Volume in VIX puts was more than 2x that of calls on Friday.

That's one of the highest turnovers in 15 years. It has typically spiked at times of extreme anxiety. https://t.co/UOvODNiQLC

Preliminary CBOE Put/Call Volume Ratio on Nov. 4 at 2PM ET is officially "pretty far up there". https://t.co/LMrXBR6YL1

Index put-to-call ration is at its highest level since October 2021!

This level of US household enthusiasm for stocks usually doesn't end well!

On most prior occasions when consumers have been this enthusiastic about stocks (since 80s), the market has taken a major tumble. See chart

Examples:

Jan 2018 -> not a good year for stocks

I'd expect VIX to go higher at this juncture as there are likely frequent whipsaws as the election going thru the process ......................

I am either net flat or net small short. Not closing any SPY & QQQ CALLS.
Will start a new SQQQ CALL position.

Will add just 1 SMCI PUT, HOLDING 3 CALLS. Does not have far to fall with stock near daily high at 26.

Nq sell limit 20350

Good reason to just sit and watch for a bit, market is highly unlikely to see a massive sell off occur no matter what happens
