The OP probably can't cash out on the RSUs at this point, and options plays are like shooting fish in a barrel at the moment. Remember that the hard part of an options play is knowing when something is going to happen with a fair amount of accuracy, but there probably won't be a miraculous recovery of the market in the next 24-48 hours.

No, the hard part of trading anything is having edge over other people. Options are not priced assuming there will be a "miraculous recovery" in the next 24 hours. They're priced based on the world's expectation of future volatility, through a very competitive market mechanism. There is no reason to assume you have better insight than people who model this stuff full-time.

It's irresponsible to suggest that making money trading is akin to shooting fish in a barrel. Best case, it's a slightly negative EV gamble with high variance.
