Something like sell 1 /mnq future and buy 2 /m2k futures would be my guess. The ratio would be to balance the trade out since they have different notional sizes. You can adjust the ratio to give more leverage on 1 side or the other to fit your bias. For less leverage you could do a similar thing wit...

It's not surprising the volume is up in the last 6 months. It was April/May this year that they phased in the new Tuesday and Thursday SPX expirations....

I would guess he is buying a week or 2 prior and exiting just before the announcement. Unfortunately I am gone from the house and won't be back until next weekend to look at the book. Might be something on the net as there are studies on this type of thing. I highly recommend him if you can handl...

It was today. I opened 175/139 on 9/19. I just closed the put side out a little bit ago and will decide if I want to enter a new one next week or not. Looked like it would probably pin 140 but I can spare 0.15 not to risk it and start over with fresh strikes....

Nice job with your UVXY. Green market day was welcome to get the pressure off the put side of the book. Of course there's still a couple days to go but I think my positions for this week's expiration are looking in good shape right now. Still riding ADBE. Looking for full capture on Friday....

I normally don't have to check in but once or twice a day. I don't want to overtrade a position. I would be tempted if I checked in more often. I went ahead and rolled 4 expiring put positions down and out but still for additional small credit. On Monday I'll probably reopen the call side for them a...

Today will be interesting. Did we get most of the move overnight or is there more blood? I don't know. For my short option positions set to expire today I'm waiting until the afternoon to make any adjustments. Have a handful of stuff that could go either way....

I meant the 30-45+ dte trades. That's a lifetime in the current market. Most everything is 1 or 2 weeks for me. right now. Same for my AAPL. Entered this morning and expires end of the month. For ADBE I entered puts on Friday at the opening bell and calls this morning. Figma tank was on Thursday....

I'm not trying to convince anyone to trade naked options. I'm going to leave that alone other than to say we view risk from different perspectives but I find them much easier to adjust than credit spreads. I trade both but usually only use speculative money if I am using credit spreads. I'm sorry...

You got the score half right...
