Got smoked in a PATH post-earnings straddle on Friday as it traded in the tightest range it has ever traded following ER, classic. Also got burnt on an outright put buy on GERN, which was up +75%. Typically has paid off fading large postive gap-up moves in the name, but not Friday. The GERN trade being a complete bust doesn't ruffle my feathers nearly as much as the PATH trade, that one is just downright frustrating. My VZIO position was called away, but that was just a small layup of a trade. I may look to enter a similar position in the name.
Earnings season essentially slows to a crawl this week with only a handful of decent names reporting. We're also looking at 33 days until April opex.

Wednesday 13 March 2024 Morning Notes
Flipped some calls and puts in RGLS yesterday, shorted the $5 strike calls and bot then sold the $2.5 strike puts. These garbage biotechs offer some interesting opportunities for the little guy.

Tuesday 12 Mar 2024 Morning Notes
No trades of note yesterday, got a few names reporting earnings this AM. Options aside, last night's Indian Wells match between Djokovic and "lucky loser" Luca Nardi was absolutely unbelievable. Has to be one of the all-time greatest upsets of tennis history. I don't think there was a person on the planet who thought that Nardi would be able to knock out Djokovic, certainly the odds makers weren't expecting that one with a bettor paying $2500 to win $100 on a Djokovic victory.. ouch! Harley Bassman would call that bet "negatively convex"
