Day Trading the Small Cap Surge With Options
Season 1
Episode 15
Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Small caps are crushing large caps this month, with the Russell 2000 up 3.6% in five days alone while the S&P 500 lags. Lucas and Luna break down the options strategy that exploits this divergence: selling put credit spreads on IWM, targeting the 2,900 strike for July expiration. They walk through the trade mechanics, risk management, and why high implied volatility on the Russell makes it a seller's market. Plus, a look at how the Strait of Hormuz closure is distorting crude correlations and what that means for energy names in your portfolio. If you trade small caps or options, this episode has a concrete setup you can evaluate tonight.
