Trade Exit – QQQ Iron Condor

Stock / Symbol: Nasdaq ETF / QQQ
Strategy: Iron Condor
Trade entry date / price: 19 Jul 2021 / $353.35
Price at this post: $365

Update / Reasoning: On the last adjustment, I didn't get the breakeven fill I was going for. After the last adjustment, the position was down by $0.21 per contract. I'm just looking to get out of this position for a reasonable small loss and move on to the next trade. With QQQ finishing the day between 364 and 366, the position could be allowed to expire worthless. I'm going to attempt to close it out prior to market. If I'm unable to close out the position, and either the short call or put is ITM, I'll be forced to roll the position out to Friday, Jul 30th.
