#ShortStrangles – I may regret this but going way more directional than normal. Rolling put side into the money giving the short call some more protection.
Rolled SNOW JAN 15 2021 290.0 Put to JAN 15 2021 330.0 Put @ 25.75 credit.
Position is now 330/345 @ 35.90
Worse case stock is assigned at 294.10. If the stock rolls over from here I’ll probably roll the call down to set up a short straddle and reduce assignment basis by a little more.

#ShortStrangles – Out all afternoon but did have a standing order fill. This thing seems pretty mellow while it’s digesting the earnings swings (that was fun!). Adding a shorter term wide strangle to hopefully take advantage of the consolidation. Put side at the expexcted move and call side 1.5x the expected move.
