Very little options activity in those two names which means wide bid-ask spreads. A no-no for options trading. You want BA tight and open interest.
I have several accounts, but in my short vega options account I'd like a bit more short delta. But I prefer to get my short deltas on cheaper instruments for sure. But there are folks who short at x amount of dollars in risk. You may only short 20 shares, but these two look sick.
Speaking of shorts, just shorted /6C small. I suck at shorting. Provided I get my way, I'll take off pretty quick and let the other half ride. Or at least that is the plan right now.
/PA did not develop just yet.

UCO....overbought and touching BB125 on a day when OPEC meets for some more trickery/fibs, how convenient.
USD/CAD....oversold, look for a bounce.

You knew the market would move higher. I used to do iron condors on the SPX and liquid nasdaq stocks like AMZN and GOOG. I'm not doing that anymore. The upside always gets breached.
