Buying calls/LEAPS here or too early?
If you don't think that's a big bounce, you should see what's gonna happen if it's rejected at 240.A big bounce back to two weeks ago?

Please rename your handle to @nostrdamus.
Closed out my crap puts from friday for 100% gain. Small profit but I'll take it.
Bought some Jan 24 $230 strike calls, maybe jumped the gun early. D'oh!
Thanks @dl003 for all the helpful info!
I don't buy leap calls. If I buy calls, it's gonna be weekly for optimal returns, according to the chart.
Closed my p160's 11/17 with about 80% profit. A pity it's just a few quarters.
A bigger bounce that somehow doesn't pass through 240? A quantum bounce as it were?
For clarity, I was expressing my internal mind state that returning to 10 days ago would be a big improvement.
A bounce to 240 after a missed P&D & missed ER & gloomy outlook? Yeah that's big.
Please tell me when to buy puts for a $69 strike price
BTC 60x -c220 @0.35 (net +$4.75) -> ready to double-dip or deploy next week
120x -p220 still in play for this week, somewhat, uhm dITM, but written against 200x March -p200 and/or 20x Dec -p270, so no stress there, just irritating
Current thinking is for 20x 3:1 -220 straddle for next week and roll the other 100x -p220's down to -p215, will see how things evolve
Easy escape for these -p is to double them up and roll down to ATM, which breaks-even, and would be very profitable if we traded sideways for a while, but then loses all the downside insurance, so trying to avoid that for the moment

Just trying to be objective here:
PE ratio increasing
Lower margins
Buyers having troubles accessing credits
VS
GM, Honda, Toyota, Ford delaying
Their EV targets because of prices making it unprofitable
Do we have to adjust the TSLA growth story and Price Target in the long term or you guys are all staying Permabulls in the long term. Have you readjusted the TSLA thesis. Trying to see if selecting a Jan2026 300 strike is smart or I should adjust.

Considering Tesla energy, licensing/selling supercharger hardware, use of charging infrastructure, eventual FSD... how could we be anything but permabulls? Long-term, that is. We're all riding the eternal Macro stock-market rodeo while TSLA is doing it's thing.
Re-read your post; yes indeed, jan 2025 Strike $300's are exactly what I'm bidding on around TSLA SP $185; am I being too greedy??
Disclaimer- I hardly know what I'm doing compared to most of the leading comtributors here, take all I say with a huge grain of salt.

I aspired to be a big dog like Max Plaid someday
Little dog me was planning to buy put during the morning false bounce but got too busy with work.
Guess we are anticipating bottom this week?
If TSLA couldn't weather a recession and come out ahead, why would anyone invest in it in the first place? Why change thesis now?
This is not TSLA specific, there appear to be some random prints on a bunch of different stocks. It's weird. NVDA for example never went to 422.82
