    Tesla app version 4.0.0 has app re design for both car and energy

    As I mentioned, my app is up to date. I just checked again, no update available. My wife doesn't have it either after updating app, we both have iPhone XR.

    Tesla app version 4.0.0 has app re design for both car and energy

    why am I not getting the new app? I have an Iphone XR, software up to date and so is the app. My daughter got the new app this morning without even updating her app. Am I missing something? Weird?

    Wheel powder coat

    Wanting to get wheels on new model 3 powder coated, anyone know of a shop in Northern California Central Valley that does this? Issue is having extra wheels, I don’t have any and this is a surprise for my daughter so need to be able to drop car off and have them do everything. Advice welcomed.

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    everyone has different risk/reward and goals with their account. I disagree with you on the covered call. Some of us have big enough accounts that just doing low risk covered calls allows us to be retired. I'm 47, not complaining. I have ZERO interest in trying to guess direction, none...

    selling that DITM put is the exact same position as owning shares and selling the same strike covered call as the put. I know you know this, just pointing it out to others.

    Agree on this. I use to be terrified to sell calls on earnings but with the IV crush the next day you have to at least sell some really far OTM options. The chances of those going in the money before market open the next morning when you can adjust if necessary is darn near zero. The nice...

    I decided to roll out and up one week to 870's, decided better safe than sorry and it's only a week in the big picture of things which is nothing when playing with 7 figures.

    similar to what I do, I don't analyze much I just sell calls at a comfortable distance knowing I can always adjust out and up. Does sitting and waiting for the perfect time to sell calls beat just always being short calls and having that theta burn 24/7 365? I don't know, but I prefer to not...

    main reason I sell calls further OTM is to deal with less fingernail biting. I suspect due to having to make far less adjustments that it might be more profitable as well.

    So Max Pain theory. Anyone run the numbers on this to see if it holds up?

    What's the theory on the "call walls"? MM's are hedging and would liquidate their positions at that number to stay delta neutral?

    excluding wanting to avoid earnings weeks or known catalysts, I look at the total theta of my position. When my short calls have dropped down under 1.00 value, I start looking to roll. This is part of why I mostly trade 2-3 weeks out options instead of weeklies, theta decay is more consistent...

    I accept that it "could" happen but I sell CC's in a calculated way to make the chances of that happening extremely small. I also know what number in the next 1-2 years I wouldn't have a problem letting them go for, and I know I can adjust out to that number. I look at the premium from the...

    I see a lot of people afraid of losing their shares when selling CC. I initially felt the same but since I play it on the safer side (15% OTM) and adjust early, not wait until my calls are ATM then hope, I have near zero worry I'll lose shares. I can adjust out and up to the point my shares...
