Option Strategies to .SPX

Hello everyone! Today i want to share some option strategies with you!1.If SPX gaps down on Monday due to this tariff news, then $Cboe Volatility Index(VIX)$ will spike up, which means there will be optionselling opportunities to take advantage of the vol spike.Gamma structure for Feb 3 expiration shows put gamma stacks at 6050, 6000, 5990, 5950, 5900, and 5880. Below Friday's closing price the stronger put stacks are at 5990 and 5900, but that 5990 stack might get blown thru on a big gap down on Monday.Depending on how far SPX dumps and if there is elevated premium to capture, we will be looking to sell 5 or 10 wide spreads at the following put strikes, 0DTE expiry: 5880, 5820, 5770, 57002.Adding to this 0DTE trade ... if

After the January FOMC meeting ended, there was no rate hike as expected. Powell maintained his previous stance on controlling inflation, but during the Q&A session, he mentioned he hadn't communicated with Trump, leaving uncertainty about whether his attitude might change after such communication. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ According to Wednesday's options opening details, this week's bullish top positions exceeded bearish ones, maintaining the original judgment above 120, with the upper limit raised to 130.Long-term outlook remains bearish, with strike prices down to 100, with positions extending to June. This is understandable - January's Deepseek incident suggests companies will continue to enhance computing power this year, leading to ongoing questio

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ On Monday, NVIDIA's options trading volume ranked first in US stocks, reaching 10.18 million, triple the average volume!The data is very rich but relatively concentrated. Based on Monday's options opening details, the estimated near-term fluctuation range is 110-130. Whether it tends upward or downward depends on tech companies' earnings calls in the coming days and whether management's outlook on AI capital support has changed. The expectation gap could reach 100.Institutional sell call rollovers occurred in four ranges: 129-134, 127-132, 131-136, and 130-135. This week's upper limit is seen at 127.Based on this week's options opening situation, closing around 120 on Friday would be appropriate, though earnings report interference

Filter bubble burst leading to revaluation - an excellent buying opportunity

Pure panic selling and deleveraging market conditions - time to buy the dip. We might see several such opportunities this year. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ It's now confirmed that this major drop was mainly triggered by DeepSeek. Why did DeepSeek, released earlier, cause today's drop?Because today DeepSeek topped Apple's App Store free app download rankings in both China and US regions, surpassing ChatGPT in US downloads.DeepSeek R1's significantly reduced AI training and inference costs, and this top ranking symbolizes global recognition of this advantage, directly competing with and outperforming US AI.QiMai Data screenshotActually, DeepSeek's progress isn't negative for the AI industry; rather, it accelerates the entire sector.

A moment of tranquility that needs no words, feeling very peaceful. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Expected price range next week is 140-150. Friday's pullback is normal, no need to worry. $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Tesla has earnings next week. Looking at institutional strike prices sold, there seems to be intentionally high pricing, even possibility of post-earnings rise.Could also be to avoid hurting short sellers after earnings when selling calls, though I don't see many short positions.Main institutional selling ranges are 440-480, 435-472.5, and 437.5-475.Next week's earnings will mainly depend on Musk's future promises. Tesla's current high valuation mainly comes from FSD iterations, Cybercab/Robotaxi deployment milesto
