Volatility Box – September 12, 2019

Day Trading Options With the Volatility Box

Today was almost a picture perfect day for us, using the Volatility Box. 

We faded price action, almost across the board, when news of a potential interim trade war deal hit the tape. 

We’ve also had quite a few people ask us whether or not you can use the Volatility Box to trade options.

In tonight’s video, we show a setup in which you can use the Conservative Volatility Box to position yourself within the first 30 minutes of the market open, using options.  

Today, that setup presented itself in the /ZB futures, in which the TLT options went from $1.30/contract to $2.65/contract. 

We had a total of 11 trades, for a net P/L of +$5,905.
