$MU VERTICAL 261113 PUT 840.0/PUT 850.0$ MU: selling fresh bull put spread on MU at $850/$840 for the risk ratio of 4:1.  MU seems to bottom out on 22nd Oct and is trading higher the past 3 sessions including today. Support around the 150 SMA and hopefully a more mildly bullish market will float this trade to success 

$SPCX 20261030 160.0 PUT$ SPCX: take profit. Close this long put for profit. Happened to caught SPCX at the high on 6th Oct at $172 and it's now trading at $150.  The drop enabled this long put to be profitable and it's time to close since it will expire on 30th Oct and I don't want to give back more to Mr Market than needed since it's trading higher today alongside market positive movements.

$DDOG 20261030 255.0 PUT$ for coins 

$MSFT 20261030 565.0 CALL$ sharing for coins.  I have some bear call spread setup on MSFT at $565/$570 and currently there are still profitable with recent market weakness.  1 more week to expiry so I'll hang on few more days to let theta decay do its work to extract some extra premium before closing. Shared here is the profitable setup leg.

$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ META: sold off all my shares on META for small loss. This is part of my bull put spread of $700/695that is a losing trade when META closed at $642. That was a 18% drop from its recent high. Glad I was trading in risk defined setup, else the losses will be larger during the recent pull back. Get to live to trade another day.

$United States Oil Fund LP(USO)$ USO: shorted some oil trades. At this price level, the risk to reward could start to swing.  Oil trades are very event based so either I'll lose more from here, but also can be profitable should oil receded from the current high.  Taking some paper loss for now, will be holding on and see how the hot wars and mid term goes before deciding next actions unless I can exit profitably. 

$Micron Technology(MU)$ MU: sold off all my shares on MU for small loss.  This is part of my bull put spread of $1000/$995 that is a losing trade when MU dropped to $877 from $1087 when I initiated this trade.  That was a full $200 drop in about 2.5 weeks of my trade.  Glad I was trading in risk defined setup, else the losses will be larger during the recent pull back.  Get to live to trade another day. 

$Micron Technology(MU)$ MU: buying these shares in as part of short puts getting assigned. Holding cost at $1000 so in paper loss of about 12% I believe the price will recover but I've already have the risk defined long puts that will also be exercised and cancelled out this trade with some losses.  Overall a losing trade and a risk defined one. Will be readjust trade next week once all these assignments are cleared up over the weekend. 

$Vertiv Holdings LLC(VRT)$ VRT: bought in another 100 shares of VRT to average down.  Holding cost is lowered from $295 to $270 with this latest accumulation.  Will be selling covered call after its earnings next Wed 28th Oct as the current price is far off holding cost so I don't want to commit selling too low in case price recovers to the upside post earning.  Of course the bearish situation could happen and VRT continue to drop over AI bearishness and overall market volatility right before midterms.

$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ META: buying some shares in as part of short put getting assigned.  Holding cost at $700 so in paper loss of about 8%.  I believe the price will recover but I've already have the risk defined long puts that will also be exercised and cancelled out this trade with some losses.  Overall a losing trade as I'll only be profitable if META is above $700.

$ADBE 20261120 205.0 PUT$ ADBE: take profit.  This is the short put leg of a strangle setup where the price of ADBE is moving up strongly past 2 weeks.  With 80% max premium collected, it's time to close it.  The short call leg at $275 is losing money but is still out of the money so I'll give it some time to stabilise before deciding next actions. 

$United Airlines(UAL)$ UAL: take loss  Cutting loss when it's down about 11% now.  The oil is nowhere near the lower levels I wanted.  Earnings also missed thought there is no sell off and in fact turned slightly higher.  With the lack of catalyst and with margins low, selling these stocks to free up capital. 

$MCD VERTICAL 261120 PUT 225.0/PUT 215.0$ MCD: Take Profit.  MCD is up about 8% in the past 2 weeks.  This bull put spread turned profitable and 70% of the max premium were achieved in 10 days and remaining 29 DTE.  It's time to bring in the net and live to trade another day.  On days where the tech stocks were selling off, this staple consumer favourite were getting some love offsetting those losses on my tech trades. 

$META 20261030 850.0 CALL$ META: Take Profit.  These ratio spreads are profitable so I'm taking profit ahead of earnings later after market close 21st Oct.  Consists of  +1 Call $845 -2 call $850 Overall successful trade and always good to remove risk while securing profits.

$USO CALENDAR 261023/261030 CALL 150.0/CALL 150.0$ USO: rolling management of a losing trade.  Oil traded above these short calls with strike of $150 expiring 23rd Oct.  So I'm preemptively rolling these 1 week further to 30th Oct with same strike while I still can get some additional credits for the rolling.  Wanted to roll further out to buy more time but the IV were lower for more weeks so I might end up paying a debit for the rolling management so that's not what I wanted.  Will actively manage this until exit with profit or cut loss at some point in the future. 

$IREN 20261030 40.0 CALL$ IREN: closing a losing trade.  Looks profitable but this one is one part of a bull call spread $36/40 that is not working out.  With IREN trading at $27.6 now, it's unlikely rising back to above $40 and be profitable in 1.5 weeks time.  Decided to close the trade and recover whatever scrap premium and move on. 

$IBM 20261120 200.0 PUT$ IBM: take profit. Sold this when IBM was at $220 and it's now moved up to $244 in just 8 days As such, the profit target of 60% max premium had been achieved with 30 DTE remaining. There is less reason to hold on to the trade when little remaining premium and with still 1 month to wait so closing the trade is the right action to take. Earnings on 21st Oct so this action also remove binary conclusion that will lower the risk to reward of the trade.
