* UPDATE Goldman Sachs (GS) - Closing the Weekly Trade

* UPDATE

This is a closing trade from the blog yesterday: Goldman Sachs (GS) - Weekly Trade; Selling Vol Expansion

GS is trading $151.33, down 1.7% with IV30™ up 5.5%. The LIVEVOL™ Pro Summary is below.



The Options Tab (updated) is included (click to enlarge):



Yesterday we analyzed:
Buy 1 GS Monthly 155 put for $3.30
Sell 2 GS Weekly 150 puts @ $0.49
Value = $2.32

Today we close:
Sell 1 GS Monthly 155 put @ $4.85
Buy 2 GS Weekly 150 puts for $0.96
Value = $2.93

Hypothetical return: $2.93 - $2.32 = $0.61 or 26%. I must admit, it turned out a bit lucky; the market tanking the next day.

This is trade analysis, not a recommendation.
