\"spx-\"<\/p>\n

Market’s up 4.5% in a 5 day period, that doesn’t happen often and it means we are overbought here.<\/p>\n

I expect sideways action so we want to look at bear call spreads instead of a put buy strategy.<\/p>\n

Here’s the trade:<\/p>\n

SEll to open SPX Oct 2020\/2025 Bear Call Spread @0.80<\/p>\n

Add to the trade at 1.20 and 1.70<\/p>\n

All out at 0.10<\/p>\n

The bid\/ask spreads are stupid wide so make sure you use limit and not market orders.<\/p>\n

Update 10\/7\/15: Exiting second round at 0.80. Will re-add 2nd tier at 1.40 and 3rd tier at 2.00<\/p>\n
