[Options] Monthly Positions Review – August
July 30, 2021
- $DDD Long Aug 35/40 Bull Call Spread: Unfortunately, we're running out of time for this position. With $DDD trading south of $30 a share, our entire spread is out-of-the-money and theta is our enemy. There's not much premium left in this position, but its better than nothing (about 35cents). So we're closing the position now and booking the loss.
Positions adjusted in July: $ZTS (Sold half of our long calls at a double on 7/6)
Positions exited for a win in July: $MSFT (7/13), $XBI (7/29), $XLI (7/28), $MSI (7/16), $TW (7/16), $SONY (7/2), $MS (7/9), $LUV (7/8)
Positions closed for a loss in July: $DELL (7/14), $ASAN (7/28), $AVGO (7/19), $MXIM (7/23), $CCL (7/9), $PLUG (7/14), $IWM (7/15), $KRE (7/7), $DOW (7/20), $CWH (7/12), $BIG (7/2)
