$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ TSMC reported earnings and maintained its original 20%–30% growth forecast, with robust AI demand. Still, this isn’t enough to reverse the overall weakness in chip stocks—prices are likely to retest previous lows.The largest bearish options position opened on Wednesday was the $NVDA 20250417 65.0 PUT$ , with 45,000 contracts. Not that anyone thinks it's going to $65$—this is more about trading volatility.So there are basically four bearish camps: $100$, $90$, $80$, and sub-$80$. Below $80$, it’s more about playing volatility, while most people see the range as below $100$, above $90$.Chances are, NVDA closes above $100$ this week. But if you’re holding short puts an

$VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ Yesterday, we mentioned in our article that someone made a big move—selling 120,000 contracts of the $SMH 20250425 175.0 PUT$ , which is a “sell put” strategy. Literally speaking, this means he believes SMH won’t break below its previous low before April 25.But here’s the question: if you rewind to before Tuesday, was this strategy really in line with the current trend? New options traders probably think it’s fine, but seasoned players might raise an eyebrow after seeing this.Then on Tuesday, there was another big trade—44,000 contracts opened on the $SMH 20250425 175.0 PUT$ , but th

Fellow traders, there’s more drama to watch.Someone has placed a massive bet that chip stocks won’t fall below their previous lows before April 25th. Specifically, the trades involve selling $SMH 20250425 175.0 PUT$ , $TSM 20250425 130.0 PUT$ , and $MU 20250425 60.0 PUT$ . The positions are for 120,000 contracts, 70,000 contracts, and 50,000 contracts, respectively.If this isn’t based on insider information, then something’s definitely fishy.However, as my regular readers know, such blatantly targeted large trades are like waving cash in front of market makers—they’re irresistible bait.It’s

Hello everone! Today i want to share some trading analysis with you!1. $S&P 500(.SPX)$ filled the gap at 5400 and re-tested that area again today. All this chatter about the death cross going on right now. Do we get a surprise by MMs and go for that 5630 gap fill ???Image2. $Robinhood(HOOD)$ Whoops ... forgot to sell naked calls on HOOD. Adding it now. Wrote the April 17 expiry $55 call strike.Trying to help us out fellow [what are we calling ourselves these days] HOODians / HOODites / HOODigans ... let's see if MMs come chase our 55 strike. That would benefit our long position greatly!Image3.Sold naked and covered calls on $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$

$KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF(KWEB)$ The level of information leakage has reached absurd proportions.Over the weekend, news broke that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced a new tariff rule on April 11th (Eastern Time). This rule exempts categories such as automatic data processors, computers, communication devices, displays and modules, and semiconductors from the "reciprocal tariffs" imposed by the Trump administration.However, prior to the official announcement, on Friday, April 11th, unusual activity in KWEB options was observed. A massive order for 110,000 contracts of $KWEB 20250425 35.0 CALL$  was opened, with a total transaction value of over $5 mi

🌟🌟🌟Using a Spread Options Strategy for the Magnificent 7 is a brilliant idea especially when managing risk in volatile markets.  This strategy caps the maximum loss potential and has lower upfront costs.  However the Spread Options Strategy has  limited upside since risk is capped, so is profit. However this options strategy requires an understanding of options pricing and market dynamics.  Not so suitable for beginner investors. @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @CaptainTiger @TigerClub

Hello everyone! Today i want to share some trading ananlysis with you!1. $Strategy(MSTR)$ Trade idea: MSTR April 17 320CTrigger: 300 ✅ Targets: 324,337 🎯 Stop: 281 🛑 MSTR- closed at 299.98. MSTR looks like a double bottom forming above 245. IF MSTR can breakout above 300 and Bitcoin gets through 85k we can see MSTR back to 337-351 range again. Bitcoin through 90k is much more bullish for crypto and risk assets. Calls can work above 300 for MSTR.Image2. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Trade idea: NVDA April 17 114CTrigger: 108 ✅ Targets: 113,120 🎯 Stop: 105🛑 NVDA- closed at 110.93. NVDA dip was bought up at 86 on April 7th. NVDA looks like it may have bottomed in the 88-90 range in the short term. IF NVDA can base above 10

Hello everyone! Today i want to share some option strategies with you!1.Haven't had one of these in a while ... finally had a very profitable optionselling week. The bulk of the profit came from trades that were naked/covered calls on $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ .✅ Profit for the week ended April 11th = $26,683.67 In full transparency, last week was horrible from having to roll put positions and close out positions for a loss (didn't want to continue holding those trades or rolling farther out).❌ Loss for the week ended April 7t

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Let’s start with a funny story: the whale who sold 90,000 contracts of the $130 put on Wednesday ran for the exit during Thursday’s session. Currently, the open interest for $NVDA 20250411 130.0 PUT$  stands at 58 contracts.We know this whale opened their position right before Wednesday’s close, which was at the highest price of the day. However, they closed out their position on Thursday at intraday lows.As a result, the market makers made a huge profit yet again. Assuming the whale’s closing price was $25 per contract, this trade resulted in a loss of about $90 million for them. In other words, the market makers pocketed $90 million in profits.I admit, I overesti

Hello everyone! Today i want to share some option strategies with you!1.Joining the $Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ squad ... wrote the $3 put strike at the May 16 expiry. But, we don't trust this market, so we're selling the put below below the Covid low of around 3.6. Will roll up the strike to 3.5 to capture more premium based on how price action plays out over the coming weeks, and will roll up to higher strikes if market conditions and price action improves.

How should we understand the idea of "The market rebounded, but it's still unsafe"?Wednesday was absolutely absurd—arguably the most unforgettable trading day of this year. But as long as Trump remains in office, I believe this "most" will inevitably be outdone.At 1:24 PM on April 9th (U.S. time), Trump posted on his Twitter account, announcing that over 75 countries had contacted U.S. representatives to negotiate issues related to trade, trade barriers, tariffs, currency manipulation, and non-monetary tariffs. As a result, a 90-day suspension measure had been approved. This suspension applies to reciprocal tariffs, lowering them to 10% during this period, and it takes effect immediately.Unsurprisingly, the market soared collectively.This 13-hour tariff suspension announcement was essentia

Hello everyone! Today i want to share some option strategies with you!1.Forgot to post this the other day ... sorry ... been busy with contractors, work meetings, and getting taxes done.Closed out $Strategy(MSTR)$ trade for profit and rolled buying power into cash-secured puts on $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ and $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ .

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ At the current price level, it’s neither high enough nor low enough—both bulls and bears have reasons to feel nervous.Friday’s Action:The $55 put $NVDA 20250425 55.0 PUT$  opened on Friday was closed prematurely. It was closed at NVIDIA’s intraday high of $105, so the position didn’t make much profit.Market Reaction to Tariff News:Despite China's pre-market announcement of retaliatory tariffs (a 50% increase on all U.S. imports), the market didn’t continue to drop.Tuesday’s Option Activity Highlights:Institutional players closed their $99 calls and rolled them into $109 calls. Meanwhile, they continued to hold sell positions for $100, $101, and $102 calls.Large orde
