Federal Reserve chairman Janet Yellen blew this trade to pieces yesterday by indicating that there would only be two more quarter point rate hikes this year.

That has cut the knees out from under the dollar and sent the Japanese yen flying to a one year high.

I am therefore going to maintain discipline and stop out of the Currency Shares Japanese Yen Trust (FXY) April, 2016 $87-$90 in-the-money vertical bear put spread at a small loss.

Minimizing losses and hanging on to profits is the key to keeping your head above water in this incredible year.

You don?t want to go out-of-the-money on these deep-in-the-money vertical bear put debit spreads on pain of death.

If you have the ProShares Ultra Short Yen ETF (YCS) outright keep it. Markets should come back into line eventually.

I think we are at the tag ends of the recent unbelievable bout of yen strength.

The best execution for the options can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you.

The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep in-the-money spread trades can be enormous.
