SPY Gap Fill With Cumulative TICK Data (OTM Put Debit Spread)
Similar to last week, we’re going to continue using the Cumulative TICKs to find clues around what to expect in the S&P 500 for tomorrow.
With the close today, we had our Cumulative TICK Pro indicator suggesting that we had a likely bullish trend exhaustion. Typically, this is met with a reversal the next day. We had something similar set up last Thursday, with a bearish trend exhaustion signal, and saw a nice rally to close on Friday.
We’ll use this data and observation to build a trade in S
Bullish Reversal Trade Idea in SPY – Market Internals Data
The Cumulative TICK Pro signaled to us to expect a likely bearish trend exhaustion with today’s activity. We’ll use this information to create a game plan for tomorrow’s trading.

➡️ WHAT WE’RE EXPECTING:
A bullish reversal, after a morning decline. The Cumulative TICKs suggested t
Short Interest Squeeze in Zillow (Z)
In today’s video, we’ll walk through the fairly simple process of finding high short interest squeeze opportunities.
We start by first using our Bullish Squeeze Signal scan. The Squeeze Signal is an indicator that we’ve built as part of the Squeeze Course, which helps us find stocks likely to have a momentum move higher.
Next, we’ll copy all of those stocks directly from ThinkOrSwim, and paste them into an Excel sheet. We use this formula to then comma separate the list:

Trading Daily and Hourly Volatility Levels on Indices
After 3 days of breaking outside of our most conservative models, we saw price action start to stabilize just a bit.
In today’s video, we’ll layer on both our hourly and daily volatility ranges to look and trade the indices. We sent out the daily volatility ranges, part of the Stock Volatility Box platform, to all of our Futures VB members as well, which ended up triggering for some nice trades across the board.
Via our Futures VB levels, we had a total of 7 trades, with a net P/L of +$1,410,
Volatility Trades in Tech Stocks and Futures (Sept. 2, 2020)
We had the Nasdaq futures break outside of our Doomsday Conservative (our most conservative) volatility models within the first 30 minute after market open. With that same downfall, we had a group of tech stocks all hit our Stock Volatility Box Live Scanner, giving us plenty of opportunities to look for fade trade setups.
In today’s video, we’ll discuss both stock and futures trades, along with ways to overlap the Stock and Futures Volatility Boxes to work in congruence. With Nasdaq breaking ou

4 Options Trade Ideas in Ring Central (RNG)

The stock that we’ll be taking a look at is Ring Central — they started by making the video doorbell, and have expanded their line of offering to a suite of security, and some even non-security applications now.
That’s to say – their product line has been gradually expanding, and I woul
3 Real Estate ETFs Ripe for Momentum Moves
In today’s video, we’ll spend some time going through the Squeeze Signals scan results, to try and find clusters of stocks/ETFs in the same sector.

Let’s take a look at the volatility over the span of an entire week (7/27 – 7/31), to see how volatility changes.
Using Stock VB breaches as our measure of volatility, we saw that volatility increased substantially, from Monday all the way through Friday. For example, on Monday, we saw that we had a total of 40 volatility box breach setups. On Friday, that number had increased to 157 (wow!).
