Hey traders how are you?
If your new here welcome
Did you get out in nature and walk this weekend?
I did, yesterday I did a solid 5 miles up and over some hills, across a few creeks, and even through one small cave with 34 of my friends, yepp 35 of us, and it was 93 out,,,
That’s some seriously good living there 😁 😁 😁 
$DJI ( ▼ 0.96% ) Weekly -2.11% Sitting on the 50 Day SMA on the daily chart
$SPY ( ▼ 1.43% ) Weekly -1.80%
$QQQ ( ▼ 1.85% ) Weekly -1.96%
$IWM ( ▼ 2.19% ) Weekly -1.60%

Yesterdays hike was fun, I mean fun / fun / fun. Did I mention it was fun?
35 people is more than normal, since covid it’s usually 12- 15 or so
A few folks were in their 50s
Most were in their 60s
8 were in their 70s
7 of those were women
Only 1 dude in his 70s ( I’m guessing 73sh )
He was the only one that couldn’t make it and had to turn and go back
But I’m proud of him, I’m proud bc he tried, he didn’t punk out, he tried

That’s what this market is going to need to get going
A big group of stocks that all move upward together
Stocks that don’t think they’re too old or too wore out ( remember 7 women in their 70s all made it happen )
And stocks that are wore out, willing to give it a go anyway

A Few Things:::
1st::: That $NVDA ( ▼ 3.28% ) trade we did this week
That is going to hands down be one of the Top 10 best trades of 2026, I can see that coming
No we didn’t make a gatrillion dollars on it. I shared the money already during the week
What we did do was this::: We followed NVDA and talked about selling Premium for a while. Right when it found itself in the middle of its long term trading range we entered going Delta Neutral. We only wanted price to move, we didn’t care which direction, but stay within its box… And we got that….

If I could replicate that everyday, heck just once a week even, wash, rinse and repeat, I might not tell anyone, but when “Bob” dropped me off in my new Rolls Royce at my new yacht filled with former super models, well that would be your sign!!! 😂 🤣 😁…. Nahhhh, I’d probably go hike “The Dolomites”
Seriously it was a no stress trade that produced ABC -123
And those are what we’re looking for right now

2nd::: Prices have now closed down 4 weeks straight, and Quad Witching is over
One thing that is sooooo beneficial to Options traders is that after these drawdowns, Options prices get ~ reset ~ to our favor. Not only the prices, but “The Greeks” that make them up also»>
ESPECIALLY now that Quad Witching is done, the I.V. rankings will be more attractive
We should be considering that with any moves forward

3rd::: WE don’t know what the president will tweet next. This market is news driven
It’s not the news that we should focus on but how the markets react
IFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF we get a “feel good tweet” we need to remain cautious that it’s not just another up day in a overall down market

Today I’m not going to share how the rest of our “friends” ( stocks ) did this week
The reason is I’ve been doing some serious scanning with all of this selloff
More importantly is I’ve been doing our 17 point checklist with Options and seeing some fresh opportunities like we had this week with NVDA
There could be some big changes coming and I plan on sharing those results over the next few days

One thing of note is the 50 Day Moving Average
Many stocks have reached it, some haven’t
Of the 4 indexes we use only the DOW has officially hit it
The Russell is between the 20 EMA and the 50 SMA
Bounces, we want bounces off of those that do hit their 50 Day M.A.s

This last week we lost 2 legends, while one was a internationally known household name, the other was no less loved by those that knew of him
Mr Chuck Norris
And everyone’s favorite Defensive Tackle “Mean Joe Green”

This weekend I’ve watched tons of Chuck Norris REELS and seen the Memes
There are soooooooooo many great ones, if you have some that you’ve seen and love send them to me. There were far too many to share here, but one spoke to me
I’m going to share it here and hope that it resonates with you too
I actually met Mr Norris once when I was in high school. It was very brief, but he was a gentleman. Many may not know this but he was incredibly funny, I mean hilarious
Check out the videos from way back when

If your over the age of 55sh you most likely remember the Mean Joe Green Coca Cola commercial, it was loved around the world

Our condolences to their families, friends and fans everywhere
May they both rest in peace
