Quoting The Fool
Mar FOMC 3/20-21 - Mar opex 3/16 - what will equities do if the FOMC hikes? Will we get another spoos dump to 2,5xx...? Perhaps now the time to set a trap for that........
Hey mang... I'm done licking my wounds from the raping I took on my oil shorts.

Hows you feelin about owning WMT from 80? I grabbed a grip of Sept -2 80Puts/+1 95C/-1 105 C today for a decent credit at the close I figure the whole market should just continue on its merry bullish ways after the idiots who were responsible for the Vix debacle got hammered.

Ya man, I still am bullish on equities, but not as sarcastically bullish as 2016. Just because some jackwad millennials who have never seen a bear market decided to build some derivatives and blew themselves up doesn't stop the systemic uptrend we are in. The feds are still printing away, Yields are getting to a capitulatory point where the CBs could artificially keep them suppressed to sustain pro-growth admin policy, and we have a weak Dollar, which is great for everything


I think we are just seeing a rotation out of dividend stocks and into treasuries because of the "risk-free" yield in the short term and then we should keep on climbing. I see these pullbacks as the dip we have been waiting for

That being said I got a few of my BFFs on Exxon(Ill own it if it drops below 60 by September, if that happens, youll be look at a tribute account. I got some Pfizer too, and the bigs, caught SPY on the double bottom. I'm waiting for Walmart to sweep the recent lows and Ill put some on them too.

if SPY makes a stab at $278 in the last hour, but falls short by 15c or so, the $278's will crash and the $279's will retain and I could see a 60c net - the spread is worth 50c now....fun to play these when they are coming down to the wire in perfect shape....

SPY closed $277.91 and the diag was worth maybe 72c +/- at the close so I left a dime + on the table but it woulda been tuff to stay in the saddle them last minutes...
