EARNINGS:
You can literally count the number of announcements next week on one had, and they aren't in options liquid underlyings.
EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS:
GLD (36/12)
SLV (30/19)
GDX (30/25)
TLT (29/11)
GDXJ (28/29)
EWZ (25/26)
First Expiry in Which At-The-Money Short Straddle Pays Greater than 10% of Share Price:
GLD: January '21
SLV: July
GDX: March
TLT: January '22
GDXJ: May
EWZ: June
Pictured here is an EWZ short strangle in the June expiry paying 1.43 (.71 at 50% max) with break evens wide of one standard deviation for that expiry and delta/theta of .05/1.16.
Of shorter duration, the GDX March 20th 26/33 short strangle is paying .78 (.39 at 50% max; not very compelling) with the shorts camped out around the 18's; the 29 short straddle, 3.00 (.75 at 25% max).
BROAD MARKET:
EEM (24/16)
IWM (11/16)
QQQ (10/16)
SPY (3/13)
First Expiry in Which At-The-Money Short Straddle Pays Greater than 10% of Share Price:
EEM: September
IWM: August
QQQ: September
SPY: September
The EEM September 18th 39/51 short strangle is paying 1.48 at the mid (.74 at 50% max). As before, I'm somewhat reluctant to go that far out in time to get paid, but have been putting on some longer-dated setups and managing them somewhat short of 50% max as I wait for shorter duration expiries to be more productive.
FUTURES:
/NG (43/48)
/GC (36/11)
/SI (30/25)
/6C (28/6)
/6B (25/8)
Natural gas remains frisky due to seasonality, but I was hoping for more of a seasonal bounce to pull on the short end of the stick; Mother Nature hasn't cooperated on that end of things, unfortunately.
