Was really hoping most of the Covered Calls would be assigned. The LULU was a #BUPS that got rolled into another, so was wider than my typical. Probably should bail out of the SLB with a small loss – not much premium even going to Dec expirations.

I probably should have closed it out yesterday with a small loss.
Know a couple people had some ZM holdings.
Headline pretty much says it all:

Am sitting on a May-01-2020 130/140 #BuPS, which is down 40c from where I sold it. Debating closing or rolling. Have a feeling its going to be a nail-biter for this week.

Taking a smaller win, and getting some risk off the table.
