$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ Just two weeks ago, META dipped to a low of 520, but the recovery since then has been incredible to watch. The share price has surged roughly 100 dollars, representing a massive 19.2% jump in just 14 days, hitting 620 at the time of this writing. After such a rapid and aggressive bounce back from those March lows, it makes me wonder if we have finally found the definitive floor on META.
$ASML 20260717 1360.0 CALL$ I opened this call exactly a week ago as a quick in-and-out play, but the share price turned lower almost immediately after my entry, putting the trade in the red. Fortunately, the positive shift in the geopolitical landscape has completely revived the market today, turning what looked like a losing position into a solid win overnight. I capitalized on the sharp bounce to take profits this morning, and I am already looking at my next move with a new contract on the way.
$ASML 20260417 1680.0 CALL$ $ASML 20260417 1680.0 CALL$ I am currently hedging my underwater long call position by shorting a call option expiring next Friday. Since it is earnings week for ASML, the implied volatility is through the roof, allowing me to capture a very healthy premium even at a strike price that remains quite far out of the money. If we see a massive rally on the news, my long call might finally have the legs to turn positive, but if the earnings report underwhelms, I will simply pocket the premium from this short call and look for other tactical adjustments to manage the long position.

$HIMS 20260402 30.0 CALL$ I managed to capture some decent premium by selling a covered call on HIMS during that recent price spike fueled by the Novo Nordisk deal news. While the stock has since surrendered a good portion of those gains, the strategy worked out exactly as intended for this cycle since the call expired worthless. This allowed me to pocket the full premium and lower my cost basis while the volatility was high, providing a nice cushion as the price action begins to settle back down.
$NVDA 20260402 165.0 PUT$ With NVDA continues to range bounded. Selling of options either short put or call position continues to be rather profitable Despite the share price has gone nowhere for months now.
$SPY 20260402 618.0 PUT$ Aside from selling CSP on SPY via daily 0DTE whenever opportunity arises, have been selling weekly CSP too. Especially when there's a sharp downturn, as this CSP will become very profitable once the stock bounces back within a day or 2 along with time decay, the short put position usually turns profitable real fast. This put was very much worthless by the 3rd day after opening however still holding till it expires worthless keeping the full premium Collected.

$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ I’ve held this lot of AMD for quite some time, and it spent a significant period underwater while the share price languished below the $100 mark. Even after it finally climbed back above my strike, the price stayed stagnant for a while, so I focused on selling covered calls to generate some side income and hedge against that frustrating sideways movement. Everything changed last October when the price action took a sharp turn and spiked, leaving my covered calls deep in the money and resulting in several lots at a different brokerage being called away because they became too difficult to roll. I’ve been holding onto this final lot for dear life, and after months of rolling, my last
$ASML 20260717 1320.0 CALL$ Was meant to be a quick in out trade with this ASML call option. When the market was down on last Friday, entered this contract thinking market may bounce back towards end of the same day, however, the market tanked. This call was badly damaged. luckily we have time in our hand. Held it now for 4 days, the trade has turned around, closing this with a tidy profit. 🍀😝
