Fading the Rally: Scott Bauer’s Iron Condor on DELL

Dell (DELL) posted a great report with strong guidance and Scott Bauer’s instinct was to fade the move higher.

He joined Schwab Network to walk through the iron condor he is selling to take advantage of the post-earnings volatility and shared his read on the daily sector rotation that is making this market so difficult to navigate right now.

Scott covers:

  • Why a great DELL report still has him fading the move rather than chasing it
  • The wide iron condor range he structured and the credit he walked away with
  • His take on the daily sector rotation and why picking one sector right now is a tough game
  • What the ADP miss this could mean for Friday’s jobs number
