Comment:
Held overnight Calls into Friday open profit. Didnt sell all day, was waiting for 43 print but never happened. Still a good return but wasted my day waiting on a big nothing.
Next week VIX could get crazy. Going to not trade it and let the market rear its ugly head then take opposite direction once its hand is played.
Gltu!
Comment:
Jump on the open never held and equities went green eod.
It's nothing major but oscillation remains week on the 4hr and 1D.

Snagged some 5/15 puts, watching for a strong dip back to 37. Anything at/below 35 is a good sign to hold puts into next week.
