STX Options Trade Chain (July → August 2025)

July 2025

  • 7/22 – STO $39 Put (7/25) for $0.75 ($74.95 credit)

  • 7/25 – BTC $39 Put (7/25) for $0.65 (-$65.04 debit) → Net: +$9.91

  • 7/25 – STO $39 Put (8/1) for $2.21 ($220.95 credit)

  • 7/31 – BTC $39 Put (8/1) for $1.85 (-$185.04 debit) → Net: +$35.91

  • 7/31 – STO $39 Put (8/8) for $2.83 ($282.95 credit)

August 2025

  • 8/8 – BTC $39 Put (8/8) for $1.92 (-$192.04 debit) → Net: +$90.91

  • 8/8 – STO $37.5 Put (8/15) for $2.32 ($231.95 credit)

  • 8/15 – BTC $37.5 Put (8/15) for $7.48 (-$748.04 debit) → Net: - $516.09

  • 8/15 – STO $37.5 Put (8/29) for $8.14 ($813.95 credit)

  • 8/29Assigned on $37.5 Put (shares put to you). Cost basis: $37.50 - credits collected


πŸ’‘ Net Result of the Put-Selling Cycle

  • I  collected several rounds of premium before assignment.

  • The largest loss was closing the 8/15 put for a debit, but it was partly offset by rolling forward into the 8/29 $37.5 put.

  • Net net, assignment locked you into 100 shares @ $37.50, reduced by all the prior credits.

If I total it up:

  • Total Credits = $1,624.75

  • Total Debits = $1,190.16

  • Net Premium Collected before Assignment = +$434.59

So my true cost basis on MSTX shares = $37.50 – $4.35 = $33.15/share.


πŸ’‘ Takeaway

Assignments aren’t setbacks — they’re opportunities. With MSTX, assignment at $37.50 turned into a new covered call at $38, already bringing in extra income. Add in the TSLL roll and puts, and today’s strategy was all about premium capture and smart positioning.
