Hey Traders,
Man, I love markets like this.
As I recorded the video above, the Dow is down 800 points. The NASDAQ is getting crushed.
Most traders are freaking out.
But me?
I see nothing but opportunity.
Because this kind of volatility is cash flow heaven.
How I’m Trading This Market
You already know I love selling options — and right now, these kinds of trades are paying out big.
In fact, I just put on a bear call spread on NVDA that’s delivering a huge yield for just a three-day trade.
And if you know how to trade the right way, there’s a ton of opportunity in a market like this.
So let’s talk about what you can do.
Buying Opportunities — Back to the Future Style
For stock traders, this market is like hopping in a time machine.
📉 AVGO below $200 — this was a $250 stock.
📉 NVDA at 112 — this was a $160 stock.
These stocks have dropped so fast, it’s like stepping back in time to get prices from months ago.
Why? Because the market hates uncertainty.
And right now? That’s all we’ve got.
Crypto’s getting obliterated — Bitcoin, Solana, Ripple, all getting hammered.
Bitcoin dropped from $106K to $85K — and nobody saw that coming.
But I’ve been saying it for a while now — I’ve been expecting a selloff like this.
And now? Here it is.
How to Play This Market Right Now
This market is moving fast — so here’s how I’m playing it:
- If you think stocks are going lower → Buy puts. You can grab at-the-money, in-the-money, or slightly out-of-the-money puts with a week or two until expiration and ride the downside.
- Shorting stocks → Stocks drop faster than they go up — just look at today’s 800-point drop in the Dow. That’s a huge move in just a few hours.
- Cash Flow Plays → This is where the real money is.
- Sell Covered Calls → The premiums are insanely high right now, which means even better payouts.
- Sell Credit Spreads → The wider the volatility, the better the credit.
- Sell Naked Puts → If you want to own stocks at a discount, now’s the time to get paid while you wait for a better entry price. Just sell below the current stock price, get paid and wait for it to drop.
Those plays are the way to go right now.
Final Thoughts
I know most traders panic when the Dow drops 800 points.
But let me tell you something — these drops are short-lived.
Even when we get corrections like this, they don’t last.
So when I say “Back to the Future,” that’s exactly what I mean — these stocks are going to snap back, and when they do, I’ll already be in position.
Until then? I’ll keep racking up cash flow while other traders sit on the sidelines, scared to pull the trigger.
Trade well,

P.S. Here’s another play I’m doing… and it’s all because I spotted a series of HUGE options orders totaling $2.4 million on one specific stock. Sign up here to get all the details!
