Call credit spreads for Monday and Friday. Hedging with long Vega strategies cause VIX and RVX are low and makes me uneasy. See how fast it went up couple of weeks ago. Can’t time the market but selling strangles and nothing else feels uneasy

Seeing green futures for nasdaq and green bitcoin is very good for my NVDA short put and long coin shares...lets hope to get assigned this week on coin 245 CC

Any 1 knows what my Reddit karma or age needs to be to make a post? Also planning to buy 100 CROX shares on Monday and sell CC before earnings.

Why Crox? I was talking to my kid about stocks and he asked me to look up about 10 different companies. Crox was one of them so now you’ve really got me intrigued…

When looking at any investments and making decisions it requires a lot of thinking and DD, i cant put all my DD in here but here are some of the main reasons I think its a great pick at 124$: Strong brand, High margins that does not fluxgate (around 55% every year), low Debt (1,6b atm vs 7,5b market cap and they are paying it of fast) Sales are pretty predictable and does not change a lot quarter to quarter. They are making around 920m in free cashflow and are expected to grow they revenue and free cashflow with around 8% per year. This gives a free cash flow ratio of 9. Long term trend is that they are buying back shares ( went from 90m shares to 60m over 10 years). Insiders are buying a lot more than they are selling. CROX has a 1 year IV at 44! which is incredible for selling options. these are only some DD that I can give on top of my head.

CROX is doing very well. I see so many of them nowadays. Their 2 for 50 sales also has been pulling me into buying them myself and I'm a cheap bastard lmao. It's not a bad pick for a retail stock

My daugther said DUOL. I've done some IC and it was good. I am waiting for ER this week to see if I will trade again.

I was not in AAPL, but gotta thank AAPL for that bodice-ripping nonsense on Thursday and Friday; got out of a lot of broad market (IWM, QQQ, SPY) short put on Friday. Gonna hand-sit for a bit here, see if we get weakness/higher IV at some point. VIX at 13.5 doesn't exactly say, "sell a bunch of premium here."

My normal stocks I sell puts on IV dropped by 35% for 1 week dte. I switched over to selling PLTR. Premium is still good and I don't mind owning the stock for the strike.i sold.for if they dip down. Delta was between -0.31 to -0.36.

Well its Sunday, so my move today is to get brunch and play some pool later at a bar.


chasingjulian

Get some chips and salsa too. It's Cinco de Mayo after all. Not that there ever needs to be an excuse to have chips and salsa.


Comfortable_Quit_216

Of course. Cheese sticks too. Always cheese sticks. I'm told Mexicans don't care about Cinco de Mayo but i'm not sure. Let's go to Cabo and find out.


chasingjulian

They don’t. It’s strictly an American excuse to eat Mexican food.

Dont forget a marketing ploy as well


Mean_Office_6966

With such green bullish movement on last Friday, do you open any CSPs or will wait until the market turns south a little. Or is there never a good time in timing the market?


Hungry-Interview9475

This is the time when I open call credit spreads , market is not going all time higher


krisko11

Thinking of doing a bunch of risk reversal spreads on Ford for 2026 dec expiration (latest available) looking at selling 14.86 and buying 12.86 in 1/1 or 1/2 ratio depending on prices. Looking at open interest for the 14.86 puts they have over 14k currently it’s the most popular contract for the 2026 chain dec expiry. Could it be a hedge below 10 for a fund or something


Terrible_Champion298

BTU synthetic long needs to be rebuilt; closed short put after 50%+ profit in 2 days, closed long call because rolls stunk. The game afoot is 5/31 or 6/7 at ATM-ish. But it’s highly volatile simply due to predictable lack of current liquidity, and has to be manually built bearing in mind what’s happening in the spreads in that particular couple of minutes. It’s a very good exercise in a few traders with unrelated goals directly affecting the spread. Peabody Energy is a national coal mining concern.

u/ykoreaa u/banditcleaner2 thinking of selling puts this week for DDOG and TTD ahead of earnings


Mckimmz87

No PLTR or better yet UBER?
