🐶 Options Puppy: How I Used Technical Analysis (TA) to Buy NVIDIA at $194.90 — Supported by Strong Fundamentals (FA) 🚀 Buying Great Companies at Better Prices One of the biggest mistakes investors make is believing they must buy a great company immediately. I prefer combining Fundamental Analysis (FA) and Technical Analysis (TA). Fundamentals tell me what to buy, while technical analysis helps me decide when to buy. Recently, I bought NVIDIA (NVDA) at $194.90. This was not a random purchase or an emotional decision because the price looked cheaper than before. Instead, I waited patiently for technical signals to line up while remaining confident in NVIDIA’s long-term business strength. For me, this combination of FA and TA creates a disciplined investing process instead of relying on guess

🐶 Options Puppy: My Cash-Secured Put Journey with NVIDIA (NVDA) 🦴 Collecting Premium While Waiting to Buy NVDA Many investors dream of owning NVIDIA (NVDA), but not everyone likes paying the current market price. I take a different approach. Instead of chasing the stock, I let the market pay me while I patiently wait. My favourite strategy is selling cash-secured puts. It allows me to generate consistent option income while only buying NVDA if it falls to a price I am already comfortable owning. To me, it is like getting paid to place a limit order. Recently, I continued selling the NVDA August 21, 2026 $190 Put and repeatedly collected option premiums. Every premium collected may seem small individually, but over time they add up into a meaningful stream of income. ⸻ 🐾 What Is a Cash-Secu

I would avoid treating a day or two of price action as confirmation of a lasting rotation. If softer labour data ultimately supports Fed rate cuts, both AI hardware and software could benefit. Hardware names also tend to be more cyclical and volatile, so sharp pullbacks are not unusual after strong rallies. Rather than switching wholesale, I would prefer a balanced approach: Keep core exposure to quality AI infrastructure if the long-term demand for compute and memory remains intact. Add selectively to software and platform leaders where earnings growth justifies valuations. Wait for the NFP report and upcoming earnings before concluding that capital has permanently rotated away from hardware. A durable rotation should be confirmed by fundamentals and earnings, not just a few sessions of m

In a stock market environment with ambiguous directionality and persistent consolidation, capital flow data often serves as the primary reference indicator for traders because these data are more authentic than sentiment. In last week's market liquidity data, we discovered: capital is accelerating its flight from US stocks, especially the seven major tech stocks tracked by Goldman Sachs, where the traces of institutional capital withdrawal are already quite clear. Moreover, the overall net capital flow of individual US stocks is once again showing an expanding outflow. In the latest weekly data of institutional capital inflows and outflows for major seats compiled by Goldman Sachs, massive amounts of capital are fleeing US tech stocks, particularly the 7 star tech stocks:

TRADE PLAN for Thursday 🎲 $SPX very choppy day today, SPX moved from 7450 to 7521 in 90 minutes then chopped around all day. SPX needs to get through 7500 to set up for ATH at 7620. SPX July 2 7520C can work above 7500 $HOOD setting up for 120 this month. It's been in a 6 month consolidation and it looks like its finally ending. HOOD 153 back in play this year. HOOD through 153 can run to 200 HOOD July 10 115C can work above 110 $QQQ lagging behind SPX today. Chip stocks dragging down the Nasdaq. If QQQ can get back through 731 I'd consider calls. Wait for this level. 

Today's headline and today's structure are telling two different stories, and understanding the gap between them is the whole point of this insight. On the surface, the $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ just closed out its strongest quarter in six years. Underneath, the position is still sitting in a Bearish zone that's been held for over two weeks. Both things are true at once — and the probability of that tension resolving is now climbing fast. What actually moved the tape today Tuesday's rally had a clear engine: chips. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ $Intel(INTC)$
