I have become extremely comfortable with rolling....although often times it is because I have made an error in judgement to begin with....& other times the market just turns. It happens of course.

I wish that I could relate to your individual trades a little better. Due to the fact that I have to be willing to take assignment if necessary it sort of precludes me from selling Puts on stocks that trade over $100.

Normally in stock trading larger numbers really shouldn't make a difference however in this instance where forced assignment can and will occur if you are an active Put seller I simply don't have the capital to deploy for instance if say I need to buy 10 contracts of LMT for example.
On the other hand and this is a generalization but I notice that your portfolio of stocks which basically all trade at 100+ per share are more conservative in nature and less likely to Bk than many of my sub$10 issues.

The turmoil of the last two months has put our trading and our positions to the test. I'm sure that both of us have plenty of Rolling opportunities coming in December.
It always feels nice when you come out whole eventually on the other side. Sometimes it takes a while.

Thanks for showing your work.
