So, as expected, I had a pile (a big pile at that) of AAPL -p150's assigned this morning $145.50 net including the put premium) - obviously this was going to happen, but there's always a finite chance and hope, however small, that they don't assign, but meh, they sure did! So happy to see the +ve action, although AAPL was nowhere near as good as TSLA's day, in any case, I could sell some 7/1 -c140's for decent $ and don't care if they exercise either, would be a small net loss, but nowhere near the realised loss I would have taken had I close out the puts on Friday - in principle I can hold those AAPL shares for years, as long as I can generate some returns in the interim, but would prefer to offload them sooner rather than later and return to concentrating on TSLA
Closed the GOOGL 4x -p2120's I sold Friday, was trying to roll them up at the death to -p2200's to straddle the -c2200's that are ITM, but broker logged me out of my session, for no obvious reason, and I lost the chance - could play in my favour if we get a red start tomorrow, or the opposite...
On the subject of straddles, $TSLA seemed to get stuck on $725, so I decided to sell 2x -p725/-c725 for the very juicy $25 per contract on both sides, will be interesting to see how that plays out, seemed a reasonable risk/reward for $10k
And finally I put in what I thought was an stupidly high 20x ARKK -c42 limit at $1.2, which happened to trigger - these ARKK call sells are modest amounts, $1 - $3k per week, but given that the underlying capital is 20x Jan 24 c30's, which I bought at $18, it's 5-8% roic, which is an excellent return on a very low risk, IMO
