UBER Weekly Options Play

Updated
Description
UBER began its bear market after the break in the major trendline July. It has now broken through major support established from the ascending triangle that was built in MAR - NOV timeframe of 20' and was also tested in SEP of 21'.

The break through 38 is the signal for the entry, and also the stop loss for the position.
Using long puts to leave the downside open.
The level of the VIX right now is my primary concern in opening long option positions. I consider all of my positions risky, and manage risk accordingly.
