BTC the 14.00 calls that expire today at .02 that I sold last week at .24, I could have waited or let them expire but this moves around a lot like last week so decided to take the money and run.

Sorry, they were covered calls.

STO September 14, 1900/1920 bull put spread at 1.90

Rolled my September 14, 69 calls to September 28 70 calls for a credit of .40 cents. Just taking the opportunity to roll them to a better strike price and some premium. One day we will get a correction and I will let the short dated calls just expire or am I just smoking hopium.

BTO 2020 195 calls @ 23.00 and STO October 205 calls @ 1.35, adding to my position.

I rolled my August 31, 105 calls out to October 115 calls for a credit of 1.35 against my 2020, 115 calls. So far I have covered 25% of my cost and have 67 more weeks to go if the October 5 calls expire at zero.

I am checking out early since it is so quiet and I rolled all that I had expiring this week.

This is my bearish trade that I am rolling. The 57 puts that I am short will expire today so I sold the October 60 puts For 1.50 against my 2019, 50 puts that I own and are under water. I have covered .61% of my cost but these expire this January so after October 5, I only have 15 more weeks to break even or roll into a longer expiration.

I have the 205 calls that will expire today so I sold the October 5, 185 calls for 2.90, 42 days to expiration. I will just keep rolling and rolling.

Rolled August 31, 68 calls to September 7, 68.5 call for a credit of .23 cents which is what I need each week to cover my 2020, 66.67 calls. I have covered 7.4% of the cost so far and have 73 more weeks to go.

My 69.5 calls expired on Friday so today I sold the August 31, 68 calls for .50cents against my 66.67 calls in 2020. I need .23 cents per week to cover the cost of my leap calls so am right on schedule so far.

STO August 31, 205 calls @ .70 cents, long 195 calls in 2020.

Is this the start of something bigger or just the weekend selling?

BTC October 85 puts @.05, sold at 1.26

I am out of all my bullish trades on this ETF. I picked up nice premiums and rolled for better strikes as well. Nice to be in cash right now. About 63% cash and still have a bearish trade on the TQQQ which I am under water on. I think it will be okay as I only need .25 cents per week and the expiration is in January 2019. There are a lot of good traders here and thank all of you for great ideas as well. Now if we could get the TQQQ down to the $40 level I can get back in.
Also, thanks to these trades I have made back 50% of my loss on the SVXY so far.

Yesterday I bought the 1780/1790 call spread that expires today for 5.60 and sold it for 9.90 this morning. I could have just let it expire today but I will let someone else make the .10 cents. The market feels a bit uneasy today.
