DG Trading Setup: Capitalizing on RangeDollar General has experienced a stabilization phase following its Q1 2025 results, with same-store sales increasing 2.4% and revenue growing 5.3% to $10.4 billion. The company has regained traction in the discount retail space, mitigating previous challenges related to shrink and operational inefficiencies. Institutional Flow & Market Positioning Recent institutional flow highlights large orders in DG’s 115 call and 110 put, signaling either: - A range-bound setup, where smart money expects the stock to stay between $110-$115 in the near term. - Potential volatility, with institutions hedging both directions ahead of an unexpected move. Considering the ATR (18) and standard deviation (7.353), this aligns with a low-breakout probability, making range-based strategies the optimal play. The absence of earnings between now and July further supports sideways movement expectations. Options Trade Setup: Iron Condor To capitalize on premium decay and IV contraction, I’m structuring an iron condor: - Sell 115 Call / Buy 120 Call - Sell 110 Put / Buy 105 Put This strategy ensures limited risk while collecting premium in a high-probability range trade.

DG Developing Impulse [LONG]1. The Big Picture: Wave Structure Down-trend Completion A five-wave decline (labelled “5” at the bottom, ≈ $69.56) finishes in early March 2025. Complex Correction (W-X-Y) From December 2024 into March 2025 the market chops out a W-X-Y sideways correction between roughly $70–83. New Uptrend (Impulse) Wave 1 up to $84.53 Wave 2 pullback into the 0.5–0.707 zone ($77.05 | 75.28 | 73.95) Wave 3 powerful thrust into the high-90s Wave 4 shallow retrace into the mid-$80s Wave 5 of 3 (current leg) pushing into the low-$100s 2. Current Position: Subwave 5 of Wave 3 Price now: $101.39 We appear to be in the 5th subwave of the larger Wave 3. That means one more small thrust higher is likely before Wave 3 completes. 3. Target Zone for Wave 3 The 1.618 × Wave 1→3 extension sits at 104.18. The grey box (~$103–$106) marks our Wave 3 target. Traders often look to take partial profits as price enters this zone. 4. Key Support / Invalidation Levels Short-term bump: 23.6% of Wave 4→5, at ≈ $100.00 Primary support: old Wave 4 high / 38.2% retracement, at ≈ $97.50 Invalidation: a clear break below $97.50 would argue that the Wave 5 advance is failing (and could reopen a deeper correction). 5. What Happens After Wave 3? Once Wave 3 tops out (~104–106), expect a Wave 4 correction of that entire impulse. Typical Wave 4 depth is 38.2% of Wave 3: that would put a pullback into roughly $90–92. After Wave 4 completes, a final Wave 5 higher would target new all-time highs. 6. Trading Plan Ideas Long exposure: add on small dips down to $100–$100.50, keep stops under $97.50. Partial profit: begin scaling out as price enters $103–$106. Watch for reversal signals (e.g. bearish divergence, high-volume down days) once inside the grey box—this will mark the end of the impulsive Wave 3. Bottom line: DG is in the late stages of a textbook Elliott-Wave 3, with one last run higher into the $104–$106 zone likely, then a healthy multi-week pullback (Wave 4) should follow. Keep your stops under $97.50 and look to lock in profits as you approach that extension target.

Bullish Spike on DG: Consumer Staples playI think that people might hate this pick... but I love "hated" tickers. NYSE:DG came up on my 30m Spike scan this morning amid a sea of red and tanking "risk on" stocks. This indicates some interesting opening price action this morning as a "hey, come look at me!" This action is happening in the context of a clear rotation into "safe" stocks like Consumer Staples and Utilities; DG is renowned for being a Consumer Staple. The logic is that people will still need to buy basic good, no matter what, and Dollar General's brand is to sell these at low costs to Consumers. Dollar General experienced a meteoric rise (and fall) due to what analysts attribute as a rapid OVER-expansion. Anecdotally, I recall a newly built location in rural Georgia that I pass by frequently on trips to see family that opened, closed, and in just recent weeks was renovated and re-opened. Either way, I like a stock that everyone thinks is dead that more importantly has come to a decadal low, matching with Volume Profile support, that was also the technical Support that launched the prior rally. Furthermore, on the Daily there is a clear path for a good Ichimoku Breakout that taking the stock now lets one get the jump on. A full Daily breakout would reverse the bear trend since last April.
