need VXX to drop a bit more to add new CALLS with LIMIT ORDER lower than current price

 

 

closing ES HEDGE LONG with minimum 30 points profit, will keep an existing NQ daytrade LONG until ES hedge  is reopened lower later

 

 

Not a great week, but the end of a profitable March & Q1 2021. April started with a loss

Continuing to add on these upticks overnight and now my average short is at 4031.  Biggest short I've had in over a year but this is way overdone with sentiment at extremes, technicalls are extremely overbought daily and hourly, so far above its weekly moving average its almost unfathomable, S&P500 currently valued at over 41, etc etc etc!  Just ridiculous!  biden = volatility is still in play just been delayed a few days!

Adding more going bigger now, average short 4039!  Only going to sell if we remain higher.  Interestingly as were now 7.5 days to expiration were starting to see premium decay happen, 4100 calls now down on the day even though were up!!

I MIGHT DO THE SAME!
$460 PROFIT TOTAL on Tuesday & Wednesday!

Might take tomorrow off unless we trend. I'm getting bored of this range. Have a good evening!

I have also done my "massive trade" on volatility .... but so far volatility has not gone up.

(Reuters) - A massive trade in the U.S. options market on Thursday appears to be betting that the calm enveloping U.S. stocks in recent weeks will give way to a big rise in volatility over the next three months.

This has been a long week lol but not really!  Did get my 4100's though and now average short at 4055.  Think I will sit on this and tempting to hold longer than just for a small profit.  Market has been in blow off mode and I'm expecting this coming expiration week will be quite volatile as were right near my cycle numbers for the upside so moving higher from here should be a struggle anyhow.  Gonna be a fun week!!
