| WHY I OPENED this CCW on AMD > ROLLING from a recent PMCC buy back trade, if my shares are taken (*) this will be a TOTAL GAIN of 14.50% or $7,300 in the wallet ... have had to work this trade a bit more then I thought and probably shouldn't have bought back some options as my very first trade was dam near the same one, making me a wee bit more ... but hey, I never said I was perfect :) | |||||||||
| > as with every trade, I will manage this trade as it approaches expiration ... buying back the option if it adheres to my -50% and 0.10 cent guidelines. -50% guideline being, such this option price fall 50% or more in the first 2 weeks I will buy back and look to roll the option - if the this option falls to 0.10 or less (in most cases) I will buy back the option and roll it for another credit if it presents itself. | |||||||||
