Today we look at the sell off that broke the S&P channel, and how we played it short from both the XLF and BEN puts side, and the SPY puts side that were put on later that day. I added some GLD september puts in anticipation for a further move to the downside. Because not only the channel but a major support line was breached the next move could be another dump of stocks, there is however a potential for another small rise in stocks to form a more complete H&S formation on the 60 minute charts. It seems like there is a relatively clear path towards the 961 level on the S&P which is the neckline of the major inverse H&S that everyone has seen in the past. I also look at Gold (GLD), XLF, and BEN.
