TSLA on deck after hours tomorrow. 72% IV and 99% IV percentile! Who dares to test the option waters with this one?

I’ll likely do a smallish 10-12 delta short put play in my investment account. It’s been beaten down pretty badly of late. But if nothing is said on the call about addressing the growing low price Chinese EV competition with a higher volume, but lower margin vehicle, like a “Model 2”, more selling pressure could hit.

But at some price, it’s at least worth it to date TSLA (as a tradeable), though I have no desire to buy it a ring. We’ve “dated” many times over the years, and its high IV and price fluctuations have typically made me good money. But let’s see how it pans out this time.

Almost did a PMCC on it but went with AMZN and Goog. But I am now looking to find a long term entry.

Nice trade, that should easily fall out the money.

My UVXY short calls doing well after this little volatility slide.

I took TSLA 169,165,170 and 200Cs last week when they were dirt cheap. Did you listen to the call? Not one but two FSD contracts coming (granted multi year implementation for other OEMs), Optimus well on the path to usage in 5 years, staying focused on traditional business (cost cutting) and saying but not saying the $25k car is going to be announced next earnings (I think he said Aug 3)
