Luckily I didn’t have to roll any calls up except in SOXL on the big market move into quarter end. Made most of this week’s gain in UVXY and VXX, and suffered through a couple more early put assignments.

Stopped out
#SPX1dte I’m calling this my first sucky trade of 2023. I tempted fate and erased almost all profit from the week.
BTC $SPX March 31st 4100 call for 4.00. Condors sold yesterday for 1.00.
Now that I’ve done that, there’s an excellent chance it will keep falling and make my move unnecessary.
