Hmmmm….

They said it will cease of Feb 20th. So perhaps you can trade it until then?

  I don’t have any details. Not really time to research it now…just a quick text from a friend of mine

  Yes it’s trading now and will stop on Feb 20. I wonder if SVXY will get some additional buying once XIV shuts down, just as a function of less supply of inverse short-term VIX futures ETPs. Of course this would be once the shock of this whole thing wears off and people aren’t as spooked about it.

    I’m wondering how early we’ll be assigned our way-ITM puts.

      I would think some of these deep ITM puts will be assigned months early.

        I trade them in an IRA so cash secured. I’m sure we’ll get assigned early. Happens often for a lot less. I plan to hold the stock and see what shakes out of this free (not really free) fall.

        Just checked my 4 accounts I have some of these in, surprised none have been assigned yet. They are all showing delta 100 except the 70 strike, it still has a tiny bit of time value and not full delta.
