    In this episode, we explore a SPY call-buying strategy with a 53% win rate and a 2:1 risk-reward ratio. This strategy, built on data and technical analysis, is designed for consistent execution and measurable results.

    The audio for this show is from a recent YouTube video.

    SPY Call Buying Video Course: https://www.stockmarketoptionstrading.net/spaces/17635818

    Key Strategy Highlights:

    1. Core Strategy:

    • Buy SPY calls (Delta 70) on Monday at 3:30 PM.
    • Use a 50% stop loss and a 100% profit target for the 2:1 risk-reward ratio.
    • The strategy has shown an average winner of $600 and an average loser of $340.

    1. Technical Conditions:

    • SPY must be above its 20-day SMA, indicating a short-term uptrend.
    • RSI must be below 70 to avoid overbought conditions.

    1. Weekly Triumph Rate (WTR):

    • Check WTR data on AlphaCrunching.com before the trading week.
    • Only trade if Monday’s WTR is above 50% or improving from the previous week.
    • WTR provides insights into the probability of SPY closing higher the following week.

    1. Pre-Market Planning:

    • WTR data is available on Sunday, allowing for early decision-making.
    • Trade ideas are updated weekly for subscribers on Alpha Crunching.
