#earnings #closing WHR Yesterday sold…
all SPX stopped
#SPX1dte Today I said to myself, nothing is happening so I might as well sell the 1-day trade early. Immediately after the fill, something happened. Now that daily trade news has quieted, we get to worry about Brexit again?
My spread was tight to begin with, so really can’t withstand even a little volatility. I was looking for the bounce to make it okay, but we fell again and are within expected move.
BTC $SPX Oct 23rd 2985/2965 put spreads for 2.50, after the bell. Condors sold for .90 about 100 minutes earlier. I’ll leave call side to expire.
I was going to leave the 3-day put spread to fight another day, but the end of the day was too ugly, then it just got worse after the bell.
BTC $SPX 2990/2965 put spreads for 6.25. Sold for 3.45 earlier today.
Upside Warning gave us a little this time around; hopefully it’s not done but I ain’t betting on it after the last few weeks.

#assignment WDC
This weekend I say good bye to an old friend, we weren’t friends at first, a very trying relationship, but we somehow worked it out.
In July of 2018 I sold a 76 put as WDC had dropped from around 106. I rolled to 75 and was promptly assigned at 75. Through put and call sales I was assigned 3 more times as recently as June of 2019 at much lower strikes. Option premium as been good, easy to roll, plus dividends made it profitable for my 200 shares to be called away at 55, making around $600.
Thanks to so many of you who have demonstrated how to roll and adjust, making lemonade.

#Earnings Sold to close $TEAM Oct18/Oct25 122 #DoubleCalendar for 1.60. Bought yesterday for 1.34
The time to close this was at the open…. it unfortunately dropped most of the day, but then came back enough to give us a small profit.
Have a nice weekend
I am done for the day and who knows what the news will be on the weekend.
Closing SFIX call/synthetic long
$SFIX has had a good run in the past week, so I’m taking profits. I entered into a Synthetic Long Call $21.00 with Nov 15 expiration on 10/10 for $0.25 debit. I closed the Nov 15 $21.00 put side yesterday at a $0.50 debit. Day traded a Nov 8 $22.00 call today at the lows (BTO $1.60) and closed it with my Nov 15 $21.00 Call for credit of $4.80 – so net profit at $2.45.
Still bullish on this one long term, but it looks like a pattern is forming, and while not overbought yet, I could see it dipping back down over the next few days. I’m a “TastyBites” guy as well, so I don’t have the margin to trade multiple lots and take profits off of table a bit at a time!
All cash going into weekend– have a good couple of days off and see you next week.
