AAPL iron butterfly
#Earnings Your typical ATM play, with 3 days to work if AAPL bounces around until Friday.
Sold to Open 100/104/108 iron butterflies for 3.22… risking .78 to make 3.22.
CMG butterflies
#Earnings A fairly cheap play, low probability, placing butterflies on both sides at the expected move of about 30 points. Something fun to watch the rest of the week…
Sold to Open $CMG Apr 22 470/480/490 call butterfly for .80
Sold to Open $CMG Apr 22 400/410/420 put butterfly for .90
CMG earnings trade
Small position outside 2 standard deviations. Taking a risk that much of the bad news is priced in and the stock doesn’t have another 10 or so percent down in it. Strike is below the big January low.
Sold $CMG Apr 29 392.50 put @ 1.60
NFLX Put Sold
NFLX Jun16 85 Put for $2.44 when NetFlix at 92.31
Reasons:

2. Bottom of BollingerBand 2SD (my chart URL)

3. If assigned, will to buy at $85 (or) exit at 50% profit.
Anyone trading AAPL?
Considering a butterfly around 105, or maybe some puts. Anyone else?
$FB
BTC April 29th Bull Put Spread @ 0.55. Originally sold at 0.83 on 4/13 and had planned to close it tomorrow before earnings. I had a GTC order for 0.30 but with the sell off this afternoon I decided to close it early.
SPX calls stopped
#SPXcampaign Bought to close $SPX May 27th 2125/2150 call spreads for 6.00. Sold for 4.50 on March 29th. Not a bad loss, but the call side continues to be toxic. I am reserving any and all calls for above 2150. I will look for roll options to replace this loss.
