I think our posts have crossed in the post!
Out of interest, as a day trade, what price were you looking for on the bonds, in that having missed it, you felt you had to use options? The DS cutting YL was pretty clear and, within only a matter of two or three ticks, you should have got a fill going north.
The first target would surely have been YH, the second DBYH and after that the pivotal high at 104^01. That was getting on for 40 ticks, which has to be a great day trade on the bonds. After that, if you were really pushing your luck, the little double top in the stall at 104^12 would have had you out. (I attach a gif for those who like to see how the market moved)
What did you actually achieve with the options?
