Recap: My exit order was filled yesterday at 6:56am PST, locking in a 10% return on this Bear Call Spread trade. As noted yesterday, if you haven't yet exited the trade, it looks like you can realize this trade's full profit potential by allowing the position to expire worthless by market close on Friday. If so, I'd recommend setting an upside stop for the position at $310.15.
