Hi all, I trade deep ITM LEAPS (0.70+ delta, \~365 DTE) on growth and catalyst-driven names (RKLB, NBIS, DRAM), mostly space and tech. I'm currently up \~300% over the past year, but I want to start putting more emphasis on macro.
I’m looking to weigh macro signals alongside company fundamentals for entries/exits. This way, I can hedge with long puts ahead of major macro pullbacks.
**How would you rank these by importance?**
**Macro & Central Bank Indicators**
* Fed rate decisions
* Yield curve inversion
* CPI/PPI prints
* Mag 7 earnings
* Inflation surprises
* Supply chain disruptions
**Sentiment & Volatility Indicators**
* VIX
* CNN Fear & Greed Index
* SPY vs 200-day SMA
What would you cut, what's missing and what are most important?
FYI alongside LEAPS, I intend to use these macro indicators to trade Cash Secured Puts for cheap stock entry, Credit Spreads & Iron Condors for flat markets, and long puts ahead of macro pull backs.
Open to all feedback.
