Trades I took today as an option seller (08/12):
**Closed Positions**
* **KORU → $15 Put (opened on 08/05)**, premium 1.10 **→** closed at 0.05. Net premium profit = 1.05 (\~95% of premium captured, \~7% of capital).
**New Positions**
* **KORU → $15 Put expiry 08/28 (3 weeks DTE), premium 0.70 → 70/1500 = \~4.7%.** KORU is a leveraged asset and this trade occupies only a small portion of my trading capital.
* **ICHR → $60 Put expiry 09/18 (6 weeks DTE), premium 3.40 → 340/6000 = \~5.7%.** ICHR makes fluid delivery systems used in semiconductor manufacturing. The stock reported good earnings and has a good support at $62-$63 region.
* **DOCN → $165 Call expiry 09/18 (6 weeks DTE), premium 4.20 → 420/16500 = \~2.5%.** I was assigned DOCN at $165. I closed this same call position yesterday when DOCN sold off and today I reopened the same position when the stock recovered. This resulted in almost a $190 profit per contract.
I keep sharing my trades in my account and the Excel file to my full list of positions is linked in my profile description in case anyone wants to see the whole portfolio. Happy to hear thoughts on my positions. What are you guys wheeling or watching right now?
