Future is down over 220 points. I look at my account, I see I am long GLD and some way out of money naked calls on ADI and lots of dry powder for action for tomorrow. I smile and sip my tea.
It will depend how low it opens. I have ADI. MCD, TZA. GLD and SPY in my list now. Nothing else. Lets say SPY opens at 197, I will sell 189 weekly PUT with absolutely no stop. Not 5000 contracts. Only 4-5 contracts which should give me $500 for the week. Then sell my favorite 18 naked Call for MCD and ...... and then relax.What will you do with that powder? Buy or sell?

I will also sell covered call 113 for my GLD.
I agree. I see way out of the money puts. still can easily be wiped out. I have cash to be assigned the shares. That trade is in IRA account and is cash covered PUT. The strike price is 190.Let's just say that I sold SPY puts two Fridays ago, and I am glad I hedged it. Not time to relax because at Monday open, I would be wiped out.
