REASONING FOR BUYING BACK THIS CCW OPTION (FINAL)
WHY I CLOSED this PMCC Trade on > United Parcel Service, Inc. (UPS)
The stock rallied and not wanting to deal with a stock moving too high above my $136 strike (remember, FEDEX had blowout earnings and UPS popped +3 ..) using a 0.74 Delta LEAPS , I bought back to either ROLL or flatout sell out of the position , so we lose money here but will hope to make it up with another ROLL or sell of the LEAPS

REASONING FOR ROLLING THIS MONEY VS JUST SITTING (FINAL)
WHY I OPENED this PMCC Trade on > United Parcel Service, Inc. (UPS)
This trade on UPS starts out as a > (18) day trade where Im trying to capture anywhere from 3% - 5% for a monthly Covered Call Trade. This trade will make $2830 dollars which represents 18.41% on money invested.
Further commentary and feelings on this trade
After making the mistake of buying back my last option and not selling the LEAPS , trying to ROLL the option and got caught as the stock fell , I decided to wait and wait ... finally this morning Ive decided to just sell premium and see where this goes ... this CC option falls right before earnings , Im guessing my shares are taken
With this new Strike Price, what is the projected LEAPS Value?
If this trades as its projected, I will make money on the LEAPS Call Option > IF my shares are taken at this strike price, my expected LEAPS value will be $15.476345 , my cost basis is $-15.37
