On Vacation
I start my vacation today and will be out of the country for the next 4 weeks. I've completed all of the adjustments I needed to make this week, so I don't have to worry about any of the June expiration positions. I pushed out all Interim Trade positions (i.e. those with short calls below my cost basis) out to July and about two strikes OTM. This should provide enough distance to avoid early assignment, unless of course these stock rise substantially.
So, now that my portfolio is on autopilot, I can ignore it for the next 4 weeks and enjoy my vacation. I'll return the weekend of June options expiration and will try to post my returns for June sometime that week or the following weekend.
