GBPNZD - Bullish Stance despite initial bearish pressureGBPNZD - Despite the current bearish pressure on the pair due to the asset's allegedly impending Double Top formation, recent estimates indicate that the 2.0045 level is the best for buying again. However, since a trial is under progress, prices might not reach that point before purchasing picks back up. Though it appears to be a double top, technically it actually isn't; at least, it's not suited for trading decisions, thus the so-called double top formation is destined to fail at some point... To summarize, buy the dips on the pair with an eye toward the 2.089xxxx level as a long-term target. Heed your DD!

SNBR Hedged Options StrategyPopular smart bed company Sleep Number sells beds, mattresses, pillows and bedding related products directly to customers via 600+ retail stores, telephone order, and e-commerce. Adjustable temperature, firmness, motion sensing and automatic contouring, even snoring prevention technology are part of their luxury product catering to an aging population in the middle of a health and wellness boom -- with sleep as an increasingly buzzier part of the conversation. Americans buy 16+ million new mattresses a year, spending an average of ~$1000 per unit, making it a $12.55 billion industry. More people are relocating due to job/work-from-home opportunities and changing real estate trends (opting to buy a new mattress instead of moving an old one) -- the projected steady growth could become a surge. SNBR reports earnings Wednesday after market close, and posted beats for the previous 2 Q's. Here's one argument for the stock being undervalued. Technically minded investors might also see some promising chart patterns forming as well, and a buying opportunity after a major selloff in the last two years. However, with its recent loss of CFO and announcement that chip shortages were a challenge, an investment in SNBR would not be without uncertainty. Here's an options investing strategy that offers both downside protection and upside potential. Make a fixed 12% (22% annualized) at maturity as long as SNBR does not fall more than 23%. Further protection: SNBR can fall 31% through expiration before you start to lose any money. Hedged like this: Sell 2 $25 puts Exp 9/15/23 Capital requirement: $4472

BKI hedged options strategyBlack Knight, Inc. provides integrated software, hosting, data, and analytics services for the mortgage industry. Subsidiaries include mortgage and home equity loan application platform MSP, customer account app Servicing Digital, retention and liquidation app Loss Mitigation, loan origination systems Empower and LoanCatcher, and investor/broker community LoanSifter PPE. Black Knight also offers property ownership and lien data, automated valuation models, collateral risk scores, multiple listing service, and eSign, eClosing, and remote online notarization (RON) solutions, with plans to integrate with Wolters Kluwer's eNote and eVault for complete digitization of the mortgage application and closing process. TA-oriented investors will note a few optimistic patterns forming, as well as the CCI indicating an uptrend. But BKI also faced opposition and anti-trust regulation when it announced that it would join mortgage technology industry giant Intercontinental Exchange ICE (owner of Ellie Mae as well as the NYSE). With increased interest rates and housing inflation, will the mortgage industry take a hit? After earnings results were released Tues morning, here's a strategy that offers some downside protection while maintaining growth potential. Make a 10% yield (26% annualized) unless BKI falls more than 14% to below $54.59. Start to lose only if BKI falls by more than 19% to below $51.76 as of 7/21/23. Buy 1 $40 put Sell 2 $55 puts Exp 7/21/23 Capital requirement: $6,352

GOLD XAUUSD Sell prep, Caution!XAUUSD GOLD FOREX COMMODITIES METALS OPTIONS Despite the asset's recent price decline, signs of strength have emerged. However, estimates imply that another bearish leg could occur, targeting the 1815 Francis Sell objective and perhaps falling below 1800. A bearish move similar to that of November 2020 could be in progress, and if so, it would aim for below the 1800 level. In any case, there will be an explosion, and it would not be desirable to enter into a heated argument with furious .... Heed your DD!

EBIX Long Options StrategyInternational SaaS and technology company Ebix offers software and e-commerce services to the insurance, financial, travel and healthcare industries. It recently announced that it closed 2022 with record volumes on AnnuityNet4 (AN4) --its annuity exchange platform that handles roughly 70% of the electronic annuity transactions in the industry, integrated with partners such as Cannex, DocuSign, OneSpan, DTCC. Other areas of business include CRM, Forex, and e-learning solutions. Fundamentally, Ebix has a market cap of 623.2M and P/E of 9.47x -- with price targets from $43-150, averaging $97. TA-oriented investors may spy some consolidation into a falling wedge as well as some possible bullish momentum. But tech stocks in general are volatile in this market, and it's hard to tell if this small cap will chop or rally. With this options strategy, capture up to 12% (20% annualized) of the potential gain while also allowing EBIX room to fall 63% before losing any of the initial investment. Hedged like this: Buy 1 $20 call Sell 1 $22.5 call Sell 3 $7.5 puts Exp 9/15/23 Capital Requirement: $2239
