Launch Pad or Last Gasp?by Tony Rago NVDA handed the bulls a clean launch pad, letting ES reclaim that 6,700 zone — now the whole game is whether they can keep it. For ES, 6,700 is the must-hold with a line in the sand at 6,677; lose that, and momentum shifts right back to…
Did You Play Nvidia Earnings Correctly?
Nvidia just blew out earnings. The stock rallied hard. Were you a bull or a bear? Did you buy calls or puts? From my perspective, your bias doesn’t matter. This isn’t about taking risks…it’s about taking calculated risks. You see, it’s not about playing the game but how to play it. Let me demonstrate using…
Did NVDA Help The Market Find it's Mojo?
NVIDIA just reported earnings. The S&P futures jumped 30-40 handles. Most traders think the risk just evaporated. They're dead wrong. NVIDIA's expected move was $14. The stock is only up $7-8 after hours. That underwhelming response should tell you something important about this market's appetite for risk right now. But here's what really caught my…
I Finally Let Someone Trade My Money
Don Kaufman here. I’ve been in this business 25 years. Grew up around traders at the Chicago Board Options Exchange. Had family in the business - my uncle owned over 500 seats on exchanges worldwide before selling to what became UBS. Three weeks out of college, I ended up in Chicago with ramen noodles on…
3 Trades I Just Revealed on Schwab TV
Don Kaufman here. I just wrapped up Schwab's Trading 360 show. Marley and Kayden had me break down three trades live on air. Roblox. Bitcoin ETF. Netflix. Three completely different setups. Three different strategies. But here's the thing... Each one is based on the same core principle I've been hammering: we're not in a "buy…
Wednesday, November 19, 2025 - TheoLIVE Market Masters
Every network is screaming that today is “historic,” and for once they’re not completely wrong. With Nvidia reporting after the bell, the entire market is basically orbiting one stock. Futures are steady, oil’s getting knocked around, and everyone is quietly repositioning like their portfolio depends on a single earnings line — because it does.…

Settle-Line Standoffby Tony Rago We’re opening right on the SETTLE levels for both ES and NQ, and that’s the pivot zone that decides the next leg for me. If buyers can hold these areas as support, they’ve got room to run; lose them, and bears step back into the driver’s seat. Underneath these levels it…
Why Someone Just Bought 50,000 Put Contracts
Brandon Here. Earlier today, two massive block trades hit the Ghost Prints Surveillance console. While I see big trades all the time, these were…well..different. I’m used to seeing large trades in Nvidia. However, HYG, the junk bond ETF, that’s not one I see all that often…actually hardly ever. This type of trade wouldn’t hit the…
