VOLATILITY VOICEMAIL
- Comment from J3Dingle – I saw on Bloomberg that one of the 20+ Democrats running for president owes UVXY in size in his portfolio. That alone should be a disqualifying factor.
- Question from T Lima – Heard you guys hitting on 1×2 put spreads in vix. What about VXX? There are lots of juicy puts 1x2s lining up for small outlays and maybe even credits. I?m looking at Dec 28-23 1×2 that I can do for around $.45-$.65. There are similar spreads lining up across the term structure. Also – Do you have a preference to longer term or shorter term when trading 1×2 put spreads in these products?
