Here is the status of my open trades at the end of the day today.

Here is a Year to date view of the portfolio.

Trade History
Here are the last 20 trades I made.

Tomorrow's Outlook
I will continue to hold on to the open LEAPS.
Depending on how bullish I feel in the morning, I may risk selling another META spread. But I do not have much cash available, so it may instead be a risk trade-off in favor of selling a PUT or buying another LEAPS trade.
Speculation Zone
Alright so what has the last few days of consecutive drops shown me? A few things actually!
- Not having large positions on Credit Spreads helped with reducing how much hit I took when my bet was wrong.
- Being able to close a losing position out even when I have the conviction that market will bounce back from where it is today, because there is not enough time to let the bet grow back up again.
