Shorted 400 shares of TSLA at $240.45

Shorted 400 stocks of Tesla/TSLA in project #TSLA4Tesla..
TSLA is teasing me these days and I am really worried that it is setting up some trap for me... 
Probably I need to close all of my positions and stay low...

I sold this but I am thinking to sell some PUT options too as a cushion in case of TSLA going up even though it will limit my profit.

buy to close 2 calls of TSLA_100215C245 at 2.36 limit

Normally I don't close options position #TSLA4Tesla experiment. I let them either expire or get exercised. However as the market and Tesla stock moved against my outlook today, I closed the options instead of getting stuck with too much short position in TSLA stock. I covered my Tesla Call options 245 at $2.36

Sold to open 4 calls of TSLA_100915C245 for next week

As I would like to keep my short position in Tesla stock, I sold some TSLA call options for next week at $6.45. My put options sale in TSLA for this week is likely to be exercised and would remove my current short of 400 stocks in #TSLA4Tesla project.

Sold 2 puts of TSLA_100215P240 at 3.45

Though I am bearish, I am tempted for a 1 day trade. I sold 2 puts of TSLA_100215P240 at 3.45. They expire in a day...
I am going to sell some more calls too..
#TSLA4Tesla project is coming along nicely with around $70000 in profit trading mostly TSLA stock options and some times the stock. Mostly playing on the short side and not long.

Sold 2 calls of TSLA_100215C245 at 6.25

Tesla came out with Model X and looks like market does not know whether to like it or hate it LOL
In pre-market, TSLA stock was trading higher and then it dropped. When it came back, I sold 2 Call options that expire in 3 days. Looking at today's weakness, I am okay with some short positions. Looks like a big sell off is about to come in Tesla stock IMHO.
