      Top Technical Picks: CRWV Selling Looks Excessive, HSI Needs to Clear 23,200 First !!

      This technical review begins with CoreWeave (CRWV), a stock currently in focus. We examine what its break below $60 means as credit risk is repriced, then identify key technical levels for the Nasdaq, gold, crude oil, and the Hang Seng Index. The key question is whether the rebound after the sharp selloff can repair the technical damage and whether major support levels can hold. Let’s start with CRWV.

      Big Options Bets: US Index Put Blocks Explode as Gold $4,380 Calls Draw Heavy Positioning!

      English version: Options on futures are derivatives linked to futures contracts. Trading volume and open interest reveal positioning across expiries and strikes, offering insight into market expectations, risk appetite, and potential support and resistance zones. However, they should not be treated as simple bullish or bearish signals. Today, we analyze changes in large options-on-futures trades and open interest on October 20 versus October 19. This is the latest available dataset and provides insight into positioning and risk appetite. The latest data show mixed positioning. S&P 500 front-month puts recorded the largest increase in open interest.

      Weekly Futures Options Watch: Bulls Beware! Massive Deep OTMNasdaq Put Trade Emerges

      Futures options are options on futures contracts. Trading volume and open interest reveal how capital is positioned across expiries and strike prices. They can help gauge market expectations, risk appetite, and potential support and resistance levels. However, they do not directly indicate a bullish or bearish view. Today, we examine the day-on-day changes in large futures options trades on October 14 versus October 13. These are the latest reported block trade flows and offer valuable market signals. The latest open interest distribution by strike shows no clear directional consensus on October 14. Crude oil positions remain defensive, while new flows are pricing tail risks in both directions. Nasdaq put options continue to lead in open interest, volume, and net additions, sending the str

      Big Options Bets: Why the Sudden Surge in Gold Bullish Bets?📈💰

      Comparing the changes in open interest on October 8 with October 7, the market’s collective positioning was far from aggressive: put open interest in crude oil and the Nasdaq-100 expanded significantly faster than call open interest, suggesting that market participants were paying for downside protection. Gold, by contrast, continued to see calls dominate both open interest and trading volume. Increases in options open interest can reflect hedging, premium collection by option sellers, or spread strategies, making them more useful for assessing risk appetite and identifying key areas of positioning.

      Market Structure Watch:Gold Holds 4,130; Crude Oil Eyes 94 Breakout💰📈

      English version: U.S. Dollar: 102.1–101.6 Is the Key Range On October 8, the U.S. Dollar Index rallied but failed to break above its previous high before pulling back, closing the day with a bearish candle featuring a long upper wick. In my view, near-term upward momentum has weakened somewhat. For October 9, my initial focus is on the 102.1–101.6 range. If the index continues to struggle to break decisively above resistance, a pullback in the dollar could provide support for gold.$美元指数(USDindex.FOREX)$ Gold: The Intraday Bias Remains Bullish as Long as 4,130 Holds Gold traded within a roughly $40 range on October 8, with repeated intraday swings as buyers and sellers battled for control.

      Big Options Bets: Nasdaq 30,900 Puts Build as Gold Bulls Defend $4,200—Which Side Are You On?📈📉

      The Federal Reserve raised rates by 25 basis points in September, lifting the target range for the federal funds rate to 3.75%–4.00%. With inflation pressure prompting a shift in policy, rate expectations have again become a key driver of asset prices. Options positioning on September 25 showed a defensive tilt even as Nasdaq 100 futures rebounded: traders added near-the-money puts. Gold call positions expanded at higher strikes alongside downside protection, while new Bitcoin call positions appeared to reflect a short-term test of the upside. Against the backdrop of the rate hike, traders have not moved uniformly toward risk. The next question is whether prices can confirm the signals at key levels. The charts below show trading volume and open interest across major CME Group futures opti
