I was in it for 10 days and made a profit of $15,100. I sold it for 2 reasons. One, I always like to lock in profit, and I felt, after a crazy run, Apple would give a little back. Yesterday the stock didn&#8217;t go down, but it didn&#8217;t go up much either. Today the stock opened down about $6. With the stock down I just bought the 5 contracts again. I want to own LEAPS going into the split but I like grabbing profit along the way. Will I sell these 5 contracts before Friday? Who knows? If there&#8217;s an opportunity to grab more profit, I might! Today I bought 5 contracts of the 1\/15\/21 $500 Call for a premium of $51.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Buy to Open 5 AAPL 1\/15\/21 $500.00 C @ $51.00<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Let&#8217;s check out Tesla. Yesterday I bought 1 contract of the 1\/15\/21 $2000 Call for a $365 premium. About an hour later I sold that Call for $400 making a profit of $3500. Today at the open Tesla was down about $45.
