March 21st is one of the four most important days on the calendar for every options trader… Today, we’re seeing that perfect storm where options, futures, and index derivatives all expire simultaneously. And on the heels of these expirations is one danger that all seasoned traders fear – pin risk. It’s that nerve-wracking moment when stock prices hover dangerously close to strike prices, leaving option holders in limbo. Will your options be exercised? Will you face unexpected assignment? I’ve talked extensively about how pin risk moves markets – and how it sets up the market’s expectations for each successive financial quarter. After today, we’ll have a clear benchmark for the inherent risk affecting the options market in the coming months. Billions in notional value hang in the proverbial balance this week… And understanding how to navigate these expirations could be the difference between capturing profits and facing devastating overnight exposure. Join me today for Masters in Trading LIVE at 11 AM EST, where I’ll take a deep dive into how pin risk affects the broader options market and the top strategies options traders use to manage it. 
 | Chart of the Day: Copper's Parabolic Rise | 
As we discussed yesterday — copper is going parabolic, up 25% over the past three months from $4 to $5 per pound. Big money noticed too, with $3.2 million in call buying on Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) just ahead of the Fed meeting. That kind of unusual options activity doesn’t happen by accident — it means serious players are betting on more upside. My top pick to capitalize on copper's surge? TECK Resources (TECK) — it’s got great copper exposure without being overpriced. We’re targeting the 45 calls with 57 days to expiration, giving this trade time to develop. With volatility easing and copper names catching fire, this setup just makes sense. If you missed the breakdown yesterday, click here to watch the full session and get up to speed.
