TheoTrade
Is anyone familiar with the Risk Twist Put spread as explained by TheoTrade?
SPY October 19th Exp.
STO 276 PUT x 1
BTO 266 PUT x 3
STO 264 PUT x 1
For a debit of $1.30
Apparently it is good for protection in a pullback of about 7%
They are saying that you can put this trade on about 4 times per year, 90 DTE
When I try to analyze the trade, it looks like risk of loss significantly increases after 30 days, so in my mind, you have to close and re-establish a new trade every 30 days.
If you know this trade, can you tell me the best way to manage it?

#OptionsExpiration #Earnings #ContangoETFs
— Expiring w/max profit —
$COF 93.5 puts, sold yesterday for 1.40
$GUSH 48 call, sold for 1.05 last month
$ISRG 520/525 call spread, sold yesterday for 2.75 (wish I’d waited on both!)
$NFLX 475 call, sold Monday for 1.00
$SNA 145 puts, sold Wednesday
— Assignments —
$MU 54 and 54.5 #CoveredCalls #PieTrades Originally assigned via 55 puts, after a few weeks of call sales, exiting with cost basis around 51.
$SNA 170 calls, going short the stock. No weekly options on this so I think it will be quicker to get out on a dip next week.

FAS BTC July 20th 67.50 calls at 1.35. Originally sold 7/13 for 0.88. I will re-cover long stock at a more opportune price.

NVDA super-charger
#SuperCharger Following Mama and Mort:
Bought to open $NVDA Aug 17th 230/240 bull call spread for 7.55.
WYNN SWKS earnings
As @fuzzballl mentioned earlier, some companies move their earnings dates around making pre-ER trades more difficult. WYNN is one of those companies. They moved their tentative earnings date from 7/26 to 8/1 but still not confirmed. This is probably a good one to avoid and SWKS too.
FB covered Call closed
#CoveredCallCampaign BTC $FB July 20th 210 #CoveredCall for 1.00 to avoid assignment. Sold for 2.00 on June 20th.
Bring on the earnings!
DOCU Closed my short 7/20…
DOCU Closed my 1 short 7/20 55 Put for 3.20. Taking that 1.00 loss to avoid deeper risk. Miss managed this earlier when it was 40% profitable. Hadn’t hit the 50% target so I waited……That didn’t turn out so well.
Adding CVS
Sold $CVS Nov 16 57.50 puts @ 1.36. Dropped down a strike (already short the Nov 60 puts).
CHKP pre-earnings
Sold Aug17 115c @ 1.11 for 71% profit. Bot @ 1.90.
This is my last round of CHKP pre-earnings.
Close
STC PBR Jul 20 10/13 BuCS @1.35 6/1 BTO @ 1.00
STC EWZ started 5/29 was a big loser but worked it until today and closed for a small profit. Thx to Sue, MamaCash and Fuzball for help.
STC LMT +140.00 on one I tried hard to screw it up but came out with a profit.
SWKS
STO November 80 puts @1.45 with stock trading at 97.29
PYPL puts closed
#LEAPs Another one I’m closing early to avoid any intraday surprises.
BTC $PYPL July 20th 87.5 puts for .11. Sold for 1.26 (avg price) last Friday.
I’m trading short term around PYPL against Jan 2019 100 long calls.
NFLX put closed
#Earnings $NFLX has not recovered from its drop strongly and I don’t want to mess with this if it drops into the close.
BTC NFLX July 20th 360 put for .27. Sold for 3.46 last week. Leaving 475 call to expire.
NVDA supercharger
I’ll be trading pre-earnings on NVDA but it’s a little early to put on unhedged calls so starting with a supercharger.
Bot NVDA Aug17 230/240 BuCS @ 7.60. GTC order to close at 9.40.

Trading war
Trump says he’s ‘ready’ to put tariffs on all $505 billion of Chinese goods imported to the US.
The market seems not affected by this news.

ISRG half closed
#Earnings Closed one of my $ISRG 520/525 call spreads for 4.49. Saved 51 bucks from allowing it to expire ITM. I’ll wait longer on the other one in case the stock starts dropping. Sold them yesterday for 2.75.
