The trade results and did it meet expectations?
OK, I HAVE A PLAN ... might not work out for me but I have a plan nonetheless ... so UPRO at the time I bought back this option ... THIS option was trading for $3.20 ... it ONLY HAD 0.36 cents of time value, expiring this Friday. YES, UPRO will probably close ABOVE my strike of $36 so my shares will be taken ... but I BOUGHT BACK this option because I have BIGGER ideas ... I'm going to pocket this meager $323 bucks as a profit ... BUT I'm going to now BUY 500 MORE shares and will write another CC on UPRO playing the game ... I know I NEVER BUY BACK adding to my cost basis (meaning I always sell the shares) but in the case I didn't add to my CB so I feel I can really work this for the next 30 days ... more to come as I BUY more shares and write that next call ... as for now, only the buy back has happened.
