And I'm getting ready to trade the shit out of software stocks thanks to this recent update to the options market.
Here's why…
We are in a market environment where mega-cap stocks — the biggest, most liquid names on the planet — are moving like penny stocks.
Every Anthropic press release. Every viral Substack post. Every tariff headline. Every earnings surprise.
Each one sends a wave of volatility through the same handful of names that trade billions of dollars in options every single week.
The tech stocks that used to be the juice that powered all the major indexes are now punching holes in portfolios.
Think about what just happened this week…
IBM dropped 13% in a single day – its worst day in 26 years.
Not because of an earnings miss. Not because of a fraud scandal.
Because an AI startup wrote a blog post about a 67-year-old programming language.
AppLovin, Asana, and Zscaler all dropped 10% on Monday.
The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (IGV) hit a new 52-week low — down nearly 30% on the year. It's erased every gain since ChatGPT launched in 2022.
Three years of AI hype… gone in two months.
But here's the part most people are missing…
By Tuesday, Wall Street was already pushing back. UBS upgraded IBM. Evercore called the selloff "unwarranted." Jefferies said the threat is overblown. IBM's own board members started buying shares with their personal money.
IBM bounced nearly 4% the next day.
So who was right? The doomers or the analysts?
It doesn't matter.
Someone was short before the 13% drop, and someone went long and bought the dip.
If they were trading options, these waves could have paid 3x, 5x, even 10x in a single day.
And the waves are only going to get bigger, faster, and more frequent in the coming weeks and months ahead.
Most people watched this week happen and did one of two things…
Panicked and sold to get out…
Or white-knuckled through it hoping it would stop.
I plan on riding these waves to make the fastest money in the market.
Because thanks to a few major updates that have either already happened — or will happen sometime this year…
We're about to see one of the best short-term trading opportunities of the decade.
And on Wednesday, March 4th at 4pm ET, I'm going to show you exactly how I plan to profit.
On this webinar, you will learn…
How to profit from a stock whether it goes up OR down. IBM dropped 13% on Monday and bounced 4% on Tuesday. Most people got hurt on the way down and missed the move back up. I'll show you how to trade both sides of these waves.
The hidden reason most options traders lose money — even when they pick the right direction. It's not bad luck. It's one overlooked number that's quietly working against you on every single trade. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
What happened on January 26th that changed the options market forever. The last time the CBOE added a new expiration window, it created a generation of traders with an edge. It's happening again right now — and almost nobody is talking about it.
Why the stocks getting destroyed by the AI Doom Wave are now the single best source of fast trading opportunities in the market. Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, IBM, Salesforce — you already own them. I'll show you how to extract triple-digit returns from the exact volatility that's been punching holes in your portfolio.
I'm going live on March 4th at 4pm ET to reveal the secret to making fast money on these fast moves.
It'll be about 35 minutes of solid content with some live Q&A at the end.
