$HOOD 20260618 105.0 CALL$ I am officially out of HOOD. Back in March, when geopolitical tensions in the Middle East triggered a sharp market sell-off, my deep In-The-Money (ITM) Cash Secured Put (CSP) was hit with an unexpected early assignment. I have been patiently holding the shares ever since, waiting for the ticker to find its footing. With HOOD finally rallying back above my original strike, I used a Covered Call to systematically cash out as the contract expired ITM. To be completely honest, I have lost faith in this counter over the last few months.

$MSFT 20260618 380.0 PUT$ My $380 Cash Secured Put (CSP) for MSFT expired last Friday, and with the shares trending just a hair below strike, I have officially taken assignment. Instead of rolling the position down and out, I decided to let the shares get put to me. At these levels, I find the price highly attractive for entering a fresh long position. In fact, this entry is lower than my current average cost basis, making this a great opportunity to Dollar-Cost Average (DCA) down. The long-term playbook here is simple: I will hold onto this lower-value entry and look to systematically shave off my higher-priced holdings once the share price recovers.

$MU 20260918 1050.0 CALL$ Sell to close this call that was opened yesterday for a small profit. Trying to reduce open call positions going into the long weekend.
$ASML 20260918 1880.0 CALL$ I bought an ASML call last Friday, but I think I was a bit too eager to jump into the trade and ended up paying a premium for it. Because of that high entry price, I needed a massive upward move in the share price just to hit my break-even point and close it out profitably. Fortunately, ASML absolutely ripped the charts today, touching fresh 52-week highs following Intel’s 18A-P risk production announcement, which gave me the perfect exit window to secure a small profit. For now, I am going to sit on my hands, stay on the sidelines, and wait out the major market events scheduled for these next few days to see exactly where the broader trend is heading before I commit to any new positions.

$UnitedHealth(UNH)$ I just had my UNH shares called away early, and while a profit is still a profit, this one stings a bit. I sold a covered call a few months back when the stock was trading completely flat, only for the share price to suddenly spike and leave my position deeply in the money. I tried my best to salvage it by rolling the contract out and up, but the momentum was just too strong, and rolling nearly two months out was barely giving me an extra $2 on the strike price. Even though the contract had two weeks left until its official expiration, the holder decided to exercise early, forcing me to part with the underlying shares for a much smaller gain than I could have had. It is what it is, and I am consoling myself with the fact th

$MU 20260918 950.0 CALL$ First trade with MU call option. Opened this contract on Tuesday this week. Just closed it to lock in profit. Happy with the outcome. Should have more MU trade to come.
$UnitedHealth(UNH)$ When tech experiences a sharp pullback, having anchors in your portfolio makes all the difference. While the high-flying tech names take a breather, sector rotation inevitably kicks in as capital seeks shelter in solid, defensive value. That is exactly what is playing out with UnitedHealth Group (UNH) right now. After a challenging stretch over the past year, the stock has staged a beautiful recovery, pushing up to fresh 52-week highs above $410 this week following a wave of analyst price target upgrades and a stabilizing regulatory outlook. This recovery serves as a textbook reminder of why true diversification matters. When tech draws down, holding a defensive heavyweight like UNH ac
$ASML 20260918 1780.0 CALL$ Luckily managed to STC this call that was bought to open yesterday, lock in some profits before the share price reverses back lower. 🍀😅
$ASML 20260918 1640.0 CALL$ Possibly one of my best trades yet. Last Friday, chip-related stocks faced a massive, brutal sell-off that dragged the QQQ down over 4%—easily marking one of the heaviest single-day drops we've seen so far this year. But blood in the streets always creates the best entries. I watched the panic closely and decided to step right into the fire with ASML, scaling into a call position just minutes before the closing bell rang. Fast forward to today, and the semiconductor sector is staging a massive revenge rally. The swift rebound has sent ASML surging straight back up, trending over 7% higher at the day's peak. Moments like these are exactly why we keep cash ready to deploy when everyone el
$ASML 20260918 1640.0 CALL$ Last Friday, Chip related stocks had a huge sell off. QQQ were down over 4%. One of the biggest sell off so far this year. That created some great opportunities to get into positions and that's what I did with ASML. Managed To buy a call position just before market closes. Today with the chip sector rebounding, this has also send ASML back up, trending almost 7% as am writing this post. 🍀. 🤞. Thank you.
$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ I remember a time when the biggest challenge in investing was simply getting your hands on reliable information, but today we face the exact opposite problem. The sheer speed and volume of data available at our fingertips have fundamentally shifted how the market moves, transforming what used to be a steady walk into a high-speed roller coaster. Looking at the massive run-ups and sudden, sharp pullbacks in a stock like AMD, it is completely natural to experience mixed feelings. On one hand, you are thrilled to see your long-term growth thesis validated, but on the other, the temptation to lock in those profits and buy back in during a inevitable dip is incredibly strong, even thoug
$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ One of my quickest Wheel Strategy, the underlying shares were assigned just a day and now got called away with the covered call closed in-the-money. Extra profits From the underlying gain on top on of the daily 0DTE premiums collected. 👍
$SPY 20260604 755.0 CALL$ After getting assigned on that previous lot of SPY—where my 0DTE option expired $1.24 out-of-the-money but still triggered because of a late after-hours drop—I pivot-turned the position into a covered call strategy. In a bizarre twist of market irony, my latest 0DTE covered call just expired in-the-money by $2.05 at the closing bell, only for SPY to immediately aggressive-tank after hours, pushing the current price back outside the money. Now I am stuck playing the exact same waiting game in reverse, watching the tape to see if the options clearing house actually calls this lot away from me or leaves me holding the shares for another round.
$SPY 20260603 753.0 PUT$ Sold this 0DTE with 753 strike last night. The market closes 754.24. $1.24 always yet assignments was given to this. Understand the aftermarket price may affect the assignment, this is not even close to my strike. 😤
$MSFT 20260612 395.0 PUT$ Would usually open a new weekly CSP on MSFT towards end of the week, however with one sitting over 90% in profit expiring this week, And with MSFT bearish momentum Today, took the opportunity to open a new position since the dip of over 3% that makea the premium juicer at the intended strike price.
