SPOT earnings analysis

#Earnings I usually don’t take trades on Monday morning earnings, but this stock has excellent premium and thus far, modest moves. However, its history is short so it could surprise us. That is reflected in the expected move, which is much higher than its historical average move.

Profits in the end

#Earnings #DoubleCalendar

Was able to turn $NOC double calendar into a profitable trade by taking assignment and then legging out. Sold the long puts for 16.00 at the open, then closed stock for 280.50.

And on one account that I hadn’t noticed was still open last night on $MMM, did the same thing… sold long puts for 30.00 and covered stock for 191.00, netting 1.00 on the close and a tiny profit on the trade. Better than a loss! And for once, I played the swings right… usually a weakness for me.

FFIV closed

#Earnings Sold to Close $FFIV Apr26/Mar03 165 #DoubleCalendar for 2.10. Bought yesterday for .81 and .82.

Had to pay .02 to close the $MMM 220 put calendar to avoid assignment. Dub Cal bought yesterday for .904

AMZN IB

#Earnings Sold to Open $AMZN Apr 26th 1885/1915/1945 #IronButterfly for 28.15. Risking 1.85 to make hopefully a lot.

#doublecalendar, #longstraddle, #shortstrangles

SBUX Dub Cal

#Earnings Bought to Open $SBUX Apr26/May03 77 #DoubleCalendar for .30. Partial fill so far. This is a cheap play, must stay within its average range, or at least drift through it tomorrow. I placed a double-sized because of the low cost.

It is the tightest Bid/Ask I have seen on a double calendar, so very liquid.

Dub cal updates

#Earnings
#EarlyAssignment last night on just one (1) $NOC Apr 26th 295 put, part of my #DoubleCalendar. Sold the long May 2nd put for 16.00, and waited through the dip to sell stock for 280.50, netting 1.50 for a profit of .43. The rest of my position will probably not fare so well, but I’ll probably hold again tonight and may be assigned more. (Dub cal bought Wednesday for 1.07.

$MMM has made its biggest earnings drop in at least 17 years, which is as far back as I have records. Nothing you can do about that…. it was the perfect candidate for this strategy, but even “perfect” is no guarantee. I will likely close put side today and not risk early assignment. (bought yesterday for .91)

$FFIV jumped around the center strike in the morning but I got no fill. Now looking for it to recover. (bought yesterday for .81)

Not seeing any great candidates for dub cals today. Maybe $SBUX. Looking at a low risk #IronButterfly on $AMZN.

#earnings #rolling TWTR

Yesterday sold May 17, 30/39 strangle. Following a TastyTrade adjustment, rolled May 17, 30 put to a 39 put for 1.11, giving me a 39 straddle. I’ve taken in about $207 in premium.

#earnings WHR TWTR Yesterday sold…

#earnings WHR TWTR

Yesterday sold May 17, 120/160 strangle for 1.42, bought this morning for .40. TWTR not cooperating-yet.

LMT and TWTR closing

#Earnings Closed $LMT Apr26/May03 315 #DoubleCalendar for .95 and 1.00. Bought for .765 yesterday. The gap up is a bit much for a calendar to handle, but these higher priced stocks mean higher priced options and more flexibility to close. I was probably too early, but I have been bitten before by waiting

Closed partial of $TWTR Apr 26th long 34 calls for 4.00, 4.40, and 4.50. #LongStraddle bought yesterday for 3.64. Looks like it’s doing its usual thing, gap and run, so I’ll wait to close the rest.

TWTR straddle

#Earnings Bought to Open $TWTR Apr 26th 34 #LongStraddle for 3.64.

Stock has an average move of 12.1%. I need a 10.7% move to hit breakeven points. Only 4 out of the last 12 moves were less than 10%.

SKX partial closed

#Earnings Closed $SKX 35 long puts for 5.00. Only got a couple closed before the crash. Now price has recovered some, so I will wait to see if it falls again. Otherwise, i’ll be disputing this and asking for at least 4.90. (Strangles bought for 4.15 yesterday).

Order in to close $AXP for 1.30. I show mid price as .90 currently.

$HON too high to close now, may take loss

$IBM also out of range.
