Calm, cool, collected and not emotional. The difference between institutional traders and retail traders. Excellent.

Glad to have you Harry
Give this man more air time, absolute legend.
This is really funny actually... I had Microsoft at $165 strike, Tesla at $505 strike, and Apple at $310 strike - I sold them all early for either minimum gains (after they continued to fall) or for big losses. Tesla I lost $250 on the option. Then I bought TSM at $5.50 strike and sold that for a $400 loss... These were all 1/17 expiration that I bought on Monday. I ended up losing over $600 and it was my first down week in 2 months. Guess what? Every single option mentioned landed above the strikes at expiration today. I would have made over $2000 if I held them. I would have made at least $500-1000 if I didn't sell on their down trends. So what should have been my best week to date was my worst. I know I'm gambling too much with such shallow strike prices and going weekly, but if I had understood the logic between those push and pulls I probably could have grown a pair and trusted myself. Either way I'm still up and will sign up for your classes. Thanks again!
Thank you guys. You guys help small retail traders massively. Please don't ever stop these educational videos, blogs and tweets. Thank you Steve & SMB.
Agreed 👍
Valuable information, thank you. I appreciate bringing the impact of option expiration on potential price movement (or pinning).
Thank you Steven. Learning so much from you. Greatly appreciated!
Awesome info on deciphering headlines for short term profit 💰 👍
I don't trade stocks, but futures markets and I trade market manipulation all the time, but not based on the news! My trading is based upon volume, volatility and price action at specific supply and demand areas, which are in fact the areas of manipulation and I see it in all time frames you can imagine! News is unreliable if you don't know how to play the news! What I do is typically counter intuitive! Pullback turning points are normally at previous manipulation areas! These are my "Little Signposts"! Great video!
Brilliant of Steve to connect the options strike price as a magnet!
Yes, be careful of the "Fake News". Always look at volume, above/below vwap, price support/resistance to line up with the headline. Trade accordingly :)
Hi TJ, can you explain what you mean by "line up with the headline"? I'm trying to learn as much as I can, thank you!
I remember in 2019, there was some bad news about ZS stock saying it’s security is bad. The stock kept falling from about $87 to 40s. Look today the stock is above $120. May be they wanted to take the stock down for a long ride. Thank you for the education.
Just look at precious metals today
I got pumped up and whipped out my credit card and bought the DNA training package the other night! Im pretty fired up about this!! 🔥 I hope I will be able to take this oppotunity all the way! This is my biggest career dream in life. I dream of the day I finally get my shot at compounding some real capital! I started with DNA because there are some modules in that program that I still need to prepare me for that next step foward, if I get there.
This is awesome, thanks for the knowledge and information!!
I came across a fake news catalyst on IMBI yesterday in my opinion. I saw in premarket it had a big push up and low and behold it was because Shaq came put with a new line of invicta watches lol? Dont get me wrong I like him but he s a retired basketball player and even though he has a "brand" I didn't believe it was sufficient enough news to justify the surge. Crappy thing is I missed my opportunity to short under vwap around 945 bc I was stuck in a meeting at work. I did capitalize on CETX Wednesday though using a similar setup shorting under vwap. Working on my edge and consistency! Thanks SMB!
Wow. I called out the short entry as it opened up on that day. I was just recording a video for myself about the previous day's action when it opened and it kind of annoyed me, but I noticed the triple convergence of previous day's high, aftermarket close, and premarket open, combined with lots of bear wicks and coming down off that zone. I didn't even have the previous day's high drawn, so I didn't even notice how cleanly it rejected. I wasn't trading nor did I intend to, but I just call stuff when I see it.
I didn't even know about the news, or fake news as it were. Although that could explain the dump during premarket :P For me premarket was just a way to draw top/bottom lines :P
That's crazy how the price magneted right to that option strike price and got boxed in by the most popular strikes. I may have called the short but you called the entire day!!
Thanks you,Spencer and SMB.Your vids helps me alot .Can u make a vid on MS earnings and how u would plan to trade it.
I was long from the week before on a swing trade that started back in the 350 area. I had no idea that the news was fake, but I did buy puts when I saw it to hedge against a retest of the 472 area. I also got short at 511 on the failed break out attempt around 514 and ride the fade back to around 505. I am long tsla and am an intermediate trader. I didn't have a well thought out action plan , but that's how I felt w Friday. Thank you for the video. I really enjoy learning from smb and the great traders over there.
*dealt w
some days there is no clear plan and it is better to just stay away. If that story hadn't moved the stock so much early in the day I probably would have not given it as much attention
Great video, thanks and please show us ways to benefit when we perceive a pump and dump in an asset, how can we spot and how shall we trade or stay out in such a situation.
Thank you. I would greatly appreciate it if you guys show actual entry(ies) and exit(s).
Thanks for posting, very interesting. Great information. Keep them coming
I would LOVE to learn from you. Get all the knowledge you have.
Always world class information thank you guys so much!
Hey, love this video, really highlighted an issue where many novice traders get drawn into. I have a suggestion for a future video from you guy, can you make a video on how to conduct or the way in which you guys carry out research (methodology) into different sectors, which then then help with trading stock specific ideas? Once again thanks for the videos you put out there!
That is a really good idea!
Love this channel! Thank you!
thanks!!
Great video! Thanks Steve
Great channel. I watch all the time.
I got a question for you. I’m following this stock that has high daily volume but the stock only moves by one or two pennies all day long . If you look at the chart it bounces up and down until almost closing. I can see that there’s a huge sell order just above where it bounces to but never gets there. I can tell that someone is day trading all day taking profits from this bounce. How are they doing this ?
merci Steve c'est toujours un plaisir de vous revoir
Great trading advice combining news trading and technical trading
Thanks for this information. I wish you could make a similar video about bitcoin!
I know for a fact what does not work in this environment.
A RSI divergence scalp on the 1 minute as long as it's lined up with the 5 minute RSI and 5 minute MACD. I'm a retail guy. 3 years trading. That set up was a monster. 50%++ in naked options on any scalp I took on the second move of the 5 minute chart, or the first set up I mentioned above at market open.
The problem is it only works in a decent trend. Like AAPL, ROKU, AMD, DIS, NFLX, BABA, SBUX or TSLA. So I haven't traded anything in a few days. I guess I got more study to do. Try to find something that sticks out besides symmetrical triangles HAHA!
Just to add I did notice that short interest ratio on TSLA with the volume. I was just confused on what to do about it. But you definitely helped me on my path to figure it out. Thanks.
Thanks for insights! I like learning about other people’s perspectives. 👍
Tsla traded sideways for like 5 yrs & then did some catching up more recently. After watching most of Steven Mark Ryan’s Yt videos and doing a lil homework I believe Tsla is the best long term (10+ yrs), buy and hold investment on the stock market
likely a great buy and hold trade. I believe Steve has been in TSLA since it was sub 100 and he just hedges his long with options at this point.
Thank you Steve
I failed at the "not gonna get angry part". Wanted the 315 break and over stayed. kept stop at 511.15 w/ 509.40 avg. I shoulda raised it when it did the last break/fake out incase that did happen. Then did'nt execute the nice short op at 11:06 yall's time.
What do you think if the market do not have the short or sell set up , will it affect the way of bouncing back and is it better market ?
Often I have seen when XYZ broker puts out a price target that is above the current price the stock will go down. The same for when they issue a price below the current it tends to go up.
This was super informative!! Played this stock this morning
Awesome👍 Are you already out? Or are you into next week?
@@MRZEROTOINFINITY got out sold 520 call expiring on 01/17 after seeing price action not getting higher than 515. Major factor being in a down trend after being so high.
Jeremy Griffith Nice call 👍 How often do you trade? Multiple trades a week or do you like waiting for a perfect time when everything lined up with your strategy - which may take time?
@@MRZEROTOINFINITY I only wait for the best setups based on certain criteria. Idk if I will have the same luck on this strategy come friday but i can hope.
Jeremy Griffith I’m guessing you wait for strictly technical setups? Right? Or do you review fundamentals as well and other techniques.
Thanks Steve
Great stuff Steve. Follow him on Twitter, always interesting stuff.
This should have a million views.
thanks! lol...
Is there a sheet like the Put/Call sheet you displayed on thinkorswim?
Can you make a video on tape reading
What would we have done if TSLA had nose dived? Can we go short on the stock until it reaches a long term support?
great video!
Where did your trading education come from? And I mean that in a sense where you were able to start a trading firm.
Can someone explain how you lose money, when the price rises after shorting it?
Edit: Watching this video, Now when I see the news and see alot of negative news on Shares for example the crypto currency xrp lawsuit, dropped the price down to 30 cents, and now its gone up 20%. Im starting to understand how it works. thanks for the video
Listen shorting stocks is a skill set few really master, if you don't know what shorting means i suggest you first learn how to buy and hold quality stocks first....
lovely insight!
so good!
Hello, Steven. I'd like to know are you take in position through OTC? Especially, in case of manipulation. Thanks.
What are your thoughts on SNCA manipulation? Great video BTW.
I haven't looked at it..
Great info, is 73 % of the market traded by High Frequency Whales, if they get togother then can massively move a stock or commidity it seems
compare this guy to the trend of daytrading gurus. This man is a God compare to them
Knows his stuff 👌
Would a good example be Bloomberg being negative about Tesla. Or Tesla's catching fire and or autopilot crashes most likely at fault of the driver but the media questions the safety of autopilot or FSD? Causing market speculation and the share price to fall? 🤔.
Edit: I published this comment before watching the video, lol.
So yeah allegations. @2.16
I actually 100% thought of this example right before I typed in, 'market manipulation'. 👍😁😅
What brokers and trading platforms do you guys use?
we trade on our own technology. we don't use retail brokerages. we have direct relationships with clearing firms.
How do I work for this man?
Agreed
Back when TSLA was trading at 500 PRESPLIT ;o
As long as hedge funds can buy order flow and see where the money is, manipulation will always occur.
How they use it it always screws retail always you'll see magic in futures when I buy options its straight up scammy asf like today bought puts in nasdeq dow and snp going down nasdeq only one going up even though nasdeq kept going down after it made it to first place qqq stayed the same on a .20 drop difference from nasdeq but as soon and I don't mean even a minute after I closed my puts for a little gain it dropped 1.50 in seconds on a straight drop down to go in last place but this is hard to explain youd have to see it but it happens to me almost everytime I trade options you see crazy things happening that never do 90 percent of the time I can call what's will happen in futures but if I buy options I have about a 10 percent chance of making money its so screwed to be able to call them all the time but never when you actually put money in options
Boeing has been a great short. People keep hoping all the bad news is out, then more comes. We see this any time there is a corporate cover-up and an economy that, at all stages, is complicit. They're shocked when the next news comes out.
Of course, it is a swing trade. They're far too important to the military-industrial complex to ever be a long-term short. Netflix is better for that.
I thought market manipulation was illegal?
Do you guys do internships?

How do you break a hedge fund knowing that these activities are happening in manipulating the share price using news outlets and social media spreading inaccurate information intentionally?? That’s what needs to happen.
Send me Shark's and Gman's A+ setups

If there is one thing i've learned about life. Nothing is free!
It doesn't matter what it is, you see videos that promote this "free e-book" "free- strategy lessons" etcetra" so you ask yourself is this actually real? If i click the link am i going to see a 3hr video seminar/tutorial? or if i download this ebook is it actually going to have "real strategy" "real info"
NOPE just another advertisement for a $4,000 course,,,
Not knocking it, i just wish people would say up front! this is nothing more than an infomercial
thanks for the feedback!
If the game is rigged i don't play
how much did the big boys lose shorting tesla? 40 billion lmao
it was a lot!
They usually go to prison for it.
Why isn't Musk in prison?
I still don't see that there is anything more than a suspicion of manipulation here. You would have to show that the originator of the complaint did so with the intention of causing the stock's price to fall.
Cnbc released the source and even said the person who wrote the letter is short TSLA.
I wouldn't have made that claim unless my confidence level was high. Regardless the media has now reported that my suspicion was correct. cleantechnica.com/2020/01/19/that-nhtsa-tesla-sudden-unintended-acceleration-petition-created-by-a-tsla-short-seller-who-doesnt-own-a-tesla/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

Get a job as a janitor at the most profitable hedge funds and bug the place.
Lmao admitting to stock manipulation
