My hyper specific @unusual_whales strategy, The Blue Whalevator. A Thread.

This is an intraday strategy I've developed. It only takes huge whales, waits for confirmation, and filters out 99% of plays.

Fewer trades but high prob setups for bigger

DARKPOOL:

DP are private exchanges for trading that are not accessible by the investing public. DP came about primarily to facilitate block trading by institutional investors who did not wish to impact the markets with their large orders and obtain worse prices for their trades.

How I use DarkPool with @Tradytics :

Levels. Levels. Levels. I use DarkPool as areas of support/resistance. Ideally I like to find stocks over (calls) or under(puts) large prints. These prints will help keep the stock moving the direction you want. These levels CAN break. See 👇🏼

website puts them on a nice visual graph. This helps get a quick snapshot of the stock price and where that level is with how big it is (in $$). The site gives you sentiment of the print and labels it 🟢 or 🔴

Tradytics DarkPool 2:
You can even scroll down on the site and find more information. It aggregates the prints into a DP levels chart, a graph showing the daily DP amounts and daily sentiment of those prints.

Unusual Whales is an incredible tool that can take anyone's trading to the next level. It presents a ton of data, which can often be hard to synthesize.

This thread will provide a simplistic approach to analyzing and utilizing flow data. 🌊

1. Where To Start

Start with the "Hot Chains & Tickers" page. Not only does this display the tickers with the most option volume, but it also shows the most active chains. Better yet, you can filter by sector and market cap.

Below are some specific filter examples:

2. Analysis

The "Intraday Analyst" page is your best friend here. The first thing I do is scroll down to the "Most Active Chains" table.

I'm looking for short-term exp. OTM contracts with heavy volume that look "unusual."

Examples are included below:

$LCID - Closed Wed. 11/3 ~$36.50. 40c weeklies required a 10% move in 2 days to go ITM. $LCID closed at $41.80 on Friday.

$AMD - Closed Tues. 11/2 ~$127.60. 130c got hit hard. Closed the week over $136.

$NVDA - Closed Thurs. 10/28 ~249.40, 250c 🔨. Closed Friday ~255.70.

Weekly OTM strikes with heavy volume can lead to huge moves. Now what makes these so unusual?

- OTM with little time to exp. = urgency
- Heavy volume on a certain strike can mean volatility in that area = good for options
- Vol. much greater OTM than ATM = big move possibility
