| | Don Kaufman here. | The moment we’ve been waiting for is finally upon us - it’s Election Day! | Now is when all our preparation as traders pays off if we know how to read the markets. | I want to break down what Mr. Market is signaling about tonight’s results. | Follow the Dollar 💵 | As a trader, you gotta follow one rule - follow the money! | And right now, the money is flooding into the US dollar, which suggests smart money is betting on a Trump victory. | If you don’t believe me, take a look at Bitcoin today… | | | | I don’t get caught up in flashy headlines or wild predictions - I trust the greenback and so should you! | Potential Trades to Make Some Money 💰 | Based on the price action I'm seeing, here are a couple trades I have my eye on: | With Tesla surging ahead of the election, I may look to sell call credit spreads. The elevated premiums from the IV spike provide a nice cushion. If emerging markets like EEM sell off on a Trump win, I may leg into call debit spreads. The drop in volatility after the event could crush premiums and accelerate gains. I've got my sights on a potential reversal play in the Nasdaq or QQQ with how extended the move up is. Selling a call credit spread up near the top end would offer a great risk/reward. Gold and bonds may offer volatility plays depending on if the Fed cuts rates later this week as expected.
