Risk off

#SPX1dte Bought to close $SPX Aug 16th 4385/4365 put spreads for .30. Condors sold for 1.10 this morning. Stop was still 17 points below the day’s low thus far, but steering clear of the Fed minutes release coming in 45 minutes.

SPX same day

#SPX1dte Sold to Open $SPX Aug 16th 4365/4385-4480/4500 condors for 1.10, deltas -.06 +.06, IV 23.2%

FOMC minutes released today at 2pm ET, so I don’t expect a lot of decay before then.
