I have covered the Treasury short a day earlier than planned, because it is trading stronger than I expected compared to overnight price action. Also, this S&P looks like it is ready to roll over at any moment and I don't want to take a chance at getting caught short Treasuries when the S&P gets dumped. I still think we'll likely get a bit more of a selloff in Treasuries over the next couple of days, but the risk/reward is less favorable now. Plus, I am always nervous being short Treasuries, it's not an easy trade.
I have legged into a short crude oil position, this time looking for a bigger move than before, as the inventory situation is getting more bearish and the WTI/Brent spread speaks to this.

By January 2017 if wti can get to 70 uso will be at 27 and 18 january 2017 calls will be worth 9 dollars. U can buy them now at 4 dollars. What are the odds of this trade working as planned?
You are forgetting about the rollover effect on USO. Right now, with this steep contango futures curve, USO is losing 4%/month on rollovers.
