Paper Trade - TGT CC and CSP Closed

Since I'm now incorporating cash secured puts in my trading plan, and have real trade examples, there's no need to continue this paper trade, so I decided to close out it out on Friday. As you can see the results were virtually the same, and includes the dividend received on the CC position.
