A significant move in either direction, especially sustained and significant moves, are where this wheel strategy performs least well, while a sideways trading pattern is where it performs the best. I've decided to 'get out of the way' to the upside by not selling calls (covered calls).
I've also realized that I'm earning plenty from selling puts, again with the downside that I buy additional shares at a discount (which I'm entirely willing to do).
I'm pretty strongly in the camp where the point of view is that there IS such a thing as enough, and I have little desire to try to pile up the gains as high as I can push them.
And no, I don't go all in on a move up. Alternatively you can view my portfolio as all-in, as I'm about 15% real estate (investment trust), and 50/50 on the rest as Tesla plus cash. I'm pretty comfortable today with the idea that my only meaningful investment is TSLA, which seems like a reasonable working definition of all-in (and therefore, a state I've been in for nearly a year, and don't plan to change any time soon).

I can't believe Trevor is baiting Elon over Cybertruck. Early life-lesson everyone should learn: Never go out of your way to make an enemy.

Out of interest, I just grabbed the 5 yr vol chart and overlaid the SP for the same period ..

Yes, i know someone who got filled with $3mm but that was one of the smaller ones...SpaceX is their highest demand offering when it comes up so it fills quick and has higher minimums typically

Thank you for this. Something is clearly brewing in there...
On this day in history,
- 1914 1st electric traffic light installed in the USA on the corner of East 105th Street and Euclid Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio
- 1926 Houdini stays in a coffin under water for 1½ hrs before escaping. Maybe these are signs we will break free

That Tweet is from November last year. Trevor isn't even the CEO any more.
Edit: though the new CEO is the one with the 'doorstop; comment...
I'm sure that Elon does not have the time to consider having "enemies". Besides they are always in the rear view mirror and Elon only goes forward at an increasing rate.
So yer the guy putting pennies out in front of the steamroller?!
Cheers!
Picked 2,500,000 pennies for Aug CC's (& also closed early), tracking for at least another 2,500,000 pennies for Sept CC.s
I love picking pennies
I'll answer this, if I may... No, not at all, because I have a core share account, which is up a whopping 10x on my original investment in 2016 and roughly 8x based on my average buying price - I never sell the shares, I add to them when I can.
However, I have a "play" account, which is a separate legal entity - as it's registered to my company - and this is up, 120x since last September, by trading - options, day-trading, LEAPS. Has been huge fun and a total game-changer for me.
So you can play both and win big, very big indeed.
Of course it helps having a stonk that generally just goes up, quickly, but I also made a hell of a lot when it was trading sideways, like now. It's perfect for selling weeklies.
Damn, didn't realise Autopilot was *that* good!
Screw this... manipulation is much more pleasant, with... a good beer! Cheers!!
