10/20/21 Closing Instructions – We are at about 50% of our profit target, so I’ve closed this one out in 2 separate trades because the 4 legs were not filling at my asking price. 19% ROI.
Closing Order #1, for $50 debit
- Buy to close the Nov 19 190 call
- Sell to close the Nov 19 195 call
Closing Order #2, for 33 debit
- Sell to close the Nov 19 100 put
- Buy to close the Nov 19 105 put
Based on $350 of buying power, the $150 we collected on entry, and the $83 we gave back to close, that’s 19% ROI.
