 Why I’m Watching 25-Cent Options Right Now
(And You Might Want To, Too)Everywhere you look, traders are pouring thousands into options on the biggest names in the market. But what if I told you some of the most explosive setups right now are trading for just 25 cents?
It sounds crazy… but there’s a very specific reason why these cheap trades are showing up. It has to do with pre-scheduled dates—moments when the market historically sees sharp moves in certain stocks.
By targeting these predetermined windows, I’ve been able to spot trades priced at a quarter that have gone on to deliver big.
⚠️ And here’s the kicker:
A new round of these “cheap setups” is about to hit.

No guessing. No hype. Just a smart way to trade smarter for less.
Market Editorial - Chuck Crow A do nothing Monday followed by a drop in the NQ futures of 1.37% on Tuesday sets the broader market into a precarious standing for Wednesday.
Home Depot (HD)
HD opened the week at 396.57. Monday’s low was 392.51, and the high on Monday was 398.97. In the early hours of Tuesday, HD offered a less than stellar earnings report Tuesday morning and dropped to 375.00 in extended hours. By the time of the cash open HD was back to 401.01. The market climbed throughout the day to a new high of the month at 414.36. The earnings report was not a good one, but the guidance gave the stock some strength. Real support is Monday’s low at 392.51. The stock has already moved past last week’s high at 407.82.
Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA)
WBA opened the week at 11.92 and has traded up to a high this week of 12.08. Last week’s high was 12.10, leaving this week shy of expanding the range to the topside. The low this week is 11.92 set on Monday. Tuesday’s low of 11.98 shows that WBA was able to survive the broader markets turn down in Tuesday’s trading.
The Broader Market
The week opened at 6467.00 and closed on Monday at 6467.00. In Tuesday’s trading we saw AI chip stocks falling, and retail stocks climbing. This could be a coincidence, or we could be lo oking at sector rotation as profits come off the high flying AI chip stocks and start moving into retail. HD posted a new high of the month on Tuesday. Both WMT and TGT were bouncing from last week’s lows and posted new weekly highs. They both are yet to report earnings this week. YM futures were relatively flat while the NQ dropped. In fact for Tuesday’s trading with the NQ down 1.37%, the YM futures gained 0.07%. It is way too early to say if this will turn into a trend, but well worth watching. We have TGT reporting Wednesday, WMT reporting Thursday, and ROST reporting on Friday. This week from an earnings perspective has a retail flavor to it. After this week, we could see the more recent trends reemerge, but for now watch that retail space for possible leadership moving forward.
