“0DTE is gambling.”

That’s what people say when they don’t have a system.

I just walked through exactly how I’m pulling +103%, +263%, +152% – same day, defined risk, done by close.

Don here…

Someone just made a $14 million bet on a stock most traders have never heard of.

Brandon spotted 60,000 call contracts hit Compass Inc. (COMP) in a single print today. Within two minutes, the stock ripped from $10.44 to $10.76 on an intraday gamma squeeze.

The trade happened at 1:12 PM Eastern while everyone else was watching gold crash 4% and silver drop 7%.

Brandon tracked the full option flow and found a structural setup building at successive strike prices:

• 10,000 contracts at $10 already in open interest
• 27,000 contracts at $12 creating the next pressure point
• 82,000 contracts accumulating at $14 as the ultimate target

This is how gamma squeezes ladder higher. Each strike level becomes a trigger for the next. Break $11 and hedging pressure pushes it to $12. Clear $12 and the $14 strike becomes the magnet. Someone is betting on a 40% move in the next few weeks.

Brandon identified a specific way to trade this asymmetry. The February $11/$13 call spread costs about 58 cents. If COMP reaches just north of $12 anytime in the next 53 days, that spread could deliver a 70% gain. You don’t need the stock to hit $14 to profit.

The broader market is flashing warning signs. The Santa Claus rally is failing with back-to-back down days. 

Gold and silver are deleveraging hard. 

The yen is strengthening against the dollar while other currencies weaken. 

Brandon calls this the most bearish scenario playing out in currency markets right now.

But individual stocks can move independently when option flow creates structural pressure. COMP dropped 25% in two days back in November. It could also rally 40% in the next few weeks if this call ladder triggers.
