#Earnings Sold to open $DATA double diagonal for .55. Max gain if stock doesn’t move, but a fairly wide range of profit, as high as 20% up or down, depending on how much IV drops tomorrow.
Sold May 6th 51 put and 51 call
Bought May 13th 49 put and 52 call
I had to enter each leg separately as a combo order would not fill. Haven’t tried these before so just doing a 1-lot and see how it all works tomorrow. Max loss $245
$UVXY STO 5/13/16 15.0 PUTS @.51
$UVXY STO 5/13/16 20.0 CALLS @.72

Since I don’t have an edge on what the employment number is going to do tomorrow and ultimately what that will do to the Dollar and to Gold/Gold Miners. I took advantage of this mornings strength to make the following trades to give myself more room to the downside just in case the dollar spikes higher.
BTC May 6 $90 puts
BTC May 6 $85 puts
BTC May 13 $80 put
STO 2 May 20 $60/$160 strangles
STO 2 May 27 $55/$170 strangles
All in, took in a $0.50 credit

#SPXcampaign In Pre-market, bought to close May 6th 2025/2000 put spreads for .70. Sold for 3.10 on April 15th as a roll. Closed to avoid any risk into Friday and jobs report.
