OptionsExpiration
An extremely profitable week for my Diagonal and Covered Calls in TNA and TQQQ. Not too bad for VXX, SOXL, TNA, TQQQ and SLV puts either(although I had to roll some).
Going into next week with a lot less positions(risk) as many Bear Call spreads expired with gains.

#SPX1dte Bought to close $SPX Sept 2nd 3910/3890 put spreads for 3.00. Almost finished the week scot free. This shows the value of closing when you can, since this put side got down to .20 or less at the highs.
Total credit on the calls and puts was 1.90 this morning so this is 1.10 loss on the day.
