AZO earnings
#Earnings Usually a good one to trade, but this quarter it’s announcing one day after monthly expiration, and has no weekly options. So an order is in to sell one 670 put (June 17th) for 2.50 if it fills. The most it has moved down over a 34 day period is 5.3%, which would take us to 690.
$SVXY Covered Call
Just came onboard. Hoping to learn from everyone. Here is a trade I did earlier today.
Sold SVXY June 03 2016 59.50 Calls @ 0.90
I’ve been holding SVXY for a long time and I am finally almost at break even. Looking to unload them and maybe get back in the game when I learn more about these kinds of ETFs.

$MAIN
Sold June 29.73 Put @ 0.25. I have standing GTC orders for the stock and am using this to capture the monthly dividend plus while I wait. Risk is I give up capital gains if the stock takes off or it implodes. These are long term holds for me.

Market doesn’t seem to have conviction and direction
Like last year, the market staying at a shallow trading range; Jeff’s system is great for this market condition. Last year we made a bunch of money, until Aug, when the bottom fell off.

$SVXY just checking on weekly’s and realized that July 1 is the last open at this time. Was wondering when are new weekly options usually opened? What would be the range they cover, as in weekly options for two months or three? I am selling puts in a two and a 7 week cycle. Thanks

NUGT calls
#ContangoETFs I am heavier on puts so selling calls reduces my margin. Plus, being short on the call side is better in the long run anyway.
