How MOST 16” Macbook Pros often kill themselves & why they’re unfixable

NVDA will be fascinating tomorrow.
Predictions being worth nothing, mine is that it will actually sell off, the perception being there is much more liquidity in the many-more shares; and will bounce somewhere late in the day and end up relatively flat. Keep in mind, a 10 point hit in the post split sh price would be equal to a 100 point drop unsplit and I suspect that would get some attention.
But this would be a good way to destroy the newbs who just got in very recently and chased it up.
Hahahaha, would you sell an NVDA 1160 put expiring Friday for $16? (I assume this is a 116 put)
Not all brokerages have caught up with the new split price in terms of their options chains.
But I bet there’s a $10-$12 put that would be pretty safe to sell.
AMD was a $2-3 stock for twenty frickin years!
I have actually sold options through a stock split...and I have found that the fair price shakes out at the end regardless of whether a brokerage options chain represents the split or not.
In regards to NVDA through...with the split...it is certainly in my range again to sell options..and the IV is pretty damn high.
I might actually throw my hat in the ring since you pointed it out. I just need to wait for another position to close out this friday and I will start and NVDA position.
I have a rather wealthy friend whom I “advise” on an informal basis. You could say, we just talk about stocks. But I also make some recos. My big winner for him was finding PBF at $9.60. And SPY at $305, killer trade bottom of COVID. I’ve had some losers, make no mistake. He tends to have almost zero selling discipline and he’ll dca down on losers which I detest. I screamed at him for months to sell his BA at 450+, he just never would.
But I introduced him to put selling. We’ve sold TSLA puts easily a dozen times, all of which worked. That worked great, until TSLA really settled down. Now we can’t get more than a couple bucks for OTM puts and that’s not enough to get him interested.
I got him to buy $53 SCHW on the STE bank blowout.
The market, screaming as it is, is showing stupendously low IV and I can’t find anything to safely sell puts on. I haven’t checked, but the rally since last October is without question one for the record books.
I normally will sell 30 to 40 DTE on big stocks like AAPL, GOOG, AMZN..ect, and I will shoot for about a 25 delta put.
Then...I also hedge fore a 2 standard deviation move just to take some of the tail risk out of it.
It means less profit....but I protect against crazy/fast moves downward like TSLA has done since it peaked at like 250.
