EWZ trade ideas

Brazil went down big, let's sell premium (Big lizard)After some negative news about bribery in the government the Brazil's ETF (EWZ) got killed at the open with a 18% down move. With the Implied volatility rank of the stock at the high's of the last 52 weeks(100%) it means that buying options is going to be expensive, in other words we are going to be selling overpriced options. Betting that this is an over reaction and wanting to take as much credit as possible, I decided to sold a big lizard (Straddle with no upside risk) to get a nice premium. The trade: 64 days to expiration Sold the 33 Calls Sold the 33 Puts Buy the 36.5 Calls (no upside risk) Collected 3.95 per contract Target price will be at 25%

OPENING: EWZ JULY 21ST 26/28/38.5/40.5 IRON CONDOR... for a .61 credit. With EWZ caving heftily here and implied volatility popping, I'm going back to the Brazilian well narrow and small, since I can foresee this having some volatility in it for a bit, in which case I may want to add to the position. Metrics: POP%: 63% Max Profit: $61/contract Max Loss/Buying Power Effect: $139/contract BE's: 27.39/39.11 Theta: .69 Delta: .7 Notes: I'll look to take this off at 50% max ... .

EEM/EWZ pairs trade (covered strangles)EWZ and the Emerging Markets ETF EEM have a strong correlation (Since EEM have 7.7% of brazil stocks). The correlation for the last year have been .92, and the last 30 days have drop to .40. Today we got a strong move on EWZ of -3.18% at the time of the trade and -.64% on EEM. By trading one to the upside and the other to the downside I will look to reduce risk on this trade until time has passed enough to take my profits. The trade is two Synthetic Covered Strangles EEM 38.5/40.5 Calls for $1.92 credit EWZ 38.5/35 Puts for $2.95 credit In total we got $4.87 credit (1 to 1 ratio) and will look to close at $2.00. I don't do a lot of these trades, but I find them very interesting so lets if in the next 30 days we can close for profits.
