Did the scan from #304 return CRM for you? If not, which scan are you using?
#304

Not sure which version.

This is for short, you can swap bottom 2 lines for long.

Did you get in any of those tickers you called out yesterday? My best guess is a 1.5% market gap up followed by a dump of some of the market gains at open. You may not get ideal entries if you didn't already pick up some shares.
No, I was thinking I will get in this morning but they all gapped up. I might have to change how I execute the trades.
 
Yes. I guess we need to have enough short trades or hedge as well.
I do options. overnight swings 50/50 so its risky. I rather scan right after the bell and get in. if we have better strategy Ill take that :)
EDIT: I scan right after the bell and got signals and went for TGT and it turned out beautiful. Calls up %200

What would you do if it gaps up? Would you still get into the trade? I do options as well. For CRM I sold PUT 30 mins after the bell.

I dont feel safe with selling puts somehow. I use ATR and looking at momentum whats my possibility and predict how much stock can move on daily. (I apply regular ATR)

I will only sell PUTs in the stock which I don't mind holding if I get assigned. If I get assigned, I will do the Wheel strategy.
 
hi @YungTraderFromMontana , Thanks for sharing this script and Appreciate your sincere effort & guidance. Im new to tos scripting and a swing trader so Im looking for key signal indicators in a day/weekly chart and then move into 1H chart on next day to open the trades.
I've loaded your study and trying to learn and play around these key variables.
lookback period:
timeframe 2:
timeframe 3:
buy entry2:
sell entry2:

I have some basic questions -
1. is the lookback period the number of bars to the left? or is it default to days?
2. I tried playing around the timeframe2/3 setting to 2 intervals apart & 4 intervals apart, along with changing the lookback period to 2 & 4 respectively. Example: (2, 1hr, 2hr) or (4, 1day, 4days). And the signals look valid for most charts that I tried.
Can you please suggest if this is meaningful way to use these varaibles?
3. And can I set the buy/sell entry signals to just 1 or 2?
4. How to use the keratio indicator?

I have a indicator now shows gap fills. (if you would like to.. I can share it) ill scan right before market close and chart out if I see any gap needs to fill Ill buy calls or puts if no any signal ill scan right after market opens.

1. It's the number of bars it looksback to find a support or resistance.
2. Yes that's is meaningful
3. ?
4. Look back in time a look at the correlation between ker and price. Generally if Ke goes up then price goes up but it goes deeper. The best way is to see for yourself.
 
gy is very difficult around earnings season on higher aggregations. Once we're past it plays will be coming at us like crazy without earnings messing with us.
Roku and AAOI got smashed by earnings I think so there set ups got destroyed. The others I agree with just beware that some of them are running into resistances. (INTU 282 and BHC 15.5.). If you want another short to hedge out beta I'm still confident on co short. It should stay at worst stagnant on market up days and should fetch 3+ percent on down days.
Silly mistake on my part for not looking more closely at the premarket prices for ROKU and AAOI...

WDAY and AUY had a nice run up ~3%
Z went on a rampage 10%+

this strategy lets us know that an explosive moves is eminent and i feel in order to fully maximize on the opportunity we can use options. This will require a bit more invovement with the trade but can be very well worth it.

i reckon it would be better to take small positions (sells/buys) on these smaller cap stocks [shares]
then filter down the large caps to around two or three solid ones that you are sure will move (make sure there is sizzle and relative volume premarket) [important that these tickers have weekly contracts and they are not some random stock you never heard of] --- these tickers are going to be your intraday option plays.

Most of your capital can be deployed in these lower risk play on shares, but if you chose to you can parlay these gains into these option plays
(i personally will be using this strategy when i open up my acc with td since i just turned 18 and dont have access to lots of capital to buy shares and short shares with. this will be come in handy to build up my smoll acc so i can get into shares).
Unlike trading shares, you will need to put much more effort into perfecting your entries AND exits because if you just enter haphazardly then even if you end up being right on the move you can break even. So it is important to backtest this and use paper money to get the hang of it.

for example: today my option plays were Z, CRM, and TMUS (i only played shares on AUY and WDAY)
on 0dte atm contracts from Z went up 300% (51 strike)
crm went up 60% (technically 105% but i would have been out on the pullback)
tmus up 140% [this is the only option play i took out of the 3; tmus 95 calls, got in 1.12 and exited at 2.70]
*all these trades were done in tospapermoney, (still learning ;))

Like i said entries are vital to me since im trading options...
So far im keepin this barebones but will be open to adding other elements to help with my entries
I use the vix to gauge market direction
i also use the previous day close
and i use priceaction/ volume
i also use weekly volume profile levels along

lastly, i had a bullish market bias since vix was on a downtrend and had broken a super key level at ~30.5 and wicked on its retest
unknown.png

this was a good confirmation to look for long option plays. however tmus had a corilation of .53 so i wasnt that worried either way
I waited for the gap to fill on tmus and then i wanted to see buyer step
i liked the second bounce and decided to hop in


unknown.png

basically the plan is to get gud at this so i can flip 1k to ~25k so then i can start dip my toes into small cap shares and take multiple positions on at once
and yeah thats it, idunno hope this helped
 
@television What's your trendline study it looks clean? I agree that because successful breakouts incur gains in the stock that heavily outpace the expected move in the stock options could be the most valuable thing to use. Especcially those far out of the money that have a low itm chance. I may have to work out the math and come up with a quick formula on breakouts to find a good strike, probably including a variable of nearest resistance among other things
