STO November 15, 100 put at 2.10, earnings are on November 18

BTO December 90/110 call spread at 5.40

I am done for the day and who knows what the news will be on the weekend.

STO January 300 put at 5.40 on 1 contract. I will be adding if it goes lower.It works out to an 11% return for 91 days.

STO November 15,250 put at 2.65, adding to the position so, now short 2 at 3.95

STO December 230 puts at 6.50

BTC the October 18, 150 puts at .85 which was part of an earnings trade at .88 cents. It was part of a jade lizard and am happy to be out of that one.

STO November 15, 90 puts @ 2.75, stock is at 99

The chart is breaking lower with the 10,20,and 50 day all below the 150 and 200 day MA. Earnings are not until November 25, so I bought the February 21, 145 put at 8.80 and sold the November 15, 125 put at .45cents. I am trying to sell the November 8, 160 calls as well.

STO December 40 put at 1.75

I rolled my October 260 covered call out to the December 285 call for a credit of 1.20 which gets me closer to my cost level of $311 from that earnings trade. I am glad it was only 1 contract.

I forgot to post yesterday. BTO October 90 put at 1.95because I see the chart breaking down.

STO 1850/1860 bear call spread at 1.55 the stock is breaking down and below the 200 day MA. Also, just bought the 1730/1710 bear call spread at 8.25on 1 contract.

STO October 18, 50 puts @ 1.55, this is a SMM trade that they like but I missed the proper entry so decided to sell puts.

BTC the 190 calls at .01 but, still short the 150 puts for October 18. This was not as bad as the ULTA trade.

I am finally able to log in. Yesterday I STO the October 18, 36 puts for 1.85 and today I bought the November 50 calls on DHI for 2.75, the stock is at 51.05

STO October 18, 36 puts @ 1.85

STO October 18, 345 put @ 11.50 with the stock at 368

STO September 20, 260 covered call at 2.10

STC 16.5/17 strangle for a loss of 1.05 but, the Jade lizard on FIVE should cover that loss.

Got out of my 125/165 spread for an .05 profit  for September 20 expiration. I think the charts look really ugly.

Anyone know where this is down to today?

STO September 20, 80 puts at 2.50 with stock trading at 86.50, after seeing the CEO on Jim Cramer last night.Small spec play for me on a cancer treatment.

Not much of a rally at the close. It could get ugly tomorrow.

Someone posted that Trump has accepted an invitation to visit China for what that is worth.

I sold a small amount of the 170 puts at 3.17 in my IRA. I would be taking the stock at the 200 day MA if assigned.

I am done for the day.

BTC 2850/2900 put spread that expires today at 1.15, I sold it yesterday at 1.40 so happy to be out of it. I still have Monday and Wednesday to worry about. I don’ t have large positions so I can roll them next week.

BTC August 2, 2800/2840 put spread at .05, sold at .60 cents. I may have to roll some other put spreads but want to see if we can bounce later today.

Testing the water to see if traders are still bearish. Yesterday I sold some September 70/80 bear call spreads for .48 cents

STO September 20, 70/75 call spread at .45 cents against my long term leaps.

STO 75/80 bear call spread for September 20 at .41 cents. Filled on a partial.

BTO July 75/65 bear put spread at 2.55 and, at the same time STO twice as many of the 85 calls for a net debit of .75 cents. I have been watching this one and it is just a gym trading at a P/E of 70 times earnings.
