Based on UP max only (+6.9%): 1176.12

NOTE: 5-day historical maximums are +5.7 and -9.9%. So LESS than the one day moves on both sides, meaning the big one day moves were somewhat retraced 5 days after earnings.

AMZN loss

#Earnings Bought to close $AMZN 2325/2320 put spreads for 4.70. Sold for 1.50 yesterday.

Finally, the market seems to be doing what it should have been doing for weeks… dropping. Of course it was right after I decided to take bullish earnings trades! At least I got out of TSLA, but saving a few pennies by dumping out before expiration on this one. Not sure if I’m going to roll or just accept the loss. Gotta deal with my threatened SPX puts for now.

#ShortPuts #Earnings – Hesitated posting this because it could be crazy. I’ve got a DITM covered call in this thing that’s going to need a pullback to help with the roll. What’s a great way to get a pullback? Add a (sort of) long position… 🙂 Closed a bunch of SPY this week so have some spare buying power but this does get me overweight in this ticker.

Going out to May monthly selling twice the expected move and down where my covered call got run over…
