Flash Sell: Exit Into This Market Rally Today

April 17, 2020

In markets such as this, we want to sell into the move.

  • Sell-to-close Glu Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ: GLUU) June 19, 2020, $7 call (GLUU200619C00007000) up to $1.30 limit per contract or better.

We opened the Glu Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ: GLUU) June 19, 2020, $7 call before the big market drop in March.

We still have 63 days on this position before expiration.

But, we don't trade options to tie up capital and inventory positions for that amount of time.

We look for quick profit opportunities.

The recent rally has brought prices right back to our entry point.

Getting back to even isn’t a win, but it’s best we exit this position.

By exiting we can use our capital for a better opportunity.

Closing this trade right now will scratch this position.

Here's what we're doing...
