Monday's Binary Options

Monday's binary options trades. The post will be updated throughout the day. Times are New York time.
  • S&P 500 (Nadex:US500) 11:22 a.m.: Short >2082 for a $79.75 debit with the symbol price at $2,084.73.
    • Exited 3:06 p.m. for a $95.50 credit, with the symbol price at $2,082.63 
    • Outcome:
      • The index declined by 0.1% over 3 hours 44 minutes, or a -236% annual rate.
      • The options produced a 16.5% yield on debit, for a +38,698% annual rate.
SPX at 3:37 p.m. New York time, one day 15-minute bars
The second bar from the opening bell wad a clear reversal signal in candlestick analysis. The better play would have been to go long from that point. Having gotten in at the beginning of a sideways pattern, I exited early reduce total time risk of the position, a decision that reduced by potential $20.25 profit per contract by $4.50.
