$RDDT 20261218 80.0 PUT$ RDDT: take profit. Achieved profit target of 70% max premium collection.  Pretty neat trade after holding for 9 days and left 37 DTE and already achieved 70% max profit.  RDDT run lockstep higher past few days after 1 session position positive and the next negative but overall drifting higher.  Yesterday's 7% up helps push the premium decay in my favour therefore profitable trade

$ORCL 20261204 100.0 PUT$ ORCL: take profit. Achieved profit target of 70% max premium so I'm closing this early.  Pretty decent to achieved this after 2 trading days and left 23 DTE.  Stock continue to run higher and trading at $127 at time of writing 
$NVDA 20261113 160.0 PUT$ NVDA: take profit.  Hit target profit of 70% max premium for the short put, and I'm closing it.  Sold right after the Jensen scandal hit, and won't mind getting assignment should stock goes lower.  Strike at $160 as moderate risk and at support level.  Stock rebounded today and this allows the profit to be secured ahead of expiry this Fri.
$VIX 20261118 25.0 CALL$ VIX: take profit.  Hit profit target at 70% of max premium collected.  Shorted the VIX during the height of volatility spike after the US midterms and when market sell off 2 days after on the 5th Nov.  VIX when from low of 16.57 and spiked 70% to as high as 28.36.  Didn't manage to catch the peak, but still manage to sell some calls at 25 and now that's it's back close to normal $17.93 today, all those short calls turned profitable.
$RKLB VERTICAL 261113 CALL 60.0/CALL 55.0$ RKLB: take profit.  These bull call spread were finally profitable and I'm taking profit and close the trade ahead of expiry.  Dipped to as low as $43.89 during last week's sell off but then rebounded sharply back to my profit zones just in time before expiry.  Glad the trade work out to be profitable. 
$ORCL STRANGLE 261204 CALL 138.0/PUT 100.0$ ORCL: short strangle at $138/100 which is at around 10-15 delta regions.  Price is beyond 1 sigma movement and expire on 4th Dec which is before earnings on 14th Dec.  Look to exit before that to avoid binary outcomes. 
$NVDA STRANGLE 261218 PUT 145.0/CALL 215.0$ NVDA: sell this short strangle for 38 DTE expiring 18th Dec.  This will cross over the earnings expected on 17th Nov and then the senate hearings too.
$SPY VERTICAL 261204 CALL 800.0/CALL 790.0$ SPY: take profit. Short call spread leg were part of an original iron condor. Manage the closure separately and leaving the short put spread to continue run for few more days. 
$SPY VERTICAL 261127 CALL 790.0/CALL 800.0$ SPY: take profit.  Short call spread leg were part of an original iron condor.  Manage the closure separately and leaving the short put spread to continue run for few more days. 
$VRT 20261120 220.0 CALL$ VRT: selling covered call on VRT with strike at $220 and exporting 20th Nov.  short term trade and price had came down about 50% off its May peak.  Stock suffered paper loss as news of slowing down data centers build out are key event topics for the recently concluded US midterms which the Democrats won. 
$IWM 20261120 260.0 PUT$ IWM: take profit. 
$SPY IRON_CONDOR 261224 PUT 710.0/PUT 700.0/CALL 790.0/CALL 780.0$ SPY: new SPY 45 DTE iron condor for this week. Both wings are setup to be around 20 to 25 deltas so trade probability is around 50/50.  Colecting about 33% of premium to risk so it's about 1:3 reward to risk ratio.  Will close if achieve 50% premium collection. 
$NVDA 20261113 160.0 PUT$ NVDA: sold a cash secured put at $160 after today's initial drop.  Market open positively for the week and NVDA pared down some losses. Still down.  Not willing to take earning risk and also Jensen being summoned for close door congressional hearing the day after earning would create uncertainly.  Trade was short term and will expire this Fri. 
$NVDA 20261113 220.0 CALL$ NVDA: take loss.  Had this long call a while back when NVDA trades higher.  Didn't work out after the drop past few weeks and after the weekend Jensen scandal, no change to recover.  Decided to take the remaining scrap and buy myself a cup of coffee. 
$SPY 20261204 790.0 CALL$ for coins. Short call on SPY and its part of an iron condor setup so shouldn't be viewed individually 
$Delta Air Lines(DAL)$ DAL: sold my positions on DAL at $82 for a small profit after my covered call closed in the money at $87.2.  Bought them at 81.71 on 21st Sept to sell covered call and had been able to sell for few rounds including the period when the stock was trading below holding price.  Nevertheless was able to sell this final round slightly above cost as well as profiting for the multiple rounds of premium collection via covered calls selling.  Overall profitable trade and partial hedge on oil movement trade. So when oil price came down this week, airline stock went up.
$United States Oil Fund LP(USO)$ USO: bought shares of USO to cover my net short positions at $160.  In prior weeks, USO was trading at peak of $172.82 and my short call positions were assigned. There was holding net short shares ar $160.  Determined that oil price would be lower within weeks, I held on to the positions and sold short put at same strike of $160 to capture more premium.  USO closed $148.41, dropping after US midterms results favouring Democrats so the market was reacting to potentially Iran was deescalation.  Though the potential upside gain was trimmed for this case, the outcome of the trade was intended and I get to cancelled out my net short positions and clear up some trading margins ready for next week.
