My “Long Weekend Effect” trades are about to drop — don’t miss out!
Let’s talk about a recent jaw-dropping move in the market — specifically, Super Micro Computer.
We recently saw a massive trade on Jan. 8 that caught my eye — a BIG-money trader laid down $1.7 million on the February monthly expiration, $380 strike calls in SMCI.
Now, that’s a heavyweight bet!
What’s intriguing here is not just the sheer size of the trade but its timing and potential implications. It hit my News Flow Scanner right around 2:20 p.m. ET, and the following day, SMCI’s stock shot up $28.
Coincidence? I think not…
This kind of movement is a trader’s dream — and exactly the kind of opportunity I live for.
Diving deeper, those calls had seen a 60% increase at the time, a clear indicator of the momentum building in SMCI.
But here’s my twist…
While these calls were golden, don’t overlook the weekly options. They’re a high-risk, high-reward playground, perfect for those who like to spice up their trading game while also taking on more risk for the potential of a bigger payoff.
In essence, SMCI’s recent surge is more than just a blip on the radar. It’s a signal, a beacon for savvy traders to potentially capitalize on. The market is always talking, folks. The question is, are you listening?
Check out my video up top and I’ll break down a few ways to trade this and other orders that hit my News Flow Scanner all… day… long!

P.S. I Just Posted 3 New Trades to Enter BEFORE the Close!
I just posted three new trade alerts inside my hottest alert service — Wiretap Alerts!
It’s crucial you see them before the markets close today because…
Monday, the markets are closed for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
You see, not only do I love trading over traditional weekends…
But with the markets closed on Monday, it gives us an additional day for my favorite trade alerts to “cook.”
My results in the last two years trading over this specific holiday weekend speak for themselves…
That’s right… 6 for 6!
