RUT/Jasu – Those are the 20% drops, not the bottoms, so RUT is simply way below the 20% correction I thought the others would be able to hold.

MT/Coulter – Tarrifs and Global slowdown are not good for MT at all so this is not their year and next year is not likely to be their year but $20 is $20Bn I can SHOW YOU THE MONEY!!!

Profitability

So, really, I don't give a flying F what other people think, MT is a BUYBUYBUY down here for sure.  In the LTP, we rolled down on 10/19 to 40 2021 $20 calls with 10 short 2020 $30 puts and, of course, we already bought back short calls we had sold along the way so about even on the overall trade and not in a hurry to cover.

As a new trade on MT, I would go with:

  • Sell 10 MT 2021 $20 puts for $4 ($4,000)
  • Buy 25 MT 2021 $20 calls for $5 ($12,500)
  • Sell 25 MT 2021 $27 calls for $2.60 ($6,500) 

That's net $2,000 on the $17,500 spread so $15,000 (750%) worth of upside at $27+ makes for a nice little trade.
