On Dec. 14 I sold a Jan. EXAS 48 put, was assigned, sold a 50 call and had it called away over the weekend. I went to sell a 50 put and the volume for Feb. 2, 50 puts is 12,088. Nothing is even remotely close to this in volume or option interest. Earnings are Feb. 19. Cause for alarm maybe?

Yesterday it was looking like I was going to be able to roll these up and out for a nice credit, the move higher today now has them far enough ITM that it’s tough to do without going out in time. So rolled out 2 weeks and we’ll see if we get any sort of weakness that will allow the next roll to be out and up for a credit.

Closed $FB Jan 26th 180 put for .12. Sold on last week’s dip for 3.55. After getting crushed on my last covered call, I made up most of the loss by selling this put on the news-driven drop. Now I will wait until earnings on the 31st and sell strangles.

Dec. 14 I sold a Jan. 19, 48 put for 1.70. Looked good until Friday afternoon, was assigned. Sold a Jan. 26, 48 call for 1.30, cost basis of 45.. If I wouldn’t have spent the morning in a dental chair I would have done a little better on the call.

#coveredcalls $SVXY
BTC Jan 19 $120 call for $12.65, got greedy earlier today when price touched $11. Still made 0.50 per contract. I am allowing the second tranche of 120 calls to be exercised on stock bought for $135.4. I sold this tranche for $15.20, so net slight loss on exercised portion. Overall trades were slightly profitable.
IRA also had covered call $134 covered call. I previously rolled out Jan 19 $134 out 1 week for $2 credit. Net cost per share $130.25. Next week may be challenging as we appear headed lower short-term.

#ShortStrangles #CoveredCalls – There was a method to my madness…LOL Turning inverted strangle into a covered stock position.
Current position is 435/415 Inverted Strangle @ 19.35 credit.
Rolling the 415 call out a week to 420 for a small .35 debit and taking the stock at a 416 basis. Should work nicely with earnings the following week and bigly premium available.

Closed it for 5.50 on Wednesday.
Today, we get the dip I wish I’d waited for. But now looking at a run up into earnings, so I sold Jan 26th 180 put for 3.55.
Earnings are Jan 31st. I will look into strangles on the day before.
