What You’ll Learn in Fredy Sarmiento’s Masterclass
This free masterclass brings the gamma exposure logic that institutions use on real trading floors directly to retail traders. Fredy Sarmiento opens with the problem most retail traders face: there is a lot of noise in the retail world about gamma levels, but very little real understanding of what those levels mean or why they hold. He walks through the volatility surface and why implied volatility matters more than realized volatility, introduces the Gaspard tool for live gamma exposure and alerts, and explains who can trade this strategy (futures traders on ES and NQ, options traders on SPX, SPY, QQQ, and NDX).
From there, Fredy teaches his complete three, four, and five star setup system for both short and long trades. The main strategy carries a 75% win rate, and his favorite setup, the five star long, runs over 80% probability of success. He covers how institutions build positioning into 0DTE options, why they are forced to liquidate before 4 p.m. expiry, and how longer-dated options flow from three days to three months out layers on top to form the highest conviction setups. The masterclass closes with the client-vs-market-maker mechanics behind SPX call positioning and the exact hedging behavior that forces gamma levels to hold.

About the Instructor,
Fredy Sarmiento
Fredy Sarmiento is a former institutional market maker who spent 12 years on a trading floor in the City of London at some of the largest banks and institutions in the world, with more than 20 years in professional trading overall. On the desk, the minimum trade on his platform was one million dollars, and he handled derivatives flows worth hundreds of millions, sometimes billions. His core message cuts against one of the biggest narratives in retail trading: institutions are not hunting retail stop losses. They are forced to hedge, and that hedging, especially in the options market, is what creates the flows that move price.
Today Fredy trades futures and futures prop firms using options flows and GEX levels, and has coached more than 500 traders around the world. In this masterclass, he distills what he learned inside the institutional world into eleven lessons on how to read gamma levels, trade the three, four, and five star setups, and understand the market maker mechanics underneath them.
