$Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT)$Let me first express amazement at just how much money some people have to gamble with.The U.S. presidential election results will be announced this Wednesday, November 6th. Whether Harris or Trump prevails will dictate the direction for DJT's stock price.The open interest landscape across DJT options depicts starkly divergent expectations. On the call side, the highest open interest strike is the January 2025 $70 calls:$DJT 20250117 70.0 CALL$ While on the put side, the highest open put strike is the $2.5 puts also expiring in January 2025:$DJT 20250117 2.5 PUT$ Such a polari

Option Trades (Week 44 - 2024) Sold 1 lot each. Aim is still to collect income on red days on strikes between 0.25 to 0.30 delta. Not timing or guessing the market as they price better than any of us. Only if the strike prices are close or below moving averages.

Option Trades (Week 44 - 2024) Sold 1 lot of $HOOD 20241129 22.5 PUT$ . HOOD was down on missing estimates and dragged further by the drop in crypto. Growth is still good, adding base on market pricing. Do not doubt the market, LFGP!

Ah, telling me about discounts after I've already placed my orders.Although the sell-off was rather abrupt, I still view it as pre-emptive risk release. The longer-term uptrend remains intact, providing dip-buying opportunities.$Apple (AAPL)$I was second-guessing my $230 put sale from earlier this week as too aggressive. Someone paid over $2 million to buy those $230 puts at the open, essentially fading my position:Buy $AAPL 20241122 230.0 PUT$ Ultimately it may not matter if earnings disappoint, as a rebound could materialize post U.S. election next week.The initial expectation was a rally into the vote, then a sell-off. But the reverse script of a pullback first, followed by a

Option Trades (Week 44 - 2024) Opened 1 lot of $HIMS 20241129 18.5 PUT$ adding onnews from LLY that affected $Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$  . Still a decent company to hold long term. Add on such opportunities.

$Microsoft (MSFT)$Leaning bullish into earnings, but uncertain if an initial gap higher will be sustained through Thursday's close.Options are pricing a 4.4% earnings move, which has historically overstated MSFT's actual reaction. Favoring put sales around the $430 strike or lower seems optimal:Sell $MSFT 20241115 430.0 PUT$ With volatility elevated, long calls run risk of decay accelerating into November opex. Puts may be preferred for capturing upside.$Meta Platforms, Inc. (META)$META presents the opposite scenario compared to MSFT, where the options may be underpricing the magnitude of the earnings move.Current at-the-money straddle i

$Apple (AAPL)$Regardless of earnings reaction, the longer-term trend still appears bullish. Yesterday, a trader was quietly accumulating 20,000 contracts of the $180 strike calls expiring in late 2025 - $AAPL 20251219 180.0 CALL$ Multiple smaller-sized buys allowed this to fly under the radar of conventional large order analysis.I'm not anticipating a major earnings disappointment from Apple this quarter. Their results tend to be relatively stable. I've taken an aggressive put sale approach into the event:Sell $AAPL 20241101 230.0 PUT$ $20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF - iShares

$Nvidia (NVDA)$Nvidia has exhibited remarkable control over its share price the past two weeks, closing at $138 on 10/18 and $141.54 on 10/25 - right at or just below the strikes that institutions were heavily selling calls against.This week, the institutional covered call strategy is:Sell $NVDA 20241101 147.0 CALL$ Buy $NVDA 20241101 155.0 CALL$  with 90,000 contracts eachThe strong results from Tesla and Netflix kicked off earnings season on a positive note. There tends to be a correlated move, either up or down, during peak earnings weeks. Combined with dealers raising their strike prices, it appears downsi

$Tesla (TSLA)$ Waking up to see the stock price today left me dumbfounded - I thought we were targeting $260 for next week? How did it get there in a single day?No issue being wrong on my prediction, ramps like this are music to bullish ears. I mainly feel for the funds who sold those $262.5 calls as part of a covered call position and got blown through. Based on Thursday's trend, it seems highly unlikely Tesla stays below $262 next week.To be fair, the $262.5 strike wasn't an unreasonable one for institutions to sell - it represented a major long-term resistance level. Even if tagged, a pullback was likely to ensue eventually.But Musk hasn't been playing by conventional rules lately. $260 was the target? He just mashed the accelerator and blew ri
