Thursday 14 Aug 2025 Morning Notes

Flipped a straddle in KR yesterday for +22%. Had another straddle in ONON that I flipped for peanuts, then watched it run for better than +30%. I didn't want to have to sit around and nurse that position after clipping the quick profit in KR.

Monday 11 Aug 2025 Morning Notes

Flipped straddles in CELH and CROX on the open for some quick cash, lost some cash on a FTNT straddle established the day prior. Also had a straddle on in GRPN that went down about 30% for most of the day, then I bailed for even $ only to watch it RIP by end of day for better than +100%. So typical.

I can't believe August monthly opex is already here, time flies man! Earnings slows down significantly this week.
