SPY huge losses with wrong adjustments
So many bad decisions here, how to unpack it.
had the 280 calls that the market absolutely obliterated, was way in the money. instead of doing like I learned and NOT moving the challenged side, I sold MORE calls at 285 which is also went through. I then sold puts at 283 which expired OTM but suffered a major loss. Lesson learned, don't adjust the challenged direction!!
SPY 26 credit , sold for 198 = $172 loss
