Options trade: SPX short call option (bearish)

Tuesday, 4/2/2019 (9:34:14 am, PT)

sell short -1 May 17, 2019  2950 call option at $11.10

Facts:

• 20 delta
• stochastics in "overbought" region
• 45 days 'til expiration (ideal)
• credit received:  $11.10 x 1 x 100 = $1110

Friday, 5/10/2019 (8:01:45 am, PT)

buy back short call option at $0.75 to protect my profits and remove the risk

COMMENTS:

• After I placed my bearish trade, SPX continued to rise (bad!)
• On 5/1/2019, SPX hit a new all-time high of 2954.13 (bad!)
• On 5/1/2019, my short call option was in-the-money by only 4.13 but it was trading at $26.36 (my "paper loss" was $1526 at the time)
• Luckily for me, SPX dropped after hitting the new all-time high on 5/1/2019
• On 5/10/2019, at 8:01:45 am, PT, SPX hit an intraday low of 2825.39 and I was able to buy back my short call option for only $0.75 ($75 for one contract)
• It's a GOOD thing I closed my trade when I did, because SPX shot back up over 65 points right after I closed my trade!

PROFIT:  $1035

Wednesday, 5/1/2019 (11:50:31 am, PT)

sell short -1 May 10, 2019  $1880 put option at $6.80

Facts:

• this trade was a "hedge" against my short call option

• 9 days 'til expiration (very short-term)
• FOMC press conference at 11:30 am, PT

Friday, 5/3/2019 (7:26:23 am, PT)

buy back my short put option at $3.00 to protect my profits and remove the risk (of assignment)

PROFIT:  $380 (in 2 days)

Comments:

• On 5/10/2019 (Expiration), at 8:50 am (PT), Amazon was trading near $1856 and my put option was trading near $24.95!  It's a GOOD thing I closed my trade on 5/3/2019!

• After some positive comments from the White House (regarding the US/China tariff negotiations), Amazon reversed back up to close at $1889.98 at 1 pm (PT)

• My short put option would have been fine if I had held it all the way until expiration (1 pm, PT), but who needs the stress?  I was happy to get over 50% of max profit in just two days
