Relieved to see a big spike UP in this one, reverse of last quarter’s spike down. This should pay off holding the underwater position for three months. (sorry, @fuzzballl)

NUGT and DUST closures (+ one for FB)
#ContangoETFs Closed up a few with decent profit to clear the slate for new sales. Focussed mostly on short calls on both; puts riskier in these downward racing dogs.
BTC DUST June 9th 47 calls for .05. Sold for 1.25 on Apr 27th
BTC DUST June 16th 24/47 strangles for .65. Sold for 2.85 on Apr 26th
BTC NUGT June 16th 51 call for .16. Sold for 1.05 on May 17th
#Earnings #CoveredCalls #StockTrades
STO FB June 16th 150 call for 3.75. #Rolling for 100 shares I plan to keep longer term, as practice in managing covered calls on an up trending stock.
Goodbye PEP
#Earnings #StockTrades
Sold to close all PEP stock for 113.75. I don’t need this weighing me down if we’re going to have market volatility. Cost basis 113.20 from earnings #IronButterfly last month.
FB trades, continued
#Earnings #StockTrades #CoveredCalls
As per my previous post, more stock sold at 138.80, and BTC March 31st 140 call for .90 (sold for 1.40 on 2/22).
FB trades
#Earnings #CoveredCalls #StockTrades
With FB hitting all-time highs this morning, I first sold the April 28th 145 covered call for 2.00. I then put Trailing Stops on my stock position, at three levels: 2.00, 3.50, and 5.00 trails.
The 2.00 trail was hit, so sold one-third of the stock for 140.30. Cost basis 131.20.
MELI trade closed, FB stock sold
#Earnings Bought to close $MELI March 17th 180 puts for .50. Sold for 2.00 yesterday.
Also,
Sold to close $FB stock for 135.21. This is one-fourth of my position of my 13-month earnings trade. Cost basis 132.88 on this lot.
FB covered calls
#Earnings #StockTrades #CoveredCalls #Rolling
BTC FB Feb 24th 140 covered call for .04. Sold for 1.07 on Jan 13th.
STO FB Mar 31st 140 c0vered call for 1.40.
FB breaking out
#StockTrades #Earnings I am long stock from my year-long earnings trade.
Stock sold
#Earnings #StockTrades Sold more of my $SBUX stock, cost basis 56.75. Sold this morning at 57.05 and 57.36. Still have more on trailing stop.
SBUX, some stock sold
#Earnings #StockTrades Sold $SBUX stock for 56.80. This is slightly above breakeven for this lot. Putting various limits, trail stops, etc, on the rest. No too interested in holding long term, and covered call premium is too weak.
Was assigned the stock via earnings #IronButterfly… sold the long puts to reduce cost basis to 56.76.
AMZN stock sold
#Earnings #StockTrades Sold the $AMZN 810/840/870 #IronButterfly last Thursday for 26.10. Took assignment of the shares on Friday at 840.00. Put a 1.00 trailing stop on the stock today around 11am ET; just stopped out for 826.36. Profit on trade: $1,035
Thanks, @fuzzballl for the original trade idea!
FB covered call
#Earnings #StockTrades #CoveredCalls
This is an earnings trade that started in January 2016. I was assigned short stock at that time, held that most of the year (painfully), selling puts against it, then switched it to a long stock position in October. It is finally in profit territory above 133.00. I still like the stock long so I’m going to keep it as long as it holds up.
STO FB March 10th 140 call for .80

SBUX busted butterfly
#Earnings #IronButterfly #StockTrades Took a bullish shot on this one with the 58/60/62 IB for 1.47. I am planning to sell the long 58 puts at the open for around 2.00, leaving me short the naked 60 puts. This will total 3.47 in premium received, meaning my cost basis on the stock, when assigned tonight, will be 56.53. I am comfortable with that for hopefully a quick turnaround to sell the stock on a pop next week. If it drops further I can hold it through its dip until recovery. This company isn’t going anywhere.
PANW stock sold
#AfterHours #StockTrades #Earnings
Sold to Close $PANW stock for 146.52. Bought for 140.85 after their earnings announcement, after hours on Nov 21st. This was supposed to be a 1-hour to 1-day trade. But it decided to dip down below 124.00 before recovering.
RGLD covered calls
#Earnings #StockTrades #CoveredCalls
STO $RGLD Dec 16th 75 call for .90
STO $RGLD Jan 20th 77.5 call for 1.65
AAPL roll out
#StockTrades #AfterHours #CoveredCalls
STC $AAPL stock for 93.50. Bought for 99.00 after hours on earnings day. Played for a bounce but instead got a crater. This is half my position, rolling into an options strangle. Will sell put on down day, but for today…
STO $AAPL July 15th 95 call for 2.85. For the moment, this is covered because I have the other half of my stock. I anticipate this will be before their earnings date.
