$UVXY #LongPut – I’m exercising my long UVXY Nov 75 Put. Delivering 100 shares of long stock to whoever was still short this position.
Originally paid 27.50 for the put, so a really nice gain on the position.
#OptionsExpiration – A Big, big…
#OptionsExpiration – A Big, big expiration – Would have been better if KOLD had stayed under 136. Still made money on the position because I bought the stock to protect the short calls.

$KOLD – the art of exiting an illiquid option position that just went in the money –
So I’m trying to exit my short call position @ 136 on KOLD but the bid / ask is 3 points apart. Rather than let the market maker take his pound of flesh, I’m going to buy the stock, either on a dip, or at the close and let them call it away.
I’ll still make money due to the large initial premium I got when I sold this.
