HD – Close

BTC $HD 1.925 Puts @0.4 – was the put side of a #jadelizard #earnings trade which was STO @1.84 on 8/19/2019.

INTU closing

#Earnings It would have been a good exit right at the open, but now we’re getting a second shot as price retreats.

Sold to close in phases: .90, 1.20, then when I realized it could drop, I waited for 2.20 on the most recent batch. Now watching to see how much lower it will go for my final lots, driving the premium higher as it gets closer to flat-on-day.

#DoubleCalendar bought yesterday for 1.69.

SPLK Earnings

#Earnings #JadeLizards – Taking this off on the bounce for a small gain. Great premium so looking to re-establish a non-earnings Jade lizard now…
