#earnings #closing #shortstraddle YELP
August 8, I sold a Sept. 38 straddle for earnings for 5.80. YELP went up over 50. Sept. 19 I rolled the call to November. The put expired and I sold an Oct. 45 put. YELP has been coming down, closed the put for a small gain, the call is getting close but so are the next earnings.

#shortputspread #closing #earnings AVGO
July 15, sold an August 17, 210/215, put spread for 1.00. August 15, rolled it to Sept. 21, 200/210 for 1.34, closed today for .40 after the earnings pop. My initial timing was right, could have closed profitable after about 10 days and avoided the earnings risk, but no, had to try for more which resulted in a de facto risky earnings trade-I feel lucky.
