Musical chairs market. Everyone knows it's overbought and
overvalued, but you can't short it because market manipulation via
derivatives is making it too dangerous. That leaves playing it very
carefully with an eye always on an open chair. The bubbles
coming out of this type of environment will dwarf everything we've
seen up to this point. Meme stocks make even late 1990's dot com
valuations seem reasonable....and now the institutions are porting
the strategy over to influence much larger names and indexes.
Find unreasonable/irrational options activity and follow it.
E.g. SPX SEP 4800 calls getting bought heavily today. Not rational
but creates a magnet effect.

that's also what the KISS systems do, they give you a chair to sit in with their STS stops
Yep, and the smaller player

Yep, and the smaller player sentiment I'm hearing is "I'm buying calls until it doesn't work anymore"
The inverse 2022 perhaps.
