For bulls with spare $$ looking for lower risk/reward trade ideas, current prices actually provide for some great opportunities. For example, one can sell a 1k strike put expiring Jan 2023 (exactly 1 year) for more than $23k premium.

If price close above 1k in Jan 2023 (likely scenario), that's already more than 23% return in a year. If not, most would be happy to buy at less than $770 per share cost basis in 2023!

Next, use this $23k to buy 23 shares immediately or even leap calls (if you are feeling lucky) to further increase potential returns.
If let's said I sell a 1k strike for a year. 1 year later on the last day if tsla price is 1050, do I need to come out money to closed the position? Cox sometimes I see above the strike price on expired date still need to pay some $ to closed the position. Not sure how they caculate

Cannot be, if above strike price definitely no need to pay to close. I have options expiring every week.

On expiry (market close). When the options is otm. You do not need to close the position. Your broker will automatically close it at $0 cost.

Just bought some more shares at 945.. $910 put expiring next week. Betting on awesome earnings to profit on my put.

What you intend to do with the puts if it ends ITM?

Market down a few years also good. Those impatient will run crying haha. Time to seperate the veterans and the kiddos.

Need your views and expertise.
Fundamentally has the company changed for the worse at 1200 last year and 940+ now? No.

Deliveries smash expectations? Yes.
Analysts revising EPS up? Yes.

Why are we down now? Fed taper tantrums and rate hikes and they should be priced in within the next week after fed speaks. It's a macro issue and it's affecting every company right now. This is a discount at below 1000, much less below 950. Sure it could go further down to below 900 temporarily but are you sure you can time the market bottom? At below 900, with your thinking cfm will say it will go below 800 and further down to buy, even below your target price. Chances of you missing the rebound with your thinking? High.

Market always overreact on both the downside and upside. I think we're overreacting to the downside now and this is a good opportunity. Sure it can test lows at 890 in dec but if it doesnt, you're missing the boat again.

Unless fundamentally the company has changed for the worse, i dont see why anyone shouldnt include tesla in their portfolio. The delivery numbers and execution is there for everyone to see. It is light years ahead of any of its competitors as evident by their EV delivery numbers. Look at ford, Rivian and GM, what a joke. They would be lucky to even have 2021 Tesla's delivery numbers in 2030.
