Overall market sentiment
=====
The opinions within the group are presenting a divided situation, and trader sentiment is complex, as the sudden price crash has caught many off guard. Although some members still maintain a bullish stance, others are facing negative returns and the dilemma of bullish options positions, reflecting the severe volatility characteristics of the market.
Options Trading Pain - Call Options Hit Hard
=====
• Several traders report that call options have fallen, with positions "becoming worthless again" after an unexpected market downturn.
• Traders express frustration over negative returns, yet still maintain a bullish belief.
• The volatility environment is described as stable, with traders maintaining a neutral attitude towards volatility, but preferring the current price level over the previous range.
