Been messing around this week with the rolling up of an original 95 strike put sale to see how it works out. Busy at work, but Wednesday afternoon made a super aggressive roll up from 150 to 162.5. This brought total credit for the week to 13.10. Of course Mr. Market noticed this and NUGT dumped…LOL funny how that happens! In any case, closed it on the bounce this morning at 7.55 for net gain of 5.55. Looking like I might have been a little early but leaving soon and not sure I’ll see the close. Interesting experiment….slightly too aggressive but still good for a week.
Tastytrade suggests rolling to delta 30 on the non threatened side of a strangle. I went a little beyond that but got lucky. The 150 strike would’ve been about right. All’s well that ends well!
