Quote from ZeroHedge ….
If you, like us, are watching the insane meltup in TSLA which not only topped $1 trillion in market cap today, but has gained more than $140 billion since opening, a value that is almost as big as the market cap of GM and Ford, and is now rising by $1 billion every 5 seconds…
Sold 1 KOLD Nov 19 2021 5.0 Put at $0.60 against my last remaining long May 2023 3.0 Put.
#DoubleDip
Old pre-split contracts.
Sold my last lot of VXX1 Jan 21 2022 5.0 Puts at $0.67. Bought this lot on 03/16/21 at $0.16 and I wrote against them until September 2021 when the last logical write could be done.
I also have long 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0 VXX1 puts for January 2022 but since they are effectively in the money, I’m more likely to exercise those as a way of dumping a good portion of my long VXX stock before year end.
At least that is the current plan.
#VXXContango
Next lot of stock sold at $320.00
Bought this on 5/04/2021 at $280.00.
Average cost on my remaining shares now down to 246.
#SPX5dte When $SPX was at 4551, sold to close Oct 27th 4530/4510 put spreads for 3.35. Still holding 4540/4560 call side. Condors bought for 14.75 on Thursday.
