Turning a Losing Trade into a Winning One: TSLA Case Study

Trading is about managing risk and adapting to market shifts. Here’s how I turned a losing TSLA options trade into a profitable outcome.

• Initial Trade: On Dec 16, I sold a vertical put spread (437.5-442.5) when TSLA was at $448.

• Market Drop: By Dec 19, TSLA fell to $410, putting my trade at maximum loss risk.

The Adjustment:

Instead of closing for a loss, I monitored price movements closely. On Dec 20, as TSLA rebounded to $441, I:

• Sold a bear call spread (440-445) for $2.70.

• Allowed my put spread to expire.

The Outcome:

TSLA closed at $423 — below both spreads.

• Both spreads expired worthless.

• I kept all collected premiums and turned a losing trade into a profitable one.

Key Lesson: Stay calm, monitor closely, and use strategic adjustments like spreads to recover and manage risk effectively.
