Based on today's prices, here's a play … sell a Oct19$27 Put for $0.50 and then, after exercise, write a Nov16$29 Call for $0.90.
If your Put doesn’t get exercised this Friday, you pocket $0.50.
If the Put gets exercised and the stock price is in the same range, you get another $0.90. Your investment is then $25.60.
Then, if TSLA goes above $29 on Nov 16 you close the entire position for a gain of $3.40.
Alternatively, if TSLA continues to drop then your cost is at a maximum of $26.50.
