We went short today with a bear call spread and less than a month until expiration. Our risk reward for our contracts was an even 1:1, with the breakeven at the 37.50 strike price. Our stop loss is at breakeven to manage our risk to the lowest point possible.
this is a simple idea if you think tsla will not get over 241 in 50 days. give a small profit until 236 where the profit grows 3 times, and has no risk if price remains below BE marked on chart long oct 230 call and short 2 oct 235 call for a $1 credit
May credit spreads expired. Good R/R on August options (for a credit spread)...close to 1/1. My break even is at SPY=$210.20. While my hypothesis has been evolving, I still see SPY as volatile. The August options provide some flexibility to adjust if prices go up to $208-212 range and continue to profit if SPY stay in current range. 1W: 1M:
I'm adding on a touch of long delta here so that my core SPY position doesn't stray too far to the negative side. The first thing I looked at, however, was whether I could peel off some short call spread action to balance instead, but most of the spreads have not yet decayed enough to make that worthwhile ... . Filled for $41/contract ... .
Looks like SPY wants to go to 208 based on measuring height of double bottom coil and trend line at 208 If SPY breaks out above 203 to the upside 205 then 208 could be targets RISK DISCLAIMER Options involve risks and are not suitable for everyone. Option trading can be speculative in nature and carry substantial risk of loss. Only invest with risk...
Good credits for this Bear Call Spread. With GC going down, showing it's intension to the downside, i love to get some $ for low risk... P!
Oy. That was quick. Out for 50% max profit. I'll look to add the short put side back in tomorrow ... .
After closing the short put wing yesterday for a small profit and rolling the short call wing up and out a week for an additional credit, I'm selling a 1025/1035 short put vertical in the same expiry as the rolled out call wing to complete an April 15th 1025/1035/1105/1120 iron condor. I'm still playing a little bit with the percentage of max profit to either...
Although today's upmove was fairly slight, the move -- coupled with a bit of volatility weakness -- was enough to get me out of the short put side of this setup for about a $50/contract profit. That isn't great, but the put side was a rolled spread that was a bit close to current price, so I seized the opportunity to close it out here. I then proceeded to roll...
With an implied volatility rank of 99 and an implied volatility of 182, selling a little premium here at market open. I'm operating on the assumption that 16 is the low and that it won't revisit that level for a bit. Ordinarily, I'd strangle or iron condor this, but it's been wild to the topside ... . Filled for .75 credit ($75/contract). Notes: Thanks to...
Several weeks ago, I iron condored GLD on the notion that we would see some resistance around the 111 area. The short call spread of that original iron condor was 111/114. I stripped off the short put side at near worthless and also added to the position with a GLD 115/118 short call spread. Needless to say, 111 provided scant short-term resistance and now GLD...
Spy Weeklys In the Money,At the Money or Out of the Money? What strike price is the best to trade for max bang for the buck? First you have to get the direction right and assuming you did that next you have to decide which strike price is the best to play for max profit in a short time period. Attached is a chart that shows the SPY trades we followed over 2 weeks...
With 21 DTE left in a setup I originally put on as an iron condor, I'm closing this out at nearly max profit on this upmove. I'll deal with the "broken" short call spread that was part of near expiry if we get a sufficient enough down move (something we haven't seen in two weeks).
Selling SPY short call vertical action on this strength ... . This is to add to my existing April 15th SPY positions, but it's probably also okay as a standalone trade. April 15th 205/209 short call vertical Probability of Profit: 75% Max Profit: $61/contract Buying Power Effect: $339/ contract
