I’m no fan of this market – there’s no questioning that. 

Essentially in this market, you can believe that it is going up another 1,000 points on SPX or believe that it is about to experience its first +10% correction in years, but the bottom line is, neither is happening or on the verge of happening right now. 

Instead the market is stuck in this ho-hum pattern, that has seen no major rallies this year, and the sell-offs that do occur, quickly get bought up by the dip buyers. As a result we get stuck in a range that traders are desperate to see it breakout or break down and out of. 

Below I’ve provided a list of desirable short setups. The VIX is back in the 12’s and we’ve seen repeatedly over the past year where quick sell-offs tend to start right here in the 12-range. If that happens again, you’ll want to at least be found nibbling on 1-2 of the short setups that I have provided you with. 

Here’s the list of short setups:
