Open Position -- MCD

I thought the drop on 6/22 was an overreaction, so I jumped in. I sold the call ITM call to give myself a little leeway, but if I pocket nearly $700 in two days (a 0.57% return), I'll be happy. I wouldn't mind writing more calls on the stock either, if I end up holding it.

As it turned out, I did get to write another call on it when my $0.03 limit price to buy back the existing call triggered. I'd be ecstatic to earn $1000 a week on the position. :) 

It dropped quite a bit because of Brexit. I almost bought more, but didn't have a lot of cash available. Like the rest of the market, it's been recovering well from the 2-day Brexit "panic".
