Best wishes on the bday, could you provide an update to this trade? Was the position hedged or did you get out before it broke the wing strike? rgds.

Some trades are taken, others are marked to mid and then adjusted for edge loss. I forgot about this one. I would never have let it go beyond exp BE. Anyway, I will look at it now.

Completely forgot this one. Mid trade (not taken), but will account for it as if it had been taken. 48.48 mid on the offset. 2014-10-14_0802.png

yeah it happens when there are too many trades going on at the same time, hope it didn't have much impact on the bottom line.

No, I didn't take the trade. It's not a matter of knowing my positions. It was a (forgotten) journal entry in light of regulatory scrutiny.

2% loss on portfolio.

GOOG 132 call asym into earnings. 5%. Nov 505/565/595 from 19.50 to the buy. I would no exceed 5% in this due to report-risk.
