This thing will just need more time and/or additional cost basis reduction ... . Rolled the October 16th 4 long call out to the January 15th 5 long call for a .33/contract credit; scratch at 2.14.

Dagangan aktif:

Rolling the September 18th 7 down and out to the October 16th 6 for a .26 credit. Scratch at 1.88. This is functionally equivalent to rolling below my cost basis since I've narrowed the width of the diagonal to a one-wide, which means that the max I can make out of it if I do nothing and price finishes above 6 is 1.00, so it isn't ideal.
