| Further commentary as to why I opened this trade > | |||||||||
| Any opportunity to sell premium on the shares in and around my cost basis of $68 a share I will do now I've decided to use this Friday's expiration as I would like to have my shares taken away at my cost basis of $68 and if they're not we will roll for another credit this seems to be a very easy trade considering the stock seems to bottom in and around 58 but finds itself right back into the mid-$60s rather quickly | |||||||||
| > 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. | |||||||||
