February SPY Position closed

Demo-Trading:

BUY TO CLOSE 13 February SPY 137 CALL @0.08
SELL TO CLOSE 13 February SPY 139 CALL @0.00
Debit: 0.08

The initial trade had been entered for a CREDIT OF 0.19. Closing the spread for 0.08 debit, results in a profit of 0.11. In 13 contracts per leg = 13 * 0.11 * 100 = $143. See order execution below.

With the markets in rally today, SPY over 136 and one day left in the expiration cycle, the spread looks threatened. So, I decided to play it safe and sleep well.

This culminates the February trading cycle. With 3 little winners. Not the best month, not what I was hoping, but got to manage the unstoppable markets rally with success. I'm proud of that.
