#earnings MOMO
Jeff do have data on MOMO? Thanks
#LongLEAPs #SyntheticCoveredCalls Sold $TQQQ March 22nd 52 calls for 1.25 (earlier)
#SPX1dte The is the kind of hit this strategy cannot suffer often. Bought to close $SPX March 11th 2770 calls for 6.10. I was working to close for the last 20 minutes but could not get a pullback. I will make a few cents back sell the long 2790’s, but only .20-.30 cents (first ones just filled for .20).
I’m going to maintain a view of weakness and sell an aggressive call spread to work on the roll.
I set my sights to close after we breached 2760. Wasn’t too concerned until by shorts hit 3.00. Then, the rally would not relent. This was the Monday I was looking for last week, when I was LONG calls. I almost made the same trade on Friday but decided to go short. Then, the rally into the close set me up for this painful Monday.
#CoveredCalls – Going out just one month. This will capture the divvy and then allow another sale in earnings the following week.
Bought to Close T MAR 15 2019 31.0 Calls @ .02 (sold for .41)
Sold T APR 18 2019 31.0 Calls @ .23
#Earnings — This is another cheap shot with a fairly new stock that’s been volatile. Profit range allows 20% in either direction. If this drifts toward the center during the week it could be a triple or quadruple.
Bought $SFIX Mar15/Mar22 25 #DoubleCalendar for .20, .24, .25.

#CoveredCalls – Rolling a few days early to avoid possible exercise (and I won’t have much market access Thur-Fri). For some reason this ticker likes the early exercise…
Rolled TNA MAR 15 2019 52.0 Calls to MAY 17 2019 54.0 Calls @ .72 credit
#SPX1dte Closed $SPX March 11th 2690 short puts for .05. Will work to close 2770 short calls as stop was breached.
#ShortPuts – Staying prior to next earnings. Look to roll into the high IV or sell covered call then if needed.
Sold BA APR 18 2019 325.0 Put @ 3.50
