    Before market close today I closed my -175P for 0.01 after a nice $4 profit. For next week I sold -180P for almost $5. These are for shares I've been trying to get back since the ER. I have now made enough premium that if they get assigned at 180, I will have made $7.5 in profit (so if you don't...

    My friend order his FS months ago and still no VIN. I know people that reserved years ago and still don't have an invite. I think they would be crazy to stop FS until every person on the reservation list has received an invite.

    The only good thing I got out of Elon's talk at the meeting is how massive the megapack ramp is, and they are building a new factory in China that he didn't talk about. I don't think we break 200 before the end of the month, and I'm predicting Red tomorrow. There might be a slight rally around...

    While their maybe a few people dumb enough to buy an inferior car because they don't like the CEO of Tesla, and instead buy a car from companies that cheat on their emissions, their crash tests, or lobby to sell more ICE, and whose actions literally KILL people (you have to people a special kind...

    So I bought those after Monday's drop expecting a rebound on Tuesday. Instead we went Red on Tuesday and those calls were at an even bigger loss. So when they went a little Green yesterday I sold them for a tiny profit. I didn't think the results would come out at 2 dte instead of at tonight's...

    On the pop over 180 I sold 202.5CCs for Friday, and Jan 2025 260 strike that I plan to BTC for a profit on any dip later today or tomorrow.

    I could be wrong, but I don't believe the shareholder meetings in the recent past have had a SP spike after. This year could be different because we don't know how much the Delaware ruling has been suppressing the stock. I haven't sold any CCs for this week, and I'm really fighting the urge to...

    Well, I definitely bought those 200C for Friday way too early. Didn't think we would have another Red day after yesterday, going into the meeting on Thursday. Hopefully FOMC comes to the rescue tomorrow....

    China had its best May ever. +29% vs last year. Deliveries for the year basically caught up to last year. Loss of EV incentives in Germany this year has definitely hurt sales in that country. We'll see if other European countries make up for it.

    I sold 50X -180P for Friday for $7 (was limit order that hit). These are shares I'm trying to get back. With all the premiums I've received, it would be the equivalent now of having sold them at 185 and buying them back at 180. So not too bad, and it brings my break even point to 185 if the...

    I went on a morning bike ride and missed my chance to sell the 207.5CCs for a little less. My 207.5CC for next week didn't trigger despite the SP spiking higher than it did at open when they were going for .3 Would have had a nice profit today. Oh well, expensive bike ride....

    I just have the feeling that we go up after the meeting next week (especially given the news from Elon about FSD 12.4, 12.5, and 12.6). I'm still trying to get back 5,000 shares that I lost on CCs before ER. I now have made enough premium that buying them back at 178 is break even. I currently...

    I'm trying to decide if I roll in 202.5CCs for Friday down to 187.5 for some extra premium. Should be safe.... I would like a little pop for more premium though.

    So with the calls you are hoping to buy 10,000 shares at 170? With the Puts you are hoping to buy 10,000 shares below 172.5 and below 170?

    Rolled the 50X 170CCs to Jan 2025 240 strike for $5.6 credit. That was the entry for the 5,000 shares. If we are at or above 240 in January then lots of my old BPS spreads that expire on the same date will expire worthless.

    Well, Macro is trying to help my 170CCs for today. I will wait until the end of the day when all Theta gone, and then either roll to end of June 180 (for about even), or Jan 2025 240 strike for a credit. I'm just worried that we are 200+ end of June, and then rolling will be very difficult, so...

    My gut feeling is that TSLA goes up after the Shareholder meeting, even if the vote goes against Elon (because of other good news at the meeting). Between FSD and CT ramp, and possibly new Model Y, I think TSLA goes up from here. So I'm trying to get out of all my ITM CCs before then.
