[freshy]

filled CVOL as a hedge today.. Markets very Uncertain

[ParaBellum]

This seems low for the amount of volatility swirling around lately. VIX is back up over 20.

Can't trade this with Fidelity has anybody been able to grab shares somewhere else

[Wildbilly]

Howdy damn, I'm gettin' outta here

with at least part of my left cheek.

[Wildbilly]

I bought in too high this time myself,

even tho' I'm in the money I think I'll hold on into Oct. to see things play out a little more since we also have short exposure to the S & P as well as rolling VIX futures daily. A nice down day on Thurs. would give some good momentum into Oct. Bounces in the S & P will give me plenty of angst in the meantime due to the volumes and spreads, but CVOL has the highest beta of any other volatility ETP as well, sooooooo...

CVOL was up 91% in Aug. which I missed every bit of somehow.

[ParaBellum]

Quite a run here over the last month or so. Bought in way too high around this time last year but had been averaging down. Put a sell order in at $0.90 today. Think I'll get out and wait for a pullback when Bullard or some other Fed mouthpiece inevitably sends stocks back north with hints of additional QE.

Markets either going up or down this week lol,

Goldman: The Options Market Says the S&P 500 Is Poised for a Major Move this Week - Bloomberg Business

Strap in!

Options markets are pricing in a big swing for the S&P 500 this week, according to Goldman Sachs.
Just don't ask which direction the move will be in.

Goldman Equity Derivatives Strategist Krag "Buzz" Gregory observes that the S&P 500 straddle -- a trade that profits if the market goes at least a certain magnitude either up or down -- is pricing in a gain or loss of 2.4 percent this week, based on options set to expire on Friday. As such, the S&P 500, which closed at 1,931 on Friday, would have to fall below 1,885 or rise above 1,978 this week for options traders to make a positive return on the straddle trade.

Traders will have plenty of new information to digest during a particularly busy stretch for U.S. data. The top-tier releases are back-loaded to the end of the week, with the ISM Manufacturing index and Non-Farm Payrolls reports for September due out on Thursday and Friday, respectively. The former is expected to sink to 50.6, its lowest level since May 2013, while the latter is forecast to show that 197,000 net new jobs were added over the course of the month.

But even in light of the jam-packed calendar, the expected oscillation is significantly larger than normal.
"While the straddle price is down from a local high of 4.7 percent in August, the expected move of +/- 2.4 percent is 1.7 times its median level 1 week prior to payroll releases over the last year," wrote the strategist.

Gregory also notes that the spot level of the VIX index, which measures the implied volatility of the S&P 500 over the next thirty days, indicates that "volatility is searching for a new home." At 23.6, the spot level of VIX is between 18, a level Goldman thinks is consistent with where the economy is in the business cycle, and 26, which constitutes recession-level volatility.

And as for the structure of the VIX futures curve, its flatness -- with a range of less than 1 point for all contracts between October 2015 and April 2016 -- suggests "extreme indecision," according to Gregory.

Bloomberg
"While we wish the VIX a speedy recovery, in our view an indecisive VIX is justifiable," wrote the strategist. "The market is searching for improvement in U.S. and global economic data."

[mgland]

I'm down here but not too concerned. Doesn't seem to be much gravity in the markets.

[Wildbilly]

I rec,'d mine within an hour

of my first buy. I guess my broker was eager to show me the infinite ways I could get screwed here, plus how Citi has their arses covered.

I knew most of that before hand...and still bought!

[mgland]

not yet.

[Wildbilly]

Did you get the Citi prospectus from your broker?

[Pennybuster]

this looks interesting. if volume starts here i'll jump in for a few.



have a happy memorial day weekend.

[mgland]

Added this.

[kerooney]

Good volume today, look to hold this thru end of summer

[phishtrick]

In got a few again@ .67

[phishtrick]

Ty, been missing a bunch by just little.

[ParaBellum]

You couldn't have timed that any better.

[phishtrick]

Think I will give this pony a whirl.

[NathanH]

I dont even think retail can short this kind of etf and I wouldnt want to anyway. I just said that as a joke because this has gone from 25 to .81 in a short time.

[ParaBellum]

I'm in at an average of about $0.825....I'll see green before you see zero.

[NathanH]

U can now buy some at .81

[ParaBellum]

You're right, shorting this with the market at all-time highs is a better strategy.

[NathanH]

Meh

[ParaBellum]

I couldn't agree more. $0.85 entry point is a bargain. Any decent market correction should push this back to $1.50 easily.

[kerooney]

Decent volume on this today, holding for the market correction

[NathanH]

May as well short this to zero

[CharlieMozart]

I'm surprised more people aren't talking this up. QE is a euphemism for inflation. Oh wait... no multiplier, so it's not inflation. Watch that belief pop with the bubble.
