SELL QQQ April Calls for $0.84

Selling QQQ April 14, $375 Calls for $0.84
Realized gain of $0.15 (21.74%)

I YOLO-ed some calls on Monday during the depths of the selloff and get to dump one of the positions today after the epic rally. I'll hold the June calls for now - but they're currently up over 20% as well and I might use my cost basis as a stop - but need to think on it...I'm probably holding over night.

In any event, buying calls on selloffs is a way to get or add long exposure while protecting downside. This tiny position was only 0.1% of my book - but represented 40% if exercised at the strike price. *There are reasons not to translate it this way to measure exposure, but it's directionally correct.*

I'm now hunting for shorts.
