Comments:
★ I placed a bearish trade because SPX gapped down at the Opening Bell and the intraday trend was clearly bearish
★ I went pretty far OTM because sometimes the markets will reverse after a morning selloff
★ I placed my bearish trade when the intraday stochastics were in the "overbought" region (see chart below)
