DJIA/DOW JONES short idea (m30/H1)Dow Jones INDEX:DJY0 formed a bearish Wolfe wave.
Being supported by RSI divergence at m15-m30 timeframe and significant stopping volume at point 5, it appears to be a good sell entry point.
Crossing line 2-4 supported by increased volume should confirm the move South.

86% probability trade on Costco (Ratio Spread)
After last earnings Costco had a 14% down move. If we take into consideration last year, we have a CVPOC at around $150 Price, and in the shorter term the VPOC is around $167 (2017). That means that those prices are the ones that have traded the most and considered fair for the stock.
With an IV Rank at 67 we can sell some premium, so given the down move I sold a 3:1 Ratio spread for $1.66.
This gives us a max profit of $665 at the $150 level and if it stays above $155 price we would be making $166 at expiration.
Our probabilities of profit are very high at 86%
The trade:
Sell (3) AUG18 155 PUT
Buy (1) AUG18 150 PUT
Earnings trade on Tesla (Custom)Made a custom Earnings trade on TSLA. Originally was going to make a bearish trade, but since today we had a over 2% negative move down, I decided to add the ratio spread to the downside.
Sold the 330/340 Call spread for $1.40
and the (1)302.5/(2)295 Put ratio spread for $.20
Total credit $160
Max win is $905 at 295 price
Max loss to the upside is $840
Naked to the downside below $286
74% probability trade on QQQ (Synthetic Call Ratio)With equities still rallying I can redeploy another trade on the Q's. If it continues to go higher it will get to our max profit zone, if it starts to drop we don't have any risk and still make money. Worst case scenario is that we continue this nonstop rally without mercy then we would be basically short from 136.50 which would be at the all times high.
The trade: Synthetic Call Ratio spread on QQQ for $.50 credit per contract.
Bought one 134 Call for every two 135 Call for a 2:1 Ratio spread with no risk to the downside and our max win at 135. Then bought the 141 Call to reduce the capital requirement, essentially making this a synthetic Call ratio spread.
By buying the delta .05 call we reduce our capital requirements for the trade from around $3k to $450 per contract and reduce our credit received by only $5 per contract. Pretty good trade off in my mind.
Our break even is at $136.5 giving us a 74% chance we make money on this trade.
Double Ratio on Natural Gas (NGAS)The last 50 days, we got a nice move of over 50% in Natural Gas over 50%. I just closed a covered Strangle for a nice profit and its now time to redeploy, since I think the price is going to slow down.
Price is over extended above the 20EMA and I expect a correction, so I just made one of my favorite trades. The double Ratio. I bought the 4.25 Call and sold two of the 4.45Calls and bought the 3.45 Put and sold the 3.25 Put.
This trade has a 74% chance to make money and my target is a profit of $800. Since I am using $2,100 to have the trade on, I am expecting a Return of 38% in 56 days (Not bad).
We make money as long as price stays in the green zone between the prices of 2.969 - 4.73 and since We have our Moving average above our break even in the downside we would need a pretty strong move down to get tested.
