#OptionsExpiration #Weeklys #Dec23 – Another decent week as volatility remained low, Gold miners behaved, and many positions expired. A couple of assignments at nice gains to raise even more cash.
One final weekly expiration remains in this tax year.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all forum members.

$SVXY #ShortPuts #VXXGame – as has been noted here earlier, put premiums are scarce in SVXY.
I’ve rolled some short calls out to June and next two Januarys over the last few days so I’m going to sell some put positions since they cost me nothing in margin terms. I welcome the chance to sell more at higher prices.

Yikes IWM I’m now short 200 shares from Jan. 20 expiry at 118.
#SPXcampaign Bought to close $SPX Dec 28th 2270/2245 put spread for 10.00. Sold for 7.00 on Tuesday. Couldn’t hang with this one… I am still bullish for next week, but the market has shown too much weakness to risk a max loss on this one.
It looks like my 815 calls sold at 4.10 will expire at zero today so I rolled down and sold the December 30, 810 calls @4.20 against my 2019 650 call position.
#CreditSpread STO TWTR Jan17 15.5/13 sold for $0.34 when TWTR @16.40. Current price seems have good support and bounced few times.
#SPXcampaign. Bought to close $SPX Dec 30th 2250/2275 call spread for 12.90. Sold for 12.15 on Dec 16th.
Rolled: Sold to Open $SPX Jan 6th 2260/2285 call spreads for 9.85.
Will add another small spread to make up the 3.05 difference.
#SPXcampaign Sold to open $SPX Jan 19th 2330/2355 call spreads for 1.60, with SPX at 2260.
