I wiped the tiredness out of my eye and peered at the clock.
Midnight again.
Another day staring at the charts so long it felt like my brain was going to bleed.
What kept me captivated was not the data, but rather the various paths it could take.
Depending on the direction things went in the coming days to weeks, the opportunities could be monstrous.
I found myself lost in another world, imagining different scenarios that could lead to price movements and how it would play out on the charts. It’s no wonder I lost track of time.
Now for those of you familiar with the lore - I’m not much of a “shape rotator”, a slang term used to describe those gifted in STEM,
I’m just a janitor on the internet after all - my talents put me more on the “wordcel” side of the spectrum, which means I’m better at writing than I am computer science.
But when it comes to markets I have a foot in both worlds, out of necessity.
There’s no other way to succeed in trading unless you can identify and act on big opportunities before they arise, and to do so requires at least a small amount of “shape rotating” ability.
Today let’s dive into the world of ETH options to see what edge rotating shapes can provide.

The shape I’ve spent so much time rotating is seen below.
It’s ETH’s volatility surface chart.
