$SVXY #ShortCalls – Sold 1 SVXY Jan 18 2019 320 Call @ 13.10 with the stock at 167.97.
Highest available strike for now.
This gives me more room to sell SVXY puts on the next downdraft.
edit: with the VIX below 10, the timing of this trade should look pretty good over the next month.

$GILD $ALXN – These have rallied enough that selling OTM calls with strikes near the 52 week highs makes sense against my portfolio of short puts
NVDA
#ShortCalls – Double selling against some ITM puts. Closed this week’s already and have a stop set on July monthlies at 50 percent of max profit. That all seems good so adding another batch…still keeping everything before earnings week.
Sold NVDA JUL 28 2017 175.0 Calls @ 1.10 (half position for now)
SPX ITM roll
#SPXcampaign Bought to close $SPX July 3rd 2425/2450 call spreads for 15.20. Sold last Monday for 19.30.
#ITMroll Sold to Open SPX July 10th 2430/2455 call spreads for 15.00.
Was able to exit at 8:33 PT and then sell the roll on the bounce at 9:00 PT so I had a roughly even roll, no additional spread necessary.
Hey gang, been gone for…
Hey gang, been gone for 2 weeks again so that should end the June schedule conflicts. Now sitting in 90+% cash just letting positions continue to run off. Waiting for opportunities to pounce.
