Plodding away at long market directions current, as it's important to know market direction. Apart from hedging long term holdings we can :
In a long market we can always buy dips. In a short market we can always sell rips.

Almost there..Sorry that our AI predictive system is taking a long time to train. Our bullish indicators are firing, our bearish is 50/50. It will be built into a simple daily panel in stock watch, with ND subs getting some more functionality @here

Market Overview:
VIX VXX: ๐ŸŸ , neutral VIX has turned bearish
VXX and UVXY are back to neutral from a momentary bullish start to the week
DPI was well bought but only the standard hedging IMO

Indexes:
SPXL SPY SPX: ๐ŸŸ  -> ๐ŸŸข, Strong bounce with the Wednesdays positioning pulling the markets up.
SPY and SPX neutral in OI with strong profit taking
The market drivers are more concentrated each week
TQQQ QQQ NDX QQQE: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , QQQE holding a strong bullish liquidity
QQQ and TQQQ strong profit taking

Mag 7:
MAG7: ๐ŸŸ , Mags barely holding it's own as liquidity dries up
Neutral great for dispersion around the indexes
OI ITM calls closing and OTM opening, neutral to bearish
TSLA: ๐ŸŸ , definitely being held by the market direction
Will drop hard at the next market turn unless long term positioning changes

Memestocks:
GME: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , Swapping between neutral and bearish long term positioning
Short term OI has turned neutral and bearish just under the surface
I'll keep watching for the IV moment, it's not happening at now.

Focus stocks:
ENPH: ๐ŸŸข, Big candles
Strong buying day ITM calls

Crypto:
MARA: ๐ŸŸ , Bullish liquidity
The accumulation seems to have cooled, but a strong underlying is held
Iv has fallen off a cliff, what's that about ?
Just bought into the close, though pretty flat
Sorry if I'm flipping between neutral and bullish long term.
I think lots of the miners are morphing in the eyes of the markets into something that isn't related to BTC apart from their history
Bitcoin COIN: ๐Ÿ”ด -> ๐ŸŸข, COIN has swung quickly into bullish short term
Long term is still bearish

Daily Report for NYSE - May 20, 2026

Market Overview:
SPX SPXL SPY: ๐ŸŸ , Strengthening under the surface OTM calls
Lackluster DPI
Liquidity loosened enough with yesterday rise that we need stronger DPI to keep the climb up the wall of worry.
Yesterday should have been a green day in analysis, bad on my part
QQQ TQQQ NDX: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , Strong OI in all the proxies growing ITM calls and closing ITM puts
Bullish just under the surface around 0.4 Delta
Hedging weakening in the NAS Big-Techless

Mag 7:
MAG7 and NVDA: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , Hedging strengthening into NVDA earnings
Nvda had a good buying day in liquidity
DPI continuing to weaken after a strong April.
Long term positioning in NVDA has new deep ITM call positions after it reached new highs. This coincides with lower DPI suggesting sold calls covering the overstretched price discovery. Probably the product of the lowering of banks requirements to hold equity for SRP transactions providing way to much liquidity looking for a home.

Memestocks:
GME: ๐ŸŸ  -> ๐ŸŸข, Strengthen in liquidity and short dte OI
But long dte and liquidity seem to be heavy ??

Focus stocks:
UBER: ๐ŸŸ , Almost ready to fire up, just back into sideways coasting.
DPI has definitely done it building, though hedging just holding on

Crypto:
COIN and BTC telling you the story: ๐Ÿ”ด
MARA: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , DPI dipping sharply and sold into the close.
OI positioning remaining bullish

Daily Report for NYSE - May 11, 2026

Market Overview:
VXX VIX: ๐ŸŸ , Long term has moved back to netral
One trader entered on the 21/04 bounce and held 1 delta puts until the 7/05, ballsy
VXX buy signal bought though oi still negative suggesting any VIX price bump will be small
VIX options mixed, though slightly bullish
Liquidity buying into the close

Indexes:
SPX SPY SPXL: ๐ŸŸข, SPXL profit taking weekly roll
SPX profit taking no fear
SPY bearish not strong shorting just hedging, maybe CPI and macroeco data drops, liquidity strong
Liquidity mixed in other proxies.
Inverse indexes flattening a little still bearish
QQQ TQQQ NDX: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , Heavy weekly roll with strong profit taking, bought into the close

Commodities:
GOLD GLD GDX: ๐ŸŸข, Slowly becoming a bullish long term position
Bullish weekly roll, though gamma throw around as seen in futures before the open
Bullish continuation in weeklies with no new shorts, no big openings in OTM calls
Bought into the close
Very strong DPI
SLV Silver and miners: ๐ŸŸข, Bought into the close
Miners strong DPI and weekly roll
IV still crazy high

Mag 7:
MAG7: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , Short dte OI more bearish
Balanced in the long dte OI which should just drift up

SPXL holding neutral to bullish
SPX and SP500 DPI supportive still relatively bullish, OI holding
SPY weakened with strong profit taking again, some new hedging not strong though

Memestocks:
GME: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐Ÿ”ด, Puts were puts today. Maybe I misunderstood positioning yesterday with quite bullish liquidity.
Today was bearish liquidity, closing ITM calls and opening more ITM puts resulting in price going down as selling.
Long term positioning is weakening and becoming bearish
DPI poor again
MARA: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐Ÿ”ด, Yoyo
Selling and hedging day
What's going on in the Memestocks
Continued strong DPI, something driving underlying buying ?IV still sinking

https://www.nakeddelta.com/stock_watch/?d=2026-04-29 Market update @here

Our first new automated OI data analysis processed today, training worked perfectly on the test tickers. Harry and I hope to have it in place to takeover from my dodgy subjectivity asap. The battle has been working with stored data written in SQL, much tricker than farmers like me think.
Once finished it will give us a base of 30 tickers everyday for this market update. ND subs will be able to use it in the research tab for all tickers, it does crunch credits so will be limited to some extent.

QQQ NAS: ๐ŸŸข -> ๐ŸŸ , QQQs bullish OI TQQQ bearish with a poor weekly roll
Flat day with all the upside in the MAG7
No NDBuy in the SQQQ(or SH)

Commodities:
Gold SGOL GLD: ๐ŸŸ  -> ๐ŸŸข, GLD is falling into negative gamma territory, but the OI is strengthening for longs.
Aiming to buy at 424.8
DPI starting to bump up after selling all of last week.
This was a strong correlation with Long bonds which has a NDBuy signal currently
SGOL OI shaping up too

Mag 7:
MAG7 MAGS: ๐ŸŸข, Poor weekly roll, still pretty bullish
A lot of hedging being pushed into the NQ1! liquidity
DPI pulling back with some profit taking and IV forcing dealers to sell into the rise today

Inverse BitcoinX still ready to buy, nervous positioning in bonds and BTC

Daily Report for NYSE - April 24, 2026

Market Overview:
VIX VXX: ๐ŸŸ , The VIX traders are selling again with strong opening of OTM puts
VXX traders are holding long
I'm expecting a bullish day Monday, but VXX traders think we are in for some volatility this week.
Liquidity is as mixed as the positioning.
Volatility NDBuy signals rarely miss bottoms, so be cautious.
I'm looking for a short entry in the coming weeks as longs are long in the tooth

Indexes:
SPX SY/PY SPXL: ๐Ÿ”ด -> ๐ŸŸข, The market is flip flopping, crazy earnings
SPY squeezed big time, SPXL too but not as much
SPX strong profit taking after a bet each way on Thursday, hedging remaining into the weekend
SPXL
QQQs MAGS NAS: ๐ŸŸ  -> ๐ŸŸข, Strong buying day
DPI supportive
TQQQ and QQQs building delta hedging and calls rolling OTM
Bullish

Memestocks:
GME: ๐Ÿ”ด -> ๐ŸŸ , GME did some short dte and liquidity fixing today but positioning has become bearish long term
DPI and IV supportive
Hitting the Gamma ceiling bearish long term
MARA: ๐ŸŸ , More sideways to bearish

DPI is supportive
Earnings looking a bit dodgy

Focus stocks:
NDBuy signals NVO BABA GLD ENPH: ๐ŸŸ  -> ๐ŸŸข, NDBuy signal offers changing sentiment in tickers, usually when big players decide to take strong new long positions in a stock. It also offers great industry and sector rotation timing often before price discovery has started or max pain bottom found. Got thank Tom for sending me back to an indicator Harry and I developed 6 years ago. It has more alpha for the investor than anything I've found
We are hoping to produce it's ugly cousin the NDSell signal in the coming days

NVO
BABA
still waiting on GLD, OI is bullish, DPI id poor still looking for $420

Crypto:
Bitcoin and Crypto Miners: ๐ŸŸ , Bitcoin miners have had a good NDbuy on the second recent bottom
Bitcoin proxies and COIN still well hedged, though to close hedging
Inverse Bitcoin and proxies neutral with their buy signal not bought

Daily Report for NYSE - April 22, 2026

Market Overview:
VIX VXX: ๐ŸŸ , VXX flat OI
VIX light positioning and flat to bullish day set up with OI closing across the strikes.
I think VIX shows us two things. Firstly there's no gain in trading, and or traders can't feel a path way to prce change.
That could all be due to the market forces of Earnings hedging

Indexes:
TQQQ QQQ NDX: ๐Ÿ”ด -> ๐ŸŸ , Big squeeze in NAS
strong buying all day especially in MAG7
OI huge swing long over the last 2 weeks with lots of short covering driving the price
Squeezed SPXL SPY, SPX stayed long: ๐Ÿ”ด -> ๐ŸŸข, SPX didn't budge much stayed bullish, the proxies were all bearish and get squeezed
SPXL and SPY have moved to bullish, with buying in liquidity and DPI
It's all pretty reacttive when you don't get the memo from Trump's team before the close
Inverse indexbSH, no NDBuy signal yet
The gamma reset is good enough to have continued upside.
Any strong dips are back on the table, for buying

Commodities:
GLD: ๐ŸŸ , Good buying over recent days after a pullback
OI mixed but bullish and strengthening

Memestocks:
GME: ๐ŸŸ , Strong buying on Tuesday drove today, though I think we have a lot of sold puts here.
IV starting to increase but not squeezy yet
MARA: ๐ŸŸ , Strong DPI cont'
Mixed OI ??
Dealer selling day with IV rising, attached infoimage

Crypto:
Bitcoin and COIN: ๐Ÿ”ด -> ๐ŸŸ , Strong buying all day in liquidity, big hedging cover in proxies
COIN still increasing hedging,
Still not a green market
Inverse Bitcoin NDBuy signal opens right up again, tender hooks, COIN thinks so too

Earnings:
TSLA: ๐Ÿ”ด, Mixed signals with heavy hedging in place, I still expect a dip day tomorrow, even though we should get some market upside as hedging is bought back

SPY bearish to neutral
SPX neutral to bullish
QQQ TQQQ NDX: ๐ŸŸ  -> ๐Ÿ”ด, Neutral at best
Bearish in OI and liquidity
The heavy hedging from the earnings is providing strong vol compression
Expect the MemeStocks to keep jumping around
some buying into the close, but not much in a bearish day

Mag 7:
MAG7 MAGS TSLA: ๐ŸŸ , Mixed positioning but remaining in the negative
Liquidity has seen a lot of hedging opened.
Some members of the MAG have strengthened.
TSLA has weakened, poor OI and liquidity

Memestocks:
Memestocks GME POET CAR etc: ๐ŸŸ , Bullish liquidity and DPI
OI looking bearish, but I expect it is just puts being sold rather then hedging bought.
IV not squeezy yet in GME
But as you can see it is squeezy with vol compression as we come into earnings and with a war ongoing

Crypto:
Bitcoin COIN: ๐Ÿ”ด, DPI continues to drop in the BitcoinX group, IBIT flattening slightly
COIN OI weakened to a BEARISH position, ITM calls closing OTM calls opening, hedging increasing. selling liquidity just bought into the close
Inverse buy signal bought
Crypto miners and MARA: ๐ŸŸ , Heavy OI Bearish
Poor liquidity
Strong DPI showing dip buying, but the liquidity isn't so supportive
