The trade results and did it meet expectations?
Why did I BUY BACK this CCW when its pretty much 100% sure 3M was not going to close above $160 ... well, getting $2.95 for this CCW and paying back a mere 0.30 cents ... I thought for 0.30 cents, lets take this off the board and now see what we can get for another strike price and expiration ... I'm guessing, even in these markets I can find a better premium then waiting for this 0.30 cents to clear ... My cost basis is much MUCH lower so I can write strikes closer to where 3M is trading ... I wont because I don't want to lose the work/profits I done/made ... we'll research the strikes and see where to go from here ... and if by the grace of God the news isn't as bad for the virus the markets will move higher and this one will be a good buy back all things considered.
