💸 This Prompt Shows You What Smart Money Is Accumulating—Before It’s Obvious
Most investors watch price action in the open market.
Pros watch what never hits the tape:
Dark‑pool prints – off‑exchange block trades that hide big hands.
Whale option sweeps – lightning‑fast blocks that reveal near‑term conviction.
I fed both data streams into ChatGPT and told it to surface names where stealth share buying + aggressive call flow align.
Below is today’s output.

Why All Those Calls Sit At‑The‑Money
Options come in three flavours:
Out‑of‑the‑Money (OTM) – cheap lottery tickets, low hit‑rate.
At‑the‑Money (ATM) – sweet spot of cost vs. sensitivity.
In‑the‑Money (ITM) – almost stock‑like, but pricey.
Pros pile into ATM sweeps because they deliver:
Balanced delta (~0.50) – every $1 move in the stock moves the option about 50 ¢.
Maximum gamma – small price nudges snowball into faster option gains.
Heavy liquidity – tight spreads let big players scale size without tipping bids.
Capital efficiency – far less cash than buying shares, with risk capped at the premium.
When you see stealth dark‑pool buying plus ATM call aggression, it’s the clearest footprint of short‑term institutional conviction.
That’s it. No crystal ball. Just alignment.
