AAPL put

#CoveredCallCampaign
I know this is a strategy for selling calls against stock, but my love for #ShortStrangles makes me want to take advantage of weakness…

Sold $AAPL July 6th 185 put for 1.70. Already long stock and short calls at 195 and 197.5.

Puts sold

#LEAPs Selling some puts on weakness. I’m basically strangling these long LEAP and #CoveredCallCampaign stocks… kind of an adjustable strangle after having to roll some breached calls.

Sold $PYPL July 6th 83 put for 1.25
Sold $SQ July 6th 58 put for 1.20

SQ calls sold

In $SQ I am both long stock for the #CoveredCallCampaign and also long Jan 2019 60 calls for the #LEAPs strategy. So selling short-term calls against both positions.

#shortputs #coveredcallcampaign #assignment CRUS

I was assigned CRUS through the exercise of a short 45 put. This started as a put spread that went bad, sold the long and rolled the short to June 15, giving me a basis of 40.15, not bad if CRUS stabilizes, on to selling calls. CELG discussion below noted.

Kicking A

#Earnings Starting to peel off $A 65 puts at a small loss… big rally today but don’t want to leave full position on overnight with risk of early assignment or a big drop tomorrow. Won’t work for #PieTrades or #CoveredCallCampaign since there are no weeklys and weak premium.

Closed $A May 18th 65 put for 1.23; 65/75 strangles sold for .77 on Monday.

Covered calls

#CoveredCallCampaign #CoveredCalls.
On Friday, closed $SQ Apr 27th 50 call for 1.77. Strike was breached, so I closed, and then stock dropped a lot more. Today, I sold Apr 27th 46 put for 1.20. Getting this roll in before earnings on May 2nd.

Today, closed $FB Apr 27th 175 call for 1.55. Sold for 1.60 on 3/29… I believe I sold this when earnings were expected to be around May 1. Now they are confirmed for Apr 25th, and I don’t want to be in its way.

Trades this week

#ContangoETFs #CoveredCalls #CoveredCallCampaign #VXXGame #Earnings

Here are a few trades other than SPX:
Today: BTC $DUST Jun 15th 40 call for .25. Sold for 3.05 on Dec 4th.

Yesterday: BTC $FB Apr 20th 160 put for 3.00. Sold for 1.37 on March 19th. Backed out to early, not anticipating the rally the Zuck’s testimony would create.

Friday: BTC $FDX Apr 20th 235 puts for 6.77. Sold for 6.75 on 3/23 as when #Rolling from an earnings trade. I had margin pressure on Friday. Scaling back in since then:
Sold May 4th 235 put for 6.05;
Sold May 4th 237.5 put for 5.55.
This one seems like a buy… it’s just waiting for market to relax.

Friday: Closed $BABA Apr 27th 200 call for .18. Sold for 1.90 on 3/29.
Today: Sold BABA May 11th 195 call for 1.40

FB beating

We were all early selling puts on this one. Looking like a decent buying opportunity… I can’t imagine their current troubles will greatly effect profits, but they are taking a bigger toll than I expected.

$TIF 109 calls

— Expiring w/max loss —
$SPX 2840/2860 long call spreads, purchased for 1.00 avg price.
$UVXY 91 long calls… purchased for 0.158 avg price… served me well as hedges against short calls
$SQ long 60 calls, bought for 0.964, avg price

#Assignment
$SQ 50 long calls, bought for 0.858, avg price. Taking stock (200 shares, cost basis 50.86) and adding it to #CoveredCallCampaign

$AVGO 255 long put – I exited one 265 short put for 9.10. Then, volatility at the close denied my fill on closing more, PLUS, we dropped below my long strike. So, this likely means one spread expired ITM, so a 10.00 debit (against 7.60 sale), but I will likely be assigned short shares based on the ITM long 255 put. Because I feel this may bounce on Monday, I’m buying shares after hours so the assignment will cancel out my position and I’ll be flat. This would amount to about a 2.50 loss overall on the trade.
