VIX FALLING WEDGE: Ready to Blast off?!?

2021年8月25日

Been accumulating September calls. Into 100 now, 17s, 18s. Falling Wedge. Trade at ur own risk, GLTA!

2021年8月25日

交易开始

Added Sep 22 $17 calls. These odd-weeky contracts have wide spreads, always try to enter at mid-spread, close a dime above bid using limits, never market orders.

2021年8月25日

交易开始

Added a few now holding 100 VIX Calls, September strikes. They got cheap, futures are crushed.

注释

These are not for the faint of heart; my drawdown over 2 days is 2K. A pop would be enormously gratifying, huge leverage. IF it fails, these get crushed.
