Share only trades so far today. SPX option premium is too high to use.

I bought some XOM for a day trade. I want to be out at low of day if it loses that.

Anyone have any advice on swinging options 2-4 weeks out during events/speeches? I typically don't like holding anything during earnings/speeches and lost my butt doing it during one of the recent reports. I just don't know if it's the right move to dump trades always before or just hold them out.
Currently have calls in VIX I plan on holding but I have puts in IWM that expire Jan 20 that I can't decide on.
I'd just set stops on them and see, but also hopefully you got good entries. So if your IWM puts were bought recently near tops, you can hold. Just keep in mind too a Santa rally could ruin those or stop you out. BUT you have plenty of time with the Jan expiration.

I went ahead and took some and moved stops to even. Why lose on a trade with j pow coming.

Thinking I might play some puts for JPow, but small.

Put NFLX on your watchlists. It looks like it's about to go.
Jumped into these.

290 has broke!

Large gamma wall at 300 that could be a magnet.

Something odd going on with little 'ol UWMC. Huge volume spike this morning and over 20k 12/2 $4.50c bought.
call volume on that strike is now >32k.

Daily volume on the ticker is 727k. We're at 1.2M at 10:45a

Did the Lisa Cook lady jump the gun on JPow's bed ****ting or what happened? Was on a work call.

Pretty hawkish comments but it looks like the market is hanging in, just doesn't want to believe it.

Exited my SPY puts. May play a few calls now. This is purely guessing, but it seems JPow may have had his henchmen do the messaging this time.

Exited 50% of these on that little bounce for a modest gain. Going to hold the remainder at least through the JPow drama. EDIT at 12:16 - nevermind sold the rest. Good luck to you guys holding stuff.

It's amazing how the markets react during these speeches, it has to be algos keying on words.

fade the Fed! fade the opening move that is. I bought puts around 397, very small position.

didn't work today, stopped out. was looking to fade the first few rockets. Fed speak must be dovish AF today.

Thanks for posting this. I don't get to trade much, but when I saw your post I made a Model T buy. 396 calls for today at $1.47 and just unloaded at $3.30.

Glad you capitalized. I didn't play it.

Assuming you were looking at intraday? Intraday MT was 394.85 prior to the spike. SPY was bouncing back & forth right at it going into Powell's talk at 12:30.

There was nothing good in that speech or the macro economy.

Yeah I sat it out (sold calls, so bitter about that). However, no idea what was said that resulted in this.

Got out of my puts in IWM about a hour before the speech thankfully. I did however just get back in but expire in January so I'll hold for a bit.

This is a major short squeeze. Obviously I didn't catch most of this.
