$USO 20260417 110.0 PUT$ Take profit on this oil trade. Price collapse on news on reopening of the Straits of Hormuz. The price hovers around my strike of $110 so decided to close it for some profit as it's too close and risked being assigned on expiry later today.
$VXX 20260424 45.0 CALL$ Take profit for these short calls on VXX as volatility had dipped massively due to deescalation in the Middle East. They will expire next Fri but with little premium left, so it's prudent to close and remove the tail end risk.
$MSFT 20260417 380.0 PUT$ Take profit. Market really rallied up the last 2 weeks. This short put had for the longest time, was in losing zone as low as $356.28 until the spike up especially the last 3 days and moved to out of the monet just in time before expiry this Fri. Happy to close as the rally had been fast and steep so any pull backs is a reasonable outcome in the coming days.
$INTC 20260417 70.0 CALL$ Sold some calls on INTC at $70. Think the rise is overblown with range of good news and buoyant market last 2 weeks but the fundamentals will come back to reality at some point. Ok to hold short at $70 for a short term trade, if fail will cut loss
