Here's my end-of-week recap for my subscribers. If you’re not already in my room, you’re missing out! There’s nobody else out there breaking down the market, explaining what’s moving it, why it’s moving, and how to trade it the way I do. I don’t just post trades. I teach you how to understand the market, manage risk, and recognize the opportunities in front of you. Come see what you’ve been missing! Optionstrading101.com ---------------------------------------- Alright, that’s a wrap for the week!!! WE WERE ON FIRE THIS WEEK!! 🔥🔥🔥 The market finished higher this week, with the $SPX closing around 7,743. We saw a strong bull rally on Monday and Tuesday, with the $SPX trying to get back to its all time high. That momentum started to fade later in the week as rising oil prices and bond yields put downward pressure on the market. The 10-year Treasury yield hit 5.22% this week, its highest level since 2007, as inflation concerns and expectations for tighter monetary policy continued weighing on the market. We started the week with some HUGE GAINS on Monday, which set us up perfectly for the rest of the week. Those early profits gave us plenty of money to cover the cost of other positions, effectively making them risk free and allowing us to give them more room to run. We kept that trend going ALL WEEK and took profits on: $ARM 300 Calls → +445% GAIN 💰🔥 $INTC 127 Calls → +120% GAIN 💰🔥 $META 730 Calls → +135% GAIN 💰🔥 $NVDA 227.5 Calls → +127% GAIN 💰🔥 $APP 340 Calls → +100% GAIN 💰🔥 $SNDK 2000 Calls → +358% GAIN 💰🔥 $MU 1100 Calls → +168% GAIN 💰🔥 $ZS 210 Calls → +175% GAIN 💰🔥 $SPX 7720 Puts → +132% GAIN 💰🔥 $SPX 7690 Puts → +257% GAIN 💰🔥 $PANW 400 Calls → +115% GAIN 💰🔥 $USO 155 Calls → +110% GAIN 💰🔥 $MU 1100 Calls → +209% GAIN 💰🔥 $MSFT 510 Calls → +292% GAIN 💰🔥 That’s 14 TRIPLE DIGIT WINNERS this week, including multiple trades over +200%, +300%, and a monster +445% winner! WHAT A WEEK! 🔥🔥🔥 Today, we saw renewed optimism surrounding ongoing discussions between the U.S. and Iran over a potential agreement involving the Strait of Hormuz. Oil prices and bond yields pulled back as the market reacted to the possibility of progress, helping stocks move higher. There still isn’t a finalized agreement, so this will be something to watch closely over the weekend. Any concrete developments surrounding the negotiations and the Strait of Hormuz could have a significant impact on oil prices, bond yields, and overall market sentiment heading into Monday. Looking ahead to next week, we have some BIG market moving catalysts on deck. The PCE inflation report comes out Wednesday morning, followed by $MU earnings after the close Wednesday. $MU earnings are a major catalyst for memory and chip stocks, and because those sectors have been leading the market, $MU earnings can impact broader market sentiment on Thursday. Then on Friday morning, we get the September Jobs Report, which will give the market another major look at the strength of the labor market. We also have several Fed officials scheduled to speak, and with the market extremely sensitive to inflation and interest rates right now, any hawkish comments surrounding tighter monetary policy could move bond yields and impact market sentiment. No matter what happens, we'll keep following the money, managing our risk, and taking advantage of whatever opportunities the market gives us. I hope everyone enjoys the weekend! I’ll see you all Monday!
