VOLATILITY VOICEMAIL

#Options #QOTW: $TSLA open interest continues to be dominated by far #OTM "Mystery Puts." The lion\'s share of the OI is at the 100 strike and below. There are many reasons for this. But it leads to a simple question - do you think \\xa0$TSLA be below $100 by Jan expiration?

• - Yes
• - No

Question from Vivic 3 - Now that spikes is live what is the status of the other vol newcomers that have appeared on your show like Voldex and Volx?

Question from Benson H -\\xa0Is there any clear winner for earnings season right now for a volatility trader? Is it short vol or long vol that\\u2019s winning the day right now?
