Comments: Adding to my natural gas position here with a 1.00 short put out in May (I already have a 1.00 short put out in April), with IVR/IV still through the roof here at 76/115.

Note
For those not used to looking at short puts: this is the opposite of a long put, so it's neutral to bullish assumption. I make money if /NG goes up, sideways, or to a certain extent even down, as long as price stays above 1.00 running into expiry.Trade closed manually
Out here for a .017 debit. $150 profit. Not quite 50% max, but I don't want to anger the natty gas gods ... .
