I rolled my call down to 21. Account value $2702

Account value $2707, main reason for loss is falling value of 30 Jan16 call (current loss -$692). I rolled my CLF short options to JanWk4, strike 23.

Account value $2786. CLF: Short options expire tomorrow. 23 put costs $27, which is more than 1% in underlying's move. Also, my call has strike 25, I don't think it will get ITM tomorrow. I decided to keep my put. If I call had strike 23 with risk of going ITM, I would roll today.

CLF is falling and so is my time value yield. I sold my 30 Apr put and bought 27 Apr put. All for a credit of $217, which covers my loss on short put option. Also, I closed my short put and sold Jan 14, 23.50 put.

Commissions + big bid/ask spread for long term options. Vix is as low as it gets, so I hope this drop is temporary. Although, I have to admit - 5% account fall in one day is more than I expected.
