... for a 1.21 credit.
Comments: Adjusting a rung of my longer-dated premium-selling strategy in SPY* to lock in realized gains and take advantage of this higher volatility environment. I've collected a total of 18.03 (See Post Below) + 1.21 or 19.24 with rolls with this contract relative to a current short put value of 3.66, so have realized gains of 19.24 - 3.66 or 15.58 ($1558) so far.
Will generally look to roll at 50% max.
* -- The basic strategy is to sell the shortest duration premium in SPY at 16 delta or less that is paying at least 1% of the strike price in credit and to roll intraexpiry (as I did here) or from month to month at 50% max (i.e., when the short put reaches 50% profit).
