WHY I CLOSED this CSP Trade > With this Market I'm not really sure if we go higher or lower but with PayPal out of the money trading at $75.x and my put being $72.50 having almost $800 in profit on the table we're going to take this profit and we're going to then roll this money for a possible additional cash secure put not sure what strike but with this being $800 a profit I'm taking it and we'll move on

WHY I CLOSED this CSP Trade > Feeling this is a great opportunity to take off about $900 in profit off the table we're going to go ahead and do that and we're going to look to roll this money possibly either buying shares writing a covered call or another cash secure put although this doesn't meet my -50% will still take it because it's $900 in this very short window of 5 days when it comes to cash secure puts you take the profits where you can this Market's unpredictable what's very predictable is the $900 I had on the table so I took it
