Last week I saw my account balance lose half its value going from just over $14K to just under $7. I had made a withdrawal a few weeks ago for $2K so overall I sit down just over $6K. The market was up so much last week and I really feel we have a breather this week. I put on some high risk plays this week and am expecting a flat to slightly down week. If the market does go up its not going to be up big. I think people are expecting a lot of volatility with the earnings reports and with all the data coming out so premiums are high this week. Here are my strategies:
AAPL $427.44 3 420/415 Put Credit Spreads; 3 440/445 Call Credit Spreads
AMZN $306.57 3 300/295 Put Credit Spreads; 3 315/320 Call Credit Spreads
MA $595.87 1 585/580 Put Credit Spread; 1 605/610 Call Credit Spread
NFLX $257.91 3 240/235 Put Credit Spreads; 3 265/270 Call Credit Spreads; 1 260/255 Put Debit Spread. I also had 4 contracts of the 255/250 Put Debit Spreads purchased last Friday that I closed for a nice gain this morning.
PCLN $911.97 6 905/900 Put Credit Spreads; 5 940/945 Call Credit Spreads; 1 930/935 Call Credit Spread.
SPY $168.21 3 166/165 Put Credit Spreads; 3 170/171 Call Credit Spreads
TSLA $127.32 3 122/117 Put Credit Spreads; 3 140/145 Call Credit Spreads
Overall I was up $350 on the day. I hope to keep the profits going tomorrow. This is a good week to put on Iron Condors but stay away from stocks with earnings reports this week. You can play the earnings but I usually only do one side or the other since big moves can be expected.
