Also, Sept 18th 3010/2985 expires, and based on closing SPX price of 3006.01, it will cash settle at a cost of 3.99. Sold it last Friday for 7.00. I expected a rally after the Fed, but it put me through the ringer first.

SPX 1-DTE Expiring

Expiring $SPXW 9/18/2019 2930/2945/3040/3055 #IronCondor STO 9/17 @0.90

Been following these when I can – usually going with $15 wide spreads. Stops at $5 away from the short options strikes, which helps keep me from feeling like I need to watch the chart constantly.

Thank you Jeff!

$FDX had tried as an earningstrade a strangle 150/190 exp Oct18. Didn’t give me the success I wanted, i rolled the call down to 165 collected extra premium and will wait a little. My BEP is 146.85 on the put side. This will be my last time trading FDX once this is resolved.

ROKU roll

Rolled $ROKU 10/18 180/190 bear call spread down to 155/165 for 1.37 credit. This is part of an iron condor with a 140/130 bull put spread. Short puts have been breached so I rolled the call spread down. This iron condor was a rollout from September. Total credit taken in so far on the rolled position is 4.71 putting my breakevens near 135 and 160.

CHWY puts

#PostEarnings Sold to Open $CHWY Oct 11th 28 puts for 1.50.

This is a recent IPO which, like UBER, hasn’t shown much volatility. It’s also a low-priced stock which minimizes the risk of these ATM puts.
