The CC at 405 for Sep18 is OK, but the BE is going to be around 380. Unlikely to break 430 through Sep18 which I why I prefer the synthetic straddle. Hit the bid on the 430C on Tuesday morning. He covers his margin call and benefits from stickiness and a nominal vol-drop if it rallies. The 430C for Sep18 should open around 17 with the shares at 380. The thing will be moving so my guess is that the peak vol will occur at the open. I would hit the bid on 40 of those 430C at the open and wait it out.
Fuck yeah... Better off with Reg T than Portfolio Margin.TOS will simulate up and or down 50% for TSLA.. Im not so sure I would be reccomending shorting calls against TSLA until I knew how much of his net worth is being exposed.. Im assuming its decent as he was short 20 puts(again big margin),unless it was a spread and,his longs were way below?? Dude needs to play great D.. There needs to be an end to his pain..
i dont get why is this guy worried? so he got to buy the shares at $405. who cares? it will be at $450 next week. why wouldnt you get exercised? of course you will, but you received the premium, so you still won. and again $tsla will be at $450 next week. but im new here so...maybe i should just shet up and stay outta vet business?
Haven't traded Reg T in a while,so I'll punt and say minimum cap hit will be 10 percent of stock price plus premium..Ball park 60 bucks per contract..most likely more.. Does he have 240k plus??
