[] [The daily rundown of everything happening at Option Pit.]( [( MARK-et Open Hey OP Crew, Griff here with the Chart of the Day. As expected, we’ve had 2 down days in a row with SPX down 2% from the high. Today the option flow produced positive deltas for the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (Ticker: IWM) and the S&P 500, and small negative deltas for the Invesco QQQ Trust (Ticker: QQQ). This may signal that the selling is a continuation from Friday’s OpEx, and there may not be much further to go on the downside. One stock that may already be a buy now is C3, AI inc. (Ticker: AI). After triggering an RSI reversal on the new high, AI breached its $40 Put Wall today and bounced off its high volume point of control: [ The AI hype settled down. With a Morningstar fair-value price of $55, the 39-40 area is a good location to get long. Consider a JUL21 41.5/44.5 call spread for under a $1 with a stop on a close below 37.5. Let’s Go!

The VIX closed the day at 13.89 on Tuesday after a long weekend; when we adjust for the weekend, this is down. How can this be? The S&P 500 has been down two days in a row. Isn't the VIX supposed to be up when the market is down? [Here’s why the VIX is behaving like this and what to do about it.]( - Mark Power Income: Triple Witching Challenges Bull Run As I laid out last week, the main significance of Jun16 OpEx was that SPY & SPX AM options, and then SPX e-mini futures, all expire at once. This removed a very large amount of positive gamma, which was providing volatility-killing liquidity to the bull market. The mood of the market changed on Friday after an early SPX run higher was snuffed by put buyers for most of the day: [ The put buying continued yesterday, and we could see further downside this week. [Today, we’ll dissect the Tuesday option flow and take a look at a trade that may make sense this week.](- Griff Profits In Pumps: An 80% Win Rate!!

The [Option Pit Glossary]( is here to help. Today's phrase is: Leverage: Essentially getting more bang for your buck. For instance, buying one call option that controls 100 shares of the underlying, for less than it would cost to buy 100 shares outright.
