🐳 Watchlists + @unusual_whales 🐳

Unusual Whales is an incredible tool that can take anyone's trading to the next level. It presents a ton of data, which can often be hard to synthesize.

This thread will provide a simplistic approach to analyzing and utilizing flow data. 🌊

 1. Where To Start

Start with the "Hot Chains & Tickers" page. Not only does this display the tickers with the most option volume, but it also shows the most active chains. Better yet, you can filter by sector and market cap.

Below are some specific filter examples:
2. Analysis

The "Intraday Analyst" page is your best friend here. The first thing I do is scroll down to the "Most Active Chains" table.

I'm looking for short-term exp. OTM contracts with heavy volume that look "unusual."

Examples are included below:
$LCID - Closed Wed. 11/3 ~$36.50. 40c weeklies required a 10% move in 2 days to go ITM. $LCID closed at $41.80 on Friday.

$AMD - Closed Tues. 11/2 ~$127.60. 130c got hit hard. Closed the week over $136.

$NVDA - Closed Thurs. 10/28 ~249.40, 250c 🔨. Closed Friday ~255.70.
Weekly OTM strikes with heavy volume can lead to huge moves. Now what makes these so unusual?

- OTM with little time to exp. = urgency
- Heavy volume on a certain strike can mean volatility in that area = good for options
- Vol. much greater OTM than ATM = big move possibility
Now it is crucial to note that volume includes both buying and selling. Suppose much of the action on a chain is selling volume. This would be bearish. However, in short-term options trading, you need volatility. Volume is what you want.

Staying on the "Intraday Analyst" page:

This is right above the previous table. What strikes are being targeted for 11/12 exp. on $LCID? I can see that 40c had heavy action. Friday 11/5 closed at almost $42 so that makes sense.

But the 45c volume and OI grabs my attention.
I can confirm this by checking the most active chains. The highest volume OTM option on Fri. 11/5 for 11/12 exp. was in fact the 11/12 45c.

Going into Monday 11/8, I can logically have $LCID 45c on my watchlist without even looking at the chart yet.
3. Targeted Flow Fliters

If I'm looking to play weeklies, I'll simply filter to only weekly expiry. Then I'll toggle the minimum premium in the "Premium Range" based on the stock. I'll focus mainly on the "🐂 V 🐻 Prems" chart.

Min. premium examples in order: 100k, 150k, 200k.
In each of these three situations, bullish premiums are over 60%, which is a bullish sign. Being concerned with the short-term move (weekly), this process has been the most simple and understandable when it comes to recent large orders.
4. Conclusion

No tool is a crystal ball. Unusual Whales gives you the opportunity to view, analyze, and customize more data than you could ever ask for. It will take a day or two to figure everything out, but it can be very rewarding.
Unusual Whales is a game-changer when it comes to catching big moves BEFORE they happen.

These tools empower retail traders by enabling us to follow the flow. 🌊

Thread about what I've been doing and what I've found trying to trade options. All of this was inspired by @AdamSliverTrade @drippy2hard @WealthBrah .

First thing I do is find any good traders watchlist. Sometimes they put their triggers other times they don't. For practice sometimes I'll type in "watchlist from:AdamSliverTrade" on twitter to see all of his past watchlists.

Like this:


Then I go to that date in trading view and only look at the past data to draw trend lines and support/resistance levels. So let's take $MU from his 11/30 watchlist and chart it out.

Normally I would look at the monthly candle, weekly, and daily to see if they have any continuity (all red or all green). But I can't really do that with past trades I don't know if the monthly or weekly were red before.

I'm often asked how one should study a market, so here are some thoughts:

Studying a market is different, from learning how to trade.

Learning how to trade includes everything from managing risk to managing yourself.

Studying a market is simply the process of looking for an edge.

Once you have identified an edge, you still have to learn to trade it.

The best way to study a market is to watch it as closely as you can but always using a frame of reference.

You should pick a frame of reference and exhaust its possibilities.

For example, you could use a time-based approach.

You could study how the market moves at certain times of the day, week or month.

I knew of one trader who made his money (and he made a lot of it) by studying specifically how the ES behaved at the end of each month. His entire edge was created around this.

I know of another successful trader who focused exclusively on the 8am open in FTSE futures.

Ever wonder how traders get in stocks before they explode? 🧐

Or find options that move 1,000% in a single day/week?🤯

I made a thread going over exactly how I find these stocks BEFORE they take off 🚀
👇👇👇

So, let's start with the software I use…

Finviz!! Finviz is a free website that I use to scan for stocks.

They have a lot of other cool features as well, but I only use their scanner.
👇

Head on over to finviz and go to the screener

Click on the “All” tab on the top and put in the criteria in the next tweet
👇

This is the first scan that I use for bullish swing setups
✅Quarter +10%
✅Week Down
✅Vol over 400k
✅Optionable
✅Price > $20
👇


The next scan I use is the opposite of the first one.

Simply change:
✅Quarter +10% to -10%
✅Week Down to Week up

This is my bearish scan for swing setups. 👇

#Thread The legend of Ekadash Mukhi Hanuman ji...


Mahadev himself narrated the story of Ekadash Mukhi Hanuman ji to Maa Parvati. Once a great monster named Kalkarmukh performed the severe penance of Brahma ji.


Pleased with the austerity of the demon, Brahma ji gave him a boon that the person who will have eleven Heads like you and who was born on the day of your birth, only he/she will be able to kill you. No one else will kill you.


After getting a boon from Brahma ji, Kalkarmukh created a ruckus in all three lok. He invaded Swarg and snatched all the rights of the Devtas and became himself the king of Swarg.


All Devtagan came to Shri Rama and asked him for help. Hearing the agony of the Devtagan, Shri Ram called his supreme devotee Hanuman ji and said, "Pawan Putra, Sankatmochan".

Ancient Indians were pioneers in diverse fields of study and their genius was centuries ahead of their times. Feel the glory, basking in pride of their unparalleled achievements.

(Thread)


Sushruta (circa 7th or 6th century BC) was a surgeon who in present times is known as the “father of Indian medicine” and “father of plastic surgery” for inventing and developing surgical procedures. He lived in Kashi on the banks of river Ganga.(1)

His work documented in the Sushruta Samhita (compendium) is one of the oldest texts in the world on plastic surgery and regarded as one of the trilogies of Ayurveda. The other 2 being the Charaka Samhita and Astanga Hridaya.(2)

Sushruta compiled the Sushruta Samhita as an instruction manual for physicians to treat patients.(3)

The Samhita caters to surgical techniques listing over 300 surgical procedures and 120 surgical instruments. Additionally to 1,120 diseases, injuries and their treatments with over 700 medicinal herbs and their application.(4)

1 There's a chasm between an NLP technology that works well in the research lab and something that works for applications that real people use. This was eye-opening when I started my career, and every time I talk to an NLP engineer at @textio, it continues to strike me even now.

2 Research conditions are theoretical and/or idealized. A huge problem for so-called NLP or AI startups with highly credentialed academic founders is that they bring limited knowledge of what it takes to build real products outside the lab.

3 A product is ultimately a thing that people pay for - not just cool technology or user experience. But I’m not even talking about knowledge gaps in go-to-market work. I'm talking purely technical gaps: how you go from science project to performant + delightful user experience.

4 Most commoditized NLP packages solve well-understood problems in standard ways that sacrifice either precision or performance. In a research lab, this is not usually a hard trade-off; in general, no one is using what you make, so performance is less important than precision.

5 In software, when you’re making something for real people to use, these tradeoffs are a big deal. Especially if you’re asking those people to pay for what you’ve made (can’t get away from that pesky GTM thinking). They expect quality, which includes precision AND performance.
