I bought some IBM LEAPs $190-$195. Sold my strikes in the $160-$170(Rolling up). Stock was $191.9-92, they usually hit those round numbers like $200.

I can’t ignore the QQQ selling off, taking some at $38 to lock in a 40% gain. The Market must be obeyed.
Bitcoin miners appear to be waking up after the pull back. I will closely watch MARA, RIOT, HUT, CLSK along with COIN. Usually I am agnostic about everything, hot stocks don’t hide themselves.
