Not much to say here. USD falling, rates falling, vola falling, IV Premiums falling, and indexes rising.

Don’t chase, take profits when needed, but some cheap protection.

What’s your cost basis? Or options?

HUT killing it today

Better than me. I have 400 shares of HUT at $6.1 cost basis. I just sold $10CCs for .8 earlier.

Tough for me to open positions this week. BABA short puts closed out nicely but I don’t see anything else until we get some more red spikes.

Will have full buying power after tmrw.

Bought ROKU calls today for a swing play

Lol talk about terrible timing. I’m going to see what next week brings, I’m still not convinced this is going down

I can't imagine that MM would let markets fall on Sept 3rd again, that would be TOO obvious. Unless the market puts in a -3% day only to catch people short thinking the correction is here

Haha! I’d settle for a 2% dip

Is the volume typically this low before a long wkend?

Not sure but it was very noticeable today.

I just reduced net exposure by taking profits on some winners and buying a small put position on QQQ. After a two week run, very little upside movement on low volume, with a few oversold signals on sector funds means it’s time to get some cash ready.

I have offers from both United Health Group and Atlassian for a Senior Financial Analyst position. Similar Comp (Atlassian slightly higher due to stock options). Coming from another healthcare company as a SFA, does anyone have experience at either company? In the long term, does Atlassian look better on a resume/work experience due to the Tech/Software space? Seems like their culture is great, but a much higher work load due to the nature of the company. Thanks! Happy to answer DM's too
