On Friday, August 23rd, 2019, I sold this call for a credit of $4.53.
On Thursday, September 26th, 2019, I rolled it up to the 147 strike and out to November for a credit of 69 cents.
On Friday, October 25th, 2019, I rolled it up to the 148 strike and out to December expiration and also added a short 148 put to reduce my short deltas.
On Friday, November 8th, 2019, my deltas got too short, so I rolled up my put into an inverted strangle for a credit of $1.22
My overall credit for this position is now $8.47.
No specific profit target, since this is all in defense mode.
At the moment this position is down $6.99 ($699 per one lot).
This position is close to getting assigned short stock, but since it is only a one lot, I will take assignment and sell a put against it.
