$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ AMZN: Correcting a trade mistake while the damage is still manageable.

Bought back 100 shares at market price and took a 3% loss to neutralise the mistake made last Friday.

I had sold 100 shares at $240 as part of covered call that ended in the money on expiry.

Trade mistake on risk management.

Market opened lower on Friday and was continue to trade lower midday, with AMZN below strike of $240 and was at $238.49.

Made assumption that stock stays weak for the remaining hours and didn't close the trade to let the premium decay run to zero.

That didn't happen, and AMZN actually start floating high and closed at $244.41 so my short call is in the money.

Will cover back this trade come Monday
