Closing (IRA): XBI November 19th 110 Short Puts

... for a .13/contract debit.

Comments: Opened these for 1.71 credit/contract. (See Post Below). Closing here for .13 results in a realized gain of 1.58 ($158) per contract. Although this remains somewhat weak here, implied volatility isn't the greatest at around 28%, so decided not to roll it out; my preference is for weakness plus implied volatility in >35% in exchange-traded funds to take bullish assumption shots.
