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)
