    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    It may come back to haunt me, but I'm selling very aggressive CC's. I sold 165 yesterday at the open and then more 167. I've now rolled 175 and 170 CC's for this week to 155 and 150 and rolled July 225 calls to Friday 160 calls. I believe certainty is the enemy of wisdom and sadly, I think Elon...

    I sold 165 and 167.5 for this week. I had some July calls I moved up to 167.5. I’m sitting on 170, 175, 180 calls for this week and 200 calls for May 3rd. That was me following dl003 last week or two weeks ago. I’ve cleared out about 25 long dated calls from this week, out to July. I have 16...

    I'm with Mr Plaid on this take. I sold 165 calls for this week at 5.70 this morning. I was thinking of buying July 140 puts, but at 5.75, it seems a bit rich, I'm better off selling more aggressive calls, for my risk preferences anyhow. The layoff thing would be definitely a bad sign. When...

    I see these charts and I almost think I should have sold TSLA at 400 and bought Nvidia.

    I guess my 170 calls are safe. Who knew the next catalyst would be sending us to 144 sooner than expected. Locally, my Tesla lot is packed as never before. In the past there was usually a lot of cars backed into the spots facing the street. These would have temp plates and were ready to be...

    Likely false, if so, good chance to sell puts. If true, who knows. It's been Elon's white whale for 8 years. A robotaxi just seems legally and logistically some time out there. Door handles that anyone can use? Is it legal everywhere? Do they have the web applications and infrastructure to make...

    My 170's for next week was me rolling July 19 230 calls down to April 12 170. I've had long dated calls forever and trying to clear these out, during what I expect to be bearish span of time. I hope the 144 gap is our bear case, but if we break that, there is probably nothing between us an 100...

    I sold 180 calls near the high and bought them back near the close. Small trade, but aside from licensing FSD to F or GM, I don't see any short term catalyst to bump us up before Q2 P&D. Wish I sold 4/12 CC's yesterday, too easy to think these little pushes are the start of a rally, but I would...

    Always interesting to read everyone's style on the thread, so many approaches. Surprising strong up most of the day and then revert at the end. I don't think the time traveller called the regression back to 171. I sold some 4/5 180 CC's for .61, got a little nervous but held out to buy back...

    I'm disappointed my 155CC didn't role on Friday. I caught it yesterday and didn't resell it, figuring perhaps the bad numbers were baked in. I hate selling a lot of CC's while we are falling, after getting burned when we closed in on 100 and had to roll calls out two years. I hope 144 is as bad...

    There are probably a 100 of them at my local sales lot. When the lot us full and cars are ready for sales, the backend faces the street with temp plates ready to go. Lately, it is mostly the front end I'm seeing.

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    Nice, I closed 200 CC's for Friday. I'm sure they are safe, but I'm getting out of the way. I still expect a drop and this may be the path to 144 this week, before rebounding on FSD news, Cyber ramping and earnings results that might beat with some help from Tesla Energy storage. I still have...

    I solidly prefer the less risk and occasional small gamble. I got too confident before the Twitter debacle and lost on puts and calls on the run up and the crash down.

    Maybe you should change your handle to BorntoFlyCloseto the Sun. I just rolled 185cc to 190 for next week. I think P&D will send us back down for another beating. Who knows, could be priced in already.

    I dream about going to the stockholders call and asking Elon how he gets feedback in the company. I feel that anyone with enough gravitas to call him out on bullshit is gone and the people close to him are toadys and leaches. On the bright side, FSD may really be a year away, battery storage...
