Even if you don’t trade options, understanding options flow gives you a front-row seat to market sentiment. Because as Kochuba put it: “The options market is a prediction market.” 📊 Source: Benzinga Fintech Day & Awards 2025 #OptionsTrading #StockMarket #Finance #Benzinga #0DTE #Investing #PredictionMarket #BrentKochuba #MatCashman #TradeStation 🖥️ Try Benzinga Pro FREE with a 14 day trial: ben...
