Three trades, one freight train I’m fading

The market is pricing in peace for what feels like the 35th time this week.

Peace sells. Marketplace is buying it. AMD didn’t hurt either.

But under the hood, advance-decline is still scattered. Correlations broken. Gamma gone wild in one name in particular.

That’s the trade.

I sat down with Schwab’s Big 3 this morning and walked through three setups I’m working right now — including the freight train I’m willing to step in front of with defined risk. Here’s what’s inside the replay:

→ Why I’m fading the most aggressive gamma squeeze in the market right now — and the $3.30 June put spread I built to clip the volatility risk on a stock that just went from $40 to $111 in five weeks…

→ The streaming name where economic headwinds, fuel prices, and summer seasonality all line up against subscribers — and the $2.75 July put spread targeting the exact $75 retest level…

→ The oversold bounce trade in a $130 yoga pants name where I’m being very clear this is a TRADE not an investment — and the $1.20 May call spread that lets me clip a fast move without overstaying…

→ The one definitive sign of a gamma squeeze you only have to look at implied volatility to spot — and the inverted vol skew that’s now flashing on this name…

→ PLUS the reason I’m willing to take the other side of an absolute freight train — and how defining your risk is the only way to do it without getting run over…

Don’t think. Just go look.

To your success, Don Kaufman
