Today, (5) Cash Secured Put contract(s) bought back on Alibaba Group Holding Ltd - ADR (ticker: BABA) for the Jun-30-2023 Expiration Date, $84.00 Strike Price for a Premium of $2.50 > BABA was trading for $86.00 a share. Because I bought this option back early, I did not make max profit. The final profit / cash flow collected it posted below. Instead of making the original premium, I collected $1.61 or 0.644% of the total projected cash flow for this trade.

WHY THIS CASH SECURED PUT WAS CLOSED (ASSIGNED/BUYBACK)
WHY I CLOSED this CSP Trade > With this option falling more than 50% and having over $800 on the table and profit I decided to buy it back we're going to use this money in combination with some other on the sideline cash and make another play somewhere else
General plan for my Cash Secured Puts Cash on Cash % investments > I like to generate a 2% Cash on Cash return on my money invested ... depending on the timeframe ... 1 week, 1% is ok but if 30 days I want more like 2 ot 3% preferred
-50% , -10% RULES (PRICES WHEN I MIGHT BUY BACK)
Premium-50%10% RuleMy Buy Back was?
$2.50$1.25$0.00-$0.89
-50% Rule?Percentage Down

What does this mean? If within the first week the option falls 50% I will buy back the option and look to roll for another credit ... if the option falls to 10% of the value, I will buy back and roll.
