    Most of Europe countries are now reported, just a couple of smaller ones to go: Wiki - Tesla Europe Registration Stats The good news is that they managed to exceed April, decent UK deliveries helping there, but Germany and France sales collapsed and as a result YoY May is -35% Needs month 3...

    I think it has got a bit over-extended, sure they're printing $$$ for the moment, but "the competition is coming", I think... heard that before somewhere (except it begins to become true now for Tesla, IMO)

    I'm hoping this week's -p172.50/-c180 strangles expire OTM and then either do nothing or maybe 10x -ATM straddle just for shits'n'giggles

    Yeah, they're better because there a lot of risk of a big move... my natural tendency is to go for the big money on these weeks, but more often than not I get burned... so I'm planning to be out of weekly short positions for next week... might put a small straddle play in place, just for the...

    So DeepKittyLitter paid $65m for the 120000x 6/21 GME +c20’s, which will be worth roughly 3x at market open 😂 Nice setup, buy a shitload of calls, tweet about it, pumps the stock, sell, wait for it to drop back, rinse/repeat

    Last week was very profitable, realised +3% on total portfolio value In the end went with the same 100x -p172.50 / -c180 for this next week Also had to roll my NVDA -p1100's, would have left these to the last moment if I could, but was driving, so just rolled them to next week, was a juicy...

    Problem with inverse strangles is that the only play is with the Theta, at least one side of the trade will be ITM at expiry, maybe both, I don't see the logic here. Better to have a single short position that has a chance of going OTM or a straddle where you half your risk, but an inverse...

    Hey gang, was out drinking last night and today driving up to Denmark, need to time my next Supercharge so I can trade out of this week's NDVA -p1100 (will roll to same strike for next week) and the TSLA -c170's, -p172.50's & -c180's Haven't yet decided on next week's strangle strikes, but I...

    How do we know that less inventory means more sales? Perhaps they pulled-back on production, we just don't know In any case, where are you seeing inventory, I no longer see in-stock cars on Tesla's website, they stopped that and just match exiting inventory with new orders as far as I can tell

    If Musk exercises $59b worth of options then he would need to pay tens of $billions in taxes, he needs to get that money from somewhere, right?

    Yeah, wilt -c170's, -p172.50's and -c180's the closer we are to the low 170's the better for me, would love to close out today as I'm driving to Denmark tomorrow, would resell some puts, then wait for calls

    Hey, thanks for the reminder, I had totally forgotten about the NVDA split! That changes my strategy a bit, I won't go for the big Na 2025 -p1250 now, stick with the weeklies until after the split, then see how it falls... As of now, still holding 5x -p1100 for this week, which look likely to...

    Yeah, the NVDA juggernaut looks unstoppable at the moment, have the markets ever seen anything similar in the past?

    13k China numbers are OK, but not amazing when you consider that the weekly numbers end of 2023 were hitting 18k after the M3H ramp, so they're either exporting more cars, "building inventory" or producing less At this moment, the small real-time view we get (Scandinavia + Netherlands), it's...

    Production in Shanghai allegedly reduced too... and EU deliveries tracking lower QoQ and YoY We will know a lot more this time next week when EU countries start reporting But again I ask where those 50k "in transit" went to, because they aren't yet showing up anywhere we can see
