Updating the MGC (Monday Great Calls)

Here's the update going into the PPI data tomorrow and Friday's CPI.
  1. Closed out the UL vs TY spread at 120.21 and 117.205. This trade netted 1007 ticks ($31.468.75). In its place we've intiated a very basic NOB. Re-initiating, with the US 63 @ 116.27 and sold the TY -100 @ 117.205
  2. Buy premium, the VIX is too low. (See SPU section #6)
  3. Hold on Euro FX positions
  4. Look to sell the AUD over .9050
  5. Currently Long this U vs U spread and looking to sell 31s
  6. Purchase the 1095 SPX straddle for 12.40. Look to hedge below 1085 and above 1115
  7. Neutral. Flat CL after getting to the expected target.
 My gut says that the PPI & CPI data (Bloomberg Calendar) will be a complete duds and the overall market will slowly drift towards unchanged for the week.
