If you've been trading for any amount of time, you're probably already aware of the concept of volatility and the impact it can have on the broader market. However, a concept that traders of all levels often miss is volatility supply. Volatility has a supply and demand curve, just like any other product, and it can be created or destroyed through a number of different means. Here's Cem Karsan 🥐 giving a great explanation of vol supply in response to a (very eloquent) YouTube comment asking about it! #StockMarket #Volatility #Investing #Finance #OptionsTrading

Everyone left Jackson Hole convinced Warsh is about to hike. Cem Karsan Cem Karsan 🥐 is calling the opposite right here. His read is that the hawkish talk was never about policy, it was a defense of the dollar. Bessent said the quiet part out loud yesterday: you do not raise rates into a supply shock.

65% of S&P daily volume is now zero DTE. On the Nasdaq, 82% expires in five days or less. Brent Kochuba SpotGamma says that is why the old relationships stopped working. Warsh signals a hike, which should send stocks lower, and the market barely blinks. Then a new AI model out of China knocks 15% off Nvidia. When everything is short dated, liquidity disappears the moment something unexpected shows up.

The S&P looks calm. The stocks inside it are anything but. Cem Karsan Cem Karsan 🥐 says that gap is the whole story right now. When index volatility gets compressed this hard, correlation between the individual names starts breaking down, and the index quietly masks how much those names are actually moving. That calm surface is not real. It is compression hiding what is underneath.

The last three midterms each began a decline of 10% or more. Sept 19 2014. Sept 20 2018. Aug 16 2022. Every one started within a day of opex or VIX expiration. Cem Karsan 🥐 read? The positioning that matters is concentrated in quarterly expirations, so the risk clusters on those dates rather than spreading evenly. Support flows peak Monday, then drop off into August opex.

They warned you. Nobody listened. Hank Paulson said months ago a treasury crisis was coming and they would need a facility to backstop the market. Cem Karsan Cem Karsan 🥐 has been screaming about it since. Now the yen intervention hits, long end buybacks double, and he says a hard cap is next. QE infinity.

Nobody has an edge. Larry Williams has been trading since 1962 and that is still his answer. His real point is the one most traders never hear. Watching a great trader and copying how they trade does not work, because what they are doing right has nothing to do with what you are doing wrong. He succeeds because he knows his own mistakes. You want to get faster, you do not copy the fastest sprinter alive. You find your weakness, fix it, then move to the next level.

Gold drops hard and everyone flips from ultra bullish to hating it overnight. Otavio (Tavi) Costa tells Ilya Spivak the thesis has not changed at all. Are central banks going to stop buying gold? Are we getting 5 to 7 rate hikes? If that is the bear case, it is nuts. This is what happens in gold cycles and the ones who lean on conviction when everybody panics are the ones who win.
