Bought IWM May 24 $163 calls

That's my market breakout optimism trade.
Target on these are $2.15+
Low IV, high Delta and Gamma on these.

How do you feel about the underlying not hitting $163 since last fall? That seems like quite a goal given our previous run this spring.

These are all V completed back to the fall. They have been moving up to top range of resistance sideways waiting for the next major breakout.

If s&p goes positive today, I think there will be a meltdown. A glorious meltdown.

Can you see it? 2929 now. Explosion move short crush right after 2925. That's why I posted the IWM buy.

I bought some weekly SPY calls. I mean, if it breaks open, awesome. If not, then I'm out fifty bucks.

Learn something new every day. Should have gone further out of the money on my IWM calls to get a higher ROI on the recovery.

Rolled my TEUM calls to October 7.5. When I said I was ok with making 35%, I really meant I was ok making 110% and being called out. Or reducing overall cost of shares by half.

Which means we can get whip-sawed if they jerk us around.

I generally trade closer to the vest as mentioned. Great technical allowed for some easy gains. Sometimes an IWM entry at $1.22 is worth selling a % at $1.45. A 23 cent cushion granted in an hour against your remaining position gives peace of mind to sit back and see what unfolds.

See my moves - I do it all the time when taking large options positions. Who wouldn't???

Ah, I know they are above expectations on number of deliveries. Maybe this is where the options come into play.

Who are the OSTK experts on here. I know they've had it rough but the chart looks like support is holding. Option premium too high with earnings in 2 days. Would anyone be a buyer of the stock long?

Heck I could buy OSTK under $13. Sell the weekly covered call for $1 and buy the weekly $12 Put for $0.60 guaranteeing $400 per 100 shares?

And this would be called Gamma scalping, no?

I got it on ANET calls again today. It did the same thing as Friday, followed the overall market right in step for a nice return.

Pay no attention to that ridiculous $20k goal. I want to see it at $50k after we're done.
