$SOFI 20251219 25.0 PUT$ SoFI: selling new put when SoFI is weak today on news that it's selling $1.5 billion of common stocks at $27.5. This has a dilutive effect on the existing stock holders. At the same time, SoFI is also a potential candidate for S&P inclusion as it among the companies that fulfill the criteria. Speculative elements for including yet the reward could be good if it landed on the right side of the trade.
$PLTR 20251205 170.0 PUT$ PLTR: take profit. Hitting almost 95% of max premium collection and this short put is expiring this Fri 5th Dec. Market is flattish and opened slightly lower. PLTR also trades close to the strike of $170, well within 1 ATR so decided to close and secure profit instead of milking the final few extra dollars.
$NVDA 20251205 170.0 PUT$ NVDA: taking profit when market opens a bit weaker on the 1st trading day in Dec. NVDA went as low as $173.68 and within striking distance to the put at $170. Not willing to risk assignment and while the premium decay is still in my favor, decided to close the trade and secure the profit instead. Price has recovered slightly at posting, am happy with the decision to prioritise risk management over excessive risk taking.
$RDDT 20251205 180.0 PUT$ RDDT: take profit after achieving 96% of maximum premium collection about 1 week ahead of expiry on 5th Dec. Sold this out when RDDT was weak alongside market sell off last few weeks, glad to have entered on the low and now collecting the rewards.
$SOFI 20251128 26.0 PUT$ sharing profitable options trade to earn weekly coins. Going to expire this Friday so it's almost fully depleted. Slight scare last week when it dipped to $23.52 last week and was in the money with strike $26. Price recovered sharply this whole week and it trades above strike so I'm going to let it expire worthless since Fri is only half day trading due to Thanksgiving holidays.
