you could buy some back (at a premium) and sell a higher upside call. Minimize your risk exposure and cut some of the cost to buy back. Depending on when you sold the 295$ weeklies, they couldn't have been that much. but yeah, they are up 20X today!. It's a bitter pill to swallow but if you want to hold the shares that's what it takes.So Elon pulling earnings forward a week has caught me in the unfortunate position of having sold 295 weeklies on my 4000 shares this week for some cash flow.. not expecting any runup this early (wasnt going to take any covered call risks on the actual earnings report). Anyone have suggestions for recovering from this predicament? Im going to be kicking myself pretty hard for holding steady the last 8 years and blowing all the gains missing this earnings ==(
Frankly, depending on where your adjusted share price is, I'd just let them call them if they want at 295$. Save the power, take your profits on the shares and re-deploy later. I will still say, it's not all up from here. We could certainly be there or lower by Friday. Nobody really knows at this point-well ELON probably knows.
