Weekly $SPY Options SPY Options to Kick off October
Election is less than a month away. Investors are taking profit and repositioning defensively until after the election noise. VIX over $21. We’re still just 3% off from all-time highs. The next catalysts are rate cuts, job numbers, and earnings. We expect volatility until the election noise settles.
This week, we are leaning bearish to start the week. However, the upside trade has the most room for continuation. We are using 15-30 minute candle closes for confirmation.
Best of luck!

$AMD Chart Setup: A Strategic Play Ahead of Advancing AI Event.As we approach AMD’s highly anticipated Advancing AI event this Thursday, the market may soon see the company in a whole new light. Historically, these events tend to prompt a "sell the news" reaction, giving us the opportunity to front-run the event throughout the week.
The chart is setting up nicely with a confirmed wedge breakout, supported by strong bullish volume on both daily and weekly candles. If the stock goes flat or even sells off ahead of the event, it could present a bullish opportunity for us to capitalize on, if it continues to run, could be a short opportunity as the move could be priced in.
My positions are as follows:
Calls over $171.21, with targets at $177.55 and $185.
Puts under $164.42, with targets at $162.58 and $154.49.
Let’s stay sharp and position ourselves for what could be a pivotal moment for NASDAQ:AMD this week. Cheers.
EHUSDT: Cup and handle pattern is formed. Based on the Ethereum (ETH/USDT) chart you've shared, here is a concise trading strategy:
Support Zone: The price is currently testing a key support zone around $2,350. This area has shown buying interest in the past.
Short-Term Bullish Scenario: If the price holds above this support, a potential short-term bullish move could occur, with targets at the Fibonacci retracement levels of $2,471 (0.618) and $2,520 (0.5). Watch for bullish signals in this area to confirm potential upward movement.
Bearish Scenario: If the price fails to hold this support zone, a deeper decline could follow, with a major target at the 1.618 Fibonacci extension level, around $2,054.
Trading Plan: Consider entering a long position if the price bounces off the support zone with confirmation. Set a stop-loss below the support zone. Alternatively, if the price breaks below the support, look for a short opportunity with a target near $2,054.
This strategy provides a balanced approach for both potential bullish and bearish moves.

$SNOW Breakout on the HorizonSnowflake (A.I. data storage) NYSE:SNOW , has been trading in VERY tight range for over a month that is much smaller than its normal expected move, which is insane.
1. If it’s at a major support, than its breakout is to the upside (which I’m inclined to believe)
2. If there some crazy news about AI data storage, than it could break below the support.
I am more inclined to believe it’s the former. The point of control on the volume profile is $155-$160/share, so that’s where it is likely heading if it breaks out upward. NYSE:SNOW

ETHUSDT should buy or sell ?Market Overview:
The ETH/USDT pair is showing signs of strength after breaking the resistance level at $2,644. The recent cup-and-handle pattern, highlighted in red, suggests a bullish reversal pattern. The market has tested the resistance zone around $2,679.98 multiple times (as indicated by the red arrows), implying that the market is gradually gaining momentum.
Key Technical Points:
Support Zone: The green zone around $2,615.95 - $2,626.25 represents a key support level, acting as a buffer where buying interest might emerge.
Resistance Zone: The next major resistance sits at $2,679.98, as indicated by the orange rectangle. A break above this level could trigger further upside momentum.
News Catalysts:
U.S. Bond Yields: A decline in U.S. bond yields and a weakening USD could support further upside movement in Ethereum, aligning with the technical picture.
Macro Events: Any easing from the Federal Reserve or signs of slowing inflation might also act as a tailwind for the broader crypto market, potentially boosting Ethereum prices.
Trading Strategy:
Bullish Scenario:
Entry: Consider entering a long position if the price breaks and holds above $2,679.98 (highlighted by the orange zone).
Target: Set a profit target around $2,740, where the next potential resistance could appear.
Stop Loss: Place a stop loss below the green support zone ($2,615.95), ensuring risk management in case of a market reversal.
This strategy hinges on the assumption of continued bullish momentum, reinforced by both technical patterns and favorable macroeconomic conditions.
Part 1: Option Selling: A Simple Way to Earn Consistent PremiumsWe’ll explore the top 7 option-selling strategies on the NSE (National Stock Exchange) that could help traders target up to 10% monthly returns per Month on their capital. Option selling is an advanced strategy that can generate consistent income, but it’s important to balance high rewards with the right risk management. Whether you are new to options or an experienced trader, this guide will provide an overview of each strategy, rated based on its risk, reward, and suitability for achieving your financial goals.
Option Selling on NSE: A Simple Way to Earn Consistent Premiums
Introduction
Option selling is a great way to make steady income on the NSE. Instead of waiting for big market moves, you can sell options and collect premium upfront. It’s a strategy that benefits from time decay, meaning the longer the option sits without action, the more money you can make. Let’s break down why it works and why traders love it on the NSE.
What is Option Selling?
When you sell an option, you’re giving someone the right to buy or sell an asset at a specific price. In return, you get paid a premium upfront. As long as the market stays within a certain range, you keep that money.
Selling a Call : You profit if the price stays below a certain level.
Selling a Put : You profit if the price stays above a certain level.
It’s simple – the less the market moves, the more you earn.
Why Traders Choose Option Selling
1. Immediate Income
You get paid right away when you sell an option. No waiting for market moves, just steady income.
2. Time is Your Friend
As time passes, options lose value due to time decay. This works in your favor as a seller, since the option becomes less likely to be exercised.
3. High Win Rate
You don’t need big price moves. As long as the market stays within a range, you win.
4. Control Risk with Spreads
You can limit your risk by using spreads, where you buy another option to protect yourself if the market moves too much.
Why the NSE is Ideal for Option Selling:
High Liquidity: Options like Nifty and Bank Nifty have a lot of buyers and sellers, so trades are easy to make.Low Capital Requirement: You need less money to sell options on the NSE compared to other strategies.Risk Control: With the wide variety of options, you can set up trades that limit your risk.
Conclusion
Option selling on the NSE is a simple and effective way to generate steady income. By collecting premiums and managing risk with spreads, you can create a reliable strategy for consistent earnings. Whether you’re new to trading or experienced, option selling offers an accessible path to profit.
SEC Allows Options Trading on BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF Market Update - September 27th, 2024
Takeaways
The SEC has approved Nasdaq's request to list and trade options on BlackRock's spot bitcoin ETF: The decision introduces new hedging tools for investors but comes with a 25,000 contract limit which has been criticized by the exchange as “conservative.”
Crypto investment products saw a second consecutive week of inflows, totaling $321 million, after the Fed's decision to cut rates: Bitcoin investment products led the pack with $284 million in inflows last week.
More than 40 Republican lawmakers called on SEC chair Gary Gensler to withdraw the crypto custody rule (SAB 121): They argue the rule increases consumer risk and stifles innovation.
Caroline Ellison, ex-CEO of Alameda Research, was sentenced to two years in prison for her role in the FTX fraud case: Despite her cooperation with law enforcement in the case against Sam Bankman-Fried, the judge ruled that Ellison must still serve time.

SEC Allows Options Trading on BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF on Nasdaq's ISE
The SEC has approved a rule change permitting the listing and trading of options on the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, on Nasdaq’s International Securities Exchange (ISE).
BlackRock had been pushing for this approval since March, following the launch of several bitcoin-linked ETFs in the US. Earlier proposals faced concerns around market manipulation. Regulators also expressed concerns around introducing more crypto derivatives products to the market, due to their nascency. To address these concerns, the SEC approved an amendment that limits positions on IBIT options to just 25,000 contracts. The limit has been described as "extremely conservative" by Nasdaq.
The regulator also concluded that the exchange’s surveillance systems would be an adequate deterrent for market manipulation. Currently, BlackRock’s IBIT spot bitcoin ETF is the largest in the world, with more than $17 billion in assets under management.

$538-$545 is an accumulation zone. Shay is leaning bearish to retesting September lows but doesn’t think we will fall below $510. Low volume yesterday. September and October can bring some “wonky things”. Great time to get some cheap hedges. Polarity at the election. Chips off the table until clarity into the market?

My biggest BankNifty trade EVER!!!
2300+ points gain in BankNifty feels like direct access to the holy heaven!
Got a clear Entry of this CE side buy trade on 12 Sep 9:15 am at 51,230 price level.
The final profit target was at 880+ points anf I was holding 50% of this position which gave me a whopping 2300+ points of the remaining posiion.
How did I pull this off?
- Use 15m time frame chart
- Buy the monthly contract (not weekly).
- The monthly contracts are costlier, but it pays off in times like this.
- Follow the trend using the Risological swing trader
- You can either exit on every TP levels (Take profit), or
- Close partially on each level.
- Hold 25% of the position till the price reversal happens
- Price reversal means - the candle turning red on a long trade and green on a short trade.
Hope this helps!
Namaste!

Oh man!
Look at this beauty.
Many users on TradingView message me -
"Why dont you trade in lower time frames like 1m or 5m?"
The thing is, indexes like Nifty, BankNifty and other indexes in Options trading are very volatile and no strategy can accurately work in lower time frames, unless you are a tick trader or quick scalper.
Everybody has their own style and preferences when it comes to trading.
I am more comfortable trading Nifty and BankNifty in the 15m because:
My blood pressure doesn't rise during trading the 15m time frame charts
I buy month contracts with at least 15 days to expiry, to catch the big moves like this one.
I religiously follow the Risological swing trading indicator, thus avoiding any emotional trading.
The result is in front of you!
1800+ points and counting!!
Isn't this lovely?
BankNifty 1600+ Points Gain in 7 days! Using RisologicalBankNifty CRAZZZZZY Gains using the Risological indicators.
Do I have to say a word?
Massive 1600 points gain, and still looking solid on the 15m time frame.
This is the beauty of trading the options in 15 min time frame.
Yes, you would need more capital compared to the weekly contracts.
I have been trading the Nifty, Banknifty and MidCPNifty in 15m time frame from almost 2 years now, and I have no regrets.
Some points to keep in mind using this Risological strategy:
- Use 15m time frame chart
- Apply Risological swing trader indicator
- Buy monthly contracts, that have at-least 15 days time till expiry.
- Catch big moves
All the best and namaste!
