Week 5 Recap (7/21/25-7/25/25) – Calm Before the Storm: Letting Time Decay Do Its Thing

Realized Gains: $0

Week 5 was another quiet, controlled week. We made no new trades this week. Instead, we stayed patient and let our NVDA bear call spread work for us. As of Friday’s close, NVDA sat around $174, and we just need it to remain below $185 by September expiration to realize the full value of this position.

No realized gains yet, but time decay is on our side.


Current Position

  • Open Position: NVDA Bear Call Spread (Short $185 / Long $200 exp. Sept)
  • Strategy: Let theta (time decay) erode the value of the short calls while NVDA stays below our strike level.

Looking Ahead

Next week could bring some volatility:

  • Fed Meeting
  • Trade Deadlines
  • Potential macro catalysts across sectors

We’ll continue to monitor the market and only adjust if necessary. The goal remains the same — limit overtrading and let the money work.
