TLT +.41% / While 20Yr @ High Yield of Month 2.06%Today's 20 Year Auction was sloppy and dangerous for Wood Panel FanBoys. We released the Mastif's who chased Eddie Munster off our land. Alexandra put a few 10 Gauge Triple Otts in Steve's BUttocks for good measure. Hopefully, this will suffice. IF not - it's on to more persuasive actions. Alex adores the thought. ________________________________________________________________ www.treasury.gov Bonds are seeing further FED Props. Jit's Nasty out there for the 007s.

TLT still looks like a shortLooks like TLT can go down to $130 or potentially a bit lower, I would consider being a buyer at those levels, this also aligns up nicely with the price volume profile, general support area and the long term trend.Shortby Yogigolf112

Opening (Margin): TLT January 21st 2 x 160/149 Backratio Spread... for a 20.34 debit. Comments: Buying 2 x the 82 delta strike and selling the at-the-money 49 delta strike for a setup with a net delta of -115, so this is going to move a lot like short stock. Going with the January expiry to give it more time to work out if it needs it, but will look to take profit at 110% of what I put the trade on for.Shortby NaughtyPines1

TLT, Trade and trend ranges [02NOV2021]So, in some of the previous plan's descriptions (link below) I have been saying about shorting TLT, and I thought today it would be nice to share a standalone TLT idea, please let me know how it goes. Signal is extreme bearish, short term has an equal weights on upside to downside, and long term has a -3% downside. I will be adding puts to my core short positions today if I get TLT to be 147.5 PS. Each box span a day, and the code gives short term and long term trends as shown. the trend is shown with the color of the box. The range is calculated on a daily basis. If you want similar ranges and trends on your ticker, feel free to contact me, I will add them to my list and provide them when the signal is interesting (for free of course) Redd Shortby reddan2560

TLT - Beyond the Flamingo's Velvet RopesIn the Shadow of the Flamingo's Cheetah cordon, Casino Royale's Buy-In has begun. A Global Game of Chance? No. Baccarat, amongst the Participants, is simply a matter of Bank / Player. The Bank has a 2.5% edge. Wealthy Participants are enjoying the "Vesper" - an elixir of extraordinary mixology - Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Fruit and Quinine - Ms. Kina, can be toxic if copious quantities are ingested. _______________________________________ Insiders began pacing Out-Sized Put Bets on 007. We have our next setup for TLT and are engaging it with a large SELL into the weak retracement, which as indicated would fill those overhead Gaps. Never run to the Baccarat Table, walk, saunter, swagger, swill a Kina in rhythm to stride. Our Sells are neatly stacked within our several Racks, to be placed and pay the House Vig. _______________________________________ Looking beyond the Velvet ropes - We are sellers again of Tilt-Lose-Tilt.

Opening: TLT 2 x December 17th 154/147 Put Backspread Ratio... for a 12.48 debit. Comments: Here, taking a short-term directional shot in treasuries on strength by buying 2 x the 75 delta puts in the December expiry and selling a 50 delta at-the-money put, yielding a -100.79 dynamic short delta position that will have the "feel" of being short a one lot in TLT from 147.76. Will start to look to take profit at 110% of what I paid to put the trade on for.Shortby NaughtyPines2

Trade Idea (TLT): Shorting 20+ Year Paper Via Ratio BackspreadA setup to take advantage of a potential rising interest rate environment without knowing exactly when rate hikes will occur. Typically, this is set up by buying two of the back month 75 deltas and selling the front month 50 delta, such that you create a spread or diagonal with a net delta metric of around 100 (+100 if a bullish assumption spread or digaonal; -100 if bearish). Here, I would buy the June 75 delta 163's, and sell the December at-the-money 144, resulting in a net delta of -101.65. With a buy-in of 40.81 at the mid ($4081), it isn't particularly cheap, but certainly cheaper than shorting 100 delta of TLT shares outright and with multiple opportunities to reduce cost basis by rolling out the short put aspect if a move isn't immediately forthcoming. From a trade management standpoint I either (a) look to roll out the short put aspect to reduce cost basis further if the long put vertical aspect (i.e., one of the long put contracts + the short put aspect) of the setup doesn't converge on max; (b) look to take profit on the long put vertical aspect as soon as it converges on max and allow the remaining long put contract to either "ride" or cap it off by selling a short put against, creating a "new" long put diagonal. Variations: A long-dated, static long put vertical with lower net delta, specifically targeting 136: TLT June 17th 136/155 Long Put Vertical (Buying the 155, Selling the 136) Buying Power Effect: 10.78 ($1078) Break Even: 144.22 vs. 144.13 (Friday's Close) Delta: -33.62 Max Profit: 8.22 ($822)Shortby NaughtyPinesUpdated 111

TLT - Opprotunity Approaching once againTLT is aimless, wandering the desert which is Bonds. ZN has made new Lows for 2021 and continues to squat over the 130 Level. We believe it will fail as 10 Year Yields begin to complete their Consolidation and cross the 1.645 Level - indicating a move back to the 2021 Highs. We will be entering a SELL on Shares only. IV is not tempting enough at present as the Bond Bid has been absent - today's 8AM EST resolution will provide far more information for the larger trade here. BUlls are eyeing the large Gaps overhead, believing they are next. We're not convinced they are correct, the 172s are a which Implies Extreme Negative Returns.

My forecast for the 10 yr to see 1.62 . was seen I took profits and told traders to exit now .We now have a clear wave structure in TLT for a wave abc down for wave B low . this could be why I have the sp 500 ready to crash into a mini panic into its cycle low due oct 18th . BUT for now I would only be on the long side of TLT . I am now long a 50% at 143 and will add on a buy stop at 145.10 25% .
