Ok so I made a stupid move (thought it was smart Monday and sold $345 and $360 calls on my Roku. I'm for sure getting called in both but the $360 pisses me off most since it's my largest holding... Would you

1) Sell puts at the $360 price to recapture where I left off

2) Sell the $385 and recapture half of where I left off

3) Buy the shares back cause it ain't coming back down

Thanks!
4) Roll the sells?


I'm on the beach for my honeymoon and tried on the fidelity app and could not for the life of me figure out how to roll... I feel dumb but have done it on the Active Trader Pro before

I don't think this is an option on fidelity, that is a nice feature on ToS
On the app you'll have to do a spread. I like fidelity desktop, but their app is no fun. I need to take a chunk and put it in ToS.
On ATP there is a roll option. They give you the 4 most likely options and then also allow a custom roll, which is really cool to be able to simulate the value difference at a certain strike or as you get closer to or at expiry.

$GOCO close at $16
I'm almost back to even on my GOCO. Averaged in at $16.3 on all my share purchases. Including my option plays on it though that I've already closed, I'm averaged down to $15.18. Really hoping it crushes throughout Q1 so I can sell some covered calls and maybe even let some go to deleverage on it a bit.

Meaning the last 53 weeks or just this one single week? I'm pretty happy with my 19% ytd, but I have a smaller account so easier for it to fluctuate wildly.

Painful lessons learned this week. But if they're learned, then I guess it's for a reason.

Figuring out what you're good at and sticking to it has been hard for me. Terrible terrible week because of so much stupidity today. But there are plenty more days ahead.

Sorry man. We can all empathize with you what its like to have a good week and a bad one. Next week will be better and a weekend ahead to recharge for it.

37% week. Can we do this for the next 51 weeks?

SLV 24.5 Puts and SPOT were my big winners today. That and exhausting TSM.

Entered XL 1/15 25s, UBER 59s (OA alert), HEXO 1/21/22 $4s as brand new positions.

Found out I have covid at market close when the lab called back. I feel fine, but isolation for me for 10-14 days.

There are a couple of things I've learned that are important:

1) Don't play too big. Congratulations to all of you with 22% and 100% growth this week. You're clearly making either great bets or you're playing with a large portion of your account. I try to risk less than 5% of my account each week.

2) Fridays aren't the day to be clever or to go for blowout wins. Close out / keep what you've got, take a great opportunity if it shows up, but whatever you do, don't ruin your week.

My week was solely due to GILD. It was the 2nd most profitable trade I've ever made. TSLA being the first in 2020.

GILD options cost basis was approximately 10% of my account value at the time. I still have a boatload of shares, I'm holding for the 70-72 range.

I typically never put more than 5% into an options play, but I do follow steadfast rules.

I finished the week up 18%.

Biggest regret of the week was selling my Roku 350c lotto for a lousy (joking...sort of) 110% return on Wednesday afternoon. Then see it reach worth $5,200 today.

As Dan says, may your worst trade be a profitable one.

I just tested positive for the antibodies, guess I had the corona at some point. I have had a runny nose for the past 6 weeks, which I always do because of the Cedar.

Ok. We use three kinds. If it was the doctor nasal/brain scrub you are positive. If it's some of the others I would tell you to retest.

Not medical advice but my coworker took the Invermectim when he came up positive and it worked well for him and he is a higher risk group. He does have a ranch and had some on hand.

So this happened today on RH....

I had 2 SPY 270/275/280 butterfly spreads expiring today.

I should have sold/closed them around 1:30 today, but I didn't. And then I get this notification message:



They broke my butterflies and sold part of them which (for now) cost me $930.

So then I'm sitting with 2 - 270/275 call spreads. And now I'm seeing this:



I'm hoping their system is going figure this out without screwing up anything else.

I think I will come out + $70 if it works out like it should.
