Despite today's gains, and after closing at 9130 points, the monthly gains in the index is just 52 points more (or + 0,57%) than the previous month.

As this value is above the strike price of the sold option (which was 9000) I get to keep all the credit initially received (+ 146,35 €).

Considering this, since its inception, the Put Write Strategy is at -1,6%.

This trade worked fine in its original task and I was aiming to make more profit if the market kept rising. However, with only nine days left, I chose to close it near break even.
