NEGG assignment-palooza
As did most of us that put on this trade I got assigned in the 3 accounts in which I was able to execute this trade. Full assignments in 2 of the accounts and partial assignment in 1 of them. I closed the trade where I was fully assigned for .86 and .90 profit, and I covered the partial assignment, leaving a small position in that account with a bit of time value now in the 20 calls. If assigned again here (it’s an IRA) I will obviously have to cover immediately but let’s see what happens. Still profitable with all the craziness so once again thanks @Hawk.

NEGG
Received a call from TDA earlier. I’m not allowed to carry short stock in an IRA so needed to be closed by end of day. I didn’t really take too many pains to close it…just blasted through all the positions getting near mid price. All said and done a massive gain of .70 per spread.
Fun while it lasted!

What happens to a Covered…
What happens to a Covered Call position when stock back-splits?
For example GE will have a 1:8 split in August.
Right now I hold 400 shares and 4 calls.
After the split I will end up with 50 shares, but what happens to the existing calls?
