enabling Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. Higher oil prices from continued attacks raise inflation. Bond market incredibly high, making it harder for US to refinance debt at cheaper rates.
Iran officially rejected US peace proposal and set five conditions:
- Immediate end of attacks and assassinations on Iran.
- Establishment of concrete guarantees against future US attacks.
- Clear determination and guarantee payments for war damages.
- International recognition of Iran's authority over Strait of Hormuz.
- End of the war across all fronts, including all Iranian proxies in the region.
US now needs to respond. If no deal or uncertainty from Trump administration, markets can drop.
In live trading with LPP team, took profits on TQQQ. Yesterday open to going long due to Trump administration's desperation for ceasefire (high bond markets, high oil prices, need for rate drops). Markets got excited but now uncertain if demands met. NASDAQ struggling, in overbought range. Fully took profits on TQQQ, left with one lucky share, made $2,200.
