Covering the 119.5 short put at 50% max for a .26 db, so my scratch point in the setup is now -.25. Will sell the June 2nd 119.5 (27 delta) tomorrow.

Went with the June 2nd 119 instead; filled for .69. Scratch at .44.
Trade fermée manuellement:
Covering the 119 short put for a .35 db and the 117 long for a .25 credit (net .10 debit), so .34 gross profit/contract on this little fella. Just taking off stuff in profit where I can before vacation.
