I believe the stock was at $2.38. So I was able to once again own the stock without restriction. This price was more than what I paid for the stock.<br /><br />So then I took more revenue from selling the March options. The stock closed above the strike price, so my shares were assigned.Collaborative Investorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17717576123843846882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1288207003929176746.post-26963931848738599122010-03-25T21:19:08.167-07:002010-03-25T21:19:08.167-07:00"Bought ARIA stock at $2.23 in November
Sold ..."Bought ARIA stock at $2.23 in November<br />Sold the January $2.50 call for revenue<br />Stock closed below $2.50 when January call expired" <br /><br />just to make sure i understand call selling, you lost money on the january expiration, but profited on the march one? OR did you just receive revenue on the january one, and capital gains on the march one?Joe Hetlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08658887515668019788noreply@blogger.com
