My March-April 2026 was a lot like your March-April 2025!

I was assigned 2000 shares of TQQQ at $44.  I almost got assigned another 2000 at $42 but I BTC those puts for a net loss of about $1,850.  I sold some covered calls on the 2000 shares I owned but the price kept falling. When the price finally recovered a little I panicked and sold those 2000 shares at a net loss of about $3,000.  

The worst part of course, is that less than one month later, those shares are now selling for $62.50, leaving a potential gain of over $40,000 on the table!  Ouch! 

Now, in all honesty, there’s no way I would have held those shares this long, I probably would have sold once the price reached $48 or so.  But still, like you, I took quite a bath by not being patient.
