I’m watching something I haven’t seen in weeks. Sector after sector is making two and three standard deviation moves with zero explanation. The S&P looks calm. It’s not. What’s really happening is manic rotations underneath the surface. One sector explodes higher. Another collapses. Money is on the move and it can’t find a home. We’re
The Dow Jones hit a new all time high yesterday. The NASDAQ hasn’t made one since late October. Gianni Di Poce flagged this divergence in today’s session. The longer tech fails to confirm the rally, the more concerning the setup becomes. There are some bright spots. Semiconductors are breaking out. Micron keeps hitting new highs.
Brandon Chapman just flagged two stocks setting up for potential short squeezes right now. The Santa Claus rally never showed up. But beneath the surface, aggressive call buying is creating the conditions for explosive moves. Brandon tracks options flow to identify gamma squeezes before they trigger short squeezes. When someone buys thousands of call contracts,
Five weeks. One hundred points. Dead center at 5900. That’s the entire story of the S&P 500 since late November. Bulls are claiming we ended the year strong. The chart says we’ve gone absolutely nowhere. Let me say this… The longer we stay compressed, the more open interest accumulates on the same option strikes. This
Wall Street is celebrating a 16% year in the S&P 500. Blake Young just proved that number is fiction. After adjusting for the dollar’s 9.5% collapse against other currencies, your real return drops to 6%. And that’s the generous calculation. Gold surged nearly 60% this year. If you use gold as your inflation benchmark, US
Gianni just identified a critical inflection point that will determine the next several months of trading. His thesis is straightforward. If stocks don’t start rallying by the end of next week, we’re heading into a multi-month grind that will punish both bulls and bears. The market loves to frustrate the largest number of traders possible,
Someone just made a $14 million bet on a stock most traders have never heard of. Brandon spotted 60,000 call contracts hit Compass Inc. (COMP) in a single print today. Within two minutes, the stock ripped from $10.44 to $10.76 on an intraday gamma squeeze. The trade happened at 1:12 PM Eastern while everyone else
SLV, the silver ETF, just traded 2.7 million option contracts in a single session. For context, that’s approaching Nvidia territory. On a holiday Friday with virtually no volume anywhere else. The bigger question isn’t whether this trade ends badly. It will. No market cracks the expected move five weeks in a row and stays elevated
We’ve got a half day of trading, keeping things quiet…or so you would think. Let me start by saying, the response to my 0DTE webinar was OVERWHELMING. I knew that trading 0DTE products was popular…but my word. For those of you who weren’t able to attend, you can check out a replay of the event
Gianni just flagged a critical divergence that could determine whether this rally has legs or is running on fumes. The S&P 500 continuous contract just hit a new all time high. The cash index is on the verge of its highest daily close in history. Yet the NASDAQ has not made a new all time
