Consensus

Primary thesis: High-volatility pin between $340-$352 near-term, with a structural bearish drift evidenced by falling max pain. Favor selling rich near-term premium (calendars, put spreads) or overlaying covered calls on existing stock. Invalidation of the pin is a close below $340. Top plays: 1) Reverse calendar for vol traders, 2) 4/17 put spread for defined-risk bearish bias, 3) Covered call for shareholders. Limited coverage: 4/4 persona reports available.

Where traders usually go next
