Separate names with a comma.
That doesn't explain the weight loss or the range going down on the X. But, of course, it's still speculation. :)
The odd thing to me is how they claim the pack will be 50-200 kWh and will enable estimated ranges of 400 miles or more. Am I right that the...
So let me ask this on the SBLOCs... let's say you can borrow 50% and you have an account that's 1M TSLA. If you borrow 500K, when do you get the...
Well, when I look here: Stock Option Max Pain It shows calls outnumbering puts starting at $850. That number seems like a black hole lately,...
I don't know about IBKR in particular, but in general with a SBLOC you can do whatever you want except buy securities or pay off margin or the...
I believe this list demonstrates the issue I was trying to point out above... E*Trade gives that 3.843% rate for a $300K portfolio, whereas...
For what it's worth, I looked at ETrade and TD rate pages side by side... ETrade gives rates based on the value of the portfolio, whereas TD...
Seriously! Let’s turn the question around: if Tesla delivers on all their battery day promises, and yet the market is nevertheless swamped with...
I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear; it’s not that I don’t have sold options open, it’s that if the price stays in the zone and I do nothing, they’ll be...
Curious as to what you all think... are we heading for another week of Friday $850? This morning with the BTC excitement I thought maybe not,...
You know, we're acting like Tesla invented this, but for what it's worth, Progressive has had a program like this that changes your rates based on...
Well, I had a limit sell order open on Friday afternoon for a 2/12 $830 put and it looked like there was no way it was going to fill. And then...
Well, if the whole principle is that Tesla knows what kind of driver you are, whereas a regular insurance company just treats you as pretty much...
If I were the OEM, I would not be eager to give up on getting a copy of that "tons of data," because that basically commits them to using the...
So, any thoughts on "wheeling" with the super-low IV? According to the Papafox reports, it's in the bottom 10% of historical values right now....
Isn't GM 44% of the #2 entry there? I guess that makes them a virtual #4?
Well, that didn't take long... GM's newest car is a V-8 Cadillac sedan that tops 200 mph Buried at the end: even the automotive press has moved...
I understand people are using solid state batteries already for very small devices. What do you suppose the actual cost of an automotive sized...
Well, having sold a Feb 5 $840 put last week, I'm a lot happier this evening than I was Friday evening. I didn't think Tesla was worth any less,...
You know, I'd be surprised if this car has great performance, range, charging capability, and most especially software. But god bless Toyota for...
To Model Y production from Giga Berlin, until their own cell production is ramped.
Very impressive. How many puts/calls do you have open at the same time for that kind of income?
I mean, I know we all hate shorts, but on the whole I'm not sure this is a good development. If a Reddit forum can throw a major axe into Wall...
Yes, 371 to 360... Curious.
That steering wheel...
I have little enough experience that I'm not sure I'd listen to me, but with that said... I prefer selling puts (with otherwise unused margin) to...
LOL. I bought back a put pretty near the high, like $899. Then I cleverly sold a new one on the dip... that is, when it dipped back to like...
Well, if I look at the "margin calculator" -- while it shows a whole variety of fields none of which are just plain "margin", the "margin...
That sounds awesome... the only thing is, this week has been pretty flat and with the earnings call next week I sort of expect volatility to go up...
My concern with calls right now is that I think there's a non-trivial chance the stock jumps reasonably quickly to $950 after the earnings call....
You know, I've always been kind of assuming that Chinese brands wouldn't make it outside of China -- for the most part wouldn't even try. If they...
Well, I'm pretty bullish on the stock, and that's why I'm selling puts against it. It is true that I've had to buy puts back early when either I...
That's fair. All the same, look at the growth in production from Q2 to Q3 and then again from Q3 to Q4 -- I can easily believe there are some...
Or, there's the option that Elon actually brought up, namely sending the 4680s to Berlin for initial Model Y production there until local battery...
On further inspection, I think this is the difference between "margin" and "portfolio margin". I have regular margin and Level 2 options trading,...
Just as a data point, I asked the Princeton, NJ showroom for a model X test drive and they said they don’t have one and don’t expect to until March...
ETrade doesn’t let me sell a put if I don’t have enough margin to exercise it
You’ve got guts! I’ve seen enough dips in the last hour or two of trading — especially on Friday — that I’d plan to close well before that.
Yes... one of those hard-won lessons. I don't remember why I didn't order during a dip on Friday, but maybe because I was waiting to close out a...
To add to this... depending on the strike, another consideration on paying the fee to close rather than letting it expire is that the stock price...
If I were Audi, I'd do the same... send cars to where Tesla isn't. After all, if you sent them to the same places, you'd have to, you know,...
LOL, Tesla volatility... So last Friday, I recalled reading all these posts about selling a weekly put on Friday to capture the weekend time...
In the last 18 months Tesla has got to be up over 10x. So just as a thought exercise, why don’t you repeat your analysis for an expiration share...
Odd to call it confirmed when the original report has been revised to withdraw the details including time frame, location, and scale. So the best...
Well, I guess then I have the super nerdy craft of 3D-printing and then painting terrain for your miniatures. Let's not even get started on how...
Well, again, I’m selling puts as a side effect of having margin that I don’t want to use. If the shares get assigned, I don’t want to keep those...
Don't panic! You have time yet. If you read up the thread a bit, you will see many people discussing rolling the call (effectively, buying your...
Ha! Forget buying other automakers to shut them down... Elon can personally buy EXXONMOBIL and shut it down!
For my part, the large gain in TSLA and insight here has resulted in me having access to enough margin to sell puts. I can sell puts for income...
I can't really pretend to understand the market and how it's responding to current events, but... The TSLA I know and love should end the week at...
