Took a bunch of trades today:

  • 6/30 (42DTE) 4005P/4000P SPX for $0.65 - because expecting market to go down into, and past June opex.
  • 9/20 (124DTE) 20C/23C VIX for $1.11 - as with the other VIX positions, expecting turbulence at some point. Was trying to get for cheaper but didn’t want to miss any weekend fun, so half of what I would normally get.
  • 5/26 4295C/4300C SPX for $0.35 - in case I am wrong and market continues to melt up. Very, very low probability of this happening, so very small position, but the returns will make up for it if. Actually meant to put order for $0.25 but fat fingered …
  • 5/26 49P/48P/47P SCHW put butterfly for $0.05 - just for kicks. Lots of options were played on this, ton of it will expire, and so it should move somewhere. Expecting lower. Commission will be large, but throwaway position and will ignore unless it moves enough…
