Pre Market NOV 4, 2025

Good morning traders, how are you today?
I’m thinking today is the day I get back to normal from the time change
$DJI ( ▼ 0.48% )  
$SPY ( ▲ 0.19% )  
$QQQ ( ▲ 0.48% )
$IWM ( ▼ 0.32% )  

Stocks are down in the Pre today, there are concerns about over exposure into AI
$PLTR ( ▲ 3.35% ) is down this morning after it beat earnings yesterday afternoon, analysts have concerns over its current valuation. Funny thing is the stock itself is up over 170% for the year…. Wowww
We typically don’t talk about reasons why a stock or the markets are going south or north, we don’t care, what we do here is allow the market to act, and we then react

Stocks like $SMCI ( ▼ 2.33% )  $NVDA ( ▲ 2.17% ) and even $TSLA ( ▲ 2.59% ) are currently at Pre Market lows and dropping slightly more here. That could be algos

Yesterdays trade with NVDA should be managed carefully here
We don’t allow trades to turn into “investments”

It’s hard for one to imagine the market going south here, and this is not the play I had intended on highlighting today, but here we are..

Here at theoptionscoach.net
We don’t chase stocks
We don’t go long if a stock is red
We buy at the MID price or better
We set STOPS and HONOR them

TSLA Strangles for NOV 28, 2025
These could seem pricey, but sometimes we pay for what we get
Buy the 445 Put
Buy the 455 Call
The MID is 50.68
Here’s the caveat, this trade may go void quickly if TSLA price moves before a trader could enter at the $453.00 area, that is where it’s trading at now

If this morning is algo driven and we get a bounce then buyers will most likely step back in and step back in fast. That means price could move quickly, we will try to take advantage of that but we won’t chase, we don’t chase, it’s in our rules

Its time to grind
