awesome i went to school for horticulture............ bought some puts for .18 cents sold them for .45 cents... thats a good rip all my flys have been profitable this last week... just this one i'm still in... 620/665/710 aapl.... in at 13.07... midpoint of trade right now is 12.85

i'm already going by that and i keep getting the impression that this might not be the date..

i'm going to .. or someone should post it in here... when you find out..

still in one 620/665/710 fly..... mid point right now is 12.85 i'm in this one at 13.07 i go back and forth about wanting out or not... i feel like its on the upper threshold of fucking me.. if we get another good day or two of jumps up.. it will hurt me pretty good.. I need more positions!..

no way.. on opex day...i trade the expiring.... so much gamma its stupid.... use exactly the amount you can completely lose!

those 690's are done.... those are expiring at 0 with the quickness.. should have would have could have on selling them.. i like making the money buying options at expiration.... to much to lose to quick with selling them..

i know.. imagine one of those 17 20 dollar run days on opex.. you can be so stupid and kill it..

i should have turned right around on them at .45 .50 and sold them.. i did that one time... but the kind of home run you can hit into opex is crazy.. turning aroound and selling a credit spread out of those same options i seem my doom in those.. even though i've done it..

anyone know for sure.. and have documentation to back it

the real big money is in the tails.... either knowing how to hedge it.. or knowing how to get long convexity at that point..

thats scary..

looking at on @opex weekly strangle trade on appl... been watching it float down to 1 dollar .. looking for a move at the close... its been moving on opens and closes enough to make sense of a trade like this.. <a target='_blank' title='ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting'...

no.. i was actuallly talking ultra short... i sold a few puts on the TBT.. then got put shards.. then sold calls.. got called away... buy and hold would have been better for sure.. freaking TBT is a cheap way to get long interest rates.. i imagine the tlt might be a little better way to spread...

i filled only one TBT fly 14/15/16 at .31 cents bonds are falling off the tbt is at 17 now.. glad i only had 30 bucks out... need to look for more positions... i literally have almost nothing on..

i have this don't trust aapl feeling when it starts ripping up... nothing neutral about it...ive seen it open 20 dollars less the next day after a sharp run up.. i still like the idea of posting my positions that i'm ok with getting out of up for more then they should go for and if they get...
