Sqqq, but point taken - this thread is for brave futures traders who swing 10x the size I do (mininum). One day I'll man up. Not having overnight surprises would be very nice!

I don't buy short etfs, normally sell puts on tqqq on a weekly basis, say $17 floor. If the puts are assigned, i sell calls to the upside until exit.

That is awesome. Selling options is like printing cash! Maybe one day I will have the nerve, but tail events claim lives in that business.

This is the kind of early pullback that I like. Strong potential here for a big uptrend day.

Zowie! What difference from the "Waiting days"!
Done and going out to exercise: 8 RT for + 10

BTW: Way to much risk taken for +10, so overall not a good R:R: today. May come back after Powell stops.

Just for grins, watching the speak, on MUTE, and the charts at the same time.
