TWIFO 495: Insane Equities and a Secret Oil Substitute

Is soybean oil the new crude? As energy markets continue to dominate the headlines, Carley Garner (DeCarley Trading) joins Mark Longo to break down a wild week in the futures and options pits. From WTI crude skyrocketing toward $110 to the S&P 500 hitting "obscene" new intraday highs on the back of AI spending, the markets are anything but quiet. In this episode, Mark and Carley discuss: Energy Overdrive: Why WTI crude is seeing massive volume in the June $120 calls and July $70 puts. The "Secret" Substitute: Why traders looking for lower risk and high correlation are moving from WTI to Soybean Oil . Equities on Fumes: A look at the "insane" S&P 500 rally—is it fueled by AI infrastructure or just "fake money" in the system? Natural Gas Strategy: Why the $3.00 level is the focal point and how to scale into long positions with minis. Ag & Livestock: A "toppy" look at Live Cattle and why the seasonal trend favors the bears.
