As discussed in the 360 Review on 08/21, I expect continued upside but should be contained within the 3450 and 3350 price levels throughout the week.
LOSS MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to close this position if it either of the short strikes are challenged
PROFIT MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will let this position expire worthless.

With a P/E ratio of 985 and hitting a major 130.9% fib level at the 1925 price level, I expect TSLA to retrace down to the opposite 161.8 level which puts the stock approx. 40% lower down around the 1100 price level.
LOSS MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to close this position if we break above the 1930 price level
PROFIT MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to capture profits around the 1100-1200 price levels which will be the 240-220 level post split which is on 8/31

I expect the energy sector ETF to see an aggressive move towards the $47.00 price level within the next 60-90 days. We discussed this towards the end of the Zones Workshop on 8/12.
LOSS MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to offset risk using short term short calls if we begin to see price migrating below the 36.75 price level
PROFIT MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to capture profits around the 46.75 price level.

As discussed in the Zones Workshop on 8/12, I expect BA to find support on the current pivoting zone it is in and see price migration up into the 200ish price levels over the next 1-2 months. http://tos.mx/Rg3iP0Q
LOSS MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to close this position if we appear to be closing below the pivoting zone (approx. 171.50-170) as seen in the attached chart represented by the dashed purple lines
PROFIT MANAGEMENT PLAN
I will look to allow this position to expire worthless.

CRM has yet to extend up to its 161.8 extension and has confirmed support on the 130.9 after breaking above the past 2 weeks. I expect the stock to continue to rise up to the 161.8 fib level (approx. 214-215 price level). http://tos.mx/dYlUGvq
LOSS MANAGEMENT PLAN
I would look to close the position if the stock appears to be break below the 197.00 price level and not finding support.
PROFIT MANAGEMENT PLAN
I would likely allow this position to expire worthless unless the equity fails to migrate above the 203 price level by Wednesday Aug. 19th. If the latter becomes the reality, I will simply close the position and capture what is available.

*******************ROLLING************************ Getting more time, could see one last pop higher. Original credit $2.55-$0.55 debit to roll, net remaining credit $2.00, new roll debit $0.70 = total new net credit: $1.30 *******************ROLLING************************ Getting more time on this one too, Original credit $2.55-$0.55 debit to roll, net remaining credit $2.00 Per the PMR on 7-7-2020, looks like we are beginning to see confirmation of rejection of these upper levels, placing a bear call to take advantage of the move lower. Going out in time in case we are not "done" at this upper zone.
