Looking good so far. Currently, AH price at 278, so it didn't move much ... .
Comment:
Looked good. Then not so good. Rolling the 310/315 short call vert to the 260/265 for a .77 ($77)/contract credit. Scratch point is currently 1.27 + .77 = 2.04.
Comment:
Well, this little fella's coming down to the wire with 8 DTE. Too little time to bother with rolling in the short call side for additional credit, so will look to close that out at near worthless, roll out the short put side/sell an oppositional side against if it's "too close for comfort" next week.
Trade closed manually:
Closing here for a 1.95 debit on this little bounce. I figured I'd close it out here as a "mini-winner" (.09/$9/contract), so that I wouldn't have to roll the put side down and out.
