Interesting times. We are in a little bit of VIX backwardation but not as deep and steep as it was back during the liberation day tariff scare. It’s nice to know that even with mild backwardation DITM SPX puts are still very rollable. We are in a sweet spot right now!!

Small loss to go ahead and get this account to 100 percent cash.
