We are going to quite literally open markets up by 100 points on ES and 400 points on NQ as China wakes up and buys the dip.

I scalped it on the way back down in the ES. Made $1,900+\- a few dollars. The hardest part was letting it pull back on the candle then shorting and when it stopped going down closing quickly and wait for it to pull back again and repeat.

Check ES/NQ right now, I admit my timing was a bit off but eventually we will have a pullback and break lows. Powell never said anything bullish in the meeting and is obviously just delaying his hawkish tone lol. The markets rallied when Powell said the next decision likely won't be a rate hike, however that was already largely known. Otherwise, it was just all fluff

Nailed it! If he were to actually track his trades and make his spreadsheet readily available to all his members at all times he wouldn't be able to run his scam. It's all about sub Money to him. Between his 0DTE Room and his ATM Program he is bringing in well over $100K/Month on sub money. He routinely takes $20K + losses on 0DTE NDX trades. They are not tracked or talked about. He lost $55K a few days ago but is bragging pon Twitter that he is uop $150K YTD on 0DTE trades. He made a mistake in late 2022 and showed his Tastytrade account balances showing he was down $170,000. He has a trade called the Theta Fairy. It's a 1 DTE /ES Strangle designed to make $100 overnight. Last August he got in trouble and started rolling it for several weeks. When it got to about 250 points ITM he closed it for a $15K Loss. Now he is back at it doing the trade and bragging on Twitter "How nice is it to wake up to an extra $100 before starting your trading day" The guy is a toal disaster and I'm just trying to bring some visibility to his Scam

$CLH Clean Harbors  Q1 adjusted EPS $1.29, consensus $1.16    Reports Q1 revenue $1.38B, consensus $1.34B.  “Strong demand for our services resulted in a better-than-expected performance in the first quarter” said Mike Battles, co-CEO.  “We delivered record Q1 Adjusted EBITDA, driving year-over-year margin improvement. Our Environmental Services (ES) segment once again led the way. ES continues to benefit from a growing interest in our broad array of services, high-value disposal and recycling waste streams, pricing execution and an expanding project pipeline, fueled by customer demand. Although the Safety-Kleen Sustainability Solutions (SKSS) segment started slowly in Q1, recent improvements in base oil pricing and ongoing initiatives are encouraging. As always, safety is our first priority. We achieved a good start to the year with a first-quarter Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) of 0.69”

Brokers will usually only use financially settled contracts. In other words, there is no delivery. If, for whatever reason, you are trading on a delivery settlement contract, the risk management team will take you out at their will (most likely within the week of expiration). Obviously for financial instruments, like /ES and /NQ, there’s no possible delivery as a whole. TDLR: Don’t worry about delivery. If you want information about if there is risk of it with your broker, ask your broker

ES 5141 is serious resistance for some reason today. Market has rejected numerous times. If it does break through there will be a nice run up taking a lot of stocks with it.

ClenAndOptions

TSLA down 2%PM is more or less noise from ES movement

lobeams

That sounds better. ;) My general practice is I don't open a 0DTE trade until after 10:00 - 10:30 am ET since the market has a bad habit of reversing right about then. I spend that time doing a "market weather report." By that I mean I review financial news, ES, VIX, ADSPD, DXY, etc. If the market looks bullish, I buy a vertical call spread on SPX or XSP based on the expected move. If it looks bearish, I buy the same with puts. If I place the order after noon, I make it a 1DTE rather than 0DTE. And lately I'm leaning toward 1DTE more in all trades because if I'm wrong on my directional prediction for today, it's likely to revert toward the mean the next day and at least reduce my loss if not turn into a profit. And on days like this Wed when the FOMC speaks, I don't do anything.

BarbellPadawan

Should I do something really stupid and buy a 5/3 50 delta call on /ES? They are only $1500 or so. I think a flip for +500$ might be easy money. But also if I do, market guaranteed to tank next 4 days.

tall_giraffe3232

Depends on futures, the ES wasn’t able to establish 5150 as support, so until that happens I’m not bullish on spy

FamiliarPermission

For zero days left until expiry options, SPY stops trading at 4:15pm Eastern, ES and SPX stop at 4pm Eastern.

The ES Bears had em on the ropes. Knocking the snot out of the bulls. Then went to the Wendy's dumpster for some extra-curricular activities.

PapaCharlie9

Not sure why you would care as an investor, unless you mean you are looking for a job at such a fund? Hedge funds might have discounts for trading /ES in volume over options on SPX, so the decision on what instrument to use could be influenced more by overhead costs or other limitations, like dollar volume. Insisting on SPX options only could be sub-optimal for any given institution.

Terakahn

Theoretically. Depends how you manage it. You'd probably have more success selling options on ES than trying to wheel spy

Scruffy-Nerd

Full port 1 SPX contract ATM or close to it, at open Monday. Watch PM /ES and $SPY to find trend. Set SL/TP once the numbers turn green, chase stop every 10% or so.

Sofiarae123

Go back to the week of august 24 2023 and you’ll see we are running this same market fractal. Use ES. They are nearly identical.

**Never forget how they stole every move from you in premarket. ** Yesterday /ES futures hit 5130. Today 5140. We’re gonna open 25 points lower. That’s why you gotta trade futures kiddo

Been trading ES futures lately and everything just seems so much easier. I guess because that is the basis of the market and SPY and Stocks move off of futures.

Terrible idea. News events are going to drive markets crazy when there’s less volume in the off hours. Look how haywire futures went on ES, CL, GC and others just last Thursday evening when Israel attacked Iran again. 24/7 trading is going to break something.

WhereIsMyYacht

im in $15k worth of /ES 5200 calls expiring Friday

need-coffee-34

filling the ES gap i guess

fireat25

I use interactive brokers so I’m not sure how it works with other brokerages, but trading futures options is essentially the same as regular options but with larger spreads due to far lower volume. Trading actual futures, on the other hand, is slightly different because you’re basically forced to use margin to trade, for example a single contract of ES (basically equivalent to SPY) is worth ~250k so if the price goes up or down by even a small percentage your port value moves massively

DriveNew

Yeah. I’m waiting for backtest of a lost trendline and will gauge reaction there. That daily ES wick from Friday looks like a form of capitulation for the bears.

Ok_Response_6913

/ES with the historical reenactment of Friday’s price action. Puts for me on anything above 4800.

Educational-Air-685

ES futures opened almost 2 hours ago. You may want to keep an eye out on how SPY will react tomorrow after 3 weeks of closing in red.

Ok-Elderberrygrower

Gap in /ES

OurNewestMember

One way is to look at the extrinsic value for very deep ITM options expiring a few weeks out -- is it less than zero? (European). "But the CME website describes contract specs, including the exercise style!" you cry. Yes, and the website may not be right, and the website includes contracts your broker doesn't support. That being said, AFAIK, for ES, the AM-settled are American, and the rest are European. GC and CL are American. I think all ZN are American. I don't think options on the micros follow the same settlement deliverable (eg, physical/cash), but I would assume they are the same exercise style as on the corresponding e-mini/"main" contracts.

strismystr

AFAIK, all the options are european style but for options like ES only the quarterly expiries expire to cash — everything else for ES expires to contracts

EntrepreneurFunny469

Qqq is more fun for puts. If tech is suffering buy qqq puts. However spy has the best liquidity and ES1 futes are where smart people play.

surreel

Personally, I would recommend using the futures instruments, so /NQ for QQQ and /ES for SPY. I do all of my trading of swing shares using the futures as a general guide. For example, on /NQ we are sitting at an anchored vwap that is from Oct lows. Now, I have confluence and see that AMD is sitting just above its 200MA. Does this mean the market will bottom? God no. But, it gives me an area to build a position in case I have extra cash. Rather than just DCA’ing all the time. However, DCA’ing is still a powerful tool. In this most recent drop, I was able to avoid the now 10% decline and just recently started adding shares.

Fluffy-Gift-7634

ES (futures) hit the 200 SMA overnight Thursday to Friday and the Friday candle now is an impressive bullish hammer

humidhaney

Your first mistake is trading on Robinhood.  Can’t chart for shit.  Follow someone on Twitter who tracks levels of the SPY or ES. Set up TradingView and link to Tradestation. Set the levels.  Trade them in daily options religiously. 

-Dreamville-

Trade At the money 0dte /ES futures options 30 min before close , your gonna want to watch it also ,gonna get spicy

trillionmarketcap

Depends on the ticker, ES and NQ sentiment, VIX and any catalysts. You need to let your 0dtes ride and not paper hand with a small win like a pussy. I'd say on a day like today when your OTM goes few strikes ITM or at least a 10X your original investment you can sell half and then ride the rest until an hour before market close. Or until market close if there's enough momentum and consistently elevating IV (puts consistently held their value even during any spikes upward) Today NVDA and SCMI puts had some hundred baggers. Even if you lose five fridays in a row, one strangle on a black swan style friday will wipe out all your previous losses. The point is having significantly larger wins than losses. 0dtes, though high risk have insanely high rewards which is why one needs to detach emotionally with a predetermined amount

-Dreamville-

I spent the last hour of the day scalping 0dte /ES calls and puts, don’t think I held one more than 3 min , most fun I’ve had trading possibly ever, and had 4 positive and only 1 trade I lost money, and it was small amount. The swings are crazy, intense as hell

steveplaysguitar

If I'm being honest right now I'm still catastrophically depressed despite having gone short /ES a few weeks ago. Life's tough right now even when your portfolio is alright.

Royal-Tough4851

This is why I like trading ES contracts (options or direct futures). You aren’t stuck on the sidelines after hours if something moves your direction in a big way. I know SPX trades after hours now, but liquidity is still suspect and some brokers don’t support it

the_humeister
