I definitely noticed my Netflix shares spike up today. Now I really regret I backed off from shorting PUTs on it earlier. I got burned very bad in the past along with Ackman on that one HISTORIC day... I learned a VERY valuable lesson... regardless of what the BOOKs tell you, you can NEVER, EVER, rely on a roll of your options to another date before expiration. When the shit hits the fan and the liquidity runs away.... you will run into the VERY REAL threats of people exercising your short-puts on you DESPITE you have multiple weeks/months of time-value remaining. After reading a hundred books or so on options trading, I don't recall this very real risk being mentioned. At best they will warn of 'surprise' dividends before expiration, but that's about it.
Nice!! NetFlix's got some outstanding new shows added to its lineup. So glad I canceled Disney+, so highly overrated.
