After they put out their sales disaster we were pretty bearish and suggested 2 trades, the July 140/150/160 put fly for 95 cents which is now $1.05 and the August 100/115ps for $1.45 which is now $2.40, (both including costs)… IT is still not looking healthy and with a weak looking S&P I can see […]
