    No. It flattend half my delta. I am short gamma (a lot of it at this point).

    I'm flat gamma in goog. Long jan gamma short dec gamma. I've been wrong however and been losing money (albeit small) on this as the jan has come in a lot.

    Edit: thought you were talk about aapl. I had dec jan in goog for a while. Like all of this month.

  2. Short 3% of book in ES Dec from 13.25 (initial req); hedge on global deltas.

  3. Out of AAPL fly at 47.00 (35 mid) and out of ES (scratch) as the offending position is gone.

  4. Had to go long with the AAPL Dec21 490/520/550 call fly from 11.00 (10.80 mid). 5%.

    It's too juicy to avoid it!

    I was looking at 500 550 600 jan callflys but decided against.

  6. It is!

    Short ES from 14.00 again now that I added a few deltas. 3% per initial req.

  8. It's going to hurt a little this morning, but it's a good risk for a wide ATM fly.

  10. Incredible. AAPL rallies to 595 off the low of 505 and retraces the entire move in one month. We're under $505 in Europe.
