Intra-Day Update: Survivor
UPDATE 11:56am EDT: The market is fighting for its survival right now. In the last hour all index futures have been gyrating around their respective pivot levels:
YM: 8260
NQ: 1237
ES: 876
The Yen is going strong, which is putting additional pressure on the market. I just saw a breach on the YM and grabbed some YM puts – so far so good. I will post an update once I get out. Might be a chance to trade it back up. I’m sticking mostly with index options as the bid/ask spreads are insane on equity options. No surprise there as the VIX just hit a whopping 73.54 – insane!
Keep it clean & limit your exposure.
UPDATE 12:29pm EDT: I took profit on my DIA puts. The market is fighting a battle and we’re seeing huge swings in each direction. If you are able to daytrade this is your chance to scalp easy profits.
