Verizon: Following Up On Our Option Wheel Strategy

  • With the latest weekly options expiration passing, we had a couple of trades that were set to come to a conclusion. We successfully closed out a speculative put writing trade on ProShares Bitcoin ETF earlier in the week, achieving ~97.6% of the anticipated profit due to a major Bitcoin price recovery. However, we let our short puts on Verizon go into the expiration with shares trading below our strike price, looking to take assignment on a trading batch of shares.
