UVXY sold Aug 19 25…
UVXY sold Aug 19 25 call for .93, was assigned from a 24 put that was profitable earlier last week. My cost basis is now 22.30. I have been under the impression that markets occasionally go down but I’m not so sure about that anymore.
SVXY roll

Closing this week’s NUGT
Decided to close these positions at a profit and release the buying power. I have plenty of exposure to this ticker so I don’t need to bleed this week’s theta.
Bought to close $NUGT Aug 12 200 calls @ .35 (sold for 1.50 on 7/26)
Bought to close $NUGT Aug 12 155 puts @ 4.10 (sold for 6.30 on 8/2)
CHTR earnings
#Earnings Following trade is VOIDED. Mistake on entry; I did not get these prices so I’m closing for a small loss now, not worth the risk.
Sold to Open $CHTR Aug 12th 215/220/250/255 iron condors for 1.70. Over last 3 years: Biggest 5-DAY UP move: 5.5%, Biggest DOWN move: -8.0%, Average 5-day move: 3.9%. This trade is about 6.3% OTM on each side.
SVXY roll
BTC August 19, 60 calls and STO December 70 calls for a credit of 0.25 cents.
SVXY
STO September 23, 58 put @2.70 to replace some of the puts that expired on Friday. I think this could get to 90 or 95 if the FED does nothing before the end of the year.
NUGT…back on track
Sold NUGT AUG 12 2016 170.0 Call @ 3.00
Paired with this week’s 155 put. Back in the routine now…selling a fairly aggressive strangle in this week and next week. That allows a 2 week rollout of the current week if needed and still collecting big theta while only requiring small margin.
SPX Opening range – 4…
SPX Opening range – 4 point range!?
