$SVXY #CoveredCalls – despite finishing 4 cents out of the money I got a partial assignment on my SVXY 81.5 Calls.
It’s all good. I acquired the stock at 65 just two weeks ago when some strike 65 puts ended just a few cents below 65 on a similar expiration day.

#OptionsExpiration #Monthly #Nov18 – Monthly…
#OptionsExpiration #Monthlys #Nov18 – Monthly expirations are always big. #FallingKnife positions put on months ago are expiring. Volatility trades were big this week with $SVXY setting a marginal new YTD high today.
Several Covered Calls also expired.
Only one assignment this week in $CVS

#OptionsExpiration #Weeklys #Nov11 – probably the biggest weekly expiration I have ever had.
Since I picked up additional $SVXY at 65 last week, I was very aggressive selling SVXY calls from 76 to 81. They all expired.
$NFLX covered puts got assigned taking me out of the stock I shorted at 123 after earnings. #FallingKnife trades in $AGN AMGN $BMY (all health care related) and $UA worked as well.
$NUGT caught up with my short put speculations but the stock is volatile and covered calls will be easy to sell.

$SVXY – change in aggressiveness…
$SVXY – noting a change in aggressiveness of the calls buyers. The stock just rebounded back over 74 but while the quote on the Nov 11 78.0 calls was 2.00/2.30 earlier, it is now 1.65/2.20.
As for the potential election move, I think a Clinton win is already baked into the market after yesterday’s big move and this morning’s follow thru rally.
I am positioned with giant SVXY strangles for this week. The closest short Puts are at 59.0 and the closest short calls are at 76.0. Of course I picked up a major new long stock position last Friday at 65 so the call side is not an issue for me.
Unless the market gets frisky late today I’m probably done trading until after the election results are in.
