Instead of sell in May and go away, I am selling in April.

Closed out my Snap position today for a little profit. Taking profits early when I can.

I could be wrong, but this looks like stop running / gathering liquidity.

Sold my AMZN call spreads for 13% profit. I might have been better off going straight calls there.

I'm going to do something similar. I'll ride this wave a bit longer but will start moving some to cash middle to later this month, depending on how we look. If SKEW gets >150 I might move it a bit faster.

When we begin the pullback I'll be on hair trigger to move all but retirement fully into cash.

you can't really trade the close with stops. Whatever you have on now you have to consider max risk.

So to calculate this, you're looking at the XSP close of $458.26 ($26 profit) less the cost of your calls, correct?

Do you TA traders see a bullish pattern here?
Strong volume V and bull flag above 8/21 sma, with big gap above?

$26 settlement, your profit is whatever you paid for it minus the settlement price, but yeah

Seeing this in real time makes more sense than my diatribe over the weekend.

Thanks CM for the explanation.

Got it, thanks. That's what I thought, but wanted to confirm. Most of the time when I've played these they either went to zero or I sold with some % of profit.

I booked over 10% in the trading account today. That's with me leaving newcar money on the table selling those TSLA calls where I did. I hadn't had one of these days in a long time. It's nice when almost everything hits for you!

Actually i got it backwards...settlement price minus cost equals profit (or loss). But y'all probably caught that

Quite day on the crude front as oil price flipped a huge bird to Biden and his numbskull SPR releases.

Pretty good day today. Everyone should have made profit on SPX, TSLA, and AMZN.

Quick 50K update:

  • ACB is right at $4 (strike price). Any strength tomorrow and these will expire worthless. I'm OK taking assignment as well
  • CWH let's see what happens, but fair odds we keep shares and can continue selling covered calls against them. Remember this pays an 8% dividend
  • DKNG - decent strength today all things considered. We probably get to keep shares
  • BROS - stopped out. Aren't you glad we had a stop loss? That said, I do think this is attractive here, but I will probably sell a put tomorrow
  • DRIP - waiting for oil pull back
  • GOOGL - this may go for max loss, but I will look to get out on strength tomorrow. Ideally this opens above $1 and we can set a stop there. Truly bummed on this one. It had great R/S most of the day until it gave up the ghost in the final candles
  • ESSC - still waiting
  • JNPR - surprisingly good R/S. We want to hang onto this
  • MARA - we are probably going to get assigned. The good news is our cost basis will be $28.5. We can work with that. Next week's 28.5C is trading at $1.50 right now.
  • OSTK - round 2 on this one. If assigned, net basis would be $43.5. That's a great basis. I don't think we'll get assigned, though
  • OXY - thinking we get assigned. Net basis after all premiums is around $55. Workable IMO
  • PETZ - finally profitable. Keeping for now
  • URA - good day on that. Still want $30
  • QQQ - small gain today. We played that correctly.
  • VGFC - 0.50 seems to be the new base, well above our entry. No reason not to keep

Net net, not the best week for this, but no reason to be alarmed.

What was the JNPR play, anyone have that handy?

During the last few minutes today the XSP 458 calls were priced at 0.01 and I was so close to buying 100 contracts of them. That would have been a nice payday
