BKKT Short Float 84.72% ! Ready for an Epik Gamma Squeeze ???BKKT perfectly touched the institutional support level of the Fibonnaci 0.618 retracement and now we see a doji trend reversal candle!
According to Finviz, the Short Float is 84.72%! I haven`t seen such a level since the GME gammasqueeze play!
About BKKT:

Looks like we've got another mystery on our hands.Hey, you guys, look, I know I'm just the dude that carries the bags.
If you want to know what happened with GME in January watch this .
Most interest to me is the selling of puts
It's good to get a basic understanding of Gamma and Vanna exposures for market makers.
The important takeaway is "market makers who are long puts, or long gamma, By knowing how market makers will be forced to delta hedge according to changes in price, one can implicitly know where market makers will need to place buy and sell orders"
In the video at 4:14 in the video explains why GME has been following the patterns I followed in this chart
At this point, I'm fairly certain GME will remain around 180 until Nov15-19 and possible through to the end of the 1yr is when the market makers pnl profile will change to meet the end of 1yr options contracts.
so much for free market price discovery.
Just wait until you see what I have in store for my next mystery.
IRNT: RUG PULL OR SQUEEZEIRNT: depending on where IRNT goes in the pre-market can determine which price action
This bearish looking wedge we have formed is on top of a critical support zone.
~If 35 breaks, we can see a dip all the way to 22. Why?
~There is a gap to fill on the down. ranges 21.30-24.50. All previous gaps have fill on the down except this one.
~If IRNT does release a share offering like some are predicting it will, price will inevitably go down and could be another reason for the dip.
~If 44.50 is broken, we could see price action to 55 and maybe even 60
~Note that during hours there were no call contracts past 60 bucks (interesting though may not matter)
~WSB has had huge rallies saying this stock will squeeze like there is no tomorrow. Be ready to go up and up if another squeeze occurs and don't forget to take profit when you wanna screenshot.
DOWN DOWN DOWN (support zones):
~Note that these zone may provide resistance to a rug pull. The italicized zones will give the most fight.
~35 - 37
~30.90 - 32.55
~29.25 - 30.21
~27.20 - 28
GME Gamestop higher than expected net loss Yesterday i saw two times more puts than calls on the options chain for GME.
Gamestop reported adjusted net loss of 76 cents a share and net sales of $1.18 billion.
The analysts consensus called for an adjusted net loss of 67 cents a share and sales of $1.12 billion.
Let`s wait for a pullback to the key support levels then.
Gamma squeeze setup for VIH, ready to burstOptions chain is setup, short interest currently at 40% (Fintel)
You could also wait for breakout confirmation, but this will minimize gains a bit.
Besides, no standard price action in these types of situations.
There's an inefficiency in price action at 17.00 to 17.20, this should get filled at some point.
So main target is 17.20, but leave a runner as option chain for Oktober is starting to build up to 17.50 as well
Options data for 17 Sept from yahoo finance:
12.5: 50k volume, 12k open interest
15: 16k volume
Thoughts?
GME and Wyckoff's Composite Man“…all the fluctuations in the market and in all the various stocks should be studied as if they were the result of one man’s operations. Let us call him the Composite Man, who, in theory, sits behind the scenes and manipulates the stocks to your disadvantage if you do not understand the game as he plays it; and to your great profit if you do understand it.” (The Richard D. Wyckoff Course in Stock Market Science and Technique, section 9, p. 1-2)
Wyckoff advised retail traders to try to play the market game as the Composite Man played it. In fact, he even claimed that it doesn't matter if market moves “are real or artificial; that is, the result of actual buying and selling by the public and bona fide investors or artificial buying and selling by larger operators.” (The Richard D. Wyckoff Method of Trading and Investing in Stocks, section 9M, p. 2)
Based on his years of observations of the market activities of large operators, Wyckoff taught that:
The Composite Man carefully plans, executes and concludes his campaigns.
The Composite Man attracts the public to buy a stock in which he has already accumulated a sizeable line of shares by making many transactions involving a large number of shares, in effect advertising his stock by creating the appearance of a “broad market.”
One must study individual stock charts with the purpose of judging the behavior of the stock and the motives of those large operators who dominate it.
With study and practice, one can acquire the ability to interpret the motives behind the action that a chart portrays. Wyckoff and his associates believed that if one could understand the market behavior of the Composite Man, one could identify many trading and investment opportunities early enough to profit from them.
Wyckoff's composite man theories, price cycles, schematics of accumulation/distribution and three laws have helped me a great deal in understanding how markets work.
Just as important has been Cem Karsan . The 19th I mapped out in this chart of a buy the dip trend:
was originally identified by Cem since 2020 as the Fed pumping stimulus (liquidity) into the markets. The Fed stimulus creates a well fed Gary (ape).
Gary is what people in vol markets refer to as how the majority of market markers are positioned for volatility. If a majority of MMs are long vol (well fed ape) it makes it harder for the underlying structure of the market to break down (corrections). Karsan identified this cycle of (dips) as a result of end of MM and HF 20 day cycles. With so much liquidity in the stock markets right now a well fed gary creates a pinning effect in major indexes for expiring contracts /hedging cycles.
Using order flow (supply / demand) of major derivatives, Karsan is able to identify market support/resistance levels from volatility hedges and dozens of other factors with weekly/monthly pin point accuracy.
What I think is causing all the short squeezes lately (AMC, SPRT, etc..) is that more people are identifying this cycle. All the short squeezes started up again at this wyckoff markup phase.
Gamestop is one of the OG short squeezes and the effects of these cycles/phases are clear in the charts now. There are several posts on popular subreddits related to these phases/cycles going back to the original short squeeze in Jan.
The thing with Gamestop are the Wyckoff price cycles are diminishing in volume and I don't know what that means.
Is there hidden rationality beyond irrationality?Gama Squeeze Happens between Quadruple Witching Dates
When stock prices experience rapid shifts, the conditions may be ripe for a squeeze. In this scenario, investors may find themselves buying or selling shares of stock outside their normal trading pattern in order to minimize losses. A gamma squeeze is an extreme example of this, in which investor buying activity forces a stock’s price up. Gamma squeezes are often associated with options trading and they can be problematic for investors who don’t fully understand how they work.
A short squeeze is a specific type of stock squeeze. With a short squeeze, an increase in stock prices can force people who shorted the stock to buy back their shares.
How a Gamma Squeeze Works
Certain conditions have to be met for a gamma squeeze to manifest in the market. It starts with investors making assumptions about a particular stock’s price. Specifically, they assume that the stock will rise in price.
This leads to buying short-dated call options in the stock on a large scale. A call option’s value increases when the underlying stock it’s associated with increases in value. Meanwhile, this puts the institutional investors selling the options in a short position.
If this pattern continues with investors sinking more money into call potions, that can force institutional investors to buy more shares of the stock. This is a necessary step for hedging against the short position they now find themselves in.
The gamma squeeze happens when the underlying stock’s price begins to go up very quickly within a short period of time. As more money flows into call options from investors, that forces more buying activity which can lead to higher stock prices. Investors who purchased call options and sell when stock prices are high can reap sizable profits but the institutional investors who had to cover their short positions might see significant losses.

As you see all these spike patterns happened between Quadruple Witching Dates!
What Is Quadruple Witching?
Quadruple witching refers to a date on which stock index futures, stock index options, stock options, and single stock futures expire simultaneously. While stock options contracts and index options expire on the third Friday of every month, all four asset classes expire simultaneously on the third Friday of March, June, September, and December.

GME Gamestop Strong Support AreaGME Gamestop lost some traction on WSB recently, which made me think about a possible retracement to a support level that i might considering reentering this stock.
And that support is around the 130usd area!
I am looking forward to read your opinion on where GME Gamestop is heading now!
Strength of $WISH Breakout implies 51% move to the upside#WallStreetBets and undervalued meme favorite $WISH
has the potential to reach $21 as it recovers from massive
shorting and naked shorting with the help of #APES and
retail investors. The move could even "slingshot" in the
same way that we have seen other Reddit #shortsqueeze
plays have given that it has been identified as a GAMMA SQUEEZE
candidate by experts at Spot Gamma www.youtube.com
GNUS SHORTSQUEEZE COMMENCINGFollow please! I am new!
Do you see that? That my friends, is the beginning of something glorious. I know its hard to believe right now, but this stock is going to be very popular.
The shows they are broadcasting are becoming quickly popular and they just landed multiple AAA contracts with companies like McDonalds, WalMart, and many many more.
It has a reputation of massive shorts squeezing and many people want another taste of its juices. This will turbocharge the climbs to a whopping 34$!
it would seem that it just barely broke the resistances and is starting to break the downtrend.
The MACD is a little overcooked at the moment, but it is trailing so i am not too concerned long.
I would expect a slight pull back but the coming weeks should be really interesting!
