## Updated 12:30 p.m. CT

At 12:30 p.m. CT we re-checked public X calls logged through 12:30 p.m. CT. One new name joined the Top 10 Day-Trader Trades list. No new names joined the Top 10 Options Moves list.

### Day-Trader Trades (new at 12:30 p.m. CT)

| Ticker | Direction | Score | Callers (weight) |
|---|---|---|---|
| BABA | Long | 0.48 | [Yode (@MarketYode, building, weight 0.48)](https://x.com/MarketYode/status/2118752212641866049) |

BABA is a share-level long lean: over 112 can see 116 then 120 (weekly higher low vs downtrend). Distinct from MarketYode's earlier same-day BABA calls-off-105 options watchlist trigger already on the Options list.

Current Top 10 Options Moves as of 12:30 p.m. CT: GS short, JPM short, BABA long, MSTR short, SPY long (5 names; short list).

Current Top 10 Day-Trader Trades as of 12:30 p.m. CT: SPY long, UVXY long, NBIS long, CRDO long, QQQ long, TSLA long, BABA long, TEVA long, AAPL long, STAA long.

## Updated 10:30 a.m. CT

At 10:30 a.m. CT we re-checked public X calls logged through 10:30 a.m. CT. Three new names joined the Top 10 Options Moves list and two new names joined the Top 10 Day-Trader Trades list.

### Options Moves (new at 10:30 a.m. CT)

| Ticker | Direction | Score | Callers (weight) |
|---|---|---|---|
| JPM | Short | 1.02 | [Yode (@MarketYode, positive, weight 1.02)](https://x.com/MarketYode/status/2118707152508305465) |
| BABA | Long | 1.02 | [Yode (@MarketYode, positive, weight 1.02)](https://x.com/MarketYode/status/2118707152508305465) |
| MSTR | Short | 1.02 | [Yode (@MarketYode, positive, weight 1.02)](https://x.com/MarketYode/status/2118707152508305465) |

JPM is a puts-under-355 watchlist trigger. BABA is a calls-off-105 watchlist trigger. MSTR is a puts-under-124 watchlist trigger (reverses MarketYode's prior MSTR long watchlist lean from 2026-11-05).

### Day-Trader Trades (new at 10:30 a.m. CT)

| Ticker | Direction | Score | Callers (weight) |
|---|---|---|---|
| QQQ | Long | 0.48 | [Ripster (@ripster47, building, weight 0.48)](https://x.com/ripster47/status/2118717242787660158) |

QQQ is a session long lean as VIX breaks 25 (same post also covers SPY, already on the list). TSLA is named as the best long this morning.

Current Top 10 Options Moves as of 10:30 a.m. CT: GS short, JPM short, BABA long, MSTR short, SPY long, MOD long, CRDO long (7 names; short list).

## Summary

- Window: public X posts from Nov 4 5:42 AM to Nov 6 5:42 AM Arizona time (48 hours before the 9:30 a.m. ET open on November 6, 2026).
- Calls in window: 36 logged; 29 were long or short (neutral leans are not counted).
- Top options moves (4): GS short, SPY long, MOD long, CRDO long.
- Top day-trader trades (8): SPY long, UVXY long, TEVA long, CRDO long, NBIS long, AAPL long, STAA long, MU long.
- Each caller's vote is weighted by their record on the matching MCAFax scoreboard: the Options scoreboard for options moves, the Day Trading scoreboard for day trades. Only callers with a positive or still-building record can put a trade on the list; callers with a negative record (15+ scored calls, shrunk win rate 50% or lower) only add a small consensus bonus when they agree with a positive caller. Callers with no scored calls in that category get a baseline vote of 0.50.

## Top 10 Options Moves

Only 4 options calls (posts naming calls, puts or a spread) qualified in this window, so this list has 4 entries, not 10. We do not fill gaps with made-up trades. Any field the caller did not state is marked 'not stated'.

## Top 10 Day-Trader Trades

Only 8 US-listed long or short calls qualified in this window, so this list has 8 entries, not 10.

Day-list rule (from 2026-10-20): only explicit short-horizon trade calls (a stated entry, target, stop or trigger, or a today/this-week/intraday timeframe) on liquid US-listed stocks (NYSE, Nasdaq, NYSE American, NYSE Arca or Cboe; price $2 or more; 20-day average dollar volume $10M or more) qualify. Fund-letter, holdings and long-horizon value mentions, OTC names and calls from company insiders are left off.

## Methodology

1. **Source.** We log public stock calls from tracked investors on X into the MCAFax Market Calls database. Each row has the post link, time, ticker and direction (long, short or neutral).
2. **Window.** Calls posted in the 48 hours before the 9:30 a.m. ET open. Neutral leans are skipped.
3. **Caller weight.** Options moves use the Options scoreboard; day trades use the Day Trading scoreboard. A short-horizon win means the stock moved in the called direction by the close, within 5 trading days, or (options with a stated expiry) by expiry. Raw weight = 2 x hit rate, kept between 0.25 and 1.75, so a coin-flip record is 1.0. With n scored calls, weight = 0.50 x 10/(n+10) + raw x n/(n+10), so a new caller starts at a 0.50 baseline and moves toward their real record as calls are scored. Ranked players (15+ scored calls in that category) get x1.10.
4. **Caller status.** With 15+ scored calls in the category, a caller is **positive** if their shrunk win rate (wins + 5) / (scored + 10) is above 50% (on Long-Term, average edge vs the S&P 500 must also be above zero), otherwise **negative (consensus only)**. Fewer than 15 scored calls = **building**. Status is recomputed every trading day, so a caller whose record turns positive gets full weight back automatically.
5. **Who can put a trade on the list.** Positive and building callers. Building callers are allowed because the Day Trading and Options scoreboards are new and almost nobody has 15 scored calls yet. Negative callers never originate a trade.
6. **Trade score.** Sum of the weights of positive and building callers on one ticker and direction, plus 0.15 for each negative caller making the same call when at least one positive caller is on it (all negatives together add at most 0.50), minus half the weight of positive and building callers on the opposite side. Negative callers on the opposite side subtract nothing. Only scores above zero are listed. Ties go to more callers, then the earlier post.
7. **Options vs day trades.** A call is an options move when the post names calls, puts or a spread; we record the type, strike and expiry exactly as stated. Watchlist triggers like calls over $150 count, with the trigger level shown. Other calls go in the day-trader list only if they are explicit short-horizon trade calls (stated entry, target, stop or trigger, or a today/this-week/intraday timeframe) on a liquid stock listed on NYSE, Nasdaq, NYSE American, NYSE Arca or Cboe (price $2+, 20-day average dollar volume $10M+). Calls by company insiders are excluded.
8. **No invented data.** Prices, targets, strikes and expiries appear only if the caller stated them. If fewer than 10 trades qualify, the list is shorter.

**Not investment advice.** MCAFax tallies public calls and reports how past calls performed. Past results do not predict future ones.

## Questions readers ask

**What is the MCAFax Top Trades list?**

A daily pre-market tally of public stock calls from investors we track on X. It ranks the top options moves and day-trade ideas by a weighted vote.

**How are callers weighted?**

By their record on the matching scoreboard: Options for options moves, Day Trading for day trades. Positive and building callers vote with weight 0.50 x 10/(n+10) + clip(2 x hit rate, 0.25, 1.75) x n/(n+10), x1.10 if ranked. Callers with a negative record (15+ scored calls, shrunk win rate 50% or lower) cannot put a trade on the list; they add 0.15 each when they agree with a positive caller, 0.50 at most, and subtract nothing when they disagree.

**What counts as a win?**

For day trades and options, a call wins if the stock moved in the called direction by the close or within 5 trading days, or by the stated option expiry. Our Long-Term scoreboard keeps the 180-day beat-the-S&P 500 rule.

**Why are there fewer than 10 trades on a list?**

We only list calls that were actually posted in the window. If fewer than 10 qualify, we show fewer instead of making trades up.

**How do you tell an options move from a day trade?**

A call is an options move if the post names calls, puts or a spread. We record the strike and expiry only when stated. Other long or short calls on US-listed stocks go in the day-trader list.

**What window does the list cover?**

Calls posted in the 48 hours before the 9:30 a.m. ET open on the publish date.

**Is this investment advice?**

No. This page tallies public calls by other people and reports their track records. It is not a recommendation to buy or sell anything.

**Where can I see each caller's full record?**

On the three MCAFax Market Calls ranking pages: Day Trading, Options and Long-Term. Each links to the original posts.
