exited old carry over positions.,..
new position taken :
5500 put and 5600 call strangle long at 140...
sl at 100.. tgt 250...
this is very delta neutral and with increase in vix and 4 days of pause which could be accumulation or distribution, we are supposed to move on. But looks like we are going to grind here for some time....
Worst possible scenario would be open at 5550 and then a salsa dance of 30 points step up and 40 points step down.
strangle bot at 140....closed at 138... expecting a cut of 10 points today if worst case scenario plays out.
Good news is.... more it stagnates further the distance it can go... down side tgt is no longer 5355-5310..it can shoot to 5177-4900. Like wise up side tgt can be 5910-5950. Only worry factor is time. But MAY is a month that can go crazy and i have my fingers crossed....
mean time will have to job the positions for 10-12 points every day, if i plan to carry it till next week....
