Sridhar’s $67K Win + My Robinhood Trade Setup
Hey Options Trader,
Markets just hit fresh all-time highs, and while I remain bullish long term, I’m playing more cautious in the short term. With VIX in the mid-14s and the Fed’s next move around the corner, I’d rather keep cash ready than be caught fully invested during a pullback.
Here’s what we are covering:
My cautious outlook and why VIX levels matter right now
Sridhar’s $67K August win and other client profits
A safe Robinhood trade setup paying 3.5% in 35 days

Market Snapshot
$QQQ ( ▲ 0.9% ) pushed to 587 today, setting new highs. I do think we could climb into the 595–600 range next week, but as VIX trends lower, the odds of a 5–10% pullback rise significantly.
Right now, $VIX ( ▼ 0.13% ) is in the mid-14s. If it drops into the 13s, I’ll stay even more cautious, because that’s historically where pullbacks tend to appear. I’m sitting on 25% cash to take advantage of opportunities when they come.
Catalysts ahead: the Fed’s rate decision. Odds heavily favor a 25 basis point cut, which markets would welcome. But a surprise 50 basis point cut (about 5% odds) could spook investors short term by signaling the Fed is behind the curve.

New all time highs on QQQ, near overbought levels

Client Spotlight
We just interviewed Sridhar, one of our career-professional clients who wanted structure and consistency in his trading. He hit his highest month ever in August, pulling in $67,000, a 19% return in one month. Be sure to check out his story.
Other client wins this week:
Mike posted his biggest week yet, with $14,000 in profits.
Multiple new clients closed out Palantir LEAPS alongside me for strong gains.
Consistency and execution are what drive results, and it’s great to see both from our group.
