Hoping to see $169 in the next hour to do my rolls.

Many folks that want or have to move on just do it, and add $90+ million to the portfolio.

What do you suppose the payback calculation would be on a roof over a 4000 sq.ft. house?

Surprised by this week’s price action, but that’s a fairly typical situation most weeks……. Have the following 0DTE CC: $145 — shares purchased last week at $144 + $5 sto intended as a buy-write = $6 profit; will probably let these assign, then rebuy shares and sto a 4DTE ATM on Monday for ~$4...

You may have to roll out several months to improve strike price significantly. How badly do you want to keep the shares? You could roll at $130 for some time and see if SP drops which will give you more flexibility / affordability to improve strikes.

The deniers continuously come up with excuses how these events are unrelated to climate change. People who want to believe crazy 💩 are everywhere………

In central NC (just west of Chapel Hill) yesterday, enroute to Raleigh

Me: $155 and $162.50, looking like 1-2 week rolls for small credits; may have to let the $145 buy-write go.

A less sci-fi Roadster?

Calling on him first was kind of funny………SNL………

Maybe not enough :)

Implications for 2Q if finished inventories return to normal?

This is a great move. Softening growth rates for 3/Y —> new “hybrid” models asap on current production lines/capacity as a transition point to RT/$25k models. With all our speculation about possibilities, we didn’t come up with this one!!

Thanks, but didn’t need your typical snark………

As a Texan, do you have an opinion about the relocation of incorporation from DE to TX?

Done for $230 debit (which didn’t change much throughout the day’s SP fluctuations).

Hoping to see a written rationale from Tesla on the subject, so that comments can flow……..

Might roll half of 26Apr$155 to twice as many 26Apr$162.50 for some cushion in case of an ER spike, still expecting a drop. This would raise % of shares covered from 70% to 85% through Friday when 40% should expire, so still some reserve in case have to rescue the remaining $155.

It hit, and I booked 26Apr$145 CC at a rather incredible $5 for 4 days.

I wonder if there’s a setting to get Elon’s Tesla and SpaceX posts only :)

If my GTC at $140 hits, considering doing a buy-write at $140-$150 vs. potential dead cat bounce after ER.

I forgot to add that I put my deposit down in 2019. Aren’t I ahead of non-Foundation orders in the queue?

It really isn’t complicated, like you say she has concentration targets = sell when high, buy when low (as determined by variances in concentration vs target rather than market timing). It would be interesting to see what ARK could do with a TSLA-only ETF, I’d buy some.

Do you now of a reliable way to find your place in the queue for CT delivery? Like “I’m #200,000” or something.

Dipping my toes — bought back x00 shares at $148 sold a few weeks ago for $173 in an IRA account. A GTC limit order is in for the other half (x00) at $140. Total increase of 5%.

Maybe it will be effective though.

It may be time to limit options activity to VERY OTM (like 25% monthlies), accept the pennies and nickels, and wait it out, i.e., HODL.

Rolled out of “25% OTM 6-month” positions that targeted 50% returns before closing into a short-term play that appears will expire after the ER, then will sit back and let the dust settle: 20Sep$210 and $230 (20% of shares) —> 3May$165 (now half of shares) for a pittance cost of $160 26Apr$155...

GF India would indicate all systems go on “Model 2”.

Rolled 12Apr$155 to 26Apr$155 — $2.95 credit, reduced # contracts (on about a quarter of total shares), still positioned for a post-ER dip; a roll to $165 would have required increasing contracts to secure a credit.

No change, lol.

Can’t see much value added in your posts, bye.

Hacks on Tap podcast :)

Jeez, two enormous swings on bs this week, in one day even, with high volume. Treacherous…….

Agree, did half from 12Apr$155 to 3May$165 for -$1.40 a few days ago. Held half hoping to do better (less debit), will look at it over the weekend. Think today’s whipsaw will raise IV?

And I have -155CC for next week. Looks pretty certain will need to roll out past 4/23, trying to decide on $155-$165 as I still expect an eventual swoon after ER, but lower BB is suggesting won’t go below $160 for very long if at all.

https://stocks.apple.com/A_SooCE-URaaIVukk-T1ZLg The article also touches on all the Musk businesses expanding in Texas. I’m sick of Elon’s x’ ing about social and political issues, but I suppose I accept that it’s partly aimed at image building in Texas (whose culture I have zero...

Surely management will not take the usual eccentric approach, right?, right?

Made the following moves today on half of each CC tranche, holding the other half for further btc cost decline or possible expiration over next several weeks: 12Apr$155 —> 3May$165 — debit of $1.40 off of initial premium of $14.10 20Sep$230 — closed at $6.00 vs. initial premium of $13.85 (+56%)

https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/attachments/mar27maxp-jpg.1032933/ Any update to this chart from Thursday am trading? Still looking like $177-$178 close?

Include in P&D or ER?

Short it to hell, mate!

Sorry for the basic question. Is this, in your opinion, the correct RSI to refer to as one indicator of TSLA SP movement? TIA. Tesla (TSLA) 14-Day RSI

Interesting, the 14-day quoted this morning at 41! Tesla (TSLA) 14-Day RSI What is your link for that RSI data? I may be looking at the wrong datapoint, can’t really tell in my link. TIA.

I tend to look at LEAPs as riskier alternatives to TSLA shares. So I don’t get the risk:reward at constant IV — e.g., a 31% gain in SP from 26Mar24 to 29Apr25 returns 40% on $174 LEAPs, but with downside risk. Are LEAPs largely a bet on a change in IV?

= a slight reduction in bankruptcy risk

Wonder if there is a criminal fraud investigation?

Happy to see you participating more in this thread recently, or so it seems, since dialogue is frowned upon in your thread :)

Marvelous post, thank you! How was the charging experience? Did you stick with 250s?
