AAPL - short straddle

Hooray for the iPhone 7!  Does it really not have a headphone jack?  Anyways, pre-order sales have been stronger than expected which has driven AAPL higher over the past week.  Oddly enough, IV has risen as well.  We all know what that means—straddles!


I opened up an October 115 short straddle at $6.30 when IV was ~21.5%.  I actually got filled at $6.305 (yay for dark pools!).  I’ll be targeting $4.30 as an exit, hopefully in the next 10-14 days.
