Starting this new journal series to summarise my options trade for any particular day.

5 April 24 Trades

[Trade 1] Bought 3 x Micron CALL

I added 3 more positions to my original 5 positions of Micron Buy CALL contracts, with an expiration date of 20 Sept 24, at SP of USD200. I believe Micron will continue to do well in this AI revolution. The management had given good forecast for the year ahead and possibly beyond. Further read below on how Micron will benefit and contribute to the AI revolution.

[Trade 2] Convert 7 x Palantir SELL CALL into SELL PUT Contracts

One of the biggest mistakes that I made in trading year 2023 was to sell Covered CALL (CC) on all my shares when the stock market was bottoming and was about to start its bull run. I sold CC on Palantir when it was trading below USD10 and had since been stuck on those CC contracts for more than a year (since Jan 23).

So today I decided to convert 7 of my SELL CALL contracts into 7 SELL PUT contracts, at the expense of $8k liquidity drop. However, my 700 shares are now free to be sold (no longer bounded by the covered call contracts that went wrong) as I near my breakeven price for Palantir (USD26.79).

[Trade 3] Rolling 1 x Tesla SELL CALL Contract

When I opened these positions, it was ATM SELL CALL at USD165 which later became ITM SELL CALL when Tesla share price rose. I rolled one contract to a later date to make it OTM with the goal of letting it expire worthless on expiration date.
