$USO 20260904 140.0 CALL$ USO: take Profit. Been selling few short calls as the oil prices rising the last 2 weeks on the resumption of the US - IRAN war. This current one is with strike at $140 which since 1st Sept had been trading above $140 therefore is a losing position. The good thing is that the market dipped for the 1st 30 mins after open, and trades below $140, allowing this trade a momentary slot to be profitable. Am glad that the take profit timing was just right and allow for derisking the trade with profit collected. Still have mutiple contracts at around $145

$BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc.(BMNR)$ For coins. Been holding these at $19 as part of cash secured put that went into money and assigned during the previous months of downs.

$META 20261120 550.0 CALL$ For coins. Bought this META long call of 3 months when the stock was selling off after the California lawsuits.

Will let this run a bit more and see how this goes closer to expiry.
