Well, good or bad, I'm in the following: UAL May15 34 @ $0.855 average I have a lot of these, so a small move will make good money....
Well, it was so cheap I had to do it, so I added to the following:

UAL May15 34 @ $0.35, bringing the average to $0.60

I had a lot of these before, now I have a buttload.....

"In four state prison systems -- Arkansas, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia -- 96% of the over 3,200 inmates who tested positive for the coronavirus were asymptomatic. That’s according to interviews with officials and records reviewed by Reuters."

Seems the implication of increased testing will be that the virus is very widespread, that most infected people are asymptomatic, that the mortality rate among the infected is lower than thought, maybe as low or lower than common flu..And, the result will be an easing of the fear and a re-opening of economies. If increased testing and news about new therapeutics and vaccines keep ramping up, the stage is being set for extension of the bull rally in equities.

The short VIX trade is back? We could see VXX drop from $40 to <$20 in May. The May15/22 VXX $25 put calendar is $0.04. Jun 19 $21/20 put vert is perhaps $0.01...?

Big ER week coming. If AMZN spikes up, I will look to fade it. Amazon should lose some luster as other shopping options open back up....

In the following: AAL Jun19 15 CALL @ $0.825 average CCL Oct15 25 CALL @ $0.80 Should be good for a little money....especially as we start opening up again....
Out of the following:

CCL Oct15 25 CALL @ $1.10 up from $0.80

AAL May15 11 CALL @ $1.55 up from $0.93

AAL Jun19 15 CALL @ $0.92 up from $0.825

AAL is butting up against some resistance on the Daily and Weekly charts, so now is a good time to get rid of it and get it cheaper by the end of the week. I think we might see some down days for a day or so, so that's cheaper options for CCL, too. I'll hold UAL longer though, as it moves faster...

With the jump today, I wish I would have held on to CCL and AAL a little longer....but, you don't go broke taking a profit....

these could more than make up my losses on wiped out OIL and USO call spreads...

Yeah, I'm still holding my USO in hopes I can eek out another few hundred dollars on it, but it certainly won't be a profit....

...not working out too well so far. When I do these leg-ins, they are always small, in this case a 2-lot. Keeps me out of trouble and self-loathing....
