Spike + 3 Push Wedge Channel? SPY G+1% within $0.08, overnight short?

Monitor the spread price until Dec 20.–Dec 20 178+Sep 19 181 put = 10.33-10.46

Can SPY rebound to 181.40 by Dec 16?

Do I need to roll over short 176 puts?

Dec 20 , 176 put delta  = –0.18, SPY = 180.9

Option A: Roll over now with calendar spread +Dec13-Dec20 176, credit 0.42, net of comm $0.40.

Option B:  Let Dec 13 176 expire worthless.  Short Dec 20 176 on Dec 16.   Dec 20 176 put is 0.49.  As long as it doesn’t go down by 0.09, Option B is better than Option A.  $0.09 decrease on options price means $0.50 increase on SPY’s price.  Will SPY be higher than 181.4 by Dec 16?

Hedge 179 on big gap up day

No matter 179 gap filled or not,  0.55 credit funded 0.43 put debit spread. with a longer term bearish bias.   The same type of strategy was used on Nov 20 to play the 178.5 gap and made $63.
