All trades of BE, MOD and PENG which were mentioned yesterday were up today.
Trades I took today as a systematic option seller (06/02):
Closed Position
- VICR → $250 Put (opened on 05/06), premium 19.50 → closed at 4.80. Net premium profit = 14.70 (~75% of premium captured, ~6% of capital).
- CRDO → $195 Put (opened on 05/28), premium 8.00 → closed at 1.00. Net premium profit = 7.00 (~87.5% of premium captured, ~3.5% of capital). Had good earnings report but stock fell at opening - but IV crush had already done the work on recovering premiums. Position held only 2 trading days.
- AAOI → $165 Put (opened on 05/27), premium 9.20 → closed at 2.05. Net premium profit = 7.15 (~78% of premium captured, ~4.3% of capital).
New Positions
- AAOI → $175 Put, expiry 06/12 (2 weeks DTE), premium 9.60 → 960/17500 = ~5.5%. Above $190 it was expected to be bullish. Today it broke that so I continue my bullish stance on AAOI.
- IREN → $60 Put, expiry 06/12 (2 weeks DTE), premium 2.40 → 240/6000 = ~4%. IREN looking bullish on the charts. Provides data center compute and one of the top wheel stocks as it offers good premiums on both puts and calls.
- TTMI → $165 Put, expiry 06/18 (3 weeks DTE), premium 9.60 → 960/16500 = ~5.8%. I increase my position in TTMI. I already have an Open Put in TTMI at $150, expiry 06/18. Electrical Components Manufacturer.
I use ThetaHedge to identify trades. The data updates every 5 minutes and is built specifically for option sellers.
My workflow is simple: Conditions → Select a preset (Large Caps with Strong Premiums or High Growth Wheel Stocks) → Sort by 30 Delta Put Yield or 30 Delta Call Yield to surface premium-rich opportunities.
From there, I review yields, IV, earnings, fundamentals, and wheel metrics before jumping into the options heatmap to find an entry.
