Time horizon

Think in terms of the next few weeks.

Confidence & best fit

medium confidence · Active trader

Quick glossary: Watch = track, don’t buy yet · Build slowly = only if it fits your plan · Protect = reduce risk · ETF = a basket of stocks (often safer than one company)
Safer theme exposure (ETFs)

Options (education only)

No strikes or expiries — a framework for how traders might express the view. Options can expire worthless.

Direction: volatile · Style: Debit spread (defined risk) · Level: intermediate

Experienced traders might use options to profit from big price swings without buying the stock directly, but beginners should skip this during high uncertainty.
