AMZN Feb volty

If you're looking for an option sale, the SBUX puts are a blazing sale. Feb's 60%, Apr's @ 50%. Someone lifted the offer on both tenors, several times. I should know, I sold some to them. :(

Yeah, that's fat. I know you're quoting AMZN as I type this. :p
 
Looks like AMZN is a better vol sale then SBUX. Not that I am advocating selling vol at these levels in general.

AMZN's indexed implied vol has gone to the 70 level pre earnings a few times and appears to top out there. Looking at sbux it can get a lot higher then where it is now.

Your [nearly] neutral gamma helped. Good call.
