VOLATILITY VOICEMAIL
- #Options #QOTW: $TSLA open interest continues to be dominated by far #OTM “Mystery Puts.” The lion’s share of the OI is at the 100 strike and below. There are many reasons for this. But it leads to a simple question – do you think ?$TSLA be below $100 by Jan expiration?
- Question from Vivic 3 – Now that spikes is live what is the status of the other vol newcomers that have appeared on your show like Voldex and Volx?
- Question from Benson H –?Is there any clear winner for earnings season right now for a volatility trader? Is it short vol or long vol that?s winning the day right now?
