The RUT Weekly expires Friday AM 4/27, so Thursday is the last day of trading.
Looking forward to it. Thanks.
That would be nice to see as well since I sell CC mainly on large value stocks - to see how you would normally hedge the basket (SPX puts, VIX calls).
I will follow this thread. I would prefer using low beta stocks vs SPX but this will be instructive as well.
I didn't adjust the WMT position because the 55P premium is too small. I persuaded myself that getting assigned @ 57.5 is okay. I may roll down...

atticus, what do you mean sell index skew and hedge or how do you do this? Are you doing put front spreads, risk reversals (sell puts to finance...
