I am going to use this two-point rally to reestablish my short position in the Treasury bond market.
By taking advantage of the monthly options expiration on Friday next week, we can clock a handy 10.49%, or $1,049 profit in only six trading days.
You can pay up to $1.85 and this still makes sense.
If you can't do options, stand aside - this is a one week options play.
This is when accelerated time decay kicks in big time.
We already have a long position in bonds via the November $127-$130 vertical bull call spread with which to hedge this new October put position.
Low risk, high return, I love it!

If you are uncertain about how to execute an options spread, please watch my training video How to Execute a Vertical Bear Put Spread.
The best execution can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you. The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep in-the-money spread trades can be enormous.
Don?t execute the legs individually or you will end up losing much of your profit. Spread pricing can be very volatile with only six days until expiration.
