Hedging with short DVN

2021年7月30日

When the market reached a (new) All Time High earlier today I wanted to get some short Delta in my positions. I learned my lesson during the 'recent unpleasantness' bottom of 7/19 that being all net long puts one at risk of volatility in a portfolio... even if the positions themselves individually remain strong and profitable.

This morning's volatility setup a good short entry on DVN that by looking at futures this evening should hedge against tomorrow's potential downside.

Earnings are close so I may need to de-risk next week before.
