Probably a pop because of the India tariffs news

Welp, that was a sharp drop. Anyone buying LEAPs yet?

Well this is humbling

I lost about half of my shares in 2022 thanks to selling too many puts into... well we all know what happened. I rode a bunch of LEAPs back up to recent highs and gradually sold them over the last few weeks. Currently I'm in 50% in cash, 50% in TSLA and waiting to get back all in and, with some...

Pre-market up 5.3%, this could become an interesting day

If the 1 sept highland reveal rumors are true, us folks with ITM -CCs might be in (more) trouble Contemplating closing the position.

You're welcome, I had been sitting on my hands for three weeks and just sold a bunch of $255 weekly calls so it started ripping

You are right. Maybe optionsprofitcalculator displayed invalid pricing data before the market opened? Or I must have clicked on the wrong expiry date. So it was too good to be true. I'm not sure if 2x leverage is worth the risk and mental strain.

I'm considering leveraging up by swapping most of my core shares for LEAPs at this point. I'm eyeing the 19th Dec 2025 $165 calls (delta of 8.09 at the moment). My rationale: - share price is relatively low - I expect share price to reach at least $300 again somewhere the next years - IV is...

I don't know. TL0 (I know, lower volume) was basically flat on the day.

Anyone buying protective puts for next week? e.g. the July 14th P200

Closed my -C290 June 23 positions for a 80% loss...

I don't know. Locking up shares for a whole year for just $500 per contract? I mean, next week's 290s are ~$1.45 and that might be considered pretty safe.

Right now I would not be surprised if we end this week very close to 255.

Where is your god now, technical analysts? ;) Glad I closed my -230Cs yesterday on a hunch, for a small loss. Have a bunch of -255Cs open for next week. Not sure how I feel about those. As we say in Dutch: Luxury problems!

Closed -c200 out as well. I hope I won't regret it. Not rolling for now. Edit: opened -p200 position for next week.

My money is on 200

BTC'd those $220CCs @ $0.50 for a nice 66% same day profit. Might re-open later.

Or he sold puts instead

Copied that trade (@ $1.45). Also have $200CCs open with the same DTE. Hoping for a good moment to roll or close those.

Happy to see my shareholder meeting $140 protective puts are expiring worthless today.

After closing out -185C for this Friday for a small profit on Wednesday, I opened a few -200C for next week. I would not be too sad to have these shares called away. Also I would like to add my few cents to the Delta Discussion, @Vova: From the book "Trading Options Greeks" by Dan Passarelli...

BTC -185C @ $1.20 (10% profit)

Same here. Currently holding -185C for this Friday and -170P for June 2nd.

I'm noticing lots of bullish sentiment all around. So I have no worries about my -C185s for Friday 😅

I just checked out TSLL and it appears to have an expense ratio of 1.08%! It would be a lot cheaper to use options if you want some leverage.

So... are we all selling puts or calls into investor day? 😅 Edit: I meant annual shareholder meeting

Great idea selling those May 19 C182.5s yesterday :rolleyes:

Seems to me that geo fencing would be fairly easy to implement, just monitor GPS location and disable FSD outside fence borders.

- STO 5x May12'23 180 call @ $0.75 - BTC 1x May12'23 155 put @ $0.95 (85% profit)

It appears that max pain is 170 for the week.

Do we dare to say 160 might be the bottom? 😅 If I understand the alternative uptick rule correctly, shorting under the last shorting price of yesterday is forbidden today, so that could have impact on the price today.

Half of my position is in Jan17'25 LEAPs with 150 strike. I plan to aggressively sell weekly/biweekly calls against those. Not sure yet what I'll do when they are going to be assigned - either roll, or BTC and sell LEAPs ("DIY assignment"). Of course wheeling is not possible with LEAPs, so that...

Because of? Bounces?

> STO -P 175 for next week (into the rumour) Not afraid of a <175 share price end of week? I'm sitting on my hands until Thursday, I think.

People in r/thetagang have been wheeling TSLA:

Interesting, I just sold -P for META Apr 14th since I think the stock is undervalued. But that is not a discussion for this topic. :) I rolled TSLA 190 -P to Apr 14th to 185 -P, hoping stock will recover heading into earnings.

Sorry, that was a typo. I meant the 180P for April 6th. I've corrected it.

Sold one 04/06 $180P for $4.95. Living on the edge.

For European customers they have "branches" in Luxembourg and Ireland

Closed my 3 Feb 190ccs for a total loss of $7489 :rolleyes:

Not rolling 3 Feb 190 CCs for half of my shares yet... there's still a change the week ends < 190 🤞

FOMC meeting is in 2 days though

Something I've been trying lately with some success: for CCs and CSPs I'll set a STP buy order @ 2x opening price. My current position is that I'd rather lose last week's profit, than ever getting in the position again of having far ITM positions. Do you folks ever use automatic stops (instead...

STO 10x Jan27'23 160 CC @ 0.95 (planning to close before earnings)

Trailing? As you know, time-wise, Germany is ahead of USA ;)

Thanks for writing this, it feels very familiar. I'm down to a portfolio of about $150k from a peak of $800k, which is/was a HUGE amount for me. Could have paid off my mortgage or retired early. I'm frigging stressed every day, have trouble sleeping, and I feel mad at myself and stupid for not...

Check again... -3.5% just now

So where is Tesla hiding this inventory? As in, physically?

Didn't they get the note? We've already capitulated! No need to go lower!
