At 10:19am I placed an order to buy 60 contracts of TSLA $240.00 Put... Was a market order and still didn't fucking place. So I canceled a couple minutes later. I would've made $20k.

At 10:47am I bought 32 contracts of TSLA $235.00 Put @ $279.00 per contract. TSLA skyrocketed ten fucking dollars right after.

At 11:17am I couldn't take it anymore and sold all 32 contracts of TSLA $235.00 Put for an average of $54.00 per contract.

-$7,200 in 28 minutes. Tesla has beaten me down in the equity in my model 3 performance, in the stock market, and now in the form of options. I hate you Tesla.

Technically I left money on the table on puts today but 120% gain is absolutely crazy. And that’s what I secured. So I’m happy, I’ve got a new put position I’m holding until Monday. Let’s see how that goes…

Those are annoying since they don't move as much as you think they should.

Booked 25% on Vix Apr 15 futures today. Twas moving way too much for me to be comfortable.
