@TradeVolatility A few years ago, it was all about liquidity. While it is somewhat impactful now, not like 0DTE and gamma profiles

The same reflexivity creating this opportunity can also destroy the strategy once enough participants adapt to it.

@VolSignals Great info. Many thanks

Retweeting for no reason at all

@TradeVolatility Have added some SQQQ recently

$QQQ is +38% over the past year. Who here has a portfolio that is lagging that?

@MenthorQpro That's really incredible. Is it possible there are some moonshot calls in there that affect the skew like this?Seems like there might be more risk out there than these longer dated calls might suggest. I have no idea.

6/ The longer-dated structure reveals an interesting profile: Mid-June (6/18) carries $128M in gamma, and year-end (12/31) has an outsized $202M concentration with a skewed 0.08 put/call ratio. That's decidedly bullish structural positioning.

SPX Option Matrix: May 13, 2026 1/ The SPX options chain just painted an interesting picture for today. 🧵👇

@MichaelPBento Hope they get smoked

Come on people, what are we doing this is getting out of hand.

@MenthorQpro excellent! thanks. Just learning here.

@MichaelPBento Love it and live it!

SPY net flow has crossed over to join SPX net flow in being put dominated. When combined with the gamma wall on both 0dte and All Exp holding at 740 it looks like we may be setting up for a pullback on profit taking. A breakdown of the rising wedge would take SPY to 690, but I see pauses along the way at 720, 711, and 695. If we pull back to 690 I think we bottom there and then turn and head up to 750. I do not think we go any lower than 690 as my window for a deeper correction is now closed until the end of August. What can frustrate things is Monthly OpEx is this week so we could pin to this level this week and then end up pulling back next week. Keep in mind we don't have monthly VIXperation until NEXT WEEK, so those looking for downside don't have that Vol unmooring event this Wednesday, and we've seen in the past that when VIXperation lags Monthly OpEx there tends to be more significant swings in stocks.

@McClellanOsc @DKellerCMT Look at uvix. Up today

@DKellerCMT VIX has a tendency to fall on Fridays. It is up at the moment, with the SPX up 0.8%. That ain't regular.

Investor: "OMG what's happening in the Middle East? Are interest rates back up? What about crude oil? Wait the jobs number came in strong, what now?!?" $VIX: "Dude. Just chill out." $VIX < 20 = "Please disperse, there's nothing to see here."

@MichaelPBento You would think these short vix products would be down more. Not up at all.

@MichaelPBento Note: UVIX, UVXY SVIX are going green so be ready for DD

Moment of truth, we either break this level and head to 740 or we head down to the bottom of the wedge here.

@LizAnnSonders @UMich Who cares! The consumer only drives 69 % of the economy

May @UMich Consumer Sentiment fell to another record low 48.2 vs. 49.5 est. & 49.8 in prior month; current conditions down to 47.8 vs. 52.0 est. & 52.5 in prior month; expectations up to 48.5 vs. 48.2 est. & 48.1 in prior month

@AndrewHiesinger They want traders to bet on this EOD call spike

$5M Call Spike on $SPY at close 👇

@MenthorQpro Thank you guys!

@AndrewHiesinger Momentum is crazy. CTAs trying to play catch up. Reminds me of SIL a couple of months ago

$20M Call Spike on $SPX minutes before close... This activity is insane!

@AndreasSteno Little early to say that

It was probably a good idea that Michael Burry started selling doomporn on Substack rather than via a fund structure

@MichaelPBento sure hope so

Despite today's move, QQQ is still in the ascending broadening wedge and there has been a lot of buy activity in the 660P this morning. Multiple separate sweep orders to open. Clusters like this tend to be more reliable than a single large order. Given that today's move is at the top of the wedge and AMD earnings are today after a historic run up, I think the logic here is AMD will drop on earnings due to frontrunning and take QQQ with it.

@QuantData $uvix might not be next week but coming soon

📊 $VIX update: The $VIX is now up just +17% in 2026, and down over -40% from March 31st.

@siddiqui71 Since bunker bombs didn't work options are limited to what? Troops on the ground?

👀🧨

@AndrewHiesinger Leveraged long vol etfs like UVIX and UVxY are getting crushed. Better bet than this market

$7M Call Spike on $QQQ

@MichaelPBento He needs to add more to his $150mm net worth

$6.64MLN worth of SPY 0dte 708P at 11:35AM. What's your dad planning to say Barron?
