Nifty Expiry Analysis and Outlook(29-08-24)In the last week (14th August Expiry), Nifty traded within a narrow range, largely hovering around the CPR (Central Pivot Range) calculated for the expiry. This week, we saw Nifty open above the Pivot, signaling a bullish reversal. The index then tested the Pivot before surging to R4, forming a strong green expiry candle. This upward move was anticipated following a week of range-bound activity. Looking ahead to next week, if history is any guide, we might expect a range-bound movement after such a strong surge. However, it's wise to remain on the long side of the market while observing how the market behaves tomorrow. I'll provide updates as the situation evolves.

$GLD Breakout and Option Strategy Spotlight with Overlay It looks like GLD 0.44%↑ finally broke out of its sideways-upward channel on Friday. Time to explore some opportunities using our Options Overlay indicator on TradingView. The current IVR is at 84, while the 62 DTE average IVx is only 19.9, making this IVx level exceptionally high for gold over the past year. On the daily chart, the Gold ETF is trading between the 6/8 and 7/8 levels. The options chain shows that calls 62 DTE are about 130% more expensive, indicating a strong bullish sentiment in the market. Examining the standard expected move (STD1), even at 4 DTE, the upside target is 237 (7/8), with the downside at 6/8. The delta curve shows the 16 delta OTM call trending upwards toward the 8/8 level, which aligns with the 250 level. Given this, I would caution against buying single-leg calls at such inflated prices. A pullback could dramatically reduce their value, and time decay will work against you. If you're determined to go bullish, a simple CALL butterfly offers a better risk-reward ratio! GLD Bullish strategy - if we are expecting rising IV Assuming further IV increases (IVx rose by 2% over the last 5 days despite a drop in VIX and a rise in the underlying), a CALL calendar spread presents a solid R:R setup. The Options Overlay quickly highlights the optimal expiry dates to target: Sep 20-27. I noticed a 4% volatility skew between these dates. The standard expected move (STD1) and delta16 suggest an upward probability range capped at 245, meaning there's an 86% chance that AMEX:GLD stays below this level by Sep 20. Here's my setup in this case: GLD Sep 20th - Sep 27th 245 Calendar Call Spread. This spread, spotted in under a minute on TradingView, offers nearly 8x risk-reward, but it's beneficial only if you're betting on continued IV increases.

NVDA Nvidia Buy the Dip OpportunityIf you haven`t bought NVDA before the breakout: It's important to note that the leading company in Artificial Intelligence is currently trading at a Forward P/E ratio of 29.48. This valuation suggests it might be relatively inexpensive for investors considering a long-term position. Given the company's strong market position and growth potential in the AI sector, this could be an opportune time to enter, especially if you believe in the sustained growth and innovation of the industry. The Forward P/E ratio is a key indicator of expected future earnings and, at this level, it indicates that Nvidia is reasonably priced in comparison to its future earning potential. My price target for the end of the year is $140-145.

$BABA volatility pricing skew on CALL side before earningsThe high vertical CALL pricing skew on the options chain shows that the CALL options for the September expiration are already much more expensive than the PUT options at the same expected move distance. This suggests that market participants are pricing in an upward move. Let's take a closer look at the probability curve formed by the options chain. I'm very curious to see whether the 8/8 to +1/8 quadrant line will hold the price for BABA, or if it will continue to surge into the Upper Extreme quadrant, heading towards +4/8 until $100. If everything stays the same, something like this could be an interesting lottery ticket for me. I'm thinking about an OTM call butterfly with a short expiration before earnings. I have to admit, I’m not a big fan of risking on this red/black roulette type of play, but if things stay as they are, I might consider combining it with a 40 or 68DTE credit put ratio below and the call butterfly above before earnings. But we'll see how things look on the day before earnings!

Retest of the Lows, Rocket Ride up from Here?Here we are. Just you, me, and a strange serious of price action events with NVDA... So, how do we read this in the short-term future? I always start with a Daily Chart (1D). MACD and RSI are overdue for a little pop towards the upside. After a retest of the lows, NVDA bounced off what we can now call Support at 97. Our initial price targets still stand. In the short-term, 511. After that, the next leg up is 514. Today, the market manipulators started to release the recovery news. Keep in mind, it's Ms. Market's job to ensure growth and stability in the market. Jobless claims were presumably "not as bad" as they previously stated. Right, okay. Anyway, who cares? We're not trading feelings, we're trading options. Moving forward, the market closes higher swinging into Friday as we use volatility as our friend to secure profits with expirations further out. I'd call this phase, "safe swinging". Let's see how the market reacts EOW. Thanks for tuning in.

Nifty Index View [Expiry: 08-08-2024]After a notable expiry week characterized by significant activity, the current Nifty expiry week commenced under less favorable conditions. This analysis explores the Nifty Index from both the expiry candle and options technical perspective to provide a comprehensive view of the market dynamics. Expiry Candle Analysis: This week's expiry candle started at the pivot point but closed below it, suggesting an initial bearish momentum. If the downtrend continue, the next support could be expected around 24,575, which aligns with S1 of the expiry pivot. Further decline might test the S2 at 24,415 - a pivotal level as it also corresponds to last week's expiry low. In terms of resistance, Pivot, TC (Top Central), and BC (Bottom Central) could serve as key barriers in the short term. The analysis leverages Fibonacci pivot calculations based on the expiry OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) data. Historically, a relatively quiet week often follows a highly active expiry week. Given this pattern, the current week might lean towards a neutral or slightly negative close, echoing the subdued sentiment post-high volatility periods. Options Analysis: Instead of focusing on volume or open interest, this review emphasizes a technical assessment of the options chain. Technical ratings added to the monthly expiry options reveal that: Call Options: Moving Averages are indicating a strong sell signal, with Oscillators showing a mix of neutral and sell signals, suggesting bearish expectations. Put Options: Moving Averages are mostly neutral while Oscillators are leaning towards buy signals, indicating some expectation of upward price movements yet underscored by caution. Near Term Options Outlook(Current Expiry): Call Side: Signals are overwhelmingly negative, pointing towards bearish market expectations. Put Side: Presents mixed signals, which could imply uncertainty or a potential for slight recovery, but the overall sentiment remains cautiously pessimistic. Conclusion: Both the expiry candle and technical indicators from the options chain suggest a market leaning towards a neutral to negative closure for the current expiry period. Traders should consider integrating additional data and analyses to corroborate these findings and refine their market strategies.

PG The Procter & Gamble Company Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t bought PG before the previous earnings: Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of PG The Procter & Gamble Company prior to the earnings report this week, I would consider purchasing the 165usd strike price Puts with an expiration date of 2024-9-20, for a premium of approximately $2.05. If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
