This morning, shortly after the open, I sold a DEC 53/60 in KRE. It appeared that the was elevated (around 27%) and had a of almost 30. Later in the day, however, those numbers dropped significantly to a 23% IV and a 16 rank. I think something must have been off in the morning numbers. Oh well... Honestly, I needed some new trades anyways. This trade is small, and at least gives me some much needed decay.
If the gets tested, that will hopefully come with opportunities in the broader market. If the market continues to drive higher I'm hoping to make money off of further volatility contraction and the passage of time. Targeting around $0.52 which is about 50% of total max profit. Considering how low volatility is, though, I might decide to take it off for even less than that.
