Adjustment: Our short 5 strike Oct puts expired on Friday, lowering our cost basis from $8.29 down to around $7.95. We're going to write the Nov 8 calls here to further lower our cost basis. If we get a pullback in [private_monthly]LNG[/private_monthly], we'll also look to sell more 5 strike puts. Note: with the bid currently at $0.10 on the calls were selling, we may not get filled today, so we're using a GTC order.
