Same O, Same O. 10-6-16

Another day of the same old play. Ups and downs within the range. Today's movement was first down then pushed up. Market is waiting for NFPR again for clues. Who knows how the trade will interpret it. Give the election factors and expected rate hike in Dec.

Made 3 trades today. Rolled 1 of 2 SPX 2160 call to 2180 next week to get some premiums with a put. I tried to roll my deep ITM RUT calls but no luck. I sold 2 SPY 205 ITM calls to offset my loss of the assigned 203 bear calls as part of my plan. A order of buy partial short shares was filled after 7pm when British Pound had a sudden 6% drop. It was believed as a program error or a fat finger again. Tried to sell TLT and YUM bull puts but didn't get filled.

Risk profile is about the same. Leverage dropped to 66 from 74 after the SPY short was closed. I will have to get more hedges tomorrow for next week.
