Tuesday Virtual Portfolio Moves

Like I said, lots of stops to be set, not taking chances if the market pulls back.

 

===============================================

  • 10:16: VTS Feb $80 puts are now called VTUNP with a bid at $1.30 and ask at $3.  I’m going to ask $2.50 as we’re in at $1.85 but, in truth, I’ll be happy to get that back and get out!

 

This is going to be much easier for me so let’s see how this goes.  It also lets you link to the comment and check surrounding comments.

  • GOOG Mar $520 for $24
    • Sell the  Jan $510s, which some idiot is willing to pay $5 for….
    • After that, it will be a tough call on selling the Feb $520s for $18 but they should hold value well inot earnings so you have time to decide with a $19 basis but I sure would to have almost no spread with a 1 month advantage.

OLED on the move again

  • TSO Feb $65 puts for $1.55,
    • nice for a day trade if VLO breaks below $50 (really below, not .04).
    • Easy to play if you get out at VLO $50.25

CC (and many other long plays) when I suspect something is being pinned down into expiration, I’d rather wait until after to sell calls.

  • Out of CVX Mar $70 puts at $2.85
  • 1/2 Out PBR Feb $90 puts for 2.30
  • Asking 1/2 out PTR Feb $130 puts for $7.75
    •  (half out EOD no matter what)

SU puts too good to sell! If oil breaks $50, they break $65 in short order.

  • XOM Feb $75 puts out at $4.50
  • XOM Feb $70 puts added at $1.50 as a pre-roll on $72.50 puts.
  • Selling Jan $72.50 puts for $1.35 against Feb $72.50s
