    The position is down -70 points on the ES. If I close ES and keep put open it would be an L of 70 pts / $4.5k and mkt dir is unknown as of now.But per understanding max L is 21 pts with the put in place and the ES contract open.

    What is the best approach for this trade ?

    As per mi understanding, if I close the long ES now it will be 27 pts of L. but if it is ITM on Aug 30 the L is only 21 pts (given I sold a call earlier and made 5 pts). So would it be better hold the ES and make as much of the put premium as possible with other trades around this ES that is open.
