WHY I CLOSED this PMCC CCW Trade - this option fell from $1.68 to 0.22 with 16 days left ... lets close it and look to get another one for December as this LEAPS will expire in January so I need to try to get at least 2 more CCW on it
WHAT'S THE PLAN NOW FOR THESE MMM SHARES?
Because I didn't roll these shares for another CCW, I'm just going to take a 'wait and see' approach as the markets aren't playing nice right now.

DETAILS FOR THIS COVERED CALL TRADE
Today, (11) Covered Call contract(s) were sold on ProShares UltraPro QQQ (ticker: TQQQ) for the Nov-25 Expiration Date, $25.00 Strike Price for a Premium of $0.51 TQQQ was trading for $21.00 a share.
I have owned these shares with an original cost basis of $41.00
PREMIUM ONLY TRADE
Because I received my shares through a CSP much higher, if my shares are taken I will not make any money on the sale of the shares at this strike price.

WHY I OPENED this CCW > Looking to put these TQQQ shares into the game, I pick this OTM strike (cant really say its deep OTM because TQQQ can really move) so this trade will be managed as I can not let my shares go as that would be a loser trade, my cost basis is $41.00

WHY I CLOSED this PMCC CCW Trade > XLF has fallen , my option has fallen -70% of its value in this very short window ... I probaly could have let this run a little longer without a buy back but have decided to ROLL it down.

WHY I CLOSED this PMCC CCW Trade > 0.01 or $1.00 to close this 5 days early ... I can do that ... now will look to ROLL this ... I might even ADD another LEAPS to this trade to make the premiums more worth the risk :)

WHY I CLOSED this PMCC CCW Trade > this one was scary BUT I bought back and made a tiny krum ... but here's what I kicked myself ... I could have bought back for 0.07 cents ... instead I played chicken, left my computer for a jog and came back and had to buy back double the cost as I had to leave for a fam event ... ugh! Anyway, no shares taken, we move on, will ROLL Monday
Oct-282$35.00$0.49-$130.00
WHY I CLOSED this PMCC CCW Trade > I could ROLL this for a credit BUT, with XLF having a heck of a recent rally, and with just (2) months of LEAPS Call time left ... I'm going to take this -5% on the position and reboot and think about using this money elsewhere. If I had to do it again, I would not have picked the XLF ... but this Spider is a steady eddie play and I might re-visit it again in 2023
