Well the plan to hold out for expiration with 100% premium turned out to be a big loser. Sold at $2 buy back at $6.50. And I was ahead $1 during the day. I’m gradually learning to sell out before the last 30 minutes, or maybe buy!

I remain short-term bearish as tariffs start kicking in this week, and VIX above 14.00. However, as always, I’m ready if I’m wrong. Also only playing short-term spreads to avoid complications when my Japan trip starts.

The 95 short strike was already breached so rolled this week 95 out to 11 DTE 95.5 for 0.32 credit. Total risk now down to 10.31. Goal is to have a zero cost basis trade in 10-20 weeks or if the short calls keep going ITM close it for profit and reset at higher strikes.
