Mvis looks like its petering out.
Dpls looks like its gearing up. I'm probably wrong on both. |

Woke up from a weird dream last night.
Picture this in dreamland....... Sat down and picked up my laptop. Pop it open and open up my trading app. MVIS, SENS and DPLS are on my dashboard right now. Freaking MVIS has done a hockey stick on the chart. I'm like "meh" it happens. The chart has automatic scaling to it. Grab my glasses and start looking closer. The MVIS chart scale is $15ish to $100 and Mavis had tailed off to something in the $80's. The first thought in my head was "How do I explain to the Wife that I dumped 20% of MVIS yesterday to average down a bit because we were just in one of those $13-$16 cycles for the last two weeks and I thought it was safe!!" |

The CPI everyone was waiting for was just not terrible enough to tank shit so everything popped green pre-market.
The volume for MAVIS is just so flat, 5.3K right now. Weeklies from Fri did NOT fully resolve yesterday, maybe they'll resolve today? I'm looking for the early pop, then the shorties pushing a dip, and hopefully more buying after 11. But then again this is MAVIS and there really is no normal. |

New to options trading and been selling some covered calls on a few stocks I own.
This is the first time I have considered doing this.... Can you sell shares of a stock that you have a contract on without buying back the contract? |

Can you sell shares of a stock that you have a contract on without buying back the contract? View Quote Short answer is no you can't. < assuming as you said the contract is a covered call. You need to keep 100 shares for each call contract (1 call = 100 shares). If the call contract is exercised you have to sell those 100 shares for the strike price so they are needed and being covered calls you must have them set aside. |

Can you sell shares of a stock that you have a contract on without buying back the contract? View Quote Only if you have naked options trading approval - requires a margin acct and the highest options approval level from your broker. Your long shares are securing your ability to deliver on an assignment of the contract, which could theoretically happen at any time. If you don't have the shares, you need to have sufficient assets and the strategy needs to be suitable to have a naked short call. One way to get around this could be to turn the short call into a debit or credit spread by buying a call contract above or below your strike price (again, assumes margin account and appropriate options approval - but usually not as high as naked options). In this case, you'd be long a call and short your current call, which would free up your shares to be sold without being naked the call. Depending on your sentiment (bullish/bearish) could determine whether your long strike is above or below the current strike of your short call. In some cases though, it may just be cheaper to buy back your call to sell the shares - up to you! |

I am honestly, looking for an exit because I see it getting stale and then trending back down. I'll keep swing trading it and I do like the idea of keeping a core position. It's an interesting play for the future. It's not a P&D. |

How are you guys getting opening orders on NSAV?
TD still telling me the DTC Chill is in effect. It doesn't seem to matter whether it's 100k or 1k order size. |
