Fed speakers all day

Bearish flow is still there for SPX

Check out gamma on SPX > spiked @ 6775 & 6800, it's going to take a lot of flow to break those levels

Still long, just watching today

If AMD takes off and the calls get called away @ 450/sh = $225k - $27.3k = profit of $197.7k + $17.7k premium from CC's minus $14k (cost of 5 calls in April) = $201.4k profit

Long term hold so ideally expiring worthless is the goal here, but in the event they get called I still have my core position + a $215k profit

That's the power of options

April is the gift that keeps on giving

Was expecting some downside this week, but getting mixed signals

SPX 6800 or 6700

See where it closes today

The games MMs play

Finally got the down side

SPX down 90 point lol

Blazed · 10-10-2025, 11:59 AM

If 6600 breaks, there will be a nice drop

Won't look at puts until a break below 6600

6700 remains a huge level and is the target this week

SPX: 6675 key level 6650 > 6600 > 6592 downside / 6700 > 6740 upside

All out here

Unfortunately I missed the initial drop, but caught the break below 6600

Great trade to end the week

Might get an even bigger flush if China keeps the bs up lol

Got any of that market manipulation........*scratches neck quickly*

Got $10k in the Roth to play with, going to maybe wait and see if we push down further. Wouldn't be opposed to some SPY long date Leaps again. 6500 might be a good entry, but maybe we push lower. Sold 50 shares of NVDA at 187, wanted to get some profit, still have 150 shares (100 tied up in covered call). Wouldn't be opposed to everything coming back down. Interesting to see how quickly everything gets bought up again, if it does this time.

It's possible

It's also possible this was a replay of April

I'll be watching to see how quickly it's bought up or if they let it drop more

Amazing seeing the millions of dollars in puts placed by new accounts 30 minutes before the tweet.

Love that for them

Yeah, those were great trades and 1000% insider 30 mins before the announcement

So while there was some insider trading, the drop was imminent just wasn't expecting one that big initially. if I was, then I would have loaded up on puts

The announcement just added fuel to the fire which created some really large flows

Large flows invoke large hedging requirements which manipulate the price to desired levels

Anyone who can read flow could see it coming

Yesterday the mag7 flow was bearish, so if 6675 breaks, the implied bottom might not hold

They knew the move was coming but held the selling until Friday with the news about China

Crypto land saw massive liquidations last week, see if that spills over to stocks this week

Just watching today, still long

SPX: 6600 - 6700 which one hits first

Should be a good day

I grabbed some 0dte's, so taking a full exit here, close enough to 6675, and it may or may not make it to 6690

Making 5 figures before noon is a great day

Trading is easy, no reason to over complicate it or panic, just follow the levels
