SVXY
This morning sold May 20th 60 Calls @ 0.45 against long stock. I am exploring the best point to cover up long stock for an income trade or to take assignment and revert to cash for secured put selling. This strike is 8 points above my initial basis of 52 so being assigned is fine. A strike is rather fickle more being selected based on income capture rather than insured assignment. At some point assignment is the end game but where or how to determine that is the topic of interest to me.

$SVXY #CoveredCalls #Rollup #OptionLadder – As I said earlier today SVXY is back to it’s old ways, rallying on expiration day.
Once again, I split up a major short call position, due this week, into three parts to spread the risk across multiple expiration dates.

Morning all. Didn’t get these posted yesterday. Sold May 3rd 50 P @ 1.40 and Sold May 20th 45 P @ 1.20.
#VXXGame
The only interesting thing I can say about today is that VIX, VXX, and UVXY are down, but have moved straight across since the early morning drop. Days like these often lead to a very sharp, steady plummet in UVXY, but not today. VIX reached new lows today, surpassing October’s low, but also has been straight across since morning. All of they while SPX has drawn a perfect 45 degree line UP since about 11am ET.
What does it mean? I don’t know what anything means in this market lately.
UVXY: Taking some more January risk off
Without any great opening trade opportunities I thought I’d look for ways to continue reducing my overweight January short call positions in UVXY. The position is now getting more manageable in the event of a huge spike in the VIX/UVXY. I may leave the rest to expire so I don’t take the tax hit until 2017 (and not have to pay the tax bill for 2 more years) but I’ll see how it goes.
Bought to close $UVXY Jan 20 2017 170 call @ .85. Sold for 13.80 on 1/8/16.
Bought to close $UVXY Jan 20 2107 95 call @ 1.75. Sold for 19.00 on 8/21/15.
