Friday 19 April 2024 Morning Notes

I saw this every time, but I can't believe it's already April opex! Man, time absolutely flies. Flipped a bunch of dumb vol trades in PRI following the Bear Cave short report.

Y'day Other News: Bear Cave short report on Primerica (PRI) sent shares down 10%, but sent implied volatility up +1000% to around 400% from 40%. I think that was in reaction to the recent grenade of a report in GL, but the GL report was far worse of a read than the PRI report.

I wasn't around at all yesterday to trade, but I'll be around for a bit this morning. I saw ASML's report dragged down many other names in the space yesterday. Yikes!

Tuesday 16 Apr 2025 Morning Notes

My only trade of note was a small vol scalp on ONVO Apr 2.5 calls, selling them for .20 and buying them back for .10. They'll expire worthless, but why take the chance. Meh.
