I am in a similar situation: Rolled my deep ITM Jan BPS out to Nov '22 850/1050 . I wanted to keep them in the same year for tax purposes though. I've been playing around with moving them in to a sooner expiration but nothing meaningful has caught my eye so I'm just watching the theta decay on them for now.My BPS that i ended up rolling to Jan 24 are now OTM. Is anyone in the similar position? Is their an active trade i should be considering? or just wait until expiry?
Amazing that $300 million of market cap can move around in and out of TSLA so quickly. It's going to be interesting to see how we are 3 weeks from now.3 short weeks ago (pardon the pun) we were below $800.
Buy/Writes are really fun... as long as you have the cash or margin to hold the shares in a declining share price environment.
You can also capture more credit if you roll up and out if you get leap frogged.
Flip back a few pages, I asked the same thing and folks provided input.My BPS that i ended up rolling to Jan 24 are now OTM. Is anyone in the similar position? Is their an active trade i should be considering? or just wait until expiry?
Did the same this morning. A bit early, but 50% profit on CC's is fine when I suspect we'll be above my strike on Thurs. I'll just resell a higher yet still risky position and take the cash if it executes.Gotta love a down day like this. Those ITM calls sold yesterday are now ATM today. If this holds to end of week then I'll keep my shares and a $48 credit. As long as the share price continues at these very high levels (say 1050+) then I expect I'll continue to sell these really aggressive calls, at least with the subset of shares that I want to sell anyway. I'm keeping these open - they are ahead $23 right now but still have $25 left to earn. And hey these are shares that I mentally sold yesterday; maybe I'll get another chance to sell them next week!
The next CPI report is April 12th.Did the same this morning. A bit early, but 50% profit on CC's is fine when I suspect we'll be above my strike on Thurs. I'll just resell a higher yet still risky position and take the cash if it executes.
Lord knows MM's will rinse and repeat today's action when the Fed opens its mouth next Tues. Then I can rebuy shares or sell BPS. Tuesday, right?
Apologies for giving a disagree, but I think in this current macro environment we can't be confident about anything...Random trade report: flipped a 4/22 -1150cc to a 5/20 -990csp for a slight credit.
Reason: want to get rid of cc's since I expect upward pressure into split (at unknown times) and I feel by 4/22 we will be over 1150 for sure. Also I'm quite confident we won't be under 990 by 5/20.
Anecdotally I've noticed the last couple of months that my Fidelity provided news feed that is context sensitive to my investments has almost stopped providing Tesla, SpaceX, or Elon related news. It has been almost all macro and random business news entries for awhile.Apologies for giving a disagree, but I think in this current macro environment we can't be confident about anything...
I agree there are a lot of ducks aligned for Tesla, but if the last months have "convinced" me anything it is that Tesla, the company, doesn't have much bearing to the short-term share price, it's all about the options flows and macro-economics, fundamentals and company news after that
Sadly
On 3/14 I sold BPS 550/450 for this Friday 4/8 for $3.543 short weeks ago (pardon the pun) we were below $800.
I have some positions like that with similar caveats tied to them. I rolled them up but not out when we got to 1140 yesterday, so that I continue capturing some theta.I am reflecting on what would be a good moment to close my -p1050 15/7 I opened when the SP was 850 3 weeks ago. Either let them theta decay or close them now since they are already +55%. However it’s a roll from my underwater positions when the SP went to $700 on the Ukrainian war day. I’d need them to expire worthless to cover one of those contracts loss. I have myself some time for the SP to recover, which I was expecting over 6 months. I was wrong obviously.
