Trade active:
Volatility continued to get crushed as expected after earnings and in one day we are already at 20% of max profit.
If there where a lot of other opportunities to trade I would close this one and redeploy the capital. Since the market is not giving us all the toys to play with then I will leave it and look to close it at the original target of 50%.
