Sold the 36/48 15 delta put/19 delta call for 1.18 to delta under hedge; scratch at 2.44; delta/theta 5.17/2.57.Trade ativo
Sold the 47C to under hedge for .38; delta/theta 20.18/3.16; scratch at 2.82.Trade ativo
Sold the 45C to under hedge for .57. Scratch at 3.39.Trade ativo
Taking off the 45 for .03. The remaining calls have gone no bid, but will take those off at the earliest opportunity, since they're tying up buying power. Selling a 38 against for .49. Scratch at 3.88 with the resulting setup: 36/37P-38/47/48/50C.Trade ativo
(Late Post): My best guess is that price doesn't come back above my short put strikes by expiry, so will likely be assigned on the 36's and 37's with a cost basis of 34.56. In preparation for this, went out to September (there is no June, currently) to sell the 32's against for a .60/contract credit with a resulting cost basis of 33.96, so slightly below cost basis.Trade ativo
Pulled off the September 32's for .20/contract, opting to sell something closer in time -- the June 24's for 1.10/contract. I haven't been assigned shares yet, but when I do, they'll have a cost basis of 33.96 + .20 - 1.10 = 33.06. The strike selection is naturally quite aggressive and below cost basis.Trade ativo
Rolling the June 24's out to the July 25's and selling the July 24 puts against for a .01/contract debit to finance. Clearly got a smidge too aggressive with the short call. Lol. Scratch at 33.07.Nota
Rather, 33.05 scratch ... .Trade ativo
As expected, assigned 200 shares with a cost basis of 33.05 that is partially covered with a 25 short call out in July, along with a 24 short put that was used to finance strike improvement. Will proceed to cover the remaining shares shortly ... .Trade ativo
Selling the July 33's for .59, which covers the rest of my shares. Cost basis is 33.05 - .59/2 (since I'm covering only half the total number of shares with this partial) or 32.74.Trade ativo
And ... managing the 24/25 covered strangle aspect by rolling it out to August (the July 24P doesn't have much juice left in it) to the 25/26 for a .10 credit. Cost basis of 32.74 - .10/2 = 32.69.Trade ativo
Rolled the July 33 to the August 33 for a .74 credit. Cost basis of 32.69 - .74/2 = 32.32. Will continue to work the other short call up over time.Trade ativo
With very little extrinsic left in the 25/26 covered strangle aspect of this trade, rolling from the August 21st 25/26 to the October 16th 27 short straddle for .25. Cost basis of 32.32 - .25/2 = 32.20.Trade ativo
Rolled the August 21st 33's as is to September today for a .55 credit on traverse of the short call strike. Cost basis of 32.20 - .55/2 = 31.93. I'm fine with being called away, but wanted to milk a smidge more out of it before that happens. Assuming it does, that will leave me with the October 27P/27C covered straddle with a cost basis of 31.93.
