Good bounce @ 138.80... For now :cool:

Do you think 25 and 26 options are at risk for early assignment? Holding June 26 250 -P, but still some extrinsic in it. Also June 24 220 -P which gets tricky, but fully covered by cash. May let it assign or roll it a few months or even years.

Probably nothing. Let's see if this gets reported as much as the "negatives". Holding my gun for now. Consider buying more TSLA and writing covered calls against them (B/W), but will wait until earnings to see what direction we are going.

In fact it amazes me as well, but could FSD, AI, Energy, Optimus,… already be priced in more than we think? Could WS understand that Tesla is somewhat transitioning and those other segments are growing more and more? Not saying we can’t get any lower, but 9 months ago we were banging 300s door...

Jan 2025 280 CC => June 180 CC for about 6 credit December 2025 250 -P => June 2026 250 -P for about 3 credit April 220 -P => June 220 -P for about 1.5 credit May buy more shares should we actually fill the 14X-gap and even roll in the June 180 CC in that case.

Maybe upgrades of the production line coming or Model Y facelift...

Got a longer term CC (2025-01) at 280 strike. Thinking rolling it forward to 180ish for June. Trimming output won't age well I guess, while in my opinion it isn't bad as it limits your cars in stock. No need to produce when there is no demand. As shareholders, of course, it can be considered bad...

I closed 03/29 215 CC last week for about .30 (sold for about 5). Keeping my hands of selling new CC until a decent leg up and the possibility to sell around the same strike for end of april expiry. Still holding 220 -P expiring 04/19. Looking to roll it further when we get higher. Rolling 2...

Also rolled 02/23 220 -P to 04/19 220 -P for 4.5. And rolled down 01/17 300 CC to 280 CC for 2.5ish.

Sold 03/28 215CC for 5. Wasn't expecting it to hit just yet cause it was 0.4 above the bid.

Yes, no problem trading other stocks of course, but I'd like this thread to concentrate on TSLA only.

Only Wednesday and premarket of course, but again you see how quickly things can reverse (if it holds...).

Those days... I started options with Palantir because you could do a lot without a lot of money :cool:. But a lack of experience made me panic when it tanked, while I should've been patient.

You're right rolling a bit further could give some extra premium and possibilities to roll back in should we get a reversal. In this case rolling to april may be worth it for the 220 -P. Time is on our side and, as we believe in the future of Tesla, we know stock will go up again somewhere. I...

Premiums are way lower indeed, but that's not strange when trading at a lower stock price and considering they were very high running into earnings.

The point is getting some income as well. The first option isn’t profitable at all right now as rolling a month seems about rolling for 0 premium. That’s why the second option seems the better one. I don’t mind selling calls a tad beneath cost base, cause you always have a possibility somewhere...

I wonder how long my 02/23 220 -P will hold. Could be assigned anytime now I guess?

Is this about China wholesale numbers? Didn’t see this coming anymore but yeah, it’s like that everytime 😊.

Watch out because we might never get there and since it’s an upward trend (thank god), of course the lowest point gets higher and higher when time goes further.

True :cool: Just closed the CC for 0.21, too low to keep it running and take the risk. Was sold for 5 before earnings, so gave a nice profit.

Guys, would you really want to be in the Meta-situation and see all your sold calls being toast? Of course I'd like to see Tesla higher than where we are now, but rather steadily higher than a squeeze. Considering closing 23/02 230CC as it's only worth 25 USD anymore. 23/02 220 -P is running...

Couldn’t that mean material news is coming?

Red macro, green TSLA, but let's not be too hopeful yet ;)

Did you take a look what happened 1/2/3 month(s) later? I wouldn't panic right now if your -p is in trouble. Roll it a month and see what happens. Of course, it's easy to say when it's fully backed by cash, assignment is not that bad in that case. You can always sell the assigned shares and sell...

Yes. It’s all about 2025. We all knew that here.

I'm consistently rolling my positions to the last week of the next month since May because it gives me a more relax feeling than doing weeklies. It also gives more opportunities because the time span is longer. Sometimes I roll 2 weeks before expiry, because there's a good option. Actually it's...

Everything is possible, but why would Reuters want to soften the blow? I read a lot of institutionals were/are buying now and retail is scared. I'd rather think about that. Missed the opportunity twice to roll my positions to 02/23 when we went a bit higher last two days, so hoping for a...

Just meant if I rolled my contracts at 212 my options were worse than doing it right now ;)

Doing nothing like @Max Plaid said seemed to be the right thing to do right now.

That would be quite something :cool:.

Actually looks worse than it is. The same manufactorer's Take Off is a different thing . On topic: premarket doesn't look that bad considering macro, but will keep my eye on my contracts expiring 01/26. 240 CC will be closable. 220 put will need management, so looking to roll that one month for...

Short term positions right now are: - 01/26 240 -C - 01/26 220 -P Sold call is a actually a roll from the end of 23 which netted me about 7. I sold the put last week for about 5. Probably not waiting until earnings week to take a new position for february. As it stands right now, I would keep...

Actually I don't care and not caring helped me compounding monthly premium. Stocks go up and down. When we were at 280/290, I still had the 225 contract and look what I was able to do with it. A lost position is only lost when you react emotionally. At 290 (almost) everybody thought we were...

Just rolled 235 CC for next week to 12/29 240 CC for about 6. Monthly strategy keeps paying off in this case. For those interested: 5/30: Sold 220 CC 06/09 for 2.01 Cash position: +201 6/07: Rolled 220 CC 06/09 to 225 CC 06/16 for +0.24 Cash position: +225 6/12: Rolled 225 CC 06/16 to 225 CC...

Well eh... 🤣 .

Just decided to roll 230CC for Friday to 235CC 11/24 for 4.5. So 5 dollar strike improvement and 4.5 premium. A bit less than monthly goal, but the combination of both pulled the trigger. Reasoning behind this: If the stock goes down after earnings, I shouldn’t have done this obv. But it might...

I was in the same position and switched to monthly options. Way less time-consuming!

Yeah, and after market right back to 251…

Holding 230 CC for next week. Still some time value in it. Could roll one month now for more than my monthly goal, but as we are approaching earnings I tend to wait until thursday to see how the stock reacts, unless we’re getting in a downtrend now and going red for the next three days. In that...

He indeed never said we were going to 200 just like that without going up first or what so ever... It's not because he says he sees Tesla touching 200 this year, it'll happen this week. If you look at the bigger picture (monthly chart), reaching 260ish and going back down from there is just...

Great! I suppose you won't be disappointed when (if) they ever get assigned, because you collected premiums rolling the contract a few times. Did you roll them one month?

Well, it's not easy to say when to roll. When I got deep ITM with 225CC I already said goodbye to those shares (in my mind). But then the stock went down and gave me more possibilities. So when deep ITM I'd wait as long as possible (as long as there's time value in it) to see whether stock goes...

Actually I'm selling monthlies now (ie rolling a contract every month, because still ITM) with a target of 6/contract. Has been working since june when the steep rise caught me and weekly rolling wasn't worth it anymore. Also anticipating SP coming back down which happened (that gave me the...

Would be very careful with other stocks if you don't follow the company/stock like you follow Tesla. There is a lot of information everyday about Tesla (company and stock). Of course you make your own decisions, but that information can help. ATM Nvidia has a good flow and excellent prospects...

Just (before 9/15 225 CC got ITM again) rolled that contract to 10/20 230 CC for 5 dollar strike improvement + 600 premium. Letting the stock do its thing now for a few weeks, unless we see a deep decline.

I had the same with 225 CC. Never had the idea it would get OTM again, so rolled it about monthly since june for about 1500 premium in total now. No worries letting them go if that was the case, because premium came in on a regular base. Now we’re back OTM more possibilities are present, but...

Rolled back in a 380 CC for 2025/01 to 2024/06 280 CC for a bit of credit. Should we bounce back higher, there should be enough options to roll higher and further in time (2026 options coming in a few weeks as well). Letting 09/15 225 CC run for a bit. Expiring OTM would be a pleasant surprise.

Didn’t think my 225CC got a chance anymore and look where we are now. Too bad it’s still about 9 and 9/15 expiry. Maybe I’ll roll it to the end of the month for some credit. Keeping the strike as it’s a bit above cost base. 380CC for january 25 is something to think about. Maybe I’ll roll it a...

Closing his sold calls as we speak :cool:

Eventually decided to roll 225CC for today to 9/15 for 5.
