I'm starting this week with a more cautious stance as U.S. equities edged lower, and the Nasdaq $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ once again underperformed. The ongoing sell-off in AI-related stocks is clearly weighing on sentiment, raising questions over whether the usual year-end Santa Rally can still materialize under current conditions. What stands out to me is the continued weakness in big-cap tech. Names like Broadcom $Broadcom(AVGO)$ and Oracle $Oracle(ORCL)$ extended last week's declines, dragging on the broader tech sector. Broadcom's three consecutive dow
🐾 Options Puppy Style: A Tail-Wagging Trade Update 🐾 (And a Deep Dive into Import Tax Receipts Decline) 🐶 Woof! My IWM Put Adventure 🐶 Bark-tastic Trade Alert! 🎉 Last week, I sniffed out a juicy opportunity with IWM (Russell 2000 ETF). Instead of chasing the big bones 🦴 (like buying at $255), I decided to play it safe and sell 4-day put options at $250 for a $1 premium. That’s a 0.4% profit in just 4 days! 🐕💨 Why this was a paw-some move: Not Greedy, Just Smart: 🧠 I didn’t let FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) take over. A small, steady profit is better than a risky gamble. Time Decay on My Side: ⏳
How I Achieved 17.87% This Year Using Covered Calls, Cash-Secured Puts, and Trading Ranges 📈💰
How I Achieved 17.87% This Year Using Covered Calls, Cash-Secured Puts, and Trading Ranges 📈💰$NVDA 20260109 180.0 CALL$ This year, I managed to achieve a 17.87% return by focusing on one core philosophy: letting the market pay me to wait. Instead of chasing breakouts or predicting tops and bottoms, I relied on selling options, managing risk, and trading within clear price ranges. My main tools were covered calls, cash-secured puts, and range trading on strong stocks like Nvidia (NVDA). This approach did not require perfect timing. It did not depend on predicting earnings surprises or macro headlines. Instead, it relied on probabilities, discipline, and consistency. Most importantly, it allowed me to generate income whet
DBS & OCBC New Highs! How’s Your SG Bank Holding Experience?

Santa Rally in Doubt? Will BOJ Rate Hike Deepen Market Downturn?
U.S. November employment data released on Tuesday showed the unemployment rate unexpectedly rising to 4.6%. While still relatively low by historical standards, it marks the highest level since early 2021. Data from the University of Michigan indicate that as of November, most consumers expect unemployment to continue rising over the next year.According to Morgan Stanley, if this week’s U.S. labor data show moderate softness, it could increase the probability of further Federal Reserve rate cuts, which would be supportive for equities. “We are firmly back in the ‘good news is bad news, bad news is good news’ regime,” Wilson wrote in a note. He explained that while a strong labor market is positive for the economy, it reduces the likelihood of rate cuts in 2026.Against the backdrop of softer
"How to Trade a Broken Wing Butterfly in Singapore ?"
If you want a strategy that gives you upside potential while keeping your risk small and defined, the Broken Wing Butterfly is one of the most underrated setups in options trading. This structure lets you profit from a controlled move in one direction — while risking very little capital — perfect for high-income traders in Singapore who want smart, asymmetric trades. Quick question for you 👇 Would you take a trade where the risk is small, but the reward is skewed in your favour? What Is a Broken Wing Butterfly? You combine: 1️⃣ Buy one option 2️⃣ Sell two options 3️⃣ Buy another option — but with uneven strikes The “broken wing” simply means the distances between strikes are not equal. This creates a structure where: Risk is limited Reward is tilted to one side You don’t need the stock to
$TSLA$This week's 500 call has an open interest of 110k contracts, meaning Tesla will likely struggle to break above $500 this week. While this initially seemed ideal for selling calls, a massive block trade caught my eye: $TSLA 20260220 600.0 CALL$ – 10,000 contracts of the Feb 600 call traded, with a total premium of ~$11.34 million.While the exact catalyst is unknown, looking at Tesla's call flow, the mid-term 520 call $TSLA 20260130 520.0 CALL$ saw 9,704 contracts opened, mostly on the buy side.While $600 is uncertain, there's a strong probability Tesla reaches $500 by Christmas. For a conservative approach, consider selling the put:
🚨🚨🚨Today, December 16, 2025, markets are in a definitive "risk-off" mood. Global equities and cryptocurrencies are facing significant pressure as investors pull back ahead of critical U.S. economic data and navigate a cooling "AI trade." 📉 Stock Market Analysis The general sentiment is one of caution and consolidation. Major indices are sliding as investors wait for fresh catalysts and clarity on trade policies. * U.S. Markets: Wall Street is coming off a rough patch. Tech and AI-heavy stocks (like Nvidia and Broadcom) have faced sharp corrections recently as investors question whether AI profits justify current valuations. The Dow Jones hovered around 48,446, showing minor declines as the "AI bubble" narrative gains steam. * Asian Markets: It was a "sea of red" today. Japan's

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Reduced profit compared to last month. But still fluctuate within manageable range. Hopefully, creditors will paid up faster in the coming year. Will it closed higher at end of year from now? USD180 or USD190? Hopefully USD200!
