A much larger than usual expiration, mostly because I let these gains run into the new tax year and by then, most of them were so far out of the money they weren’t worth closing. Of course the insane bull market was a big help as well. In any event, looking for the return of volatility so I replace a lot of these positions. My theta numbers have gotten way too low. All of the following expired.
