Host Mark Longo and guest Uncle Mike Tosaw discuss a variety of topics in the world of futures options. The main discussion focuses on precious metals, specifically silver and gold, where Uncle Mike rebuts recent criticisms suggesting that trading these is unwise. The episode also delves into the movers and shakers report featuring commodities, such as Kansas City wheat and class III milk futures, to highlight significant market changes. The conversation extends to a detailed look at equity indices, where the recent sell-off and market volatility are scrutinized, and then moves on to interest rates, particularly the 10-year note. The episode ends with listener questions, prominently addressing strategies like leveraging longer-term collars in precious metals trading. 01:22 Welcome to This Week in Futures Options 02:30 Showtime: Latest Futures Options Trading Activity 04:19 Movers and Shakers Report 09:43 Volatility Breakdown 13:11 Debate on Silver: Hopes and Dreams or Good Trades? 25:37 Gold's Meteoric Rise and Market Reactions 26:14 Gold Options Activity and Market Sentiment 27:00 Unusual Flat Skew in Gold Options 29:37 Gold Puts and Market Movements 32:12 Equities Market Turbulence 36:17 NASDAQ's Volatility and Trading Activity 41:35 Interest Rates and the 10-Year Note 47:38 Futures Options Feedback and Q&A
