The following is an excerpt from Todd "Bubba" Horwitz's Bubba’s Guide to Trading Options

Options are priced differently than any other class of assets.  The auction market is still the mechanism used to discover price, however volatility (implied volatility) will determine the normal price at any point in time.

Visualize the option model to be a balloon attached to the spot, or market price of an asset, in this case a stock. As you pump air into the balloon it expands equally in all directions. The more air added, the bigger the balloon’s expansion. Think of the air going into the balloon as option “premium”. This is the amount that buyers are willing to pay over the “intrinsic value” to own an option at a particular strike price.

If we were to suck all of the air out of the balloon, the option price would fall back to a specific “flat” cost relative to the underlying asset (current market price of our stock). The option model expands in all directions. The longer time to expiration OR the higher the volatility (more “air”) for an option with an At-The-Money (ATM) strike price – which has no intrinsic value – the option’s absolute value (price) at all strike prices would be higher.

The following is an excerpt from Tom DeMark's The New Science of Technical Analysis

My research confirms the fact that, prior to a price top or bottom, the market announces its intentions regarding price direction loud and clear to any trader willing to listen. Specifically, the market forewarns the trader whether it is predisposed toward a price top or toward a price bottom. In other words, the market’s environment or inclination to top or to bottom is first defined by the setup phase. Because my entire approach is mechanical, as are the additional filters required to actually generate the buy and sell signals, I developed a checklist to simplify this process. The feature of this approach is its design to buy into weakness and to sell into strength. Once all the prerequisites are satisfied in the order required, a signal occurs. Hence, the name Sequential™ was given to the system.

Countdown

Once your setup has been satisfied, the countdown process begins. Countdown describes the relationship of the close to either the high or the low price two trading days earlier, depending on whether a sell or a buy setup is active. With respect to a pending buy signal, the close must be less than the low two days earlier; with respect to a pending sell signal, the close must be greater than the high two trading days earlier. Once a total of 13 closes less than the low two trading days earlier (in the case of a buy), or a total of 13 closes greater than the high two trading days earlier (in the case of a sell) are recorded, a signal is generated.

Every week Andy publishes his “Weekly Market Line in the Sand” newsletter. The following are trade updates from his most recent issue.

DOW Futures Weekly: The upside breakout in the Mini Dow futures points to a further advance. The current targets are 20,000 and 22,500. The market appears to be overbought on a weekly basis. Corrections are expected to yield to buying opportunities. A weekly close below 17,418 would put the bullish outlook on hold.

DIA Weekly: The bullish breakout points to a further advance. The initial targets are 200 and 210. The market appears to be overbought on a weekly basis. Corrections are expected to yield to buying opportunities. A weekly close below 178.64 would put the bullish outlook on hold.
