Sold SPX put spread for…

Sold SPX put spread for tomorrow. 2000/2010 for .40 cent credit. It may be there tomorrow and it could be risky. If I see something for next week that is too good to pass up I will try to post it.

Also did a 1 x 2 in gpro that worked well which I may do again but move down a little bit. I bought 1 19 put and sold 2 18.50 for a .40 credit. Currently slight ITM (which is fine). We will see what tomorrow brings. But if you look about 2 weeks out you can probably get the same kind of credit and I might consider starting a bit lower depending on what the chain looks like. If I put the trade on I will post it.

Follow up on GMCR – I was obviously wrong. However, I rolled the short Nov. 30 put to Nov. week 4 42 put for 15 cent credit. Not a super good use of margin but I hate losing money.

Buying a put calendar in…

Buying a put calendar in GMCR for earnings. Nov./Dec. at the 30 strike for approx. 50 cent debit. Will change it to a put credit spread later if GMCR doesn’t go down to cover the costs of the Dec. put.

SPX trade didn’t fill but there may be other opportunities next week. They traded a boatload of puts at the 1800 strike for .80 cents or so.

SPX trade in case the market gets ugly this afternoon

I’m trying a 1860/1870 SPX put credit spread for next week for .45 cents in case the market gets super ugly into the close.  This is currently above market.
