Two powerful tools that transform options complexity into clear signals...
🌅 Good Morning Reader! Have you ever wondered when the market is about to make its next big move? Yes, it’s great that we have charts, indicators, and technical patterns – but those tools tend to be "surface level". What if I told you there's a way to see the market's underlying balance - or imbalance - that most people completely miss? Today we're diving into two powerful sentiment indicators that can help you understand when the market is primed for a major shift (or when a trend is likely...
[GammaEdge] The profit-taking sweet spots
🌅 Good Morning Reader! You know that moment when your trade is working perfectly? You're riding a strong trend, momentum is building, and there's no obvious resistance level in sight. Then suddenly - without any catalyst or news - price hits an invisible wall and reverses hard. No major technical level No round number No obvious supply zone Just a seemingly random reversal that kills your momentum and leaves you wondering "what the heck just happened?" What you likely encountered was a...
Stop taking profits at random levels
Here's a video walkthrough of today's content if you'd prefer watching rather than reading: You've mastered support and resistance, moving averages, maybe even Fibonacci levels. But have you ever wondered why the price seems to stall or reverse at levels that don't show up anywhere on your charts?

Who's really on the other side of your options trades?
Before progressing further into the GammaEdge methodology and tools, we need to understand a critical component of modern markets: the Market Makers and Dealers who operate behind the scenes. Think of them as the plumbing in your house - essential to how everything functions, but invisible in daily life. Without them, markets would be inefficient, illiquid, and prone to massive price gaps. Yet paradoxically, their very actions in managing risk can amplify market movements, creating...
Our 100% mechanical strategy (that significantly outperforms SPY)
Have you ever had a trade that looked perfect on paper—clean technical setup, solid fundamentals, everything aligned—only to watch it immediately move against you the moment you entered? Or maybe you've experienced the opposite frustration: identifying a great opportunity but hesitating to pull the trigger, only to watch the stock rocket higher without you.

How options reveal where markets are headed next...

SPX zero-days-to-expiration (0DTE) options alone now make up over 50% of all SPX options trading, with over $1 trillion in notional value changing hands daily.
