Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought Bullish Stance XRT are retail discretionary companies and right now there seems to be alot of optimism.

A few back i posted charts of the retail sector to lead rally . We now have ended in what looks like a classic blow off top I am now moving into a PUT POSITION NOW TILL MARCH 2022 we should see a rather string move from free money to contraction just based on the new tax laws jan 1
Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought Market is returning to a Bullish / Ranging state With the Evergrande dip it seems we now have room for another bullish retracement XRT had no major reaction to Evergrade dip and is rising with the market and is now about Evergrande. Pricing at 0.50 seems decent (11% from strike) -80, 60, strike 85 XRT has the best contract...
With the bad news from BBBY the retail bubble finally seems like it's gonna pop. No more stimulus or unemployment supplement. It's been rangebound for a while now, but with today's drop A/D looks a bit different.... I think it's downhill from here, but I have no idea what the chart will look like so I'm just throwing an extended red arrow out there, lol.
This is Track 1, Trade 1 of the September trades. This trade generally follows the larger market bullish move as it seems like Retail is taking the Delta virus and inflation news on its stride. There will be price drops if those concerns surface again, but from what I've noticed, its all very short term. We also see retail hiring more aggressively and in the...
Re entered this trade as it seems like the market is stabilizing and did not continue it's drop. This drop was due to the inflation concerns and the increasing delta virus cases in US Sold 45 Puts @ 0.53 Strike 86 BP Block: 54K Max Gain: Est $2385 % Distance to Strike: 10.76%
AMEX:XRT broke the trendline and looks ready to break out into new highs.
I entered this XRT trade with a high BP of 59K because I wanted to reduce my exposure on VXX. I'm getting the feeling that the market is reaching a stage where the bullish steam is running out. Especially with rising Inflation concerns. VXX to me is dangerous because it is exposed to Tech stocks which are currently sky-high and a drop in tech could be pretty...
Retail sector is losing steam. WSB had their fun. Looks like it might be over (for now) reclaim 96.27 would be a buy signal
Retail sector driven by GDP (fiscally supported) and consumer spending support = a "short" on the inverse situations. So when the fat lady stops singing...you know what buttons to push 😂😂
I originally planned for XRT to take up 45% of my BP but some how my week earlier VXX trade's required BP suddenly increased and so for July XRT is back to around 30% BP So far it seems like the inflation worries have been quietened at least for the time being. I do feel it is a matter of time. This is why I need to reduce my exposure to VXX as it is very...
