You can scroll down a couple posts to my comment in Jeff’s “NVDA, partial roll” thread to see my reasoning for this. Basically, Dan pointed out in his free video last night the weekly squeeze in NVDA. TOS shows it just getting started and JC says these usually run 8-10 bars.
Because of all of this, and all the premium booked yesterday, I feel I can get a little directional and if it doesn’t work can get the stock at a very nice basis if required.
Rolled Sep 120 and 130 calls to Jun 140 puts @ 1.50 debit avg per contract
Sold NVDA JUN 16 2017 150.0 Calls @ .80
More than made up that .70 debit with this:
Bought to Close NVDA MAY 19 2017 128.0 Put @ 2.45 (sold for 5.76)
Bought to Close NVDA MAY 19 2017 129.0 Put @ 3.15 (sold for 6.58)
Bought to Close NVDA MAY 19 2017 130.0 Put @ 3.45 (sold for 7.54)
Bought to Close NVDA MAY 19 2017 131.0 Put @ 4.05 (sold for 7.77)
Bought to Close NVDA MAY 19 2017 132.0 Put @ 4.75 (sold for 8.42)
So, what’s the big picture?
Stock moves up it’s all good. Stock tanks and I roll puts down and eventually own the stock 8 dollars below the put strike since total premium so far is about 8 dollars per contract. Hopefully can have this all wrapped up by next earnings where we can do it all again! 🙂 🙂
