  4. H @ $76.76
    Vols today at 26%/22% (NAILED IT).

    Closed out position today

    + SLD 20 H - Aug + Sep 75 Put Calendar 1.10 SMART 12:49:13

    41% return.

    Return not as important as calendars are for big hits with limited risks. Once in a blue moon you lose most of the debit (WING). But i like my vol predictions...
