NUGT adjustments
Busy most of this week but did a couple NUGT adjustments this morning….
Bought to Close NUGT APR 22 2016 70.0 Puts @ .28 (sold for 3.08)
Split this week’s calls into May monthly 75/85 strangles:
Rolled this week’s 75 call out to May monthly 85 call for .50 credit
Reverse rolled this week’s 75 call out to May monthly 75 puts (x2) for even
This leaves me for May with 65 and 75 puts and 85 and 95 calls. Let’s wait and see where we end up. Could possibly have to roll back to calls with these puts (or not LOL)
An SPX Bearish Debit Spread.
BTO Jun 3rd 2016 SPX 1980/1955 BePS for $2.30
The idea is not to hold it to expiration but to make maybe 50% on a market dip….
The max loss is $230 the max win is $2,270….It is a very long shot, but heck there has to be a dip before expiration with the market being overbought and all.
NFLX sold to open September 65 puts @1.30
$AAPL I closed the short…
$AAPL I closed the short leg of an April 22 107/110 BeCS for a small gain, pretty sure I followed someone here on it a few weeks ago. It was looking really bad last week so I’ll be happy with a small loss if AAPL stays in the 106-107 range the rest of the week.

FB puts
#Earnings #ShortStock #coveredputs
STO $FB April 29th 100 put for 1.20. Slowly building a larger put position as an eventual earnings play. If I have to stay short the stock into earnings, I want to sell a lot of puts to offset possible positive reaction in the stock.
NFLX sold to open June 80 puts @1.17

question for Jeff or anyone…
question for Jeff or anyone – I have a May5 2125/2150 call. It is being tested. With that much time left on option, do you get out now or wait for down day? Thanks, Jeff
Another day, another All-Time low…
Another day, another All-Time low in UVXY.
Silver at hew highs, ZSL…
Silver at hew highs, ZSL at new lows, lowest since August 2014. No position as the juice got drained out when they split it last November. I won’t be selling puts either. I think ProShares is now regretting making the split. #ContangoETFs
Earnings trades
#Earnings $NFLX down but bounced off lows and is still nicely centered between 90/125 strangle.
$JNJ up; will watch the rest of the week for a drift back toward 100. May close short puts early if they get cheap enough.
