We have a number of positions expiring today.
I am recommending we book profits on our Apple (AAPL) put rather than sweat it out through the close.
Our Lululemon Athletica (LULU) and Roku (ROKU) spreads are on track to expire worthless. We will continue both positions by selling new spreads soon to reduce our net debits.
Our Microsoft (MSFT) call is deep in the money and our shares are on track to be called away at a profit. We may trade the stock again after earnings come out.
Our Peloton Interactive (PTON) put is on track to expire worthless, resulting in a max profit.
Finally, our Starbucks (SBUX) put is also on track to expire worthless. If it does, we will sell another one next week to reduce our net debit. If the stock happens to reverse and close below our strike, we will accept shares and sell a call.
