You know when you buy an option how you pay money for the contract?
I was on the other side of that trade. So whatever premium some guy or market maker paid, I received as cash in exchange for being short the contract.
Right now, Im short two 23 C’s of FAZE that expire this Friday naked, meaning I don’t own shares in the underlying, FAZE.
I received 1.65 in premium for each contract, or $330 total
Now these contracts are trading for ~0.55 a piece as of Friday close
If I sold another contract Friday, I would have received $55 but my margin requirement would go up by ~$620.
