Short Lived Bears 4-22-16

Bears could not hold their gains to the end. RUT held up all day long and up 1%. VIX crushed to 14.21. It appears bulls may be determined to retest the all time high or even to make a new high before end of May.

I had 7 filled orders. Rolled RUT 1140 call to 2 weeks out with a put. Closed RUT 1145 in the last hour as it held up pretty well and closed ITM. I didn't bargain too much and luckily got filled the last one.  The SPY 210 was closed at the open.

Risk profile is about the same. The available funds will decrease again as the hedging positions expiring.
