코멘트:

Out of the November rung for .13; scratch on the remaining December 30P/January 28P at 2.35 - .13 or 2.22.

액티브 트레이드:

Out of the December 30P for .20 today, with 57 days to go (i.e., I'm not waiting around another 57 days for a mere $20). Scratch at 2.02. 30-day is actually higher than when I initiated the position (now at 46.2% vs. 44.9%), but it's now shot up from a mid-September low of 33.48 to 42.25, which is its mid-August high. Will consider adding if the volatility sticks in there, and we get some weakness.
