SPY Put Ladder

#spyladder #shortputs – Closed most open positions on the bounce to control risk. Then, at the close, sold OTM put for 2 weeks out. Only current open option position:

STO Mar 4 2022 408 Put @ 2.20

Today is the first weekly close below the 50-Wk MA since the week of 6/22/2020. If we get a second consecutive close below that MA next Friday, as they say on Shark Tank, “I’m out.” I’ll close the open short put at the close and wait until SPY proves that it is ready to launch a new uptrend.

If, on the other hand, SPY closes above the MA, I’ll keep the open put and sell another one for 2 weeks after that.

(Edit) Forgot about another account:
STO March 4 2022 409 Put @ 2.20

BA,

Interesting trade from SMM.
BTO, January 2023, 260 calls and STO May 20, 220 calls at $2.00 debit. If the May calls expire at zero, the next trade should give you a profit. I put it on for a small trade at $2.00

SPXL

#CoveredCalls – Will be assigned on a Jade Lizard today. Stock basis will be 109.60. Selling the covered call with max downside protection that would still result in a profit if called away.

Sold SPXL MAR 18 2022 95.0 Call @ 15.80

Stock would get called at 95 with basis 93.80
