Closing NFLX
As promised, BTC $NFLX 10/11 250/240 bull put spread @ 1.60. Small loss (sold for 1.41 a little while ago).
SPX adding call spread
#SPX1dte Using this Montana dip to add another long… 10 points lower and another day later than yesterday’s:
Bought to Open $SPX Sept 30th 3035/3050 call spreads for 2.50. SPX at 2994.

NFLX put spread
I may be a bit early but STO $NFLX 10/11 250/240 bull put spread @ 1.41. I will have this on a very short leash–if we break lower again below today’s LOD of 268.00 I will close this and get out of the way. 10/11 expiration (weekly) to avoid earnings on 10/16.
OSTK
#CoveredCalls
STO 10.18.2018 $OSTK 20 calls @0.95
FDX
BTC the 190 calls at .01 but, still short the 150 puts for October 18. This was not as bad as the ULTA trade.
NVDA
#ShortPuts – Needing a pullback in this one to get a better roll for my covered call. What better way to get a pullback than to add a bullish position? 🙂 🙂 . Selling near the 200ma and two weeks before earnings…
Sold NVDA OCT 25 2019 162.5 Put @ 2.45
NFLX
BTC NFLX 9/20 165/175 #BuPS @1.28. Was STO 8/12 @1.42. Stock at 276.50 or so.
Is frustrating as this was ~@0.05 yesterday at the close. Looks like there was unfavorable analyst news out this morning which caused the underlying to tank. How convenient.
