Hope to collect the decay over the long weekend then roll them farther OTM. Small size on these.
May also close or roll the /ES strangle by Wed. Has already made the 40% in 1 week on decay so will probably roll to next 45 DTE as soon as they release (usually Thurs but suspect Wed. or Fri. this week).
My experiment with /ES is to try to take profits at a lower target but decrease holding time so I can turn it over faster. 25-35% every week would be a better return than waiting 3 weeks for 50% if I can do it 52 times a year.
Holding on SPY IC/credit spreads for another week or 2, premiums are low right now!
Hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday! 🙂

Closed my Nov 24th 2525/2505 BuPS @ 0.20 off a GTC order. Winding down for Thanksgiving and the joys of traveling.
$ROKU Bought to close half of my ROKU Dec 17th 30 Puts @ 1.10. Originally sold for 1.25 on a whim. Decided to reduce the exposure.
And with that I am done here. Have a great Holiday one and all. Safe travels and peaceful time with family and friends.
