Closed this NVDA put position before expiration — and honestly, I’m happy with the result. 🙌
NVDA has been dropping further, so part of me wonders: Could I have held longer and earned more?
Maybe. But the truth is, nobody knows how far a stock will fall or when it will turn around. Even when a trade looks promising, there’s no guarantee the next move will go our way.
I could have held on for more profit, but I chose to lock in my gains instead.
My takeaway: You don’t have to catch every last dollar to make a good trade. Sometimes, taking a solid profit and protecting your capital is the smarter move.
50.52% earned. Trade closed. No regrets. ✅
There will always be another opportunity — but only if we manage risk along the way.
Would you have closed here, or held the $215 put a little longer? 👇
