#SPX0dte With some volatility before the open and a spike in $VIX I avoided being aggressive on a wide condor and then missed some fills after the open. I’ll wait until after JOLT at 10am to look for a trade.

Fortunately waited until long after the open this time. I was modeling condors premarket, all of which would have been stopped out in the first 10 minutes. After yesterday’s bounce and overnight rise, I doubt we’ll have a drop low enough to threaten this. But I won’t leave it unattended.
