Market is in an interesting spot here. We keep finding support at that SPY 436 level.

At this point, I recommend watching the SPY. If it goes, it will pull down everything with it. IWM/QQQ can't have much more downside without SPX.

Can you buy a call / put straddle? Or whatever you might call that?

In my math, if you

buy a Call 7/30 $13 at .27, sell at 1.23 if it hits $13, you gain $96.
buy a Put 7/30 $9 at .14, sell at .6 if it hits $9, you gain 46

obviously you wont hit both, but if you hit one it covers the other cost and you still eek out a gain.

Is the only risk that it doesn't move and stays where it is? I obviously don't play advanced options strategies.
yes.

to profit you need to exceed the total premium of the call and the put, so you are banking on an outsized move.

FUTU sure has an ugly chart...BUT...

It is right at support from March & May sell off.

Maybe set an alert.

BIG volume pocket down to 50 if this level doesn't hold
Looks like it is going to lose it at the moment but man I was hopeful it would bounce here for a trade.

3 day volume has been pretty steep.

Edit: Quick rough chart. Left it off but first time it has seen -3ATR all year. Slightly below actually.

I have been wanting to get into FUTU. I am setting alerts, I hope it hits $50. It will print money once the Chinese stocks bounce back.

possible today's low in, pending press conference. Ticks hovering around +500.

SPY 438.33 is the level to watch for a confirmed low.

I did this before the last pullback on IWM and profited both ways. (mostly because I was lucky on the timing). If it dumps and the put spread pays, you can then buy back the sell side of the call spread (if you're bullish at that point) and run the naked call to profit.

This may be optimistic thinking, but WWR is probably due for at least a little boost in the near future. It's only closed below -2 ATR a few times over the past ~year. It's fighting with -2 ATR right now (3.75)

Looking at seeling 430/425 Put vert expiring Friday. Thought on a pop tomorrow to capture around 30%?

From the boring value investor desk, XRX popped on earnings today (+4.66% as of writing), so I sold some slightly ITM calls against it and lowered my cost basis by 8.3%.

If I get called away next month, my gain would still be +60.1%

Looking forward to responses on this. I've been playing with put credit spreads and was looking at this play.

CDC and school boards can **** off. Abbot will never bring back the mask mandate right now.

IWM.. we went low and then corrected back up a little. Should be going lower again either tomorrow or the next day. Gonna be lots of this whipsaw it seems. Once I hit about 50% ROI on the $200 puts I'm going to take some profits.

I mean, there's already billions of masks laying around. If I were to start wearing masks again, I wouldn't have to buy any for years.

I don't think I have the guts to make earnings trades. Really feels like more of a guess than usual.

I don't own a mask at the moment, but might have jury duty in a federal court later this week. Since it is federal and the building is fed, they can require a mask even in the state of Texas. Yay me. so jury duty, commie style.
