I would keep it until at least above 1550 ES. Today might be that big squeeze day.

out of curiosity, how much blood are you looking for? We went from 954 on March 15 to 894-899 up and down in a month.

I was talking about the intra-day action. After a weak rebound (no gap up, no push up at the open) the resulting selloff should have been violent. Instead it was (so far...) a dud. Hence I am expecting a rebound here. What should have happened today was a major selloff, instead since these expectations were not met, an even stronger move in the other direction should materialize.

Now, we can either see a repeat of February: two strong down days then a squeeze from hell, and if this rebound keeps going that will be the expectation. Or we can see a breakdown of that pattern either on Friday or Monday with a heavy turn down.

No bloodbath as expect after a weak rebound so out of IWM puts and loaded up on VXX puts.

Maybe I'm wrong but you just might have sold the bottom. Time will tell.

It's entirely possible, but I'm sure there will be a retest sometime in the future. Maybe I'll add a few way OTM July calls here just for fun.
