Tuesday 11 August 2026 Morning Notes

No trades of note yesterday but it was great to see SYM drop right off the bat and more than cover the straddle I had on Friday. Classic.

Monday 10 August 2026 Morning Notes

Traded two straddles on Friday, one in AXON that I flipped for +11% because I didn't think it was going to go anywhere, only to watch it run for over +150%. Meanwhile, I traded a straddle in SYM only to watch it trade in its tightest range in years following earnings, resulting in a -76% loss. Good times. I flipped a bunch of short puts in DOCS on Friday following a brief vol spike on its monster move higher. Always feels like playing with fire. 

Bunch of biotech names making big moves on FDA decisions this morning.

Friday 07 Aug 2026 Morning Notes

I'm back after a mini-vacation of sorts. I pretty much refuse to go anywhere on a weekend and will only vacation midweek, not worth dealing with crowds.
