Friday 06 June 2025 Morning Notes

Really haven't done much this week aside from getting burned on some short calls, while trying to top-tick vol only having to tap out before of course vol and stock moves reverse. Never would have happened if I were long the calls, but reinforces why I'd rather be long vol than short.

Friday 30 May 2025 Morning Notes

Closed out my ELF spreads for +85%, or roughly $5.25 from an initial $2.85 buy, not bad. Would have been nice if there were further otm wkly call strikes, I would have positioned differently than the 90-100-105 strikes I used. Fresh on the heels of my ELF earnings trade, I traded a COST 1010/1030/1050 bfly for $3.85. The stock has only gapped higher 5 of the last 19 reports, but has tended to rally on the gaps lower.

I'm not around this morning, so I have no plans to do anything other than nurse my COST trade. A small position as I knew I wouldn't be around to deal with it.

Thursday 29 May 2025 Morning Notes

My only trade of note was an earnings gap trade in ELF, buying the 90 calls, selling 2x of the 100s and buying the 105s for $2.85. The trade was looking like a real brick after hours, but has since come back to life with ELF around 103 in the pre-mkt. I won't be around at all today so my only real plan is to potentially close out my ELF position.

Tuesday 27 May 2025 Morning Notes

Loaded up a bunch of short July $1/$4 strangles on WOLF. The trade only sees losses with WOLF >$5.03, or if vol continues to rip. I won't be around much this week so I plan on keeping it light.
