Sold to open 4 puts of TSLA_110615P230 at $4.95

I didn't anticipate the stocks to respond this positively to the lack luster earnings. Few minutes before market closed yesterday, it seemed that no one wanted to buy this stock! Seemed like there were some significant liquidations or fresh short sales. Now look today, the situation has changed. Everyone wants TSLA today! Colors change faster in stock market than one would ever think. 

As I expected the Tesla stock to go down, I had some Call options sale. There is no way, I can make profit out of it so starting to sale PUT options. Here is one sale! I am going to watch how TSLA trades today!

Sold 200 shares of TSLA at $229.98 on 11/03/2015.

Earnings are out! Earnings are not that great but the stock is up 10%. I can't understand why it went up! Company lost $228m on 11k cars sold (13k cars made) during the quarter. That is like around $18k lost on each car sold! This makes Tesla cars one of the best deals out there in car industry! You can buy at product around 20% below cost!

I had 200 Tesla stocks long position. I just sold it after market at $230! No net positions but I need to be prepared for selling 400 TSLA stocks at 210 and another 400 at 222.5 this Friday! I hope the stock closes the week around $210! I will be watching the Open and Close price of TSLA tomorrow!

Sold to open 2 puts of TSLA_110615P195 at $4

Tesla earnings to be announced in few minutes. The stock dropped from $212 (I missed an order to sell my 200 stocks by few cents) to $208 over few minutes. At that price, I am willing to buy 200 Tesla stocks that I sold yesterday at 195 -$4=$191. Hence sold 2 195 Put options and collected around $800 in premimum!

Last few trades before I conclude #TSLA4Tesla project!

Sold 200 shares of TSLA at $213.94 on 11/02/2015.

Thank God! I was stuck with 200 Tesla stocks that I had to buy for $212.50 when the Put options that I had sold last week were exercised! The options gave me around $1000 so I am glad I got a chance to reduce my position in wake of Tesla Earnings tomorrow! I hope the earnings are in Arian's favor in project #TSLA4Tesla #TradingwithAPurpose
