A demand zone is a price area where big institutional buying previously overwhelmed selling pressure, causing a sharp, impulsive move away from that level.
When this level is identified, traders can wait for the price to return to it.
There is a chance that the big institutions have unfilled orders they want to buy.
Other traders who missed the first impulsive move may also be waiting there for a second opportunity.
This creates a high probability for price bouncing from that area, making it an attractive entry point for options strategies.
Some people call this a support zone.
Either way, this can be a place of a good buying opportunity or the initiation of a bullish option trade.
It is important to note that this is not a line in the chart.
This is a price range.
Hence, we call it a zone.
This zone is typically defined by the consolidation candles that preceded a strong bullish impulse.
This consolidation is where big money is accumulating shares.
The sharper and cleaner the departure from the zone, the more likely it is to act as strong support when the price returns.
A slow, grinding departure suggests weaker institutional conviction and generally produces a less reliable zone.
From an options perspective, demand zones are useful because they give you a defined area to anchor risk management decisions around.
If the price closes cleanly below the zone, you have a clear invalidation point.
This makes it far easier to decide when to close a losing trade rather than holding indefinitely and hoping for recovery.

The hardest part of trading an iron condor isn't picking the strikes or getting the entry right. It's knowing when to get out. Most traders agonise over the entry and barely think about the exit โ and that's where perfectly good trades turn into losers.
In this video, you'll learn two simple rules that take the most emotional decision in the trade and turn it into a mechanical one: the 50% profit rule and the 21 DTE rule.

Most income investors spend years (sometimes decades) patiently building a dividend portfolio.
They reinvest, accumulate shares, and wait.
And at the end of it, theyโre earning maybe 3โ4% per year.
What if thereโs a way to target that same income, or significantly more, with less capital tied up and without waiting years to build a position?
Thatโs exactly what weโre covering in this article.
By the end, youโll understand why I use selling puts as my primary income strategy instead of chasing dividends.
