    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2014

    I believe we should see some resistance at 200$, however, it won't be too much. We probably do need a catalyst to stay above 200$, and that is going to be the shorts covering - with the margin calls. What r some options strategies you guys r thinking of for tomorrow? I have sold all calls I...

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2014

    If TESLA is indeed going to decide on the timing of NHTSA news, then I think it will happen early next week as to keep the momentum in stock before the earnings release the following week, plus without knowing job data it wouldn't make sense to release a big catalyst - just cuz market sentiment...

    Not sure who else is still in kNDI, but I have been in it. With the recent news, and high short interest, what do you all think? I see at least 15$ a share by end of the week.

    Which brokers do you guys use to trade options to keep transaction fees low? I am using Schwab and it's ~10$ Per transaction, which seems a little high.

    Haha, yes, July 2014, ITM strike of 3.50$, 2.15$ premium. If I choose to exercise them to own the stocks and later decide to sell the stocks- are taxes calculated at profits starting from 3.50$ or premium is subtracted from net gain?

    Yes, I get more buying power since it's all mainly time value here. I am long on RAD and I want to get more stocks but capital restrained so getting these options seems like a great value to me. I bought a couple of July, 14s.

    Newbie Options Trading

    Yes, seems like a good value compared to the stock. I guess, my question is why should I choose an option with high premium and in the money strike price, vs low premium and out the money strike, if the total value is the same? Ex. Premium 2$ strike 3.50 = 5.50 total price, vs premium 0.50 +...

    RAD had a call with strike of 3.50, premium 2$ and the stock trades at 5.28 right now, exp July 2014. What r the downsides/upside of getting this option vs lets say an option with 4$ strike, and 1.50 premium with same exp? I wonder why such low time value for an ITM call?

    Newbie Options Trading

    Hi guys, I just got approved for options trading. Question: Is there a rational to not get a call option at a high premium but in the money, if the total price (strike+premium) is almost the same as the stock price? Ex. Strike of 3.50, premium 2$ and stock trades at 5.40... To me, this...
