$JWN #ShortPuts – Bought to close 1 JWN JUL 21 2017 32.5 Put @ 0.01. It won’t trade any lower.
Still 32 days until expiration.
Originally sold on 1/18/2017 at 1.20.
I still have some of the #OptionLadder left with short Oct and Jan Puts.

$SVXY

SPX trades
#SPXcampaign STOPPED: Closed $SPX June 23rd 2450/2475 call spreads for 6.40. Sold for 4.50 on June 9th.
Closed on GTC orders:
June 26th 2390/2360 put spreads for .25. Sold a smart of a #CondorRoll for 3.60 on June 14th.
June 30th 2340/2315 put spreads for .20. Sold as part of a #CondorRoll for 4.55 on May 25th.
COST
I actually bought some options on COST.
BTO July 21, 157.5 calls @7.50 on 5 contracts. There is a lot of selling going on today from one institution to another. I think the AMZN news is over done and the decline in COST is over done as well. The customer base for WFD and COST is different and this merger makes no sense to me at this time. I may be wrong but I can wait a month to find out.
NVDA
#ShortCalls – June 30th 175s looking safe so going for the double dip…selling against 180/150 Bull put spreads.

#ShortPuts
Sold to Open June 23rd 60 Puts @ 0.87. Will roll as need be. I may take assignment.
Short call assignment question:
This is a first for me, I think. I was holding an 88/93 BeCS on TSO that expired Friday. TSO closed at 92.43. I had received 2.48 credit for the spread about 2 weeks ago. Today I open my account to see that I’m short a position in TSO at 88. I got TSO called away from me, and the long call I had at 93 was not exercised automatically by TDA. It also showed I was in a maintenance call. Was able to go ahead and buy back the short position, but the rep at TDA couldn’t really explain to me very well why it wasn’t automatically taken care of. Any ideas? Thoughts? Recommendations? Is this normal?
The only good thing out of this was they threw in a few free trades for the hassle.
SPX stop and roll
#SPXcampaign Stopped: $SPX July 14th 2475/2500 call spreads for 4.55. Sold on Friday for 1.85.
#CondorRoll Sold July 3rd 2405/2430/2475/2500 call spreads for 4.90.
The call side of the condor has the same strikes as the stopped spread but its expiry is 11 days earlier. May need further management but puts me in less danger at the moment.
Looking at stops on a couple other call spreads as well.
