In Today’s Masters in Trading: Live Every day, I hop on Masters in Trading LIVE to teach you the fundamentals that have guided my approach to trading options over the last 20+ years. Whether I was making markets at the CME or managing risk for one of the biggest firms in the country, I’ve always carried the same mantra in my head: Education mitigates risk. We’re only as good as the intel and insights we wield. And I firmly believe one thing about the options market – it’s the perfect place to learn everything you need to become a master trader. What makes it all so rewarding is seeing you take the fundamentals I teach and apply them to your own trades. Today, I'm excited to share a homegrown story from our Discord that proves just how powerful the options education you get here can be. It's all about loyal viewer Eddie and the masterpiece trade idea he recently highlighted that embodies everything I teach. Eddie used the principles he’s learned from the community to spotlight one major stock flying under the radar with bullish call buying. The ticker? Krispy Kreme (DNUT) – a chain many of you are no doubt familiar with. Eddie spotted something the market was missing: Over 22,000 calls with thousands in open interest on the October 31st, $5 strike. Here's what made it interesting: The smart money bought way above market ASK prices – paying $1.10 when the market was trading at $0.70-$0.75. A beaten-down stock with massive call volume and institutional buyers paying above ask? The smart money was clearly positioning for something. So after Eddie spotted the call flow, he alerted our Advanced Notice cohort about this huge move.  Then he watched as they SOLD the $4 puts under bid price. That's conviction. Institutional traders were clearly telegraphing exactly where they think the stock’s going. As Eddie put it: "That's conviction. When they bought Calls above market, @ 1.10 and the market was .70x .75... I got in with UOA exp. they know more than me!" Eddie’s trade ticked all the Masters in Trading boxes… Catching Unusual Options Activity (UOA) before the rest of the market catches up? Check. Understanding what the options flow is telling you and getting in position? Check. Acting on institutional signals with confidence and solid logic? Check. These are the concepts I teach every single day. Back on the trading floor, this is how we made our living – spotting when institutional players were positioning and getting ahead of the retail crowd. Now traders like Eddie are doing the same thing. Join me for today’s episode of Masters in Trading, where I’ll break down exactly how Eddie's DNUT trade panned out and the key lessons he applied to make this winning move.
