Analysis
NU (Nu Holdings Ltd. Class A Ordinary Shares): $552K of buyer-initiated unusual call flow (100% call-dominant), IV rank 51 (moderate). Our gamma model reads NU in a NEGATIVE-gamma regime (net GEX -2.9M, flip —) — dealers are short gamma and amplify moves, so this is defined-risk only and leans with the flow. Structured as a Broken-Wing Bull Put (sell $12.5P / buy $11.5P) expiring 2026-11-13 (17 DTE) — negative-gamma (trend/gap risk) → defined-risk broken-wing leaning with flow. Net credit $40, max loss $60 (defined risk). Breakevens $12.10.
Setup Instructions
Underlying: NU @ ~$12.51 | 2026-11-13 (17 DTE) | Net credit (entry): ~$40 per spread. Use limit orders at the mid or slightly better.
Management Plan
ENTRY: Put on the broken-wing put spread: sell the $12.5 put, buy the further-OTM $11.5 put with a WIDER gap on the far wing, expiring 2026-11-13 (17 DTE), as one order at a LIMIT of the mid or better — target net credit $40. IV rank 51 is moderate — credit is workable but define risk and don't oversize. The skew removes upside risk while collecting a credit; the downside gap is the residual max loss ($60). | TAKE PROFIT: Buy it back to LOCK IN gains at ~50% of the $40 credit. Also close on TIME: exit around 21 DTE regardless of P&L to sidestep the late-cycle gamma/pin risk near NU's short strike(s) — currently 17 DTE, so plan the exit 0 day(s) out. Above $12.5 the whole credit is yours — take profits, don't carry the tail into expiration. Breakeven $12.10. | IF TESTED: The risk is a hard drop into the wide wing. When NU tests the $12.5 short put (delta ~0.30) or loss ≈$80, roll the structure DOWN and OUT ~7–14 days for a credit, or buy an extra long put to square the wing back into a symmetric (fully defined) spread. Treat a close below the $13 put wall as the hard trigger to act (the pin support has failed). dealer gamma is NEGATIVE (vol-amplifying) — moves accelerate here, so defend one trigger EARLIER than usual and don't wait for the strike to go in-the-money; put wall (support) at $13; call wall (resistance) at $14. If price reaches the $11.5 wing, you're at max loss ($60) — take it. EARNINGS: a report (2026-11-12) falls inside this trade — the post-print IV crush helps a seller, but the gap can jump a short strike, so do NOT add size into the event and be ready to take the defined-risk loss if it gaps through. | MAXIMIZE: Holding above $12.5? Let theta collect the full credit. Once most is banked, roll up toward the money next cycle for a richer credit, or convert into an iron condor by adding a call spread if the flow turns two-sided.
