This Week in Futures Options 51: Crude Volatility Strikes Back

This week in the CME hot-seat we have special guest Dan Passarelli, Market Taker Mentoring. Topics this week include: WTI What's the word on the street for futures traders? Aggressive return to old skew? Fed week came and went Treasuries Eurodollars Futures Options Feedback/Weekend Flash Poll: These are crazy times for all markets from commodities to equities and volatility. Which crazy level will we hit first? VIX Below 9 SPX Above 2500 WTI Below 40 AAPL Above $160 Listener questions: What do you want to know? Question from Paul - Mark, What is your take on the timing of an investment in silver right now? I just got out of the market and I am thinking of investing in silver - either the traditional options or an ETF that tracks physical bullion like SLV or SIVR. I am leaning towards SIVR for its lower expense ratio. Question from Lawrence T. - You guys (I think it was Nick) talked about rent a while back. You should make that into a regular segment or report. Maybe who is paying the rent report? Question from Charles Allenby - Can I not just do most of this stuff in my stock portfolio using USO, GLD and other ETFs? Do I really need to open a futures account?
