Closing Trade : AMZN

Stock / Symbol: Amazon.com / AMZN

Option Strategy: double calendar
Trade entry date / price: Oct 23 / $326
Price at this post: $365

Reasoning: The damn thing went up 39 (instead of the estimated 22), putting us on the wrong side of our short 350 call. We could wait and hope for AMZN to pullback 10 points but I'd rather not risk it going even higher.
