Had to leg in. Just got the short put credit side of some 1840-1697.5 11/29 iron condors on AMZN filled.

Sold 11/22 weekly puts on CMG 717.5.

Eyeballing CSCO for an end of the day trade before earnings. The recent trend says to go short calls. Unless they blow earnings out of the water, that should work at the 25 delta.

Had a strangle on before earnings expiring Friday. The move today helped big time. Prob won’t close the position until Friday but will monitor closely

Love when this happens. Think I’m going to break even or lose a little on a trade and a day or two before expiration. POP

What a run for DIS today

Sold all my March dis calls today for 150% today and still left a lot on the table.. crazy pump.. I wonder how many of the 10 million subscribers are actually paying for it (free with Verizon unlimited etc..)

Hopefully great minds are thinking alike. That’s what I put on this morning.

Maybe a lucky break. There hasn’t been much movement so far in AH. I think the call is going on right now.

The short 220 calls look safe for now.

not (sure) if anyone were interested hedging/daytrading $SPY (or trading price action)..


but there is nice breakout opportunity presenting.
$spy has been in a nice trend (easy to see buy/sell zones on a 130-195min charts) the past month.

i'm out with the thanksgiving lull approaching..but watching.
december is MUCH volume (and less shenanigans) with the potential for some gap action up to maybe 320


$nvda might be worth watching @open
implied movement i believe was 7% (usually seen 48 hrs afterwrds?)... i'm curious if we'll see the wallstreetbet crowd all try to exit positions @ same time (creating a nice opportunity)

Letting the NVDA short calls expire @ close. Started to put some more on before yesterday’s close, but whenever I get greedy, I usually get punched. But yeah, with the (undeserved, IMO) slap it got after earnings, I’ll probably look to put a bullish trade on next week.

Just got the short call side of some 11/22 CMG strangles in: 777.5/717.5

Yeah, and I wish I hadn’t. Woulda/coulda/shoulda...

Tried to sell some 11/22 NVDA 197.5 puts at the open. Came within a few pennies of getting the fill. Then it took off running. Oh well...

$spy was flat so spent maybe an hour or so scalping/providing liquidity to roku 170 wk4 calls..


less potential for homeruns but penny trading options might be my favorite style (much less researched needed/required)
