NovWk3: Morning After Update

Just like a drunken night spent boozing away with friends, the morning after experience is always one of much regret. I too am suffering from the after effects of being too rash in my trades.

Against my better judgement last night, I saw the SPY falling, this reminds me of John Mayer's "Free Falling", but that's besides the point. The SPY had a free fall last night as well. From when I entered the market when it dropped 0.70 cents till the sobering 1.86 dollar drop at closing.

The lowest it dropped to was $135.62. And I bet this must have stressed premiums so much that you could even sell the 132/133 spread for 0.04 cents.

The premium for the 133/134 spread is still available and is at 0.08! How nice if I got this premium instead! That would have made all the difference. Alas, I didn't, and it all hinges upon the performance of the SPY tonight.

Let's hope that all goes well and we can have a smooth expiry come Friday.
