My FF is slight dip, ES 4250 to 4300 high. could be another % or two higher, then start of even more  volatile period with a BOG REVERSAL into End of August and into September

NET SHORT now, relatively small position, will build as rally continues

I couldn' t agree more....

 

BTW I had 4100-4200 spx, but probably it will be surpassed a bit

TLT UP 2... will close at least 10 CALLS

[dTraderB]

It is my HIGH RISK TRADE so I paid a bit more for OCT expiry -- basically the market will be down sometime between now and October expiry and TESLA will be down from insanely high levels when the general market is down

TLT traded above 120 today, first time since late APRIL! 

 

I closed CALLS throughout the day as I cut my position to 26. All of these are green.... will close more if it trades above 122 but most likely it will pullback to about 116 or lower -- and I will ADD MORE CALLS. 

 

My FF remains the same as it was in the first post in this thread: drift down below ES 4100 and then rebound to about ES 4250/4300 and then drop below ES 3800

 

As we all know, August can be quite challenging... slow at times, low range, low volatility but I expect AUGUST 2022 to be a far more volatile and actively traded.

 

I will hold my 1 ES & NQ HEDGE LONG while continuing to be net short, mainly  SPY, QQQ, TESLA PUTS, UVXY CALLS
