EEM trade ideas

EEM - DAILY CHART Hi, today we are going to talk about iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF and its current landscape. The emerging markets today can face an increase of volatility and perhaps pessimism as Trump's stated that will reinstate Steel and Aluminum tariffs for Brazil and Argentina since, in his perspective, both countries are devaluating their currencies to be "unfairly" competitive in the sale of agricultural goods, which is negative for U.S farmers. We must remember that since the beginning of the Trade War, China has stepped into the gas pedal in buying Brazilian agricultural goods, and the Brazilian currency has reached new record lows against the U.S dollar, which theoretically bases Trump's argument. This could be bad news for the market if imply a new Trade War front against these Latam countries, that doesn't have China firepower to sustain a tariff battle against the U.S. Trump's movement could be clearly interpreted as an endeavor to take these competitors of the road, to try to suffocate China's lifeline of agricultural goods, and maybe force them to become more friendly with the idea of expanding their spending on U.S agricultural goods.

I will be watching that...EM...4200MSCI Emerging Markets enjoying the fact that the only 2 tweets coming from Trump, wasn't his usual “great and unmatched wisdom”. For now, there is a "partial deal" between the US and China, which got all the bears running for some short covering. While the SPX is up 1.7%, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index is enjoying the news A LOT more, increasing 2% since yesterdays close. A break and close above the $42 mark, break a very strong resistance level; namely the top of a Descending Triangle. This could be very bullish for the #ETF. Next resistance level would then be $43.20, with a break and close above these levels suddenly bringing $45 as next target.

THE WEEK AHEAD: GDX, GDXJ, XOP, EEM, VIX/VIX DERIVATIVESEARNINGS No options highly liquid underlying earnings announcements this coming week. EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS Ordered by implied volatility rank, with GDX, GDXJ, and XOP providing the best rank/implied volatility metrics for premium selling (>50% rank/>35% implied): SLV (96/29) GLD (95/18) GDX (82/35) GDXJ (80/40) TLT (69/16) FXI (54/26) XOP (52/43) The 16 delta GDXJ Oct 18th 36/49 short strangle is paying 1.16 at the mid price (.58 at 50 max), the GDX Oct 18th 30 short straddle, 3.19 (.80 at 25 max), and the XOP Oct 18th 21 short straddle, 2.67 (.67 at 25 max). BROAD MARKET EEM (51/23) IWM (48/25) SPY (43/20) QQQ (35/25) EFA (22/17) Pictured here is an EEM 1 x 2 short strangle in the January cycle with the short put camped out at the 18 delta, the doubled up short calls at the 8's to accommodate skew. Paying 1.18 at the mid price (.59 at 50% max), it has break evens of 32.82/45.59 and delta/theta metrics of .97/1.56. Alternatively, the Jan 17th 39 short straddle is paying 4.32 (1.08 at 25 max). If EEM doesn't suit your fancy, the IWM Jan 17th 131/156 short strangle camped out around the 16 deltas is paying 2.16 at the mid price (1.08 at 50 max); the QQQ Dec 20th 16 delta 158/202 short strangle pays 4.05 (2.02 at 50 max); and the SPY March 20th 240/315, 7.39 (3.70 at 50 max).* VIX/VIX DERIVATIVES Continue to look to add small, bearish assumption plays in VIX/VIX derivatives on VIX prints of >20, with higher prints naturally being better. With the derivatives in particular, look to VIX levels as the guide for entries and not to the derivative itself (e.g., UVXY, VXX), since beta slippage and contango plays into these derivatives, making it more difficult to discern levels. The general plays remain: at-the-money VIX long put verticals or short call verticals paying at least one-third the width of the spread in credit (or, in the case of the debit spread, less than two-thirds the width of the spread in debit) and with UVXY and VXX, short call verticals with similar metrics.** * -- Why the different expiries? I've been generally running broad market plays through a gauntlet of at-the-money delta neutral short straddle pricing prior to deciding which expiry begins to be "worthwhile," looking for the short straddle to pay at least 10% of the stock price. If the ATM short straddle isn't paying that, it isn't worth putting on a short strangle in shorter duration for me. The downside is that longer-dated setups are slower to come in and therefore tie up buying power for longer. The upside: they're wider setups relative to current price, so less subject to shorter term whipsaw. ** -- As previously pointed out, there is assignment risk with UVXY and VXX, and I'd rather be short shares via assignment on a short call than long shares via assignment on a short put. VIX is cash settled with no assignment risk, so whether there is a short put aspect or short call aspect is of little import for a VIX play.
