Based on the current market view, we have been in a sidemarket channel for the last week. We can see that the channel was made from 41.000 as a top and 39000 as a bottom. By using these values and taking a look at the same time on the ATR and implied volatility, we can with certain degree estimate the next movement of this asset. This is a 1:2 Risk/reward ratio...
Not time to reload on the Gamma Slamma, too many Underlying Equities must be sold, not just yet, but soon.

JNJ seems to have broke out of this rising wedge pattern, if it holds and surpasses the fib level at 158, 161 can come. Howver, on the flipside, if a reversal comes It would be best to take long monthly puts as IV is relatively low, and hold until mean reversion comes.
TSLA has been on a rampage lately, and it is safe to say that this is a highly volatile stock. The ER is today (Wed, Jul 22) and will be announced AH. Given the hinderances imposed on almost all Americans during the Coronavirus pandemic, despite the major run-up TSLA has had, my personal opinion is that EPS will miss expectations. My guess is that the insane bull...

While broad market implied volatility has basically been absent (we had one VIX pop to ~20 on 9/12, after which it has receded dramatically), it has remained in the same place as it has for the past several weeks -- in gold, mining, and oil and gas, with a smattering of high IV in individual biotech issues. Here are the top high IV stock and ETF options as of...
50 Delta ATM Volatilities: USDJPY - - $Yen has an ATM implied volatility curve of 55.95%mrkt 24.08%1wk 18.31%2wk 14.12%1m - Obviously we are aggressively steeper in the front end, with BOJ tomorrow and JPY MOF Fiscal Package details coming next week providing heightened vol for the 1day and 1wk vols - naturally we then see the curve tail off as the event...
EUR$ Technical analysis - highly bearish: Key level close: 1. On the daily and weekly we closed below the strongest pivot point of recent times below 1.10 - this is very bearish as historically this is the strongest level (lower than post brexit). MA: 1. We trade below the 2wk and 4wk MA - this is a bearish indication + we have been below the 3m MA since...
My FX portfolio currently consists of : - 2Long x USDJPY @ 106.8; 2Short x GBPJPY @ 151.2 (dynamic hedge for long UJ); 2Short x GBPUSD @ 1.4570. I will add to my short GBPUSD holdings if i can get a similar price & I may add to short GBPCHF or EURCHF downside if markets make a turn for the worst as IMO CHF denominations are under-priced relatively (as discussed...
Volume Apple Volume traded up for the first time in 4 days on thursday, increasing 25% from 20m to 26m, whilst this may be considered bearish - as increased selling, it is important to not 26m is still 35%-40% below the 4wk and 6month average. Volume cannot fall forever and we have been trading at extremely low volumes all week, so given these facts, a modest...
NASDAQ:GILD has been a great investment and I believe it will continue to be a good company to own long term. The valuation using multiple methods is outstanding compared to it's peers. Fundamentally, the question has been regarding future growth. GILD will have to find new ways to generate future sales growth to replace the expected slower growth from it's...

Some stuff hits my high IVR/high IV radar over and over again. WYNN is one of those, with an IVR currently at 100 and an IV at 81. Some caution is in order, though, since ordinarily I like going 45 days out and WYNN's earnings are due to be announced on 2/2, so I want any setup to expire somewhat before that so I don't get caught in a volatility expansion (that...
