... for a 1.87 credit. Comments: Targeting the <16 delta strike in the shortest duration that pays around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. The ROC %-age isn't tremendously sexy here, so primarily doing this to keep theta on and burning while I work shorter duration, higher IV underlyings (e.g., SMH, XBI,...
... for a 1.90 credit. Comments: Selling a put here, since the resulting cost basis if assigned shares would be lower than the cost basis of the position I've currently got on now. The full position is now a June 21st 82/88 covered strangle (i.e., short put, stock, short call). Will look to take profit at 50% max. Metrics: Buying Power Effect/Break Even/Cost...
... for a 2.33 credit. Comments: Targeting the shortest duration <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. (This is actually at the 18 delta, but it was either the 190 or the 185 where I wanted to pitch my tent from a delta standpoint). Starting to slowly deploy third quarter rungs...

... for a 1.82 credit. Comments: Targeting the shortest duration <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. There is no July contract yet, but June is still paying at <16 delta ... .
... for a 1.23 credit. Comments: Adding to my covered call position (See Post Below) on weakness, converting the covered call into a covered strangle (i.e., short put + stock + short call). I went with April, since May appeared to be shit illiquid at where I'd want to pitch my tent. I'm fine with being assigned additional stock here at the 26 strike, since my...
... for a .55 credit. Comments: With the June 86 at greater than 50% max, rolled it down and out to the November 15th 83 for a .55 credit (where I currently don't have a "rung" on). I collected .93 for the June 86; with the .55 here, I've collected a total of 1.18. Primarily looking to reduce a smidge of risk in this position, since my highest strike is at the 86.
... for a 1.54 credit. Comments: Adding a short put component to my TQQQ covered call (See Post Below) here on weakness. Metrics: Break Even/Buying Power Effect/Resulting Cost Basis In Stock: 50.46 Max Profit: 1.53/$153 ROC at Max: 3.03% ROC at 50% Max: 1.52% Will generally look to take profit on the covered call component at 50% max and the short put...
Currently, the Institutional Order Flow on GBPUSD remains bearish , indicating a continued pursuit of premium trading points such as the H1 Bearish Order Block . Smart Money is likely to engage in selling at these levels to capitalize on price movement towards discount prices. My anticipation revolves around the mitigation of the H1 Bearish Order Block,...
... for a 1.08 credit. Comments: Laddering out on weakness, targeting the strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit at or below the cost basis of the shares I've currently got.
... for a .98 credit. Comments: Laddering out at intervals at strikes between 85 and 82, assuming they're paying. This is naturally longer-dated than most will want to go, but is part of a TLT position made up of covered calls (stock + short call) and short puts, so that I'm getting paid for (a) short call premium; (b) dividends; and (c) short put premium over...
... for a 4.95 credit. Comments: A Q3 starter position ... . Targeting the shortest duration <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. July isn't paying, so going out to August. Will look to add rungs in shorter duration, assuming I can get in at strikes better than what I've got on...
... for a 3.90 credit. Comments: Starting to tip-toe into Q3 (July/August/September) contracts in broad market (IWM, SPY, QQQ). Targeting the <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. As usual, will look to sell in shorter duration on weakness, assuming I can get in at strikes...
... for a 1.63 credit. Comments: Laddering out at intervals, targeting the <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. Will start looking at adding in shorter duration if I can get in at strikes better than what I currently have on.
... for a 4.09 credit. Comments: Finally, a bit of weakness ... . Targeting the shortest duration <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging in without actually being in stock.
... for a 2.07 credit. Comments: 30-day IV at 27.8%. (Higher would be better, but you can't have everything). Collecting 1/3rd of the width of the wings in credit. 2.07 credit on BPE of 3.93; 52.7% ROC at max; 26.3% at 50% max. As usual, will generally look to take profit at 50% max; adjust sides on side test. This is probably my last trade in the March...
... for a 3.45 credit. Comments: Earnings play with the announcement today after close. 3.45 credit on buying power of 6.55; 52.6% ROC at max; 26.3% at 50% max. I'm basically looking for two things here: (1) IV contraction post-earnings; and (2) price to stay within the expected move, which the options market is pricing in to be about +/- 43 handles from...
... for a 1.74 credit. Comments: Back to short puts here, targeting the <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit. Just gradually building a position here at intervals.
