April 18th, 2019 Happy Easter! Weekly Recap and Look to Next Week Last week we said be careful this week and I think that played out like we expected. We got a move but had down closes in SPY 4 out of 5 days. We eventually to a support level and SPY bounced off of […]

Weekly Recap and Look to Next Week. Well, we were somewhat correct in our analysis of this week from last week when we said if you forced us to make a decision last Friday we would buy. Despite basically a week on consolidation we got a gap up today which would have made that a […]

April 5th, 2019 Weekly Recap and Look to Next Week We said last week that we thought the trend line would hold and SPY would be tradable to the upside. We were right about the support holding but the gap up on Monday kind of put us in no man’s land from a trading standpoint. […]

COST – 10/8/18 – Iron Condor
COST – 10/8/18 – Iron Condor I liked the price action on COST and was able to get a pretty good premium (or at least I initially though so) with Implied Volatility at 34.04 so I decided to go with an Iron Condor. On 10/8 with COST trading at 223.27 I sold the 11/16 $240 […]
FXE – 10/3/18 – Broken Wing Iron Condor
FXE – 10/3/18 – Broken Wing Iron Condor When I can find opportunities I like to trade FXE because it trends well. Finding premium can be a challenge, however. On 10/3 with FXE trading at $110.26 and Implied Volatility at 54.75 I was able to get into a Broken Wind Iron Condor with no upside […]
