Last Week I Took MSFT Profits. The New Position Is Already Down 35%.

Mathematical Money | June 13, 2026 Last week I wrote about closing two MSFT LEAPS for roughly $8,400 in realized profit. Both contracts had more than doubled. I wrote about the rule that triggered them, the redeployment into higher strikes, the framework working at a second ticker after SPY in May. I also wrote this, near the end: "Most LEAPS I open will not double. Some will get rolled at a loss." Eight days later, here we are. The new MSFT position I opened the same week is down significantly. Let me show you exactly what that looks like, because this is the post that has to be written if last week's post is going to mean anything. The Marks Three positions to walk through. June 2027 $500 LEAPS, two contracts. Opened June 3 at $40.25. Currently around $26.00. Down about $14.25 per contra

$MARA DIAGONAL 260702/260626 PUT 13.0/PUT 12.0$ Rolling up and out to squeeze more premiums 
$COIN 20240802 205.0 PUT$ Germany gonna finish selling btc soon. Waiting for btc to break above 60k so that it can trigger some stop losses. If no major selling from mt Gox holders then coinbase should be able to hold the 200-210 support
Most of you should have insane gains by holding your positions till now since early Nov. We're going into the last leg of 2024, please hang in there for the last leg of gains. Not expecting super powerful momentum up, but also still nothing to be bearish about at this moment. Let's milk this together as much as we can. Cheers.

Lost 10,000 more MARA shared this week. The position just got better.

Mathematical Money | May 30, 2026 Another 10,000 MARA shares got called away this week. On paper that looks like a worse position. The math says the opposite. If you've been following along, last week's post was about getting called away on the first 2,000. I wrote about how the assignment wasn't a disaster, even though it felt like one. This week the rest of the May expiry wave hit. About 6,500 more shares assigned at $10–$11 strikes when the stock was trading above $14. Plus the earlier 3,500 from May 9 and May 16 expiries that I covered last week. By the time the dust settled, the share count had dropped from 44,546 in mid-May to 34,546 today. Let me show you what that actually did to the position. The FIFO Math Nobody Explains Here's the part most retail traders never see, and it's the

April Closed Strong. Most Of It Wasn't Me. Mathematical Money | May 2, 2026 April was the best month this account has had in a long time. Almost 30% on the month. Before anyone DMs asking what I bought — slow down. This is not a "look how clever I am" post. The opposite. I want to walk through this honestly, because if I let a headline percentage stand by itself, half of you will read it wrong and the other half will assume the entire thing came from some kind of genius call. Neither is true. Let me decompose it. Where The Money Actually Came From MARA stock recovery did the bulk of the work. On April 1 the stock was around $8.86. On April 30 it closed at $11.99. That's a 35% recovery in a single month on a position I was already holding. The vast majority of the month's gain — roughly 85%
