I guess. Certainly understand that no one knows what the FOMC will do (other than probably Pelosi), but people have occasionally posted that "the market is now pricing in a ___% of a 100bp hike".

I made my losses back with SPX and TSLA calls. As I hit the sell button I let out a "What's up now *****es" loud enough for my dog to go where he hides while I watch Aggie football games on TV.

Thanks for posting that, I hadn't seen it. So with that in mind it seems likely IMO this elevated green volume is just shorts closing. This takes away the chance for a big short payout until PH3 results are released, so why hold on to short position in the meantime.

The CUNY investigation into Dr Wang is still ongoing I believe. His research is what Simufilam is based on, so there might still be some shorts holding out hope for this to go to $0.

I'm going to give a trade idea where it's pretty much impossible to lose money. Keep it on the board please. I'm not taking this because I can do better but for the ultra conservative types this is good.

Buy LABU at $8. Sell Jan 24 3C for $6. 12% guaranteed return with exceptionally low risk. You could also sell the 4P but I like the other side better.

How or where can you tell what the market is pricing in as far as 75bps v. 100bps?

The best way is to find the fintwit who uses the most uppercase, exclamation points, and emoji. That dude knows what's up. Even better if it's a female who alternates options trades with pics of her butt in tights. That's how you can tell she's good at ta

Am I analyzing this correct? Assuming 1 contract.

Buy at 100 LABU @ $8 = ($800)
Sell Jan 24 3C @$6 = $600
If called, Sell 100 LABU @$3 = $300 for a 12% return (~9.25% annualized)

If not called because it fell to the floor, breakeven price on the trade in Jan 2024 is $2.00 (excluding commissions). Below $2 is the only way you lose money on this trade on paper (but you still own the ETF)

Don't you just look at the WIRP function on bloomberg for a pretty good indication of the fed funds futures market sentiment? It isn't going to differ vastly from the equities market and what they have baked in.

You got it.

As 30k mentioned there can be slight variations of this if you'd want. (different exp date, different strike price)

Too much expectation of a 75 pt hike. Fed is going to bring the hammer with a 100 pt hike. I can feel it.

Remember that channel from this morn? Seems like it was support for a bounce a few min ago. Crazy how that works.

Sold all SPY calls expiring Wed into close and took the profit.

Only buy was Oct monthly VIX 28c into close.






Just to post how I work this VIX since there has been discussion on it.

I took off 25% of calls for 25% gain here. Oct monthly expiry so time on my side. I may take more off in this area and bank profits and either set a trail or let ride.

My job is to protect my capital, mitigate losses and take profits. That's how I approach "trading" SPY and VIX which at any given time I almost always have one or the other on long or short.

Even if you told me what the hike was, I still wouldn't know how the market would react. People today will say a 75pt hike will be bullish, but if market tanks, they will say it's bc fed was aggressive. If it's 100pt and market rallies, they will say the market is confident inflation is now under control.

Both of those narratives sound like ****. Nothing is priced in. Fed is gonna crush rampant speculation. Only way to do that is rate hikes. People can't be convinced otherwise. This is following a very typical/classic script.

That said, I'm not trading the Fed move tomorrow. Could rally, could tank and I'm not confident in the way anything moves. If it rallies, I'll look for a reversal in the mid to upper 390s. If it breaks below 378-380, I'll go short.

I'm puzzled as to what will happen and I'm not gonna burn capital guessing. Easier ways to make money.

I bet they stick with 75. But, they do need to stop the optimism somehow if they expect inflation to calm. I wouldn't be surprised if they do 75 and then come out with some sort of mid-cycle surprise rate hike between now and the end of the year. That will get more attention than 100 now.
