Rolling (IRA): IWM May 14th 205 Short Put to June 18th 203

... for a 1.89 credit.

Notes: With only .30 left in the May 14th* 205 (14 days), rolling this out to June 18th (49 days) 203 (16 delta) for a realized gain and a credit, rather than adding more units (i.e., I'd leave this one open to allow the remaining .30 in extrinsic to piss out and just sell a new contract in June). Total credits collected of 6.32 versus a current value in the June 203 contract of 2.18, so I've realized gains of 6.32 - 2.18 or 4.19 ($419) so far.

I would note that "rolling" is the functional equivalent of separately closing and then opening a new contract. It's perfectly fine to do things that way, but doing the "two-step" in a single transaction is just a little cleaner from a tracking standpoint because you will have a single entry/trade for a credit, rather than two trades (one for a debit, one for a credit).

* -- The previous post indicated it was a roll to the May 17th expiry, but should have read the May 14th, as there is no May 17th contract.
