They're CSP's. I rolled them down to $27 5-15. I won't mind if they are assigned. Either way. But I expect we'll be way above $27 by then. I closed some $30 CC a while ago and did well. I do have 3 $35 Jn 18 CC's that may need to be rolled again..hope so 😋

Had a deep deep red IREN $55 CC, so I rolled it way up and out to $110 and Jan 2028. Total premium collected is now over $1750... Heck, my first 100 shares cost $1650

I was up close to $25-28k today across all my holdings. A good day! Hydrograph reversed a bit. I want more but haven't gone for it yet. Still think it could well be the stock of the century.

Posted this on Rocket Lab to timberwolf who has different goals than me for his CC trading:

Earnings call there (here) is pre-mkt tomorrow. I may have mentioned that I have a 3 sets of 3 CC, at 35, 35, and 40. The first set expires Friday. As you and others advise against rolling up and out more than a short time to remove the deep red when the stock has kept running, I may let that set get called away. (I've already rolled set 2 to June and set 3 to July, like it or not) But I also sold just 1 CSP at $33 yesterday... if the shares go get called, I collected $306... shoulda done more than 1, I reckon...But the other idea was--if the mkt doesn't like the earnings, I'd get 100 shares at effectively $29.94 per...

Still not sure I don't mind rolling up and out as I don't mind being limited on the covered shares... (requires a strong belief that the stock won't crater) One big reason is, even if the stock is way above the strike, I am holding 20 Jan 2027 LEAPs that are now flying--up almost $24000 now!! Deep ITM at +208% and 173%

Happy trading Hump Day!
