Because I don't miss a day of realized and my positions don't extend beyond the quarter.

Hi atticus. Do you not extend positions beyond the quarter for tax reasons?

Not for tax reasons. I am better at predicting price than vol.

From our discussion:

NFLX Feb1/Feb8 170 Call Calendar from 1.50

Feb16/Feb22 170 Call Calendar from 0.80

Also, from the other day:

STZ Feb/Apr 40 Calendar

I got it at around 1.30, but the vol diff is still there. 37.5 strike is good too.
