I called hitting 15 before another surge... glad I waited before buying back in, in for a few hundred at 15 this morning...
Of course we have no idea what the true bottom of this dip is, but we shall see. |

Someone help me out. I sold cash secured puts on MVIS at $16 and $15.50. I want to roll them forward. Schwab gives me an option called a "Rollout" under "Strategy". Is this what I want?
When I select the rollout option, the default is "sell to close" as the first move, then "buy to open" as the second. Shouldn't I be buying to close at the original strike and then selling to open for the new strike price? I originally sold to open. Also, if that is correct, my buy to close option should be for the original expiration, correct? |

Or are you typically willing to pay a small premium to roll forward and get a lower strike price? Or do you sell to open your new position at the same strike but new expiration to pocket more premium? |

I had a good faith violation last week or the week before from doing a roll and not having settled funds. Are you using the "roll" function or doing the trade yourself? In Merrill I have the ability to build multi-leg options so I have to do it that way. In that case, yes, you will get the good faith violation if you don't have enough funds to cover a portion of the contract. I'm not sure about using the "roll" function in any other application. On Think or Swim I've always had the funds when I've rolled so I've never received a violation. |

I netted about $140 premium for rolling out the 7 contracts. Another plus is I freed up over $1k in cash that I had to keep aside to cover the previous puts. |

Crazy close for NEGG, was bouncing off $79 and settled around $71 in the last hour.

I don't care if it exercises as long as I'm not past my break even. Rolling out I get some more premium to play with. It's basically old premium - cost to buy back+new premium = total premium I've been paid. It's best to do this on a huge downswing day that you think will recover or the last day of contract. |

But I don't know how much of a gamble I should take. If you were using your disposable money. How many shares would you buy? A lot of us are long in SENS. Personally, my holdings are 4,183 shares. I also have puts on SENS, that’s 300 more shares I would be just fine with it executing at my $3 strike price this Friday. My cost basis is $2.82 a share. |

Selling those August $15 puts doesn't look like it was such a hot strategy now.

I don’t mind if it hits I guess, but I’d much rather the five covered call contracts with the strike of $16 that I also placed today hits. I hate playing sweet Mavis like this, but it is what it is, and she needs to learn. |

Real time pricing my ass.
Put a buy order in for MVIS when it was in the $14.80s. My buy was for $14.70. It executed at $14.68. Not complaining. They're the first sub $15 shares I've scored in a while. But still, did it drop so fast, right past my order? Lol. |

They are pretty confident it's going to get approved here because they are hiring a sales team. They are also working on a longer term sensor. |

And could see $20-40. There's alot to like on the surface. I'm familiar with diabetes. My mother in law uses a dexcom. This company we are talking about is partnering up with the company that makes countour blood sugar meters. They are big. My concerns with them though is that they have to get doctors on board with implanting people with the device. And the fda already approved a 90 day model in 2018. If it was that big it seems like my mother in law would have at least heard of it. She has pretty serious diabetes and has lost an eye from it. I don't think it's as safe a bet as others but I'm pretty risk adverse. |

I was curious about how MVIS has been doing relative to other stocks mentioned here. Now, this may not be entirely fair, as all these stocks have done quite well due themselves (though BSQR surprised me).
No idea why the table formatting does this weird spacing thing.
