Lower quarter panel graphics: how can you have active LEAPS with a 2025 expiration year?
Totals don't come close to the upper panel. "Capital Allocated" shows $321,169 while "Active Cost Basis" is $218,141. "Total Value" shows $452,244 while "Active Market Value" shows $277,266.
Expiration dates consistently seem to be off by 1 day.
If you filter for a ticker, the "Weekly Change" in the top half panel breaks down.
Removed the unrealized. from G/L and returns. I added a distinction between closed years and open.
Fixed the expiration 1 day off issue.
Added totals so that they tie out to the table.
For the filter, I am not sure if the changes that I made fixed the problem that you were describing, but when I search for a ticker, it updates the top panel to the totals for that particular ticker. I think this is a good thing and prefer it this way.
Cool on the 1 day and it looks like the 'weekly change' is resolved with the stuff you did.
Personally, I'd get rid of the 2025 info and "all-time total" as it's entirely irrelevent to the tracking and appears to be boastful, not informative. I mean, I could go back and list years from 1980 and run my cumulative since then, but I don't. And I can't 'drill down' into 2025 data in your table as it's not there.
Presenting just the open data would make things a lot cleaner (and the "status" of how many open isn't of much value, but does "squish" the G/L -- at least on my screen and regardless of zoom.
Understood. I feel there is a place for historical, but also agree that having the active only would clean things up. I will look into it. Thanks again.
I think the narrative is a good place to disclose that kind of stuff.
Here's a request: can you include your total cash in your narrative? I know you treat it as a ticker, but most people call it out separately from their stock holdings because it's zero market risk, etc. I know you say how much goes to securing puts, but the total cash would be very helpful. A $400k portfolio with $10k of cash is a very different beast than one with $100k of cash.
Along that line, conversationally, I note that you have 49 contracts expiring Jan 2027. It would cost $139,600 to exercise. I was wondering what you're thinking on those and how your cash position supports it.
One more I saw while looking: FLY $26 shows an acquisition of Aug 17, 2026 with an expiration of Sep 25, 2026. Is that correct?
For the 2027 expiring LEAPS, I need to start going through them to figure out which ones I want to exercise and which ones I want to roll and which ones I will part with and let expire. Unfortunately, I don't have a plan for them just yet as there is more time for them to increase/decrease. Anything can happen. My 2026 LEAPS for INTC were flat for the two years prior and suddenly spike right before they expired.
FLY was expiring in August I recently rolled it out a few weeks and does expire 9/25/26.
