Alphabet (Google) - 330% Rally ahead!Hello Traders and Investors, today I will take a look at Alphabet.
--------
Explanation of my video analysis:
About 8 years ago Alphabet stock created the first retest and rejection of the long term ascending bullish trendline. Then we had a lot of retests of this trendline, the last one being in the beginning of 2023 and this retest was followed by another decent bullish rejection. Last month Alphabet stock broke out of an ascending triangle formation and is now just very very bullish.

PayPal - Is the stock dead?Hello Traders and Investors, today I will take a look at PayPal.
--------
Explanation of my video analysis:
With the Covid-Crash in 2020 we saw a beautiful bullish break and retest on PayPal in confluence with a retest of an ascending trendline. This retest was followed by a rally of +200% towards the upside. From there, PayPal stock declined more than 80% and it is likely that we will never ever see the previous highs again. If you decide to take a trade though, make sure to properly manage your risk.

Options Blueprint Series: Debit Spreads - Precision InvestingIntroduction to Options on Corn Futures
Corn Futures are one of the staple commodities traded on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), representing a critical component of the agricultural sector's financial instruments. Each Corn Futures contract is standardized to 5,000 bushels, and the price is quoted in USD-cents per bushel.
Contract Specifications:
Point Value: 1/4 of one cent (0.0025) per bushel = $12.50.
Margins: Trading on margin allows traders to leverage positions while only needing to cover a fraction of the total contract value. For Corn Futures, the initial margin requirement is set by the CME Group and varies based on market volatility: Currently $1,300 per contract at the time of this publication.
Options trading introduces another layer of complexity and opportunity. Debit spreads involve purchasing one option and selling another, which helps manage the overall cost of entering the market.
Margin for Debit Spreads:
The margin for debit spreads typically reflects the premium paid for the long position minus any premium received from the short position. This results in a significantly lower margin requirement compared to trading the underlying futures contract outright. (In the below example the net premium paid for the spread is 7.26 points = $363, which is significantly lower than $1,300).
Understanding Debit Spreads
Debit spreads are a sophisticated options trading strategy utilized primarily to achieve a targeted investment outcome while managing risk exposure. They are constructed by purchasing an option (call or put) while simultaneously selling another option of the same type (call or put) but with a different strike price, within the same expiration period. The aim is to reduce the net cost of the position, as the premium received from the sold option offsets part of the cost incurred from the bought option.
Mechanics of Debit Spreads:
Long Position: You buy an option that you expect to increase in value as the market moves in your favor.
Short Position: You sell another option with a higher strike (in the case of a call spread) or a lower strike (in the case of a put spread). This option is expected to expire worthless or decrease in value, offsetting the cost of the long position.
Advantages of Using Debit Spreads:
Defined Risk: The maximum loss on a debit spread is limited to the net premium paid plus transaction costs. This makes it easier to manage risk, especially in volatile markets.
Potential for Profit: Although the profit potential is capped at the difference between the strike prices minus the net debit paid, these spreads can still offer attractive returns relative to the risk undertaken.
Lower Cost of Entry: Compared to buying a single option, spreads typically require a lower upfront investment, making them accessible to a wider range of traders.
This strategic application is what we'll explore next in the context of Corn Futures, where market conditions suggest a potential breakout.
Application in Corn Futures
For traders looking to harness the volatility in the agricultural sector, especially in commodities like corn, debit spreads can be a precision tool for structured trading. Given the current trading range of Corn Futures, with prices oscillating between 424 cents and 448 cents per bushel for a number of weeks, a strategic setup can be envisioned aiming for an upward breakout towards 471 cents, a resistance level indicated by Sell UnFilled Orders (UFOs).
Strategy Implementation with Debit Spreads:
Long Call Option: Buying a call option with a strike price near the lower end of the current range (450) positions traders to benefit from potential upward movements. Premium paid is 10.39 ($519.5)
Short Call Option: Simultaneously, selling a call option with a strike price at 475 cents caps the maximum profit but significantly reduces the cost of entering the trade. This strike is chosen because it aligns closely with the expected UFO resistance level, enhancing the probability of the short option expiring worthless. Premium received is 3.13 ($156.5).
The net cost of the spread ($519.5 - $156.5 = $363) represents the total risk. We are using the CME Group Options Calculator in order to generate fair value prices and Greeks for any options on futures contracts.
Setting up the Trade
To potentially capitalize on the anticipated market movement for Corn Futures, our debit spread strategy will involve a detailed setup of options trades based on specific strike prices that align with market expectations and technical analysis. This step-by-step guide will provide clarity on how to effectively enter and manage this options strategy.
Trade Details:
Long Call Option: Buy a call option with a strike price of 450. This option is chosen as it is near the current upper boundary of the trading range, providing a favorable entry point as we anticipate a breakout.
Short Call Option: Sell a call option with a strike price of 475. This strike is selected based on its proximity to the identified resistance level at 471, suggesting a high likelihood that the price may not exceed this level before expiration.
Cost and Profit Analysis:
Net Premium Paid: $363 as discussed above.
Break-even Point: Long strike price (450) plus the net premium paid = 457.26.
Maximum Profit: The maximum profit for this debit spread is capped at the difference between the two strike prices minus the net premium paid = 475 – 450 – 7.26 = 17.74 = $887.
Maximum Loss: The maximum risk is limited to the net premium paid.
Risk Management
By entering a debit spread, traders not only define their maximum risk but also set clear targets for profitability based on established market thresholds. This methodical approach ensures that even if the anticipated price movement does not fully materialize, the financial exposure remains controlled.
Risk Management Techniques:
Position Sizing: Determine the appropriate size of the position based on overall portfolio risk and individual risk tolerance.
Stop-Loss Orders: Although the maximum loss is capped by the nature of the debit spread (the net premium paid), stop-loss orders can be used if the underlying asset moves against the trader.
Rolling the Spread: If market conditions change or the initial price target is reached earlier than expected, consider 'rolling' the spread.
Adjusting the Trade:
If the price of Corn Futures approaches the short strike price (475) faster than anticipated, and market sentiment indicates further upward potential, the short call option can be bought back while a new higher strike call can be sold. This adjustment aims to extend the profitable range of the spread without increasing the original risk by much.
Conversely, if the price seems unlikely to reach the 450 mark, reassess the viability of keeping the spread open. It may be prudent to close the position early to preserve capital if fundamental market factors have shifted negatively.
Importance of Continuous Monitoring:
Regularly monitor market conditions, including factors like weather reports, agricultural policies, and economic indicators that significantly impact corn prices.
Stay updated with technical analysis charts and adjust strategies according to new resistance and support levels identified.
Effective risk management not only protects from downside risk but also enhances the potential for profitability by adapting to changing market conditions.
Conclusion
The strategic use of debit spreads in Corn Futures options trading offers a balanced approach to leverage market opportunities while maintaining strict control over potential risks.
Recap of Key Points:
Corn Options on Futures: Understanding the contract specifics is crucial for informed trading decisions.
Debit Spreads: These allow traders to benefit from expected price movements with reduced upfront costs and limited risk.
Trade Setup: Focused on a potential breakout from the 448-424 range aiming towards 471, utilizing 450 and 475 strikes for the long and short calls respectively.
Risk Management: Emphasizes the importance of position sizing, potential use of stop-loss orders, and the flexibility to adjust or roll the spread according to market changes.

AMD - Correction And LongsHello Traders, welcome to today's analysis of AMD.

BUY/LONG ZONE (GREEN): $48.00 - $60.00
DO NOT TRADE/DNT ZONE (WHITE): $40.00 - $48.00
SELL/SHORT ZONE (RED): $25.25 - $40.00
By request. My main focus would be on the range between $40.00 - $48.00, this area has determined the trend five times, which are seen each time price touches and breaks or touches and rejects. Currently I'm looking at a bull trend that was set after a breakout of the range in the $40-$48 zone. Any data before June 2023 I was not considering. If I had to look for an upside target, assuming the trend stays bullish long term once price reaches $60, the next logical point would be $103. Due to the lack of data and because price is trading away from the start of my bullish zone, I personally would not look to enter until there is a reaction to the $60 area or a pullback to the $48/$49 zone.

Bitcoin on the Brink: Bollinger Bands Hint at Potential Price BrBitcoin, the world's most popular cryptocurrency, has been exhibiting some intriguing technical signals lately. The cryptocurrency's volatility indicator, the Bollinger Bands, has narrowed significantly, reaching levels last seen in mid-February 2024. This development has sparked speculation among analysts about a potential price breakout for Bitcoin (BTC) in the near future.
Bollinger Bands Explained:
The Bollinger Bands is a technical analysis tool that measures price volatility. It consists of three lines: a simple moving average (SMA) in the center, and an upper and lower band plotted at a specific standard deviation distance above and below the SMA, respectively. The wider the bands, the higher the volatility; conversely, narrower bands suggest a period of compressed price movement.
What Does the Narrowing of Bands Indicate?
When the Bollinger Bands contract, it typically signifies a period of low volatility or consolidation. This can be interpreted in two ways. One possibility is that a breakout is imminent, with the price poised for a significant move in either direction – up or down. The other possibility is that the current price range may hold for a while longer, with continued consolidation.
The Mid-February Precedent:
The current narrowing of the Bollinger Bands is particularly interesting because it mirrors the situation observed in mid-February 2024. Back then, the bands contracted to a similar degree, and it was subsequently followed by a price surge that saw Bitcoin climb above $50,000. This has led some analysts to believe that history might repeat itself, with another price breakout on the horizon.
Is a Breakout Guaranteed?
However, it's crucial to remember that technical indicators, like Bollinger Bands, are not crystal balls. While they can provide valuable insights into potential price movements, they don't guarantee future outcomes. Several factors beyond technical analysis can influence the price of Bitcoin, including:
• Market sentiment: Overall investor confidence towards cryptocurrencies can significantly impact Bitcoin's price. Positive sentiment can fuel a breakout, while negative sentiment could lead to a downward price movement.
• Regulatory landscape: Government regulations and policies aimed at cryptocurrencies can create uncertainty and impact investor decisions.
• Major news events: Significant global events, such as economic downturns or geopolitical tensions, can influence the price of Bitcoin as investors seek alternative assets.
What to Watch Out For:
Given the inherent uncertainty, investors should closely monitor these additional factors to gauge the direction of a potential breakout. If positive market sentiment coincides with the Bollinger Band breakout, we could see a significant surge in Bitcoin's price. Conversely, if negative sentiment prevails, the breakout might be short-lived, or it could even lead to a price correction.
Conclusion:
The narrowing of the Bollinger Bands is a noteworthy development for Bitcoin, suggesting a potential breakout on the horizon. However, investors should exercise caution and consider broader market factors before making any investment decisions. By combining technical analysis with a well-rounded understanding of the cryptocurrency landscape, investors can position themselves to potentially capitalize on Bitcoin's next price move.

It might surprise usWhile everybody is asking why the sell off yesterday and now switching to bear mode, this one is doing its thing. I think the market has punished enough this stock in short term, and investors are buying. The strategy here is buy some now, if it drops to the base of the large triangle buy more (around 145), if on the other hand breaks up the falling wedge buy again and hold until price touches the upper vertex (200 or so). SL very wide 120 or so.
