Bored, and want to live dangerously?
Company I've been in for 14 years is in it's death throes...got pounded by the 'Rona. They own a wall of patents on MEMS laser projection and LIDAR, and just signed an agreement with MSFT last week to transfer manufacture of the light engine in Hololens II to a royalty agreement. The next day 50M shares traded...and there are only 150M shares total for the company. Looks now like they were cleaning up for a sale/merger because... ..."MVIS-Today announced it has retained investment banking firm Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC to serve as its financial advisor as it explores various licensing and other strategic alternatives, including a potential sale or merger of the company." Selling this morning at .22 to .23 a share. Speculation is rampant about what a sale would bring, because potential suitors include MSFT, Apple, STM, Sony and others. Read this thread carefully to see what's going on!...and don't gamble money you can't afford to lose. A reverse-split is also still on the table, and those almost always destroy shareholder value*. ETA: *"destroy shareholder value" is a euphemism for "individual investor loses his shirt". MVIS retains Craig Hallum Full disclosure: I hold 30K shares at an .84 ASP. If they sell for a buck a share I make beer money. If it goes for $5 I make Porsche money. Point is, at .23 right now a buck sale will be a three bagger... UPDATE: CEO just sent out a memo begging shareholders to vote "yes" on the reverse split...heavy implication is they're getting hammered by "no" votes, and the motion won't pass, or is in serious danger. MVIS Reddit is lighting up. I won't pretend to fully understand the repercussions, but it sure is entertaining. If you have proxy voting rights, please use them and support the vote of no confidence on item 3! Go here and do some (non-technical) Reddit reading. Emotions running high. Share is up 28% as I type.

Its just in reverse Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Glock63: Originally Posted By myfakename: Covered calls are pretty easy and I'm not stock savvy at all. Not touching puts yet. No sir. Selling puts is just as simple. Its just in reverse And the settlement account money mostly flows out of my account (or tries to unless I roll) about 35-40% of the time when I sell them. Definitely reverse of my calls.  I’ve sold hundreds of calls so far (obviously I’m new, that’s not a lot), and only three have expired ITM. Of those I pushed out two and let the one that was too expensive to buy back get called away. That was RIOT, she’s a mean bitch but the volatility has me on the winning side of her...for now. Of the puts. Well, that’s a different story. Still mostly fun though, and I’m still up. |

I have a really dumb question regarding selling covered calls with Vanguard.
The "Limit Price" is the minimum premium I will accept for the contract, NOT the strike price. Is this correct? |

The limit price is the price you are willing to sell the option contract. Yes, it ends up being the premium per share but that’s not what it is…just being pedantic so you don’t get terms confused. I take that back, there is one dumb question, “How high will it go?”

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Vengeance6661: Where did he get the $60 from? And why such a nice even number? Why not $61 or $63? There was a great deal of speculation on the value of Microvision in the event of a buy-out. A $10b valuation divided by the outstanding number of shares = $60. This was all before the company decided to go it alone/couldn't find a buyer at an acceptable price. |

That is the execution price + premium received.... what you're technically selling the shares at if the calls execute. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RyanEsstac: Only reason I'm not selling puts. I'd rather accumulate stocks and sell calls on them. I'm on track to add 30% more shares of mvis to one of my accounts by selling puts over the last 8 weeks if i so choose. Ive just been rolling them down and out as mvis floats downward, collecting significant premiums. Ive honestly done better selling puts than calls as far as dollar value goes. I can't decide whether to continue this strategy, or transition to shares in advance of the conference if my $14' puts expire Friday. I'm leaning towards shares. Thoughts? |

I also notice it has a max gain, break even, and marked unlimited loss on the bottom. Unlimited ? I think that is just because I would be missing out of possible unlimited gains if it rocketed. This is just for a covered call, I have no interest in shorting anything. Lastly it has order value minus commission on the last page before submitting, that is my premium that I will collect ?

Anybody playing with SAVA? It's been on a rocket this year, but somebody just filed a lawsuit saying their clinical data is flawed. Down 20% in pre-market. I did a little DD and the general consensus seems to be that it's manipulation to tank the stock, but I don't know if I want to dip my toe in or not.

I think I get it. But I want to be sure. Sorry for the poorly formatted reply. I’m on my phone right now. Yes, contracts that we will be using sell in 100 share increments. So 1 contract is for 100 shares. Yes, the strike price is the price you will receive per share if it’s exercised. Your trading software, mine doesn’t either, doesn’t take into account what you own. In theory if you didn’t have the shares to sell, your loss would be unlimited because there’s no defined peak. It could go to $100 or $1000 or $1,000,000 and you would be on the hook to buy the shares to sell at the strike/exercise point if you didn’t already own them. Pedantic point but the premium is yours. All of it. The commission is the devils cut. I don’t think your gains/losses take into account the commission but you should. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. We’re here to help!

Like the poster said a few posts up, I wouldn't want to accidentally sell 100 shares for say $25 if I am looking for $25 each. just make sure the strike price you select is higher than your average cost per share, this will prevent you from losing on the deal I also notice it has a max gain, break even, and marked unlimited loss on the bottom. Unlimited ? I think that is just because I would be missing out of possible unlimited gains if it rocketed. This is just for a covered call, I have no interest in shorting anything. only real risk is as you mentioned if the stock sky rockets above your strike price, you can lose out on gains you would have realized if you didn't have the share tied up with the covered call contract. As others have said you can roll but it becomes a balancing act if the price is rocketing the buy to close will cost more, worst case you just let them get called away if you don't want to roll or don't have the funds to roll Lastly it has order value minus commission on the last page before submitting, that is my premium that I will collect ? yes, premium is the value after they take the commission I think I get it. But I want to be sure. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RatherBeLifting: I’d love to see your list. I was out floating the river all day with family. Looks like I missed a good day based on my P/L for the day. Here are a few inverse S&P500 ETFs that I am interested in. I am trying to make some decisions so I can have some money waiting when I think the market is ready and move cash there until we hit bottom. Proshares - SPXU 3x leveraged SH 1x SDS 2x Exponential ETFs - RVRS reverse cap weighted Direxion - SPDN daily 1x SPXS daily 3x @RatherBeLifting |

I’ve been out of the loop for a while (just moved from 6000sqft lot suburbia to a few acres in the country), what’s the reason for the rise over the last few days? Has there been any actual developments or is it just trending along with the rest of the market + speculation?
I haven’t even looked at a chart in like 3 weeks
