I am pretty darn sure this is an anomaly, but look at what stockcharts is showing for an early read on the OEX P/C.

It's just a tad extreme. swoon.gif

What also struck me was the timing of prior big sudden extremes, both red & green, -- gonna study this one more closely. Hate to show my ignorance, but how is this chart different than other oex p/c charts I see more often?

I am going to sell a bit in a couple days, June 1 or 2, only to recycle lower again around June 15-16.

 

To buy 2x and 3x long calls June 15 I'll need to sell something first. I'm not sure on gold but I think it is 

 

ok from here, in the 401k I have orders in to add to positions on May 31 with a little held back to do a 2nd

 

day if lower again. I am looking for more capital to send into the broke-rage to be ready for June 15, I think it is

 

that good, it is that good in the daily cycles, absolute rip.
