NUGT :)
If I ever have another dog I will name it Nugget! LOL…
Oops…one more (AGQ short calls)
Still hedging my short ZSL with short AGQ…rolled Dec 33 calls down to 30 and added more. Daring silver to rally here.
$SVXY…boring but a moneymaker
Still continuing aggressive shorting of puts and calls near the money on a weekly basis. Rolled 60 puts to next week’s 58 for .10 credit. 59 calls expiring today so sold next week 59’s for 1.70. As long as it grinds sideways these weeklies are pretty rich. Still overall net long SVXY so would love to see calls get in trouble. In the IRA I think I’ll let stock get called today at 57 with a 53 basis.
Great weekend everyone!
BOIL Bear call spreads (KOLD)
Closed Dec 30/40 for a dime. Eases the KOLD pain a little.
On the KOLD subject I also rolled my short puts from 140 to 155 against 105 calls. Strangle is now inverted 50 points while bringing in 48.58 so right now if KOLD closes Dec between 105 and 155 I’ll be at a 1.42 loss (if I let it expire). On the bright side with the huge amount of premium brought in I’ll have plenty of firepower to adjust on the next roll. Right now goal is to get out anywhere near even since it’s such a margin hog at TDA. Staying small is the key to being able to stay in these types of (experimental) trades.
#OptionsExpiration
Hope everyone had a great holiday and today was nice and boring in the market (other than Nat Gas).
A bit of an early ball spike but don’t expect to be around this afternoon.

Have a great weekend everyone.
TZA Bear call spreads
Closed a few of these for pennies. Still short Dec 11 weeklies and Jan monthlies.
NFLX puts
Been out working last few days but did mange a few odds and ends…
NFLX 120 puts expired last week so replaced them with 117 puts earlier this week. Now rolled those up to 123 puts for an additional 1.45 credit. Total credit now up to 2.75 expiring next week. Still aggressively selling the puts against ITM calls I’m short. Also short Jan 2017 put Leaps.

BTC $SPX Nov27 2100/2105 at 0.05. Probably go worthless, ha, but I’m going to enjoy the rest of the holiday by not sitting in front of the computer. Happy trading all. Jeff thanks for another successful blog week! PS…was the pie great?

#SPXcampaign Today I am looking to complete my full position for the Dec 24th expiry, which means I need a spread on each side. Starting with: STO $SPX Dec 24th 2165/2190 call spreads for 1.30.
Then, a few seconds later on a spike down: STO $SPX Dec 24th 1950/1925 put spreads for 1.40.
Done!
