... for a 3.67 credit. Comments: Rolling for a realized gain with this down move. There was no 127 strike, so rolled the short call to the 130 and the short put "as is." Total credits collected of 28.47 on a 17 wide inverted. Resulting delta/theta -38.14/15.30 with 13.43 of extrinsic, so I'm indicating here that it's a "short" position. Still looking at this...

... to the December 16th 128C/133P inverted short strangle for a 4.02 credit. Comments: Rolling out at 21 days to go to reduce "random" assignment risk on the short call.

... for a .51 credit. Comments: Smidge of delta adjustment here. Total credits collected of 6.68. Resulting delta/theta of 13.99/17.18 with the setup marking at around 6.22. I rolled this once for duration already, so probably should just take profit here and move on, but wanted more than .46 ($46) out of it. We'll see if that bites me in the hinder or not ... .
... short put for a 1.10 credit. Comments (Late Post): Rolled this out at >50% max to the strike in November paying around 1% of the strike price in credit. I might usually just take profit and close this out, but still need small cap long delta for a bit here while I manage my IWM short delta hedge. Total credits collected of 1.62 (See Post Below) plus the...
... for a 1.76 credit. Comments: Was hoping price would stay more centered in my setup running into September mopex, but ... nope.

Total credits collected of 5.01 on a 5 wide inverted. The setup is currently marking at 6.46 relative to my cost basis of 5.01, so it's underwater...

... 268 short put for a 1.23 credit.
