Steve,

You should be feeling proud of yourself, not beating yourself up.

Generally speaking, in the BCI methodology we do favor rolling-down over looking to “hit a double” in the latter part of a contract. I would have taken the same action you did.

The lesson we can take away from this experience is that we would all look smarter in hindsight.

Keep up the good work.

Alan

Hope you’re doing well!

This past week with a pullback, a few of my calls were triggered using the 10% rule. Happened to three of them and the fundamentals were mixed.

I should have been more patient and allowed the stock to do what it needed to. Instead I was more conservative and didn’t wait long enough. In other words, I sold another call at or near the my and now I’m watching the stock go back up.

It appears I might miss out on a couple of potential doubles because I was impatient. I’m guessing if the fundamentals are mixed to bullish, I shouldn’t feel guilty about letting the stock sit there without a call and place correct? But with August 21st coming up to us next week, I felt the need to try to get some more premium while I still could.

In hindsight I should have just waited a little longer or maybe went for the next month expiration date. Feel like I get caught in limbo when my calls are triggered with the 10% rule and the stock is sitting there by itself.

Generally speaking with one week left, do you wait it out or sometimes just go for it the following expiration date to collect premium.

Thanks in advance,
Steve
