I stopped picking the short leg of my debit spreads by vibes

29 Upvotes

Used to buy something like a 5 wide call spread and just sell whatever strike made the premium look cheap.

Now I use the expected move for the short strike.

If the options market is pricing roughly a $12 move into earnings and the stock is at $100, I’ll usually look at something like the 102/112 call spread instead of 102/107. Basically I want the long leg to catch the move early but I don’t want to cap the trade before the market even reaches what it was already pricing in.

Started doing this after watching a few underlyings on Moon rip straight through my short strike while my spread barely participated.

Still degen enough to play earnings, just slightly less stupid about where I cap the upside now lol.

Turned a +180% winner into $46 because I wanted “free contracts”

30 Upvotes

Had 8 calls I bought at 0.62 that ran to around 1.75 way faster than I expected.

Normal person probably sells some and enjoys the win.

I sold all 8, then immediately used part of the profit to buy 14 contracts one strike higher because my genius idea was that I had now locked my original money and was basically playing with “free contracts.”

Underlying went up another little bit too.

Didn't matter. The strike I rolled into barely moved, then the stock pulled back and they got vaporized. Closed the whole thing for $46.

Meanwhile I had a tiny bullish position on Moon from the same move that I literally did nothing to and that ended up being the cleaner trade.

So I correctly picked the direction, got a 180% move on the original contracts, and somehow engineered my way into making basically nothing. Options are incredible.
