Taking profits on the sold Monday 7820 calls for $4 bringing today's total to $9 collected premium!!  May sell into the close if we rally a bit but we'll see  how it goes!

Last night I sold today's daily 7820 call level once again for $5 as its okay to go short there if needed and so far that seems to have been the trade as they are looking good right now!!  Seems to be a directionless day so far so we'll see how the cash market opens to maybe get some more movement.

Quiet market today, the pajama traders didn't fill our trades so I'm watching this morning so far for a good daily to sell.  Thought the 7820 would be richer in premium and I'm waiting so we'll see as we go here.  The 7800 level may be a bit more of a harbinger than I originally thought also.

Okay that was fast especially when your just waking up but that's okay lol!!  Was a great sell and I was surprised it dropped that much premium in one minute but I'm hopiing for a retest of highs to resell here before the cash open as inflation was okay...
