$SMCI 20241101 44.0 PUT$ This is what happened thanks to the auditor resignation 😢😢😢
I did a partial buy at 120 without using my full allocation. I did this only after seeing strength. While$NVIDIA(NVDA)$  dipped to 117 the charts were not clear if it would continue to fall or go up. So after some analysis I set 120 as the new support and decided to buy  when the price crossed this level upward and bought into some. The stock did go on to rally to 131 pre market before falling to presently 125 but I thi k 120 is a good support and psychological level to hold.

The news is not clear On$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  so I am hedging the bets. By my calculations the stock may move by 15-20 USD either way. So I have entered into a strangle with limits at 108 on lower side and 145 on the higher side  Let's see how that pans out! Update: That went very well and both trades expired worthless netting me 100%
$BABA 20250905 105.0 PUT$ Baba is a good long term stock which I won't mind holding, and this price has strong support 
$MSTR 20251010 275.0 PUT$ My original short option was at a lower price.I was loosing money. I averaged up with this sell to increase position size and average cost to a more sustainable level.

Here is the details of my trading on earnings on$Snowflake(SNOW)$   Before earnings I did some research. By all analysts the results were expected to be good for revenue and profits with a growth in EPS. So I knew I could buy into the stock if in worst case it fell. I then had to choose strategies. A naked put Or a cash secured put would have been a winner if the price went straight up. But such conviction borders on foolishness. Also to collect premiums the strike would have to be near the present price which was already elevated. I was not comfortable with this as even buying using a CS Put may result in a high cost price. I then shortlisted on two strategies, a bull put spread or an iron condor. Since I
$ASTS 20260116 100.0 CALL$ I love this company but I don't see it at 100 without events hence the risk.
$UVXY 20251128 75.0 CALL$ Volatility will take a beating, hope to profit from it. The good thing about volatility is that it does not last.
$NVD 20251121 11.0 CALL$ Covered calls on my NVDA short etf. I hold this to hedge NVDA and use it for calls 
$UVIX 20251107 11.0 CALL$ Closed call at profit to sell the vix due to hike in volatility 
$Microsoft(MSFT)$ DAIP setup on Microsoft brings in fractional shares as a drip feed😂
$JNJ STRADDLE 251003 CALL 177.5/PUT 177.5$ I closed $JNJ STRADDLE 251003 CALL 177.5/PUT 177.5$ ,J&J started to move up making one side of the straddle fail. Exit at a loss as I don't see J&J go back down before expiry. I am testing some straddle strategy and picked J&J as my studies showed its price don't move much. However it decided to act up soon as I bought the straddle. To hedge I seperately bought a higher put, however the loss from straddle was becoming higher. J&J started to move up making one side of the straddle fail. Exit at a loss as I don't see J&J go back down before expiry. I am testing some straddle strategy and picked J&J as my studies showed it

$Trump Media & Technology(DJT)$  Ah well I knew it was a risk but I just wanted a 1 USD trade but$Trump Media & Technology(DJT)$  dropped like a rock. I am stuck holding this baby. I hope Potus does something to make it break even for me 🤦🏻
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ is already too expensive on PE terms. It’s fundamentals are not in sync with its valuation, just like $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ but shareholders are caught up in aggressive buying out of FOMO and lack of fundamental knowledge.
$2X Long VIX Futures ETF(UVIX)$ Buying VIX to internally hedge portfolio against drawdown 
$UVXY 20251121 15.0 CALL$ Taking a call on my UWXY. Covered. I hold UWXY to hedge portfolio and rather than keeping it lying around eroding, take some calls above cost price 
$Salesforce.com(CRM)$ DAIP drip feed fractional shares
$MSTR STRANGLE 250926 CALL 400.0/PUT 290.0$ Closing out most open positions. It appears that the SPX and Nasdaq may falter or consolidate don't want tail risks
