I think it's possible we could see 385/390 on this run BUT if the Fed Pivot theory doesn't catch some validation from JPow or others, then it's going to go away as fast as it came, then we're just left with a technical bounce and a DXY that's going to moonshot.

Scenario 3 for Friday.

Only thing I see messing up my exit tomorrow: BOE rate hike (DXY may pull back), dip buyers.

JPow in Friday is a non-event.

Good job looking beyond just the rate hike - the Fed Funds Rate projection is what matters since it's forward looking.

I think Scenario 1 is most likely.  He can't stop or slow down.  He was yelling at all of us from JHole.

Couldn't resist that end of day momentum, despite both our previews.

I'm seeing the bull case headed into FOMC, but not massive run like CPI - just cautious optimism.  You said it right - the bears actually want that.

Awesome CPI preview.  Hadn't seen anybody pull all that data together so nicely.  Keep doing this for us clowns.

I think the scenario could be one you didn't note: Under expectations on the jobs add but wages up.

I'm looking for full Scenario 1 though.

Friday recap: JPow let his inner hawk soar and scared the shit out of the market.  I was setup perfectly with my options strangle, but tinkered with it about 20 min before the main event.  That was very costly.  I would have made ~5x what I did, had I done...nothing.

Thursday recap: Neither scenario was in play.  I exited my overnight puts for a tiny profit at the open.  Then caught a ride on a call in the afternoon.  🥱

Wednesday recap: 🏆 "Scenario 2: We open under 427, puts to 424.  I already have mine, so I’d sell - happily."  I did just that.

The spark to downside could be at 2pm if Fed minutes show different stance than what Powell communicated at conference.

Friday recap: Scenario 2 was the only one in play.  If I would have just done that, I would have been green for the day and upset I didn't make more.  Instead, I just kept buying puts. Wrong day for that (so far).  Gotta own it when you are dumb, so...

P&L: -$5,000 😔

🏆 " Scenario 1: If we gap to 415/416 on good CPI data (cool), give it a few minutes to dance at the open, then calls for a few points, max 420.  Don’t try to flip over to puts - dangerous game"

I like the few week outlook; but de-risking for major data releases.  This should do well for you.

I'm going to continue to close out daily.

I really like how your previews are taking shape/organized lately.

WMT theory - it's not a bad theory, really.  I hadn't considered that.  The timing is....spot on for you theory though (20 days early?) 🤔

I agree that it's a boxing match.  My scenarios are very tight because of this.  It'll get more volatile for the week after Tuesday AH.  Watch that VIX....

Your note about 397 and puts is opposite of my 397 and calls.  I think if we gap 397 you're going to get tech boys piling in for a strong close.

July 25 Recap: Scenario 1 played out well, it just took all day in the Chop Box to get it done. "If we open below 395, puts to 393/390.  Tough trade."  I was out on the first dip to 394 and done for the day.

P&L: +$920

If we get HGSR starting this week, then we're months away from the wheels coming completely off this market and going back to pre-COVID levels on SPY.

"If you are looking for a great week to take off to preserve your capital, this is the week. Don't get me wrong, I will be trading it everyday, but I am an addict. But, this is a great week to watch the market, not play the market." 

Great advice.

I still think we need a pullback before FOMC.  If we consolidate in 390/400 ahead of FOMC, earnings next week don't move market too much, I think we'll go big to the upside.  At least for a little while.

July 21 recap:  Scenario 1 was close, but not optimal. "If we open at/above 395, calls to 398/400 (max).  Too risky beyond that."  Dip after the open was a bit more than expected.

I think a big ass rally is coming at some point after FOMC.  We need to pull back first...but then..it's on.  Even though I'm a bear.

I agree with you that both puts and calls are at a bad risk/reward right now.

I think all action on Tuesday will be done in futures/premarket, then stuck in the chop box pending any meteorites like AAPL again.

Damn, I knew you were scared about the VIX, but didn't realize you were sweating.
