I am hoping for a little runup in this jewel and hopefully lower implied volatility. I like to buy slightly in the money options if they are affordable. I have to say that 25's for a couple of points seem tempting but the delta is not worth it especially if this gets back to 50 (max pain). If they rally this turkey to 50, I will be all over it. Perhaps Poet or toscano has an idea on which options to buy based on delta. Here is a chart I like as a short right now. When the 13DMA crosses the 50 - go short. I will not wait, Will do a starter position tomorrow. This is exactly the kind of chart I am looking for. DOW stock near the top with a clear S/L, about to break down, with cheap puts. Find me some of these. BA is another. clearstation.com M
