The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I bought a put option 360 strike price (june 2024) for 23.15. I wanted to sell call option for strike price in 340-360 range but volatility pricing is low. So went for this. Not sure if it is one to one - but felt like this may be a better option than selling outright (it is in ira so tax was not a consideration).

My objective was to capitalize on low volatility and secure some profits, although I admit my reasoning is not fully developed regarding whether this strategy truly outweighs selling the stock outright.

Any thoughts. I can easily close it out if downside of this trade gets pointed out here.
