I don't have a good handle on whats next for the equity markets. Tech and Semis are likely near finished with their summer rally.

I think small caps are the next for rotation, as they haven't moved much since February. A few of my LT holdings have already started to move (UPST, PSFE today) but overall russell 2000 has yet to breakout.

I have TLT Sept calls that got whacked on the jobs report today, and VIX Oct calls. That's likely the only trading positions I'll have for a while.

I also think Crypto is fixing to move heavily in the next month. I have a few calls on miners for Jan 2022.

Last position is a beat up SLV call position for Jan 2022. Going to hold in case I'm wrong, but I think precious metals are going lower in the ST.

Same. I’ve been cash heavy for a while and just sitting in the same 1% range for a couple weeks. Too many divergent signals so my only ‘big’ positions are long LQD, long USO, and short KRE. Everything else is half size or smaller. I was bigger in GLD but cut that down since the price action is so bad.

Watching cryptos and started building back positions this week. Also would like a better entry in CPER and some European ETFs.

I’ve been traveling the last four weeks straight so the process has been hard to execute. Spending some time this weekend reviewing a lot of stuff.

Friday was complicated. So, I am going to break it down. Nasdaq 100 Futures (NQ) traded to the 9837 level, 32.75 points short of it's 50% HWB short. It then proceeded to sell off like nobody's business to 9846.50, 31.5 points higher than the projected objective for the HWB short. So, if you followed me on the channel, we were positioned for a nice rally at the end of the day. Markets have no memory on Friday afternoon. So, I think we are going up eventually and rally hard.

Is anyone actually making any new trades today or just participating in the sell-off by taking money off the table/sitting tight?

MSFT, JWN, INTC, OXY/XOM, PEP, CHGG, ADBE are some of the stocks I'm closely watching/considering getting in on.

Option 1: sell puts which protects from further downside but locks my money/caps upside in case we do see recovery?

Option 2: buy shares which doesn't cap my upside in case recovery starts next 2 weeks but risk further downside?

Option 3: ???

Three observations from my market analysis this week:
1) Still work to do in repairing damaged trends with only energy and financials up over the last month
2) Technology has issues with rates, valuations, and supply chains for chips, so this could be heavy on the indexes
3) Setup for the week is concerning with OPEX, lots of data releases, and almost no IVOL premium - lots of event risk and limited hedging in place
