Day 38

The market moved down again today.
SPY moved down by ~.5%, while QQQ moved down by ~.7%.

Trading Update

I ended up rolling both my LEAPS today, moving them down by a few dollars and out by a couple of extra months.

The new LEAPS for MSFT and GOOGL now are:

• MSFT $380 - Expires 3/20/2026
• GOOGL $165 - Expires 3/20/2026

I wanted to roll down to a 70∆ position but could only afford the 60∆.

Portfolio Status

My portfolio moved down to day-before-yesterday level, down by 4.37%.

📉 Year to Date: -6.1%
📉 All Time: -20.90%

The AAPL 4/17 Put remains really strong, currently up +746%. As I mentioned before, a few days ago, I really need this to explode before considering an exit.

The AAPL put is my only silver lining, currently up +273%. If AAPL drops further, it might hit the 1000%+ range I’m targeting for an exit. But let’s be real—if that happens, the rest of the market is likely in full meltdown mode.

And now I am thinking to maybe let the Put marinate until next week. And then I will close this and maybe open a new one.

Here is the portfolio status.

Trade History

Here are my last 20 trades:

Plan for Tomorrow

Survive!

It continues to be tempting to take profits on the AAPL put (now up ~+746%), but at this point I likely want the Put to maybe double from here on.

I need to inject some capital soon to continue to trade. Otherwise, I will need to wait until the LEAPS turn green and I begin selling some weekly calls against the open positions.
