I had a similar position as you.Got 10x -p925 18/2 I will have to manage soon. I was wondering what is the rational of everyone here.
1) Roll them 1 week out for an additional credit with the same strike price
2) Roll then 1 week without additional credit for an improved strike price
3) Roll then 1 month out for an additional credit and improved strike price
What is your not advice on how to manage expiring underwater positions in a bear market with extreme volatility? I am new to this. I seem to be becoming more newbie every week that goes on actually.
Not advice. I rolled my 2/4 960 puts to August 19 850 for a credit enough to pay my tax bill from last year. My intent is to roll these back in if we start moving up. It would likely be a April 980/990 strike based on what I’ve seen so far. So in effect I will lose about a month of selling options, but I’m sleeping better and have no risk of assignment now.
If *sugar* hits the fan, I’ll roll to Jan 2024 and reduce the number of contracts by half freeing up margin to take me down to 500. If we hit that number I’ll find every spare penny I have and buy more.
