$NVDA$ Looking at the option flows, NVDA's upcoming earnings next week don't seem to have any substantial impact on the stock's trend. Seeing that large sell call order at the 205 strike for March 13th $NVDA 20260313 205.0 CALL$  tells me the market still expects the top to hold. The main issue is that the AI sector trend is too transparent—there are no major off-exchange catalysts to add fuel. What the market really needs is a groundbreaking use case or a significant leap forward. Anything beyond that is already priced in, just burning through valuation. That said, with earnings approaching, implied volatility is picking up, which means more premium for sellers to harvest. For now, the range holds through early March: 1

Squeeze the Shorts, Continue Range-Bound

Positive news from OpenAI, with monthly growth rate recovering by 10%, directly ignited a short squeeze on Monday, crushing the bears. However, subsequent market action will likely continue with sector rotation. $NVDA$ Both large bullish and bearish single-leg orders appeared (not a spread): $NVDA 20260220 175.0 PUT$ , 64,000 contracts opened. $NVDA 20260220 207.5 CALL$ , 78,000 contracts opened. Based on the overall opening activity, the price is highly likely to continue oscillating within the large 170-190 range from this week into next. Therefore, the 207.5 call is quite intriguing; currently, it seems difficult for the price to break above 200 even

TRADE PLAN for Wednesday 📈 $S&P 500(.SPX)$ consolidation day today but SPX managed to hold above 6921. SPX all about that 7000 resistance this month. Once SPX can get through 7700 coming this year. BE PATIENT. Wait for it. $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ had lots of relative strength today for once. As long as TSLA can hold above 414 we should see 440-450 this month. TSLA Feb 13 435C can work above 424 $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ stuck in this wide range from 610-629 for now. Once QQQ reclaims 618 we'll see a push back to 622-629 again.

Brace for Next Week's Storm

Checked the 300k contract VIX 35 call position $VIX 20260318 35.0 CALL$ , it's still open, suggesting the correction is not yet over. $NVDA$ Next week continues the search for a bottom. A large bearish order opened: the weekly expiry 157.5 put $NVDA 20260213 157.5 PUT$ , with 60,000 contracts for a total notional of over $6 million. Therefore, tonight's rally is more suitable for selling calls. Consider strikes above 190: $NVDA 20260213 190.0 CALL$  I noticed institutions opened a 177.5–182.5 call spread for next week $NVDA 20

【Options Insight】Weekly Options Roundup: Profits Amid Tech & Precious Metals Swings

U.S. markets have seen intense volatility across tech, precious metals, and semiconductors. These moves create prime options trading opportunities. Let’s dive into our community’s standout plays turning market swings into profits[Cool]! Palantir’s Q4 earnings report has stirred up the markets. The company posted 70% year-over-year revenue growth, blowing past market expectations of 62%. However, the stock has seen wild swings. It’s down 22% so far in 2026, with a 7% gain followed by a 12% drop in the two days post-earnings. With a P/E ratio exceeding 200x, concerns over an AI-driven valuation bubble have weighed on sentiment. Palantir’s growth is fueled by its unique deployment model. It combines AIP, Ontology, and AI forward-deployed engineers to help customers realize product value quick

The Plunge Arrived Ahead of Schedule

You probably remember the 300k contract VIX call orders we mentioned a couple of days ago: $VIX 20260218 35.0 CALL$  $VIX 20260318 35.0 CALL$ . Unexpectedly, the sell-off has begun so quickly. Currently, it looks like a bottom will be formed before mid-March, presenting a great buying opportunity at that time. $NVDA$ Regarding this collective pullback in the AI sector, there's not much to elaborate on. The fact that there are fewer investable assets in the market is not a good sign. Looking back to 2025, it was a vibrant market where one could pick winners with ease—that was the best environment, not just for investing but for AI development itself. Althou

Massive 300k Contract VIX Order Opened, Guard Against Sudden Plunge

$VIX$ Another massive bullish volatility order has appeared. The March 18th expiry 35 call $VIX 20260318 35.0 CALL$  traded 300,000 contracts for a total notional value of over $20 million. Opened around the same time was the February 18th expiry 35 call $VIX 20260218 35.0 CALL$ , trading 250,000 contracts. Based on SPY's option activity, the probability of a major decline this week seems low. However, historical patterns suggest a non-negligible chance of a correction starting in late February. $GOOGL$ Google now enjoys the privilege of Monday & Wednesday weekly expiry options, though none expire on its actual earnings day.

It's Time to Buy the Dip in Apple

$AAPL$ Apple has seen a large bullish call order. The May 15th expiry 285 call $AAPL 20260515 285.0 CALL$  had 69,000 contracts opened, with a total notional value of approximately $34+ million. Although I believe Apple's performance this year may still be weighed down by high memory prices, this doesn't prevent the market and large investors from perceiving a potential bottom. With earnings this week, selling the 250 put is an option: $AAPL 20260130 250.0 PUT$ . $FXI$ Regarding the large bearish China ETF orders, I discovered someone shared my analysis in a group, causing some panic. However, a massive, deep out-of-the-money bearish order like

Observing Short-Dated Option Activity

$NVDA$ This week marks the launch of Monday and Wednesday weekly expiry options. For these new short-dated contracts, we'll observe for a week before formulating strategies. Overall, NVDA's price is expected to remain below 195 this week. Institutions continue selling the 195 call $NVDA 20260206 195.0 CALL$ , hedged by buying the 200 call $NVDA 20260206 200.0 CALL$ . The lower bound is more nuanced. 170 remains a potential target, but stability around 190 cannot be ruled out. Analyzing open interest for the Feb 2nd and Feb 4th expiries suggests the possibility of a minor pullback in NVDA following earnings from AMD or Google. $AMD$ The rise of agentic

【Options Insight】Weekly Options Roundup: Tech and Healthcare Swings Drive Community Profits

As market volatility shifts across tech and healthcare, our community of options traders is quick to capitalize. Microsoft’s Q2 earnings report has stirred up the markets. The company posted $81.27 billion in total revenue, with its Intelligent Cloud segment hitting $32.91 billion. While Azure grew 38% year-over-year, the 1% slowdown from last quarter left some investors wanting more. Meanwhile, a record $37.5billion in capital expenditure on AI “super factories” and data centers has raised concerns over when these investments will pay off. On the AI front, Microsoft launched its new Maia 200 inference chip and now counts 15 million Copilot enterprise licenses, but it still trails rivals like Google and remains heavily reliant on OpenAI. This dependency adds a layer of uncertainty to its o

Mega $10M+ Order Sells Calls on Gold ETF, Signaling a Potential Top

$GLD$ Today, scanning large orders, I was startled to see a massive call buy on the Gold ETF: $GLD 20260213 505.0 CALL$ , with 80,000 contracts traded for a total notional value of $71.33 million. Later, I discovered an equally large sell call order. Placed simultaneously, they likely constitute a paired, combination order—specifically, a Bear Call Spread: Sell Call $GLD 20260213 495.0 CALL$ , Buy Call $GLD 20260213 505.0 CALL$ . This positions for GLD to be below 495 by February 13th, with the long 505 call serving as protection. At this stage, the conviction behind a sell call order c

Massive 230k Contract Deep Out-of-the-Money China ETF Put Order

$FXI$ The March 20th expiry 33 put saw a massive purchase of 230,000 contracts over Tuesday and Wednesday. Although the trade price was only around $0.17, the sheer volume resulted in a total notional value exceeding $3 million. The current FXI price is $39. The delta for the 33 strike is only 0.069. Trades at this level are typically bets on a "black swan" event, with notional values in the tens of thousands. Spending millions on this is essentially throwing money away. Therefore, the trader either has genuine insider knowledge of a major impending negative event or holds an enormous long portfolio and needs to hedge against a potential flash crash. In either case, it signals expectations of a significant volatility spike. The profit mechanism for such deep OTM options isn't just the pric
