I don't really trade last week. Positions making money and account is @ all-time highs. Small adjustments here and there but nothing major.
Sold few puts in QQQ and SPY to reduce short position. Bought TSLA ....
Overall, still remain short but the size of the short position is significantly lower than it was 2 weeks ago.
Surprisingly good markets for trading this summer. I did not expect that.

TSLA is definitely in play. Loading up.
Bought July 285/280/270 broken wing butterflies @ .50 credit. Cheap trade with exceptionally high probability of success. Did it in size

I am not positioned for crash. If it happens, I will be either unchanged or up/down 5%. The profits from short delta will be offset by losses from short premium.
Crashes are bad for business. Last time we crashed, bid/ask differential in SPY options (the most liquid stock in the world) was 1 dollar.
I'd prefer rally, sideways or drifting lower markets with volatility around 20.

also sold /6E 1.135 puts
А почему-бы вместо это не купить сам /6E ? Options on stock я понимаю. А вот options on futures ? Это для leverage on leverage или для чего ?

у меня так остается short delta, i.e. my assumption about the euro has not changed. All I am hoping to happen is for euro to go by about point lower (to get to my short strike). I am making money both on selling puts and selling euros. It is like covered calls but backwards
. Anyway if I am wrong at least I will. make money on puts (well, I will keep rolling futures and selling puts going forward if I am wrong).
