Ninety minutes before Thursday's close and the market is well off of its lows...for now. I want all option traders to be ready when this thing starts to fall apart, whether that be today, tomorrow, next week or after the Feb 1st FOMC meeting. We are going out to Mar 17th (58 days) option expiration to cover as much time as we can without giving up too much leverage. Trade details are below the charts. I'll post when necessary, as usual, but time may be of the essence when the wheels finally come off. I'm hoping to get in a volatility trade as well, but am saving that one for last.
