I feel like I'm finding my niche. It just had to be one of the more intense option plays to get a grip on to find it.

Need some advice... I have two Apple 550 Calls, up 110%. One expires 8/28 and the other expires 9/4.

Should I keep holding both through the split, sell one now, or sell both now?

I should add.. can't afford to exercise them

I'm still at the "pick something at random, watch it go up 800%, get greedy and watch it go to 0" stage. I need to dig into the butterfly more, nothing wrong with nickle and diming your way to oa status!

I'm paper trading different option strategies on ToS until I'm comfortable. Until then, I'm in and out of calls with the quickness!

I still do the latter. Case in point? Grabbed Apple 480C this morning at open, $2.50 or soomething. Bailed out high 3's after it pulled back from mid 4's. That freaking call is $18.50 right now.

I'm getting better at having stone hands, especially on flys that have such little risk to them, but one day I'll get a lotto right and be on cloud 9.

AMZN might make a move these last 30 minutes. The call premiums have been increasing while the stock moves sideways.

Is there a way to see historical prices for butterfly's? For instance to see what a particular 8/21 TSLA butterfly was worth last as this week and last week advanced? I can chart the 3 calls individually and do the math myself. But who wants to do math?

Just went for a 100 SPY Monday $341 Calls. These are the times I'll risk a few thousand to see if a record set Friday results in a launch Monday.

amzn started to jump on a 5m vol spike when I posted that, but it's still just stuck at 3285. I felt like 3301 was giong to win the day, but seems there's not enough gas.
got a spread or fly idea for amzn? this sucker is going to pop next week.
Love the question, hate that i have no answer. I don't know how to predict measured moves like some of these gurus out there. I'd have to rely on psych numbers. Maybe pin one 50 wide at 3400?

Std fly -
3450/3400/3350 - probably gonna pay $4-$5 for it, probably too rich for my blood.

Broken Wing Fly Bullish Bias
3340p/3400p/3450p You may receive a $2-$4 credit when placing it. You'll be tying up the remainder of ($10 - credit received) in buying power, but if this moves up in any way you'll very quickly start to gain.
I have an order in for the broken wing at $4.20 credit. We'll see if it fills.

Yes, puts. Adds risk to downside, but major rewards to up side

If I had less sensitivity to $1000 swings this is what the tsla fly from yesterday would be worth (bottom) vs what I sold for yesterday (top)

You'd think those firms with buy ratings would come out and reaffirm their buy ratings. Any positive news would help.
