In this short YouTube segment, host Dave Barnhart highlights a subscriber, known as "The Alien," who executed a rapid short‑term options trade on Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI) based on a trade setup Dave called out on February 6th. Dave reviews the technical callout, noting volume expectations above 3,250 and a series of price pivots and CAM (candle‑adjusted moves) at $33, $33.15, $33.50, $34, $34.50, $34.83, and $35, with $35 identified as a resistance (R2) level. The Alien entered the trade at 9:44 AM, buying $33 call contracts for $0.63 each, expiring the next day. Within seven minutes he sold part of the position at $0.90 (a 43 % gain), and seven minutes later exited the remainder at $1.20 (a 90 % gain). Dave praises the trade, emphasizes MobyTickTrading’s daily trade‑setup service, and ends with a call to like, subscribe, and start a 7‑day free trial at mobyticktrading.com.

Hello traders! One of our subscribers, The Alien, wrote in wanting to share his trade he took based on a trade setup we called out on Thursday, February 6th on SMCI using options. Let's flash back to yesterday to recap the callout. Volume will get above 3250 with a target of 33, 3315, so we can see that these pivots and CAMs $33.50, $34, $34.50. Then we've got $34.83 and $35 right here. This is an R2. This will be some resistance here. Here to explain his trade is the alien himself.
I entered the trade at 9:44 AM buying the SMCI $33 calls for $0.63 per contract expiring the next day. 7 minutes later at 9:51 AM, I took a percentage of the profit for 90 cents, or a 43% gain at $27 per contract. Another 7 minutes later at 9:58 AM, I exited the rest of my position at $1.20 for 90% gain, $57 per contract. Not bad for 15 minutes' work. Thanks, Moby, for the callout.
