Dear Bottarelli Research Member,

There’s no way to sugar coat this, so I’ll just say it. The bounce that I was expecting in Southern Copper (PCU – NYSE) is simply not happening. As a result, our PCU December 130 Calls (PCU LF) have officially been stopped out at $3.10.

PCU

As you can see from the chart, PCU attempted to call the 50-day moving average a support level last week, but that support was short-lived and the shares have continued to move sharply lower. In fact, the entire metals sector is getting clobbered today, which is curious as talks of a recession grows stronger. Be that as it may, it’s time to officially close off PCU and move on.

On a more positive note, shares of InterContinental Exchange (ICE – NYSE) have continued to move lower, and this has pushed the ICE November 170 Puts (IHH WN) that we entered last week for $6.70 up to a high of $9.00. Let’s go ahead and lock in this gain now!

ICE

PLAY: Sell your ICE November 170 Puts (IHH WN) at or above $8.50, good for the day.

I’ll look for new trading opportunities as the markets continue to short out their next move, but until then:

Lock and load!

Sincerely,

Bryan Bottarelli
