Another week is in the books. I truly get it when these old stock traders are still surprised with the markets even though they been trading...
We are having the typical gyrations when revisiting pivot points. I do think we go higher and any dips here should be bought for longer term...
Yes, but it doesn't solve the underlying issue of the low vol. Once you go more ITM, it becomes more of a delta bet and less theta, which is what...
As expected, sold 4 puts at the open and a few more calls. This is the weakness of selling cash secured puts vs long stock, shown in real time:...
Bought 600 shares near the open as planned and sold 1 call. Tomorrow, most likely sell 5 puts near the open. I see some threads looking for...
Interesting moment at the close on Thursday when prices last traded at 53. Guess where most of my strikes were...On Friday morning, all of my...
Still bullish. Markets are complacent, but not dangerously so. Sold some more puts expiring tomorrow. It's hilarious if you annualize some of...
It's more of a psychological issue as I just can't stand it when the stock isn't moving. Selling options fits my psychological profile, if you...
Did not think that we would gap up on Friday, but looking back, it seems like an "obvious" consolidation period and Friday was where we broke...
Just a quick update: sold a bunch more covered strangles. I did sell 10 puts on Monday since I was so close to flat and wanted to add some delta...
Probably should just make this a weekly thing since I'm so busy (aka I'm lazy). All my calls got assigned so I'm back down to 200 shares. To get...
Was too busy to update this for a while, so let's get to it: bought a bunch of shares in this recent dip and sold covered calls. It worked out...
So my short term bearish thesis is completely blown out of the water, but luckily my longer term sanguine outlook saved me from throwing money...
Sold 4 more puts before the late afternoon sell-off, but these position sizes are so small, it's not a big deal. Looking to sell another 3 puts...
Instead of buying the 100 shares/sell 4 puts as I planned, I just bought 500 shares. Later on sold another call. What to do when your brain is...
As expected, all of my calls got assigned while my puts expired. This puts my equity position back to flat with 4 48.5 straddles...and a put. If...
I'm neutral on the short term outlook. On one hand, the longer we can hang around these highs, the more likely it's consolidation before taking...
Sold 3 more puts and 5 calls. Wow, recently these markets are not doing any kind of back and fill, just straight up Vs up and down. My macro...
I sold 8 47 calls and 1 47 put expiring this Friday. Looking to sell another ~6 calls tomorrow as long as UPRO stays above 46.5. Will sell a...
Nice rally today, but overall thesis hasn't changed. Sold 4 calls and 2 puts, updated spreadsheets to make more information available. I would...
