A little insurance for the weekend? Middle East could erupt over the next days.

Well I sold as soon as the debt ceiling appeared to be a non-issue (again).

Hope no-one is holding too many of these ? As discussed plenty of times before, the decay is phenomenal and makes this instrument (bar any major shocks) pointless to hold.

Its nearly at a buying opportunity unless the s and p 500 still got enough steam to go to 52 weeks high

Was going to avoid, but chose to purchase a few of these yesterday - debt ceiling shenanigans coming up again too - Nov. 17th ?

Hello, hello.....message sinking in?

Not convinced by any of these 3 to 4 day rallies... We've had a few over the last year now as well.

Could be market turning re Hezbollah statement later

It's a slow motion ww3 unravelling, keep an eye on the Turks and Armenia next...

Almost sold this AM.....almost. Did reduce some FTSE 100 exposure last week.

[waterloo01] 19/10/2023 16:19

Seems to be trouble trading. Not getting live prices?

[waterloo01] 18/10/2023 17:20

Vix back over 19. 25 by Friday?

[waterloo01] 13/10/2023 17:15

VIX over 19. Could be a big jump over the weekend IMO

[waterloo01] 12/10/2023 18:43

Suspect a very difficult weekend of headlines regarding Israel. Interesting turn in vix today

[waterloo01] 09/10/2023 16:54

Market is remarkably complacent

[zcaprd7] 08/10/2023 08:08

Another war kicks off...

[waterloo01] 07/10/2023 12:33

Black swan event

[waterloo01] 03/10/2023 19:09

sods law. I'm still in but the long side is getting crushed. Decent cash holding and getting 5%+ so in no rush to deploy.

Vix over 20

[mister md] 03/10/2023 15:42

Just don't take it too soon like me, lol.

[zcaprd7] 03/10/2023 14:12

Probably not the best way to play this instrument? My advice is monitor the real vix, and don't be scared to take a profit!

[rivet] 03/10/2023 13:53

Could be worth holding for the whole of the month. I'll pop back on the 31st.

[mister md] 02/10/2023 08:08

Small profit banked - shame the UK market was closed as US dropped late on Friday ...

[mister md] 29/9/2023 21:23

Let's see what happens next re: government shutdown / debt ceiling

[mister md] 29/9/2023 15:57

in for a quickie
