90% win rate 🚀 Unveil an easy $GLD Call Play with naked #goldHey everyone, Greg is here with a quick rundown of today’s options trading play. I entered the ring with a naked call on AMEX:GLD , aiming for that sweet spot of easy returns on a maximal Pop trade. Today’s golden ticket could net me a max profit of $118 with a probability of profit (PoP) sitting pretty at 80%, all while tying up $3000 of buying power and riding on an implied volatility rank (IVR) of 20%.
The game plan was simple: watch the market, play it cool, and have a couple of scenarios up my sleeve:
(Scenario A) If the price hikes, I'll pivot to a strangle, balancing out with a sold put to accompany my call.
(Scenario B) If it looks like easy money, I’ll lock in those gains and close out the current trade, quick and clean.
The strategy is all about simplicity, with an exit plan to bow out gracefully at about 65% of the max profit. As of today, November 5, 2023, that naked call is open and I’m in the market.
To wrap it up, here’s the play-by-play for today:
Date: November 5 , 2023
Strategy: Naked Call on AMEX:GLD
Opening Credit: $118
Expected Profit: Exiting at ~65% of max profit
Probability of Profit (PoP): 80%
Required Buying Power (Req.BP): $3000
Implied Volatility Rank (IVR): 20
Current Position Balance (as of opening): $118 of credit (1.18cr)
Stay tuned to see which scenario unfolds and how the trade’s balance shifts in the coming days. Keep it easy, folks!

USDCAD Options Position Now In The MoneyI'd been watching USDCAD accelerate away from the Daily uptrend last week but didn't see a good enough opportunity to get short. On Tuesday morning we'd failed again at 1.38500 during Asia and was selling off below VWAP.
This was a decent intra-day signal and I opened an options position with a 1.3800 strike, expiring Friday Nov 3rd. Unfortunately price bottomed soon after and caught a strong bid for the rest of the day. This put the position underwater having paid a premium for such a close strike at the time of entry!
Consolidating at the high through Wednesday, we topped at 1.39000 after the Fed decision, which didn't cause an immediate sell off on the news but once it was digested, price started to slide and struggled to regain itself during Asia.
Today saw a brief spike back into Tuesdays failure point at 1.38500 (an unbelievable intra-day short if you took it!) before a sustained drop all the way to 1.3770 where I was able to bank 20% profit on the position with the remainder being held until tomorrow.
Anything could happen between now and expiration, but after holding the position most of the week, taking full profit into 1.3770 isn't a good enough R:R. I will however be aggressive with profit taking tomorrow as the closer we get to Exp the more time decay on the option, so you certainly don't want to hold out for a few extra pips. If you have profit at that point, take it.
SPX daily reality check in. $4200-$4600 WHERE?!?!I hear everyone telling their followers to plan on trading in the $4200-$4600 range until further notice etc.
My only question is this range in the room with us now?
Am I missing something?
Should we just begin to Yolo Calls?
If your going to update you followers Daily or even Weekly should the information not be ACTIONABLE to your traders. Especially on #Ct = X where most clearly state they make trades daily and look to bank profits daily.
How exactly does this work?
Sounds like a great way to get rekt.
How about we first focus on getting back into the $4200 range and then seeing if we can turn that into support.
Until that happens lets first watch for these areas at $4180-$4190 until broken through.
Not to say that cannot or will not happen today. But shouldn't that be on the radar for traders following you if your going to send them a daily update in the morning?
Disney $dis #dis Back in our Buy zone.The gift that just keep giving. We laid out this plan Months ago and even first talked about it being something to watch for last year. Ever since it became fully actionable it has continued to do exactly as we have planned and so far, so good, we just keep buying low and selling/trimming higher.
In the bigger picture i still say buyers should be highly considering keeping some shares sub$100 and especially sub $90 for long term holds/investments.
These sub $85 and even better sub $80 positions may someday seem like a GIFT for the future of your portfolio's.
Don't miss out and squander this opportunity.
Spy options trader DAILY 0dte etc. Not to say it won't go higher this week depending upon what happens with earnings from major movers but also what J Powell has to say.
However also do not forget while everyone with larger accounts on X may be telling you we now bounce back to much higher levels before they even begin to watch for rejection. Some of those same accounts that said support was at $412 to $415 when I said you'd be seeing $400-$410 before a bounce.
Well larger accounts now eyeing. $425-$430.
I'm still saying watch for rejection issues at the $417 and $420.
IMO that $417 level has more confluence and possibilities for overhead R then most are giving it credit for.
Even if we break back through it later, I'll be watching for at least one decent rejection and shorting from it was my plan.
Even if my Puts bought at closing don't pay tomorrow, we did great with the Friday puts from R given that morning at premarket as well as playing it basically the same way this morning. 0Dte puts and 31st puts were up 55-110% within the 1st 2 hours of trading. Most were closed WAY into profits within the 1st hour or LESS of trading.
Now we see what the MM do over night and if they can keep pushing it UP.
On the #spx CBOE:SPX I'll be watching for R at the 4180-4190 level.
My puts will begin there for at least a daily pullback to make $ in that hour. I think puts from $4187 look sweet for a daily play.
If I'm wrong you'll clearly have your receipts, lol
$SpyI hear Large accounts saying we hit the bottom of the main trend lines, and we are most likely ready to bounce and if we do we will bounce back to the main trend line they have that says no real resistance until $428-$430.
I would argue a few things on the Daily.
!. Being the fact, we have not hit the BOTTOM of the other turned which would be closer to $400-$405
2. the fact that if we are bouncing i see several places to reject WAY before we get to $428-$430.
3. Watch the levels of $417-$422 to for rejection.
DAX: Back and forth Todays intraday session shows how important Bouhmidi-Bands can be for day trader and specially options traders. We started with a break of 1st STD lower Bouhmidi-Band after that we saw a typical reversal back into the bandwidth. After us opening we see a typical volalitiy swift and impulse that put pressure on DAX and pushed back below lower Bouhmidi-Band. Still watch out coming days today 2nd STD lower Bouhmidi-Band at 14598 - This could be the next short target. By looking on volume profile we see that around 14448 we see next bigger support.
