Selling puts on $SMCI into earnings, thoughts?

asked by u/fx_quant_lee · 2d · 4 answers

Thinking about selling $SMCI 700P expiring 2/23. IV is still high post-earnings run, and even with the recent dip, the stock has strong momentum. Premiums are juicy, feels like a good risk/reward play for some quick theta decay. Hoping to capture that IV crush.

    Careful, $SMCI can be volatile. Theta gang likes this but make sure you can take assignment.

    Good idea, I'm looking at the 680P for a bit more buffer. Premiums are still decent there.

    Solid play if you're comfortable with the underlying. What's your comfort level on assignment?

    IV is high, but so is the risk of a gap down if market sentiment shifts. Might be better to sell a spread.
