Here’s a little thread detailing how I use @unusual_whales to follow the flow ⬇️🐳
First off, I personally use the ‘Super Live Buffet’ membership💰

This gives you access to:
- LIVE options flow feed with advanced tools🌊
- LIVE dark pool feed 🔮
- Premium Non-Delayed Alerts 🚨
- Stock Screener📈
- more 🔥
The LIVE options flow feed has become an invaluable tool in my daily trading. This is what it looks like ⬇️

When the module displays ‘Marketstate’ the rest of the numbers are referencing the market as a whole

Click “Show Charts” to pull up flow charts 🌊📈 Image
Live Flow Filter Settings:

•Premium Range: (50K💰+, usually several tabs open with different minimums. Up to $1M)
•All Emojis ON, except ETFs, leaps, indexes, & Deep ITM
• Next 4-5 expiries
💭 These are #bullish filter settings for finding plays OTM 2-3 weeks out 🐂 Image
You can also search specific tickers for their live flow. Take $XLE I’ve been watching this play very closely so I’ve had a screen dedicated just to it’s flow 💯 that’s how I get to know how whales are feeling all day long. Image
Take this flow read on $LCID

I start by taking a look at Put/Call ratio on the flow feed + total aggregate flow

Do a quick comparison of daily flow breakdown & historical flow. Is it more #bullish or #bearish than usual?

If there’s #unusual flow, then there’s a play there.
I call this strategy #FireFishing 🔥🎣
• Go to "🔥Hot Chains & Tickers"
• Find a ticker with 3 of the hottest chains 🥵
• Expiries must be within 14d ✅
• At least 1 of the chains has a strike OTM ✅
• See $TSLA in this pic for reference Image
If the ticker has all of these prerequisites then it is likely that a #Bullish move is expected by the general market.

$TSLA had 3 of the hottest chains in the market all with strikes within 14d. Today they announced that they topped vehicle delivery expectations👀
Oh & I’ll just leave this here 😈🔥 Image

OPTIONS RISK MANAGEMENT: A THREAD 🧵
Trading isn't gambling if you know how to manage risk

POV: You just made a +1,000% gain on your first $SPX options trade. Nice.

I know you feel good but don't get too cocky...

If you don't manage your risk you WILL blow up your account. But how do you do this? Keep reading.
Every single trade that you take must have a clear plan with a defined RISK AND REWARD.

If you're constantly feeling anxious after taking a trade then you probably didn't enter with much of a plan.

Before you enter a trade you should have a trading checklist that you go over:
