Weekly Prediction 9-13 May QQQ Iron CondorQQQ
9 - 13 May
The weekly VXN-> Volatility Index for S&P 100 index / Nasdaq
Implied = 37.4
In this we have to standard it for weekly session
37.4 / sqrt(52-> 52 weeks in a year) = 5.19%
My historical product is telling me with 1.5x coficient that the expected movement for this week
E Volatility = 38.02 / sqrt(52) = 5.27%
With this data, from my calculations, when EV > VIX, there were a 86.6% chance that the market
stay within the bottom and top created with the ranged from the E Vol
So for next week this range for us is going to be
TOP - 325.5
BOT - 293
Lets look into an iron condor oppotunity for trading:
325Call Sell - 328Call Buy
293Put sell - 290 Put buy
This is giving us at the current moment a 0.35 expectancy
So taking into account from 1109 weekly candles, that 86.6% of the times the market stay within our top/bot channel,
Our profit margin would be 86.4% * 0.35 - 13.6%*1 = 16.9ROI after 100 trades

The weekly VIX -> Volatility Index for S&P 500 index
VIX = 30.2
In this we have to standard it for weekly session

My historical product is telling me with 1.5x coficient that the expected movement for this week
E Volatility = 31.3 / sqrt(52) = 4.34%
With this data, from my calculations, when EV > VIX, there were a 90% chance that the market
stay within the bottom and top created with the ranged from the E Vol
So for next week this range for us is going to be

Lets look into an iron condor oppotunity for trading:

Short and Long Iron Condor SPX 05 May 2022We can estimate with a 84% confidence that the volatility for today is going to be below 1.65%
For this the market will stay within

0.4% based on the last 5658 Daily candles.

BOT 4272
From the fundamental point of view, yesterday we had the release of the interest rates, so I believe currently
we are in a short relief moment, where we can have for some days/weeks a small bull trend
For today we have no big volatility news, so we cant expect big surprises.
From volume point, we can see that the point of concentration is around 4300-4285
Having said that we have 2 different ways of trading for today

SHORT SPY - Resistance with Heavy VolumeYou can sell short S&P 500 ETFs like the S&P 500 Index (SPY). But this strategy can be risky, since losses on short positions in stocks, ETFs, or stock index futures are potentially unlimited, and may be subject to margin calls. However, there are times when a bearish bet against a benchmark stock index, such as the S&P 500, is appropriate. Buying Puts is one option, get it! also otm put calendar debit spreads may be worth watching.
Eve & Adam Double Bottom confirmation on Costco ($COST)Earlier this month, Costco made confirmation of an Eve & Adam Double Bottom chart pattern as it began seeing daily closes above the mid range between lows. This pattern indicates a fairly high probability (about 88%) of a bullish reversal relative to the sell off which from the recent all-time high (571.49) achieved on December 29th, 2021.
Today, the price is within 10 points of the all-time high. I'll be looking over the coming weeks to see what happens next, and for possible positions. From here, I see one of two likely outcomes over the near term:
A) COST breaks out above the previous high and likely has a forcible move to the upside, or...
B) COST gets rejected from the current levels in the near term and has a pullback to somewhere around $520
In the case of A , I'll be looking to short either with a PUT spread, or potentially straight up long PUTs - which have a greater risk/reward but are enticing considering the macro picture of the broader market/economy as a whole. In the case of B , I'd shop for a long position with some kind of CALL spread.
The statistics indicate that track B has about a 2/3 chance of playing out. This could be even more advantageous because it could potentially offer both decent long and short opportunities over the next few months. We'll have to see where the chips fall.
SPY PRICE TARGET OF 431 - MARCH 3SPY is currently in a larger, but similar pattern to the one it completed about two weeks ago. It appears like a slanted W, and is caused by short sellers taking profit, but bulls not having enough momentum to create a higher high.
Just like the previous (yellow) pattern, price did complete a very slight higher high (0.5% both times) and should now reject. The On Balance Volume indicator is also showing the start of a down trend in volume, another possible sign.
I will be looking out for put opportunities tomorrow, March 3rd.
NVDA PRICE TARGET OF 232 - TOMORROW, MARCH 3NVDA slowly creeped up on Wednesday, March 2nd, with little volume (a sign of weak momentum) and closed the day with an impressive selloff - leaving price below the 15m 9ema.
NVDA has two options tomorrow the way I see it.
The first and most likely, is price drops to 232 and possibly even tests 226. This is will depend largely on the open tomorrow, and whether or not price stays below the 15m 9ema. This is backed by the the up trend being broken and the On Balance Volume indicator showing a steep decline.
The second and least likely, is price continues to creep up, retesting the upper trendline region of 250/252 - although I see it being very difficult for bulls to find the momentum to break through these strong resistances.
Of course, these analysis are becoming less reliable as the situation in Ukraine and Russia unfolds and updates.
BEARISH on QQQ todayI BOUGHT A PUT OPTION on #QQQ WITH A $349 STRIKE PRICE AND 3/4 EXPIRY...ALREADY IN THE MONEY... HERE'S WHY I ENTERED THE TRADE...
#QQQ opened higher than yesterday's market close. However, I believe this is a bull trap. Price is pushing against major trendline resistance and the stochastic indicator on 1HR and 4HR charts reflects QQQ in overbought territory.
My theory is that there is way too much bearish news in the marketplace for tech stocks to break resistance and go on a major run.

Tesla Major Bubble?Tesla has absolutely exploded in value especially since March 2020, which we believe was the beginning of a massive equity bubble. Tesla began trading around $40-80 range for over 6-years.
The vehicles they produce now, they produced in 2017. The Tesla Battery and Tesla Solar Roof were all known back then as they are now. Tesla has not announced anything that should put their stock price at over $900. We know why the stock rallied to $1200, and that was solely the Fed.
Perhaps most shocking is Tesla's P/E ratio which is now over 100X their earnings. This is extreme, and it screams asset bubble. Not even Toyota which is the worlds largest car manufacturer which produces both electric and gasoline vehicles has a P/E of less than 10.
So where do we stand?
We see equities going into a bear market. The FOMC of 1-26-2022 confirmed this when the Fed announced they are continuing their plans for tapering, raising rates, and shrinking their balance sheet. This will adversely affect the stock market and bring equities below a 15% correction, into a bear market.
Key Factors
Buying Volume Weak
MACD Turning Bearish
P/E Ratio: Extremely Overvalued.
Fed Tapering, Raising Rates, and Shrinking Balance Sheet.
50MA is 1/3rd Current Value
100MA is $180 Range
With the biggest buying of equities calling it quits and essentially "selling" this is a stock that I would get out of the way, short but do not expect a continued rally.
Trade idea on Walmart - WMTJust as an idea: Cash secured put on Walmart, with a strike price of $134 (delta 23) and an expiry of Feb. 18, 2022. Trade would to be closed on Feb. 16, 2022, 1 day before the quarterly results, which will be published on Feb. 17, 2022, before market opening. The $134-$135 area has successfully acted as support four times over 1 year. Whether it will do it another time is of course uncertain! The additional purchase of the cheaper put with strike price 115$ reduces the margin and creates a bull put spread. This trade idea is one of the 222 trade ideas from my book "The Stock Market Year 2022: Which stocks go up and when?"

QQQ Put Credit Spread - 10% RoM As the title says, simple put credit spread, was enterred at noon today when we were green. THe position is currently being tested to the downside. I debated turning this into an IC as well just like the other trades from today, but I feel that QQQ would be the one to turn around the quickest and I do not want to end up in a scenario where my call side gets blown out.
