TRADE IDEA: UVXY JUNE 17TH 10/13 SHORT PUT VERTICAL
Since I have a "virtual gaggle" of VXX trades on, I'm turning my attention to UVXY setups (in spite of its warts) to go long volatility here.
Metrics:
Probability of Profit: 64%
Max Profit: $120/contract
Max Loss/Buying Power Effect: $180/contract
Notes: The mid price for this setup is $115, but bid/ask is wide in this instrument, so I'd putz with a fill above mid, particularly since price may back into the setup from where it's currently at (17.03). Look to take the money and run at 50% max profit ($60/contract) should you get filled.

Comment:
Filled for a $120. Could have gone for more, but got filled fairly immediately at open.

Closed for a small profit on this pop.
