#OptionsExpiration #Monthlys #Mar17 – it was almost all volatility plays again this week.
$GDX and $NUGT bounced this week on a strong move in GOLD after the Fed announcement, but not enough to take me out of my recently acquired stock positions.
Some nice big gains on some $DUST Puts helped too.
The relentless move up in $SVXY is killing me since I’m net short a lot of long term calls and I’m not making enough on the Puts to offset the climb.
