I read the article with disbelief 🫢. It is a totally different feeling that I think this article should be shared and widely re-shared. Options trading is not the root cause of the big losses stated in the article, it is the incredulous ignorance among the participants. Yes, I mention the word, "participants" rather than calling them "investors". These people do not even qualified as "speculators" since apparently they just follow their leader blindly! They do not appear to have any understanding of the trades that were involved. Options trading is simply the instrument. This instrument could be anything, since the participants did not bother to find out before joining the foray.  The article carries a funny snippet too. One of the participants has actually setup a GoFund me page

"I Experienced A Catastrophic Financial Loss": How Options Trader 'Captain Condor' Led His Followers To A $50 Million Wipeout

MW 'I experienced a catastrophic financial loss': How options trader 'Captain Condor' led his followers to a $50 million wipeout. Captain Condor's rise coincided with a boom in retail investors trading risky '0DTE' options. Some members of a group led by trader David Chau, pictured here during a podcast appearance, lost most of their life savings over Christmas.The options trader known as "Captain Condor" and his acolytes experienced a wipeout last week that incinerated tens of millions of dollars and cost some investors their life savings.The U.S. options industry is on track for a sixth straight year of record activity in 2026, according to data from the Options Clearing Corporation, or OCC. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, retail investors have increasingly become involved in trading derivatives such as options.

I first truly understood candlestick charts when I grasped what Doji candles represent. Realizing that a Doji reflects indecision—especially after a strong move—changed how I read price action. From then on, candlesticks became less about memorizing patterns and more about understanding market psychology. When I see a long upper shadow, my instinct is to pause and wait for the next candle to confirm. It can signal rejection or profit-taking, but without follow-through, it’s just information, not a trade. That patience has helped me avoid acting too early. Looking back at NVIDIA’s price action, the pattern that most often tricks traders is a Doji after a long bullish candle. It looks like a top, draws people into exiting or shorting, and then the uptrend resumes. In strong momentum stocks,

CES 2026 Preview: Can Nvidia & AMD Turn "Physical AI" Into the Next Trillion-Dollar Trade? 🤖💸 Happy New Year, Tigers! 🐯 Welcome to 2026. The markets are waking up from the holiday freeze, and all eyes are locked on Las Vegas. CES (Consumer Electronics Show) kicks off next week, and the narrative has shifted aggressively. For the last three years, we traded the "Brain" of AI (LLMs, ChatGPT, Cloud Training). Now, the market is demanding the "Body." The screenshot above highlights the new buzzword you need to know: "Physical AI." With Nvidia ($NVDA) trading around $186 and AMD ($AMD) at $214, the question isn't who makes the best chip—it's who can monetize the transition from code on a screen to robots in the real world. Here is your trader’s playbook for the CES Robotics rotation. 1️⃣ Th

Unlock Market Momentum: Master RSI to Catch Overbought Rockets Before They Plummet! 🚀📉

Ever wondered why some stocks skyrocket then suddenly tank? Enter the Relative Strength Index (RSI) – your secret weapon for gauging momentum and spotting when the party's getting too wild! 💥 Whether you're dipping your toes in trading or fine-tuning your strategy, RSI helps you read if a stock's overbought (ready for a dip) or oversold (primed for a bounce). Let's dive in with a simple breakdown that'll amp up your chart game. 📊 First off, what's RSI all about? It's a momentum oscillator cooked up by J. Welles Wilder that measures the speed and change of price movements on a scale of 0 to 100. The core idea: compare recent gains to losses to see if buyers or sellers are dominating. Overbought? Think exhausted bulls gasping for air. Oversold? Bears might be running out of steam. 🐂🐻 The mag

Silver Crashes 9% After CME's Brutal Margin Squeeze: Precious Metals Rally Doomed or Just Getting Started? 🚨💥

Buckle up, folks—precious metals just hit a wild speed bump that's got everyone buzzing! 😲 The CME Group dropped a bombshell on December 30, 2025, jacking up margin requirements for gold, silver, platinum, and palladium futures. This isn't their first rodeo; it's the second hike in a single week, effective right after the market close on December 31. Traders now need way more collateral to play the game—think silver's initial margin spiking from $25,000 to a whopping $32,500 per contract. Ouch! 💸 That means less leverage, more forced selling, and bam—silver futures tanked nearly 9% in a heartbeat, closing at $70.90 after peaking near $78.22 the day before. But let's zoom out: 2025 was an absolute beast for precious metals. Silver exploded over 140% for the year, while gold surged around 63

Raising margin requirement seeks to solve or in this case stem an immenent problem. The Fulfillment of physical silver. CME mandate is to facilitate the delivery of physical silver to the owner of those futures contract. While traditionally, contracts have been rolled over, December saw a different outcome. 60% of the expired contracts sought For delivery instead of rollover. So now what? Expect more CME intervention to stem runaway silver prices while they bolster their inventory.  I am still of the view that silver will climb.

With CES approaching, the focus is less on headline launches and more on narrative credibility. For Nvidia and AMD, the key test is whether Al advances move beyond data-centre dominance into repeatable, monetisable consumer use cases. Data-centre demand remains the earnings anchor, but physical Al, edge inference, and on-device computing will determine the next leg of adoption. Earlier Al devices showed that technical capability alone does not guarantee commercial traction. This time, investors will look for tighter integration between hardware, software, and real-world workflows rather than concept demos. The winners will be those that frame Al as infrastructure quietly embedded into daily experiences, not as a novelty feature. CES may not redefine near-term earnings, but it will shape ex

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ A few practical technical analysis insights that consistently hold up across market cycles: 1. Price leads indicators Indicators are derivatives of price. Always anchor analysis to structure first: trend, support and resistance, and market context. Indicators should confirm, not dictate. 2. Trend strength matters more than signals In strong trends, overbought or oversold readings can persist. Momentum tools like RSI or MACD work best when interpreted alongside trend direction, not in isolation. 3. Volume validates conviction Breakouts without volume are prone to failure. Rising volume during trend continuation signals institutional participation and improves probability. 4. Timeframe alignment reduces noise Conflicting signa

If I had to focus on three key sectors for 2026, they would be: 1. AI hardware and infrastructure This remains the core of the cycle. Demand is shifting from training to sustained utilisation, inference, memory, optics, power management, and EDA. Valuations matter, but earnings visibility supports this theme. 2. Application software with real AI monetisation 2026 is more about re-rating than growth acceleration. Winners will be sticky enterprise platforms embedding AI agents into workflows with clear pricing power and cash flow discipline. 3. Robotics and embodied AI (selective exposure) High potential but volatile. Near-term moves are sentiment-driven, while consolidation favours full-stack players with scale, data, and capital strength.

Why Did Marvell Take Notice of POET?

$POET Technologies Inc(POET)$ is emerging as a key enabler in the AI infrastructure boom, much like how char kway teow — that iconic, stir-fried noodle dish from Singapore and Msia— has risen from street food staple to a beloved, "must-have" favorite: it's the perfect mix of ingredients wok-fried at high heat for bold flavor, and once you taste it, you get why it's exploding in popularity.In the "wok" of modern AI data centers, the biggest bottleneck isn't raw GPU compute anymore — it's data movement. Chips crank out calculations lightning-fast, but electrical copper interconnects can't shuttle data quickly enough without guzzling power, generating heat, and driving up costs. The biggest challenge in

COMEX Raises Margins Again – Traders Cry: ‘Not Enough Chai Tow Kway to Stay in Line!

The silver market lately has been absolutely bonkers — like everyone's scrambling for the last curry pok at a hawker stall with an endless queue snaking around the block!

TA Education 9|How Do You Trade Candles? 5 Classic Patterns!

Hi, tigers! Let’s start this week’s lessons: Candlesticks Part 1A Japanese Candlestick Chart is a technical tool used to visualize the price movement of an asset over a specific period. Unlike a simple line chart that tracks only the closing price, a candlestick provides a complete picture of market sentiment by displaying four data points: Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC).The Structure:The Real Body: The wide, colored portion represents the range between the Open and Close. It reveals the "winner" of the session (Buyers vs. Sellers).The Shadows (Wicks): The thin lines extending above and below the body represent the High and Low extremes reached during the session. They reveal the "failed attempts" to push prices further.The Philosophy: A candlestick does not just record price; it record

🚨 Silver Bloodbath: -9% in a Flash! Is the "Super Cycle" Dead? The precious metals market just woke up to a crime scene. Silver futures plummeted 9% virtually overnight after the CME Group (the exchange governing futures) announced it is hiking margin requirements for Gold, Silver, Platinum, and Palladium. This wasn't a slow bleed—it was a liquidity air pocket. When the "House" changes the rules on leverage, the exit doors get jammed. But for savvy traders, the real question isn't "Why did it drop?" (we know why), but rather: "Is this the end of the rally, or the ultimate 'Buy the Blood' opportunity?" Let’s rip open the mechanics of this crash. 1️⃣ The "Liquidity Vacuum" Explained Retail traders often misunderstand margin hikes. They think, "Oh, it just costs a bit more to hold the trade."
