IWM $291.51 Last.

Massive 5 DTE downside put vertical put in place. IWM’s charts are on the verge of taking a turn of the worse. The 50 SMA is holding for now but if it gives way, there’s most “air” down to the next SMA down, the 100.

From the SPYs bearside idea from earlier this week: “…HOWEVER, there’s other developments afoot that could be concerning and result in the market going “off script” with a sudden (and untimely for many) rug pull. We will place those charts in this post as reminders but with the $DXY, TNX & USD/JPY all moving up to near potentially concerning levels, adding this bearsider now seems to be prudent just in case all is not well.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trigger: $289.88, flat line.

Strategy 1: Consider the IWM 31July 290.00 puts for $3.95 projected at trigger level today.

Strategy 2: Consider the IWM 21Aug. 290.00-270.00 put spread for $4.90 projected at trigger level today. Uncappable.

Targets: 288.33, 286.80, 284.93, 282.13, 279.28, 277.88, 276.56 (100 SMA currently), 274.51, 272.54, 276.79
