How we did on the trades we exited this week.
This Week’s Trade Exits
As soon as I exit a trade, I note that in the comments of the post where I first mentioned the trade; at the end of the week, I try to track them all in one post. Starting in July, 2024, I have also been tracking them in a spreadsheet. These are the trades I exited this week.

Comments
Stocks or Exchange Traded Products
Our lone stock exit was Sivers Semiconductors, which we bought at $2.24 in April because it has no listed options. We sold it in tranches: half at $6.75 in May, a third of the remainder at $7.61 two weeks later, and the rest at $4.20 this week, for a blended 170% gain. The tranche discipline captured most of the spike; holding the last piece for more cost us some of it as the stock faded. SIVEF is back on our watchlist after recent insider buying, but the chart needs repair before we’d reenter.
Options
A Clean Sweep
All twelve options exits this week were profitable. That won’t happen every week—losers tend to collect at expirations, and July OpEx is next Friday—but this list shows the machine working end to end: put spreads harvested near their floors, short calls bought back after collecting most of their premium, and four full combos closed at multiples of their cost.
The Calendar Harvest
Four exits came from the same maneuver. When a stock runs through both call strikes in one of our hybrids, the standing $0.20 order to buy back the short call stops being realistic, so we cancel it and sell the calendar—both call legs together—near its maximum value. That’s how uniQure (80%), Twist Bioscience (336% on premium outlay), GlobalFoundries (454% on net debit), and Moderna (491%) closed. Moderna shows the arithmetic cleanly: we entered the combo for a $1.15 net debit in April, paid $0.20 to exit the put spread in June, and sold the calendar for $7.00 this week.
Short Calls Bought Back, Upside Uncapped
We bought back short calls on AstraZeneca (96% on premium collected) and Fluence Energy (92%), leaving our October $220 AZN call and November $31 FLNC call uncapped. The put spread exits on Cemex and Calumet did the same kind of work from the other side: the financing legs closed at or below our standard $0.20 exit, while the four October $14 CX calls and the Calumet call calendar stay on. We also posted GTC sell targets on five of our uncapped long calls this week, in the comments under their trade alerts and via chat/email.
Opera’s Long Tail
The Opera combo, opened in early December, posted this week’s best number: 580% on premium outlay. We closed the put spread back in February, sold half of the July $15 calls at $4.50 in May, and sold the other half at $5.40 this week, eleven days before they would have expired.
Thirteen exits, thirteen winners. Same process throughout: define the risk at entry, let the short legs help pay for the trade, and give the long calls room to work.
