$UVXY
I have an oversized short position, mostly covered with 16, 15 and 18.5 puts over the next 3 weeks. I am debating whether I should sell the last covered puts at 15 or 16 for this week. Maybe wait until tomorrow to see if the downtrend continues. The last few months have shown sharp reversals the following day after a strong move one day. Will history repeat?
