UNH CEO announced older folks were going to want more elective surgeries and UNH dumped and lost a neckline (technically a 2/2 down on the year chart). Also, to defend, I completely screwed up this trade. I rolled in TastyTrade to the monthly, which was a bad idea because I didn't notice the spreads were 10 dollars wide instead of 5, so I collected a credit but severely increased my risk. Got filled on a pop to get out a little better than max loss on the original spread.
I could have defended this better, but also, I was just on the bad side of statistics. This was up about 40% max profit recently and debated booking but didn't.
