Don here... You see a massive options print flash across your screen. 41,000 contracts at a single strike. The posts on X say it's bullish. You buy. And then you watch your position bleed out while nothing makes sense. This happens because most traders can't tell the difference between a trade that moves price and one that doesn't. Bought versus sold. Squeeze versus wall. The data looks identical on the surface. The outcomes are opposite. Brandon Chapman broke down exactly this scenario in VFC this morning. He showed why the trade everyone's calling bullish has zero potential to push the stock higher. And he built a butterfly targeting where the gamma actually points. In today's free session replay, you'll discover: - Why selling puts creates floors, not buying pressure. Those 30,000 contracts sold yesterday had a 19 delta. Today it's 16. The most impact that trade will ever have already happened.
- The silver miner trade that caught the reversal. SILJ saw 30,000 put contracts bought in a ratio spread yesterday. One member took that signal and closed an SLV trade for 212% gains.
- What separates gamma walls from gamma squeezes. Open interest alone tells you nothing. Ford has 100,000 puts at $13. But because they were bought, the squeeze intensifies below that level.
- Oracle's continued bearish flow and the $165 target. 5,000 put contracts bought in a single block trade for this week's expiration. The bearish pressure that started before earnings hasn't stopped.
Brandon made something clear about interpreting option flow. If you don't understand whether contracts were bought or sold, you're guessing. The foundational knowledge of options isn't optional. GM announced earnings today and jumped 9%. Ford moved 2% in sympathy. That gap tells you where the pressure sits. → Watch Brandon break down why the VFC trade on X was misread and how composition determines whether gamma helps or hurts you To your success, Don Kaufman Chief Market Strategist, TheoTRADE P.S.
